I don't realise how much I spend, until I actually put it all together. I really need to get some new clothes but everytime I see make up I just put off buying it and buy that instead. I love reading hauls and watching them, so I thought I would do another as everyone likes to be nosey. I didn't actually purchase all of this together, I bought bits and bobs in stages which is what I tend to do rather than splash out all in one go. I should probably go on a spending ban, however I don't think I could stick to it.
The Bourjois 'Delice de Poudre' is one of the most famous Bourjois products alongside the healthy mix and little round pots. I have actually been putting off buying this product for so long, either because I really don't need four bronzers or there are things I wanted more. However during a 20% sale at Asos, I just grabbed this for £4.50 as it was a lot cheaper. So far I'm impressed, I must admit I do prefer my Nars 'Laguna' however as a cheaper alternative this works just perfectly fine. I wouldn't perhaps suggest this , if you are super pale as it may look a tag strange, this product does work better as a bronzer instead of a contour. I would also like to comment on the smell; I would say it was an artificial chocolate smell instead of a chocolate fragrance however either way it smells beautiful.

Mac's Vanilla Pigment. Do you ever find that white eyeshadows are just not pigmented enough, or not shimmery enough? Most of the time I have this problem, so when seeing so many people rave about the pigments and the lady in mac saying its one of her all time favourite products I just had to buy it. I know that this product use to be sold in a bigger pot with a lot more product, however after using this I realise its a perfect size. I'm sure this will last me a very long time with 4.5 grams of product.

1) Nars Turkish Delight. I'm really not a lipgloss person, however I absolutely adore this lipgloss. Its a perfect everyday colour which sits nicely on the lips its not at all sticky which I find is so important in a lip gloss. I can really see why its one of Nars best sellers. The colour is a pinky sorbet and the product comes a doe foot applicator which makes it super easy to apply. I really am so glad I made the jump and just bought this.

2) Collection Cream Puff in 'Cotton Candy' All I can say is wow wow wow. I wasn't in a hurry to try the soft matte lip creams from Nyx but after trying this I really want to get my hands on some. This shade is such a beautiful colour its almost a my lips but better however just a little bit more. I can't believe they are only three pounds and I really wish they had more shades as they only offer four. I can really tell this will be loved over the next couple of months for sure. Again this product comes with a doe foot applicator which makes it really easy to apply, again not sticky and overall lovely jubbly.

I actually bought this a very very long time ago, I think towards the end of August/ Beginning of September time. Now I'm a big big fan of the Real Techniques brushes, I plan to eventually collect them all however I like to pick one up here and there. So I decided to go for the 'shading brush' I really wanted a brush I could use to apply shadow all over the lid and to blend shades together which this brush is perfect for. Its exactly the right size and would be a good alternative for anyone dying to get their hands on the Mac 217.

And last but not least is the L'Oreal True Match, which is loved by the likes of Tanya Burr. I must admit I don't love it as much as my Ysl touche eclat foundation however its still amazing. I have the shade 'Ivory' which is a little light for me, however if I mix this with a darker foundation it works fine and gives off a lovely matte finish. The one great thing about this foundation is the variety of shades, there is a shade to match everybody essentially why its called 'true match'. The coverage is light however buildable, which is always a plus as I'm not one for a heavy coverage.
