January DRUGSTORE Makeup Haul!

Hello everyone!

This Sunday, I am going to be hauling some makeup items I picked up in the last month. This is not really a new at the drugstore sort of thing, because in Australia, all the drugstore makeup places are not selling any of the new releases yet, so I have just been picking out makeup that people on YouTube and Blogs talk highly of. I would just like to say, thankyou to everyone who has ever read my blog, I am really enjoying blogging and have been planning and drafting so many exciting blogs for this year. I would really LOVE to know in the comments what sort of blog post you would like to see me do and are interested in, as I have some planned, but could easily use some more ides or inspiration. I am going to get hauling, but I jut wanted to let you know that I helpfully included links to all the products mentioned, if you just click the name of the product it will take you right to its website!

I am going to begin with Maybelline, as it is my favourite drugstore brand. The 24hr Colour Tattoo crème eye shadows are talked about so much in the beauty community, but I was not going to spend $11 per individual pot, so I waited when they were on sale, and picked up all the nude shades available. The 4 I own are 70 Barely Branded, 25 Bad to the Bronze,  45 Bold Gold and 35 Tough as Taupe. A review and better swatch of these plus any more I buy will be going up my blog in the next few months so look out for that! The other Maybelline products I picked up were the Colour Drama lipstick pencils. I really wanted to get the Nude Perfection shade, but everywhere I went it was not available, so I ended up getting the shade 140 Minimalist, 310 Berry Much and 420 In with Coral. So far, I have really been enjoying them and all the shades.
A palette I picked up from Priceline is the AC on Tour Contouring and Highlighting kit for light complexion. This includes 3 highlights and 3 contour/bronzer shades. I am planning to do a review on this palette in the future, so look forward to that.
Revlon sells some really nice Lip butters, and I picked these up from Trade Secret, for a really discounted price (Trade Secret does not have online shopping) . I got the shades 015 Tutti Frutti and 055 Cupcake. Again, I am planning on a separate swatch and review post with my other colours of this product. Kmart in Australia supplies a cheap makeup brand called OXX (not available on their website), and I got my hands on 4 of the lipsticks. I would definitely recommend using a lip brush for the application as it can come across streaky, but the colours are really nice, and for $2 its alright.
A brand I recently discovered in my town is called W7 (could not find these on any website, I just got them from Chemist Warehouse). I have heard of this overseas, but never realised it was available here. I got hold of two of the baked eye shadows, I am yet to use these but I am looking forward to try them out. The two shades I grabbed was Café Latte (the lighter shade) and Gold Dust (the darker one).
The last product is a blush by Elf and it is apart of the studio line. The shade is Twinkle pink and it is just a really nice blush. I am yet to build a opinion on this, but you will see if it is in a further favourites post if it is good.
So that were the makeup products I purchased in the last month. I have been trying to save my money to but more higher end makeup, as well as some online purchases, so if you want to see what is on my wish list, let me know in the comments. I hope you enjoyed reading this Sunday and I will be seeing you in a week!
