News at Di drogstore - Rimmel, MaxFactor, Essie

Di has launched a campaign to promote the fact that they now offer or will offer soon, Rimmel, MaxFactor and Essie. Is this exciting news? Yes, to a degree, but I have to say, hail Kruidvat :-)))) Are Astor, Miss Sporty, Manhattan up for consideration?

Inno haul - Sunday shopping

It is ever such a strange feeling to be shopping on Sunday in Belgium :-). The crazy 4 days at Inno - 20 % off on all cosmetics - resulted in me re-purchasing my favourite foundation Revlon ColourStay 220 Natural Beige, Revlon ColourBurst lipstick in Carnation and Bourjois metallic eyeliner in 51 Noir effet miroir. I paid 26 EUR in total instead of 32,50 EUR :-)

Kruidvat haul - Essence Vampire's Love, Catrice Duo Blush

Just stopping by on my regular Saturday shopping :-) I got Essence Vampire's Love shimmer powder 2,99 EUR in 01 Lil' Vampire and two Catrice blushes in 030 Pink Grapefruit Shake and 020 Peach Sorbet, 3,50 EUR each. To be honest, I was not too blown away by the Vampire's Love collection, so I only got what took my fancy and it was only the shimmer powder - very subtle, not too shimmery and nicely blendable, definitely a must! And the two blushes, just to add some variation to my typical daily blush :-)
 

My second E.L.F. order

 
 
Long story short - I did not like the brushes when I first saw them, but I am completely in love with both of them now. Kabuki brush 5,80 EUR, blush brush 4 EUR. Absolutely recommend buying them both. Kabuki one is super soft and ideal for applying loose powder and the blush brush is cut and shaped to apply your blush in a perfect way. Absolutely recommend buying them both!
