London Haul - May 2009


I thought it was about time to show you my London haul. I hadn't got anything planned to buy this time, as when I went in April I had bought most of my wishlist. I hadn't expected to go back down to London within 6 months/1 year so I wasn't expecting to have any access to some of these brands. That's not to say that I didn't find something to spend my money on though!

Let's start with the MAC!


There are a couple of items from a CCO in Oxford that Jasmine had been kind enough to pick up for me.

-Lipstick "A Rose Romance"
-Pigment "Circa Plum"
-Mineralize Blush Duo "Moon River"
-Dazzleglass "Rags to Riches"
-Eye Shadow Quad "Pandemonium Eyes" from CCO
-Pigment "Cocomotion" from CCO

Of course, I couldn't resist stocking up on Sleek. It's fast becoming a favourite brand of mine. I've got a few Sleek focused entries planned, so keep a look out!


-Eye Shadow Palette "Jewels"
-Eye Shadow Palette "Storm"
-Eye Dust "Glory"
-Eye Dust "So Sleek"
-Sheer Cover Lipstick "Satin"
-High Shine Lipgloss "Champagne"
-Eye Drama Mascara

And now for everything else!


-Laura Mercier Shimmer Bloc "Gilded Garden Mosaic"
-Boots 17 Blusher "Bramble Frost"
-Prescriptives Custom Lipgloss
-Gosh Eye Shadow Base
-Bobbi Brown Gel Liner "Sapphire Shimmer"
-Benefit Creaseless Cream Shadow "Skinny Jeans"
-Urban Decay Liquid Liner "Minx"
-Urban Decay Liquid Liner "Ecstasy"

I bought a couple of long held wishlist items. I've wanted to try Laura Mercier for quite a while, but had always walked away from the counter. Hearing the price of the Shimmer Bloc reminded me why I hadn't tried any yet! I'm not really likely to buy more than the odd one or two items. Also, I'd wanted the two Sleek palettes for a while, so I'm thrilled with those.

No wonder my feet hurt for two days!

As always, if there's anything in particular you wish to see more photos or a review of then just leave me a comment.
