my mac lipstick collection-bloggers do it better!

Mac lipsticks are one of those makeup products that most, if not all, beauty lovers have lusted after at some point. I find that if I'm looking for a particular colour/finish then mac is the brand to come to, though I do have to be careful as I don't have a mac store near me and ordering online can be a risk. Regardless of cautionary purchasing and the rise in price since my  first purchase (£13-£15..not a lot but why?) I've built a collection that I'm rather happy with.

Large Summer Haul-the emptying of a wishlist..

Over the past few weeks I've been buying quite a few things and more recently I've made a few bigger purchases, as a result I've managed to pretty much empty my wishlist and am now on a little spending ban, to be exact I'm on a spending ban until the 23rd June as that is when something rather exciting is happening, I'm getting so excited anyone would think christmas is round the corner and I can't wait to show you, it'll be on my instagram first if  you're interested ;)

for now, here's my first haul (I can't believe I haven't done one sooner!) it is collective, I didn't go and get this all in one go:

#bloggersdosunshinebetter-sunshine makeup and fruity nails :)

When I got the email with this weeks #bloggersdoitbetter challenge I was so excited, I've been more than ready for Summer since boxing day and now that it is finally here (in theory) I'm happy to be cracking out the brighter colours and have even been wearing more colourful makeup on my eyes.

My favourite Sunny eye look is created with the Sleek Del Mar palette, it's beautiful and I love using the orange and coral shades on my lid, the light brown blended into the crease and a few purples and blues on the lower lash line for a pop of colour to bring the blue in my eyes out. With a more neutral peachy blush and a pink lip it is a nice way for me to inject some colour into my looks without going over the top, though I am unsure if I should wear it to work or not..would it go with the bright yellow top/hoodie uniform?

I couldn't make a post about the sunshine without featuring these nails from Primark, I bought them for my holiday for £1 and they were surprisingly easy to apply, though I did clumsily manage to keep dropping them off the bar top on holiday while putting them on, they are adorable and I will hopefully have a review up soon but for a first time false nail wearer they were brilliant, my only complaint would be that I can't wear them to work!

how cute?!

That's it for now, I'm going to try and get better with these posts (and others) and have lots of ideas I need to work on, I hope you enjoyed this post and fingers crossed for more sunshine, even though it does result in us not having much to do at work, thanks for reading and if you have taken part in the challenge please leave the links below as I am really looking forward to reading these ones!
