A Collective Haul - Fashion & Beauty | July 2015


Hello Lovlies! Welcome back to Sense Of Beauty! Today's blogpost will include a haul! I have been purchasing these bits since the beginning of July! I really hope you enjoy today's blogpost! Keep an eye out in upcoming blogposts and videos for a feature of some products! :)

Let's get started with fashion! :)



Unfortunately, fashion has taken a back seat in terms of purchasing it. I have only one fashion piece that I've recently purchased. 

I picked up these gorgeous white ripped skinny jeans in TK Maxx for only €19.99! I have been on the hunt for a pair of white ripped skinnys. I picked up the size 8 in these and they fit perfectly! Fingers crossed, they don't stretch too much with wear!

Here's a closer look at the jeans:




Now, it's onto my favourite part -MAKEUP!! :D



I have to admit, it is very difficult to not purchase makeup when you are surrounded by it at work. So, I caved and bought some bits :P


Revitale Deeply Absorbent Nose Strips
Was: €4.99
Now: €1.50
Buy here

Blackheads can be an ABSOLUTE pain sometimes! I heard nose strips similar to these ones were meant to be great at removing them. At €1.50, I wanted to give them a go! 6 Nose Strips come in each pack. This might be a nice purchase for anyone planning on having a girly night-in!










W7 In The City Natural Nudes Eyeshadow Palette
Price: €4
Buy here

I purchased the "In The Mood" version of this and I LOVED it! I wanted to give this one a go, especially as it was only €4! 

If you would like to see my previous haul which included this palette, click here!

If you would like to see a tutorial using the W7 "In The Mood" palette, click here!




Here's the video!



Catrice Liquid Metal Eyeshadow 
Shade: 10 What do you sea?
Was: €4.52
Now: €2.26 (50% off)

I purchased a pair of heels in Penneys recently that reminded me of mermaids. I wanted to wear them out and thought that this eyeshadow would be perfect to pair with them! 

If you would like to see the Penneys Heels, click here!





Maybelline Color Tattoo
Shade: Permanent Taupe
Price: €7.49

These remind me of the MAC paint pots and I had my eye on this one for ages! I have another one of these in the shade 'On and On Bronze'. They are great for eyeshadow bases but for cream eyeshadows also. They are very long lasting so perfect for anyone that works a long day! I have a Makeup Tutorial planned for this color tattoo so keep an eye out on my youtube channel!





If you would like to see my video using the 'On and On Bronze' color tattoo, check out this video!




W7 Bronzer Matt Compact
Shade: Matt
Price: €2.50
Buy here

The brand W7 has become one of my new favourite loves! I have been loving all their products recently. This bronzer received a lot of good feedback and I wanted to give it a go. This bronzer is very pigmented and you really only need the tiniest amount on your brush. It is perfect for contouring. This bronzer is also available in a Shimmer version too, if you like to check that out, click here!




Essence All Aboutt Matt Compact Powder
Price: €3.79

I have been using the Essence I <3 Nude Eyeshadow in 01 Vanilla Sugar to set my under eye concealer and I've been loving it! But, I wanted to try some new products to set my under eye concealer. I wanted to give this particular one a try because it has no colour. 







Catrice Cosmetics Illuminating Highlighter Pen
Price: €4.49

Drugstore/Pharmacy highlighters can be hard to find. I've been on the look out for a particular Essence one but it's been unavailable recently. When I spotted this, I had to get it! It's a new release and it's so nice! Very easy to apply and has great pigmentation. 






Essence Super Fine Eyeliner Pen
Shade: 01 Deep Black
Price: €3.09

Finding a good quality eyeliner pen can be difficult in drugstores/pharmacies. Essence offer a good selection of eyeliners, I had a quick look through their selection and decided to pick this one up. So far, I like it. I would recommend to store this eyeliner pen upside down, so the liquid is directed towards the applicator. If I use it for long periods of time, I find it starts to dry out.





W7 Absolute Lashes Mascara
Price: €3.50
Buy here

This mascara reminds me of the Benefit They're Real Mascara and for the price of €3.50, I had to give it a shot. This mascara works really well at lengthening your lashes but not so much as volumising your lashes. The packaging and the mascara wand are very similar to the Benefit mascara.






Stila Stay All Day Liquid Lipstick
Shade: 06 Carina
Price: €16

Liquid lipsticks have become a huge sensation in the beauty market. They are available from affordable brands to the more luxurious brands. For anyone who works or has a special occasion, these are perfect for you. They dry to a matte finish and literally stay on ALL DAY! I love this coral colour for spring and summer. 






If you would like to see this Liquid Lipstick in action, check out this video here!




Catrice Cosmetics Prime and Fine Eyeshadow Base
Price: €3.99

As most of you may know, I do love my Essence I <3 Stage Eyeshadow Base. Sometimes, it's nice to venture out and try new products. I spotted this and thought I'd give it a try! I am enjoying this product so far!






Essence Kajal Pencil
Shade: 08 Teddy

Black eyeliner can sometimes be too harsh for an eye look. I opted for this brown eyeliner by Essence and I'm pleasantly surprised by it's quality! I tried it in my Summer Bliss Makeup Tutorial and I loved it.

Catrice Long Lasting Waterproof Eyeliner
Shade: 090 Petrol And The Wolf

Another eyeliner! The colour of this eyeliner is gorgeous! I really like the lasting power of this eyeliner. If you would like to see this eyeliner in action, check out the video I linked above!








W7 Kiss Proof Lipstick
Shade: Cha Cha
Price: €2.50

Nude Lips are HUGE right now! What's another nude lippie to the collection?! ;) I am yet to use this, but as soon as I do, I will definitely let you know how I got on!










Essence Lipstick
Shade: 05 Cool Nude
Price: €2.89

UH-OH - another nude lippie! ;) This collection of Essence lipsticks are very popular at the moment so I really wanted to give it a go! I really like this lipstick. 











When I went to Enniskillen around Christmas time, I bought a nail polish in PoundLand. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality and lasting power. 

If you would like to check out my Enniskillen haul, click here!

I wanted to give some other products from the same line. Keep reading to find out what I purchased ;)

Makeup Gallery Colour Story Eyeshadow
Shade: 9 - Cappuccino
Price: €1.49

One cannot have enough matte brown eyeshadows in their collection. I spotted this eyeshadow and thought it would be perfect to be used as a transition shade. I am very impressed with the pigmentation of this eyeshadow! Definitely worth a look! :)







Makeup Gallery Pro Liquid Eyeliner
Shade: 4 - Brown
Price: €1.49

I have never owned a Brown Liquid Eyeliner before and didn't know how well I would like it on. I wanted to buy this one first so I could try it before I bought a more expensive brown eyeliner. I really really like this liquid eyeliner! I applied it before going to Belfast and it lasted the WHOLE day!







That's the end of this haul!
I really hope you enjoyed it! :D
