Another Little Drugstore Haul

 Hey there! Let's face it, it was inevitable this was going to happen, I even foreshadowed it in my previous haul. The sales were just too good for me to resist and before I knew it I found myself back through the Chemist Warehouse doors trying to juggle these products to the counter- did I mention it was 50% off all cosmetics?

Unfortunately somehow I've already managed to misplace the receipt so unfortunately I won't be able to give you the prices exactly, but I'll give you the rough amount. 



Revlon Colorstay Nail Polish in 300 ‘ Bare Bones’ – the name give a pretty good indication of the colour, it is a very light mushroom/off white colour. I've been on the hunt for a colour like this for quite sometime and when Estée aka Essiebutton (I'm her biggest fan) mentioned this in one of her videos a just knew I had to get it! Sale Price: AU$8-ish

Maybelline Baby Lips in Cherry Velvet - this was definitely an impulse buy, but I've used these lip balms before and really liked it. Sale Price: AU$1.50-ish


Maybelline Color Tattoo in 05 Too Cool- these crème eye shadows/bases are very versatile and really do stay put all day (maybe not 24hrs as it claim but still...) I own a couple others but I wanted one that I can used on more of a regular basis, and this icy white could definitely be used as a brow bone highlight or as a bases for an array of eye shadows. Sale Price AU$4-ish

Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream Lip Protectant- I will just tell you right now that the Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream original is a miracle worker and I do often used it on my chapped lips when they are at their worst. This little tin will be more convenient for when I'm out and about so I'm sure I'll get plenty of use of it. Sale Price AU$5.00 



Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain in Lovesick- I've heard plenty of people recommend these little beauties so I thought I should just give them a try. Sale Price AU$8-ish




Maybelline Dream LUMItouch Highlighting Concealer in 002 Nude- I've been looking for something to brighten up my under eye area and Zoe aka Zoella gave this little product a lot of praise, so I'll test it out and hopefully it does the job! Sale Price AU$4-ish

Revlon Colorstay Liquid Eye Pen in 01 Blackest Black- This was the most expensive product of this shopping trip but I have been meaning to try out some new liquid eyeliners, I wanted one with a greater staying power and with a bit more precision. This one seems to tick all the boxes and I am excited to try it out. Sale Price AU$15-ish

A Little Drugstore Haul

Hey there! I just did a little bit of shopping the other day and discovered that the Chemist Warehouse (to my fellow Australians, it’s the big yellow chemist franchise) was having a 50% all cosmetics sale. Considering that drugstore makeup is getting to be almost as expensive as some high-end brands I thought I had better take this opportunity and pick up a few bits. The sale is still on so I am thinking I may need to go back and grab a few more products! Anywho, here are the few items that I did purchase on shopping trip number one…
Revlon Nail Polish in 211‘Charming’ – this is a very opaque pale purple/lavender nail polish which I had had my eye on for quite some time.
                RRP: AU$13.95   SALE: $6.97  
 
Rimmel Kate Moss Lipsticks in shades (from left to right)
                 20- A bright fuchsia
                 12- An orange coral
                 16- A pinky/apricot coral
 I own other Rimmel lipsticks from this line and really liked them. They are very pigmented and have great lasting power so I couldn’t resist buying some more. Side Note: Last night I wore a mixture of no. 12 and no. 16 to get the perfect coral! 
             RRP: AU$ 11.95   SALE: $5.97
 
Maybelline One By One Mascara- I bought this mainly as a backup for when my current mascara runs out, I have heard good things about this mascara though and it claims to create ‘clump-free big volume’.
RRP: AU$19.25   SALE: $9.63
 
Rimmel Exaggerate Waterproof  Eye Definer in 26 Nior- I have a confession; I haven’t had a black pencil liner in my collection for about three years now, so I thought it was time to buy one. I own the liquid eyeliner from the Exaggerate line which I am quite a fan of so I thought why not grab the pencil version too!
RRP: AU$12.50   SALE $6.25
Side Note: I have changed my mind (sorry) about the whole review series. Instead of boring you all with four foundation reviews in a row, I think I will just mix it up a bit and might do for example a mascara review and a foundation review in one week and that is all. That way I can still post other random posts such as hauls like this too. Have a lovely weekend!
