Yesterday I had to visit the university library, and lo and behold I ventured into Primarni on Northumberland street as it is the closest shop. sooo glad I did though as I picked up some amazing bargains:



All this make-up for a whopping £2.75! (yes you heard that right, two pounds and seventy five pence).

I absolutely love nothing more than a good bargain. I'm one of those people who just can't resist buying something just because it is massively reduced even when it is completely useless and/or pointless.

So to prove to myself that these weren't pointless purchases i've decided to do my make-up today using only these products (plus a thin line of black estee lauder kohl and no7 mascara):


Eyes - eye souffle in lemon.
LOVE this product, so soft and creamy felt like a dream to apply. Has a very subtle shimmer to it which accentuates the eyes perfectly for a natural daytime look. I actually bought the same product in a lilac shade which i'm extremely pleased about now because I'll definitely be using these loads.

Cheeks - blusher stick.
extremely pink and garish when first applied. seemed to blend ok but practically disappeared by the time I took the photo so constant re-applications would be necessary to maintain the look throughout the day.

Lips - tinted love.
This tint is actually for the cheeks but it works really well on my lips and the brush applicator is more suited to use on the lips. This is much like any other lip tint I've used but has worn off completely since eating.
I also used the highlighter from the double ended tinted love product on my cheek and brow bone which gives my skin a gorgeous sheen as it catches the light.

I originally used the gold eye gloss on my eyelids but it was extremely shiny and very sticky. it felt like I was putting PVA glue on my eyelids but being starved of the joy of peeling it off once dry:
