Huge winter makeup haul - Part 1!

Hey girls,
Hope you are all having a good week? It is absolutely freezing at the moment so what better day to be curled up in bed blogging! :) This weather is really making it feel so christmasy..my absolute favourite time of the year! :D I have been buying so much makeup lately to get prepared for winter! Most of the products I bought are from boots. They have some amazing deals on makeup at the moment so you guys should check them out and restock on a few items! I had kept my receipt to share all the prices with you but of course I lost it! So it's just going to be a rough estimate! :p I have more makeup on the way that I ordered online so I will do a second part to this haul when that arrives! Now let's get started :)...

I am constantly buying foundations! I love using different foundations every day so your makeup will always look somewhat different :) I had been eyeing up the 'Loreal True Match' foundations for quite some time and I finally decided to try it out! I got one in the shade 'ivory' ,which is my usual shade, and I got another one in the shade 'golden ivory' for going out. I wouldn't say these foundations are my absolute favourite but I have only tried them out once so far! I paid about €16 for each of these foundations. I also got my bestfriend to get me the 'MUA illuminating foundation' in England while she was there 2 weeks ago! I have wanted this foundation for so long and it cannot be bought here in Ireland! I have yet to try this out :) This foundation is about £3 in Superdrug.

Lip balms have never really been my thing and boots were having a '3 for 2' deal on all lip balms so I decided to pick up a few while I was in there. I have now a complete obsession with lip balms! I am constantly re-applying them throughout the day. I got the 'Vaseline rosy lips' , 'Vaseline paint the town' , the Nivea lip butter in the shade 'raspberry rose' and the raspberry Balmi lip balm! I much prefer the Balmi lip balms to the EOS! I find the EOS is a much thicker consistency and a lot harder to spread onto my lips. I am absolutely obsessed with applying the Nivea lip butter under my Lipstick. The flavour is amazing! I definatly need to purchase more flavours of these! All these lip balms were around €2-3 :) 

A person can never have too many eyeshadows in my book! ;) I picked up one of the Rimmel quads , which I love, in the shade 'Sun Safari'. There is really beautiful colours in this palette and it is perfect for beginners! This palette costs around €7. I was in a chemist the other day and I saw these gorgeous eyeshadows by Essence. I got a golden coloured one in the shade ' Skeye and sand' and a silver-brown coloured one in the shade 'party all night'. These eyeshadows were around €3 each.

I also decided to pick up a few of the '17 eyes' eyeshadows while I was in boots. I love these eyeshadows! They are so pigmented and tend to just glide on your eyes. Two of them cracked on me this time, which never happened before , but I probably must have hit them off something in the boots bag. I got these in the shade 'Walnut Pearl' , 'Rose Quartz' and 'Funfair' which is the most gorgeous eyeshadow colour I have ever seen! :) all these eyeshadows were around €5 each! 

I really needed new winter lipsticks this year! A lot of my lipsticks are very summery. I got this Loreal lipstick/ gloss in the shade ' 101'. This product cost about €10. I also got the 'Collection Cream Puffs' in the shade 'Fairy Cake' , 'Cotton Candy' and 'Angel Delight'! I have been loving the shade 'Angel Delight'! It is the perfect Mauve colour and I have been getting so many compliments on it! These cost around €4.49 each!

I wanted some new mascaras as a lot of mine are running low and drying out. I got the 'Maybelline Rocket mascara' which is my favourite mascara ever! This is about €12. I also got the 'Maybelline Great Lash mascara' in the shade 'Blackest Black'. This is about €11. I thought this will be really nice for going out as it is super pigmented! The last mascara I got was the 'Collection 5 in 1 mascara'. This is new out as far as I know! This mascara looked really interesting to me so I decided to buy it. It costs around €7.

Both of these blushes are from England! My best friend got them for me while she was there so I have no idea on prices for these. The first one is a Rimmel blush in the shade 'Live Pink' and the second one is the Sleek blush in the shade 'Rose Gold'! I was so excited to get this as you cannot get Sleek here in Ireland! This is a super gorgeous colour and it's really illuminating on the cheeks! Unfortunately it did crack on her flight home but it's still perfect to use! 

I am obsessed with under-eye concealers. I love how awake they make you look. I have so many different ones in my makeup collection at this stage. I got the 'Collection lasting perfection concealer' in the shade 'Fair'. This concealer was about €6. I also got the 'Maybelline Eraser eye concealer' in the shade 'Light'. This concealer was about €12.

The very last thing I bought in boots was 'The Soap and Glory Hand Food'. I am obsessed with hand sanitisers. I always have to keep one in my bag! The smell of this is absolutely amazing and I am constantly using it throughout the day! I can't get over how long-lasting the smell of this is. Definatly a new fav of mine! I went for the bigger bottle of this which was around €6

I hope you enjoyed reading this post! I will have the second part of this up hopefully next week depending on when my items get delivered! :) Talk to you all in my next post! 

Stay positive, Stay healthy , Stay fashionable!
