First MAC product

Right up until a few months ago i never really bothered with beauty products, not sure what changed, maybe it's when i started reading blogs 


Anyway for my bf's sisters wedding i decided to splash out on Mac Mineralize Skin Finish in Semi Precious Rose Quartz - what a mouthful!


The first thing that drew me to it was how pretty it looks, the colours are stunning.





Pink, Middle, Combined

Unfortunately my camera doesn't capture the colours correctly, but i do really love it, i used the pink area as a blush and the middle as eyeshadow.
I do remember having to apply more during the evening, but as this was after a few drinks for all i know i didn't need the top up and came out looking like a clown for the rest of the evening :O


I have my eye on Illamasqua Gleam Cream and the Matte Primer, Has anyone used either of these before?
They are on ASOS for a few £££ cheaper and they are currently running a 20% off code on sale items, EXTRA20 for those who want it!

My first Glossy Box (July)

Just received my first Glossybox in the post
Quite impressed




 I opened this to smell it, not sure if like the smell, it seems quite strong. Will give this a shot and let you know. This is a full sized product priced at £19.99



 Prob my fav, love the smell


 Pleased with this as i need a SPF for my face, this is nice and lightweight (tested on my hand)


 I'm not too sure about this, I know it's Illamasqua but i don't use things like this, wouldn't really know what to do with it, also there is a space in the box, is there a brush or something missing? :s




Overall pleased with my first box, the whole point of this is to try things which i wouldn't normally try, which i plan to try all of these :)


What did you get in your box?
