A small but expensive haul this week – I got the Urban Decay 15 year anniversary palette, Benefit Bluffdust and Benefit ‘Breakup Rumor’ lipstick (reduced to £9.10 as it is being discontinued), Soap & Glory shower gel and body scrub and Diesel Loverdose EDP (smells to me like a softer version of Lolita Lempicka, with the licquorice)

I have no plans for the weekend, other than trying to get some sleep

I went to the Mac Pro Store yesterday and got three paint pots from the Posh Paradise Collection. Of the 8 colors I only got Treasure Hunt, Nubile and Genuine Treasure. I might go back for Hyperviolet and Imaginary. I want to swatch Idyllic again, but am on the fence about that one. All 8 colors are gorgeous, but there are a few that I don’t think that I would use often enough to justify buying.

Haul: Oh man I hauled wayyy too much MAC this week. One fluidline, a liquid eyeliner, 5 MAC Lippies, 5 Lipglasses and 5 eyeshadows.
Luckily 3 lipglasses and 4 of the eyeshadows were from CCO. Yay! I even got 3 shadows from the Venomous Villains collection so that made my haul week for sure! I’m cutting myself off MAC for a while. My bank account needs room to breathe. Shew!
I also made a modest and completely necessary purchase of one Jack Black lip balm in Lemon Chamomile. Yum!

Weekend Plans: Baby shower tomorrow and shopping for bridesmaid dress accessories on Sunday. Two separate friends, two very special and exciting occasions 🙂

Last lipstick/gloss I wore: MAC Sheer Plum lipstick with Social Light lipglass on the top.
