Mini Topshop Make up Haul

Sooo first things first, I finally got down to Topshop today to take look at their new make-up. I had a whole list of things I wanted but when I got there I was surprisingly good – maybe because I’d already bought tonnes of make-up elsewhere! (I’ll get to that later on!)

Here’s my hand after having been in the shop! I didn’t go too crazy because there was a shop lady tidying and cleaning all the make-up and I felt bad hovering around her!

(Left to right: Metallic Kohl in first light; Metallic Kohl in Moontide; Crayon in Sunshower; Crayon in Moonshine; Lipstick in Brighton Rock; Kohl in Thistle; Lip Stick in Rosa; Crayon in Sea; Kohl in Coal; the shiny pink patches are the lip polishes in Smoothie and Coral- the colour pay off didn’t seem great with them)

And this is what I ended up going for:

Kohl in Thistle, Metallic kohl in First Light and the Highlighter in Sunbeam

I have to say I am sooo happy with what I got! The highlighter and Thistle kohl had been on my wish list, but I had expected to want the crayon in Sunshower, when I saw it though I realized I had an Urban Decay pencil of exactly the same colour which can do the same job and to be honest can look a bit too garish on my pale skin! Maybe when I’ve got a bit of a tan! I did really like the Crayon in Sea and also the Lip Stick in Rosa, but not so much that I had to have them there and then, I’ll wait a while and if I still want them in a few weeks I’ll get them then – trying to be a little bit sensible!

And the swatches:

The highlighter is just lovely, and it looks so nice on the eyes as well, will try put up a face pic with it on soon (I’m looking all messy having been to work and then shopping! Long day!) It’s something I can tell I’m going to use a lot this summer!  I’m thinking maybe I’ll get another and have a little giveaway?!

I love the colour of Thistle, but I knew I would it’s just my kinda colour! I have a few eyeshadows this colour but not an eyeliner so I feel justified in buying it!

The real surprise is the First Light kohl, I hadn’t really looked at it on the website (their photo is bit pants!) but it really caught my eye when I swatched it. It’s the most beautiful silver-purple colour, very metallic and really pretty! My photo doesn’t do well to capture the purple/lilac tones in it and I cannot wait to wear it!

Something else that looked a lot nicer in real life than on the website is the eyeshadow trio sunstar, the red in it is just gorgeous and I may get it just for that!

I bought quite a lot of foundations as well today for some weird reason! But I put the rest of what I bought in another post because my internet is going funny on me!
