Mac Haul - Haute & Naughty Lash, Lipsticks - Snob, St. Germain and Superior

Good afternoon :)
I have had a rather lacklustre week, so I thought I would cheer myself up with a little splurge in Mac. I saw their mascara named 'Haute and Naughty Lash' and was immediately in love with the packaging - pink and purple glittery lid anyone!? I also decided to try out some new pink lipsticks so I purchased Snob, St. Germain and Superior.

Haute & Naughty Lash is a two in one mascara, with either 'a naturally defined' or 'full-on dramatic'look. There is one brush, that gets either fully loaded with mascara, or stripped rather bare for the au naturel look. I previously did a video on the Rimmel 1 2 3 mascara which is similar, I ended up only using number 3 for the most dramatic look though. I have just used this mascara, and I already LOVE it. The brush is lovely to use and I had no problem with getting mascara all over my eye lid which happens with my Opulash as the wand is quite big. It gave a lovely natural look after a few coats. I used the full on effect on my other eye (don't worry I am not going out like this!) and its great - I love wearing false eyelashes and this is a great mascara to wear if you don't have time/don't have the inclination for falsies because you can create a really thick, dark look with it especially if you put a few coats on.

As for the lipsticks, I started with Superior. This is a 'sheer lavender pink with dazzle pink pearl' which I'm sure you'll agree sounds absolutely divine! This is a lovely shimmery pink which is quite subtle on the lips but when its caught in the light looks gorgeous as you can see the sparkles. Snob is a satin finish lipstick described as 'a ladylike mauve', and St. Germain is an amplified cream described as 'clean pastel pink'. I know these two are classics and don't need to much said about them, but I felt I needed to try them out as I never have before!

  3. Hi Charlotte! Of course, I use the camera on my iphone 4, I am in love with it, you can take such good pictures on it and get all different effects with the apps. I'd def recommend it, I'm not even using it as a phone really, just for the camera and ipod - also it takes amazing quality videos. And you can take good FOTD and OOTD with the camera as you can switch the camera to face you so you can see yourself on the screen when you're taking the pictures, and get a really good self timer that can take loads of photos in a burst! xxx

    Hi Adele thanks for your comment! The sparky one is gorge, I think it would be really nice over a brighter colour as well, I think I might have to experiment! I ordered the mascara online, I haven't seen it in the stores yet either! I am wearing Saint Germain right now and I LOVE IT! xx
