These have made me very poor... but very happy!!

Just a quick post, as I felt like blogging... as promised here are some photos of my recent purchases :)

I don't mean this to come across as a show-off "oh look what I have" post - the point is that I hardly ever buy anything frivolous so I'm still really happy about these!


My new phone - iPhone 3GS, LOVE it!


This was a cover that I got from eBay for something like £2

Not impressed with this cover. It was supposed to be baby pink, and plus it cracked the first time I fitted it (there is sellotape in the top left corner!)

                                               
Possibly the cutest packaging ever!


Self explanatory :) My ghd's!!

HOW did I ever live without them?! I didn't take a photo of the bits and pieces that came with them, as they're honestly not very interesting ;)


Coastal Scents 88 eyeshadow palette in Matte

Another eBay purchase, and a bit of an impulse buy to be honest. I'd seen these all over the YouTube makeup channels that I watch. It cost £20 with free P&P - a lot less than buying direct from the official US website. I thought that it was far more economical to buy 88 shadows this way than spend a FORTUNE buying separates.

This Palette was a lot smaller than I expected - the shadows are TINY. The American YouTubers kept comparing the shadows as being equivalent in size to a Dime coin... but being British and last visiting the US almost two years ago I had no idea how big this was...

On the upside, the colours are gorgeous. Some I don't think I will ever wear but hey, it's nice to have that choice! I don't think I will ever run out of these shadows either. They may be small, but they are also super pigmented and a little goes a very long way - which is all good :)

So that's basically it! I hope that you are all well and have a great weekend - I'm off to catch up with some blogs before bed! Goodnight!
