MAC & Physician's Formula Haul

So recently Catch Of the Day had a big MAC sale on. Usually when this happens their aren't many products that catch my eye as they are generally the less popular shades, however, this time I saw a few products I had been lusting over for a while so I snapped them up quick (or Mum did for me - I was at work).

Being the makeup junkie I am I also picked up a few of the new Physician's Formula products from Priceline stands over the weekend as well as a few random items.

MAC Omega Matte Eyeshadow

I bought Omega as I was in need of a matte brown colour for blending out my eyeshadow and this is perfect. It is a light colour so it's the perfect blending colour for those with pale skin.

MAC Nylon Frost Eyeshadow

Nylon is quite a popular shade and I can see why, its a great highlight or all over lid colour. This reminds me of an eyeshadow version of Nars Albatross highlight. 

MAC Hush Cream Colour Base

As you probably know by now I am a bit of a highlighter junkie. The pictures may make Hush seem more like a blush than a highlight colour but I can tell you it comes off a lot lighter than in the pan. It leaves a gorgeous pinky gold sheen on the cheekbones.

MAC Trace Gold Sheer Shimmertone Blush

Just as Hush looks like a blush but is a highlighter Trace Gold is a blush which looks like a bronzer! I'd heard Sarah Hawkinson on YouTube rave about this blush and always love her makeup so when I saw it on the website I snapped it up. Wore this today and its beautiful!

Physician's Formula Happy Booster Blushes Rose & Natural

These were all over YouTube a while back and as we are so far behind here in Oz these only just arrived in stores. They are so cute I could not resist picking them up. They come off quite light but are definitely buildable as you can see from the swatch. 

Physician's Formula Custom Eye Enhancing Gel CreamLiner for
Green Eyes - excuse the ripped packaging Tasha got to it!

Just like the blushes the gel cream liners have only just arrived as well. These are the creamiest gel eyeliners I have ever tried and the colours are absolutely gorgeous! They are also quite long-lasting as I discovered when trying to wash them off my arm and they wouldn't budge!


Savvy by DB Precision Pen Eyeliner in Blackest Black and
Models Prefer Metallic Black Eyeshadow Pencil

I was in need of a new liquid liner and the pen form is my favourite kind so decided to pick up a cheapie from Savvy by DB. The Models Prefer pencil I bought to use as a base for a smokey eye.

What have you guys hauled lately?? Any new products you are loving??

May Faves!!

Sorry its a few days late..I can't believe it is June already! This year has gone by so fast. So here they are the products I used to death in May :)


MAC Paint Pot in Rubenesque


I've been using this a lot as a base for my eyeshadow. When I use this my shadow doesn't crease and lasts all day. It also adds a pretty glow, although I don't think you could use this alone as it is quite sheer.

BYS Blush in Coral


I have been loving this blush for May, probably because I'm trying to hold onto summer for as long as possible. It's a great orangey-coral colour and my fave BYS blush.

Bourjois "Chocolate" Bronzer (Delice de Poudre) in 51


Ever since I bought this I have been using it like its going out of style. I think it's the smell, its so intoxicatingly sweet and yummy. It adds a nice glow to my face, although I don't think it would suit skin tones much darker than me as it is quite a light bronzer.

Bobbi Brown Gel Eyeliner in Black Ink


I LOVE this eyeliner! It produced a pretty much perfect winged eyeliner look for me the other night, which I have had so much trouble doing with other eyeliners. This is so easy to use, its super black and it will stay all night long. 

Sigma Large Shader E60 Brush



I never really appreciated this brush before I started using it regularly this month. It's great for when your being lazy and just want an all over kinda look. 

Bourjois Volumizer Mascara in 01 Noir


I showed this in my haul post recently and I've been using it everyday since. It adds great length and volume and you can make it look natural or dramatic.

BYS Lipstick in Sassy Salmon


This lipstick is a gorgeous barbie pink colour, even though the name is Sassy Salmon lol. It is super creamy and I love pairing it with a dark smokey eye. The BYS lippies are great value at only $3.95!

Cetaphil Moisturising Cream for Dry, Sensitive Skin


This moisturiser is so great! It is super moisturising and not greasy at all. You can really feel it hydrating your skin, which is great for these cold winter months. 

And the swatches......

L-R(no flash): Bobbi Brown Eyeliner, BYS lippie, BYS blush,
Bourjois Bronzer, MAC paint pot, Cetaphil moisturiser.

Have you tried any of these products? What did you think? What were your faves for May?
