3 Package Kind Of Saturday

Hello my lovely's this is a long post so grab a cuppa or if your like me a glass of vimto!

On Saturday the postman woke me at 9 am. I was annoyed as it was the first day in 2 weeks I could have have a lie in. So I sent the hubby down ;) he came upstairs with 3 parcels. So it wasn't so bad!

One was just an iPad cover for my glitter decorated business,

pink iPad case

The second was my prize from Josie Cross, I entered her giveaway on her blog josielcross.blogspot.co.uk make sure you check out her blog!

Prizes

I won a mac lipstick and some lush goodies, I chose heroine lipstick and Josie sent me a bunny bubble bar and catastrophe cosmetic fresh face mask.
catastrophe cosmetic fresh face mask

Catastrophe cosmetic fresh face mask
Lush website says
'A calming and moisturising fresh face mask packed with blueberries, calamine and chamomile, rose, and almond oils to soothe and soften the skin.
Smoothe a generous layer of this mask onto cleansed skin and leave for 10 to 15 minutes and let the ingredients get to work deeply cleansing and calming skin down, before washing off gently with warm water.'

This mask smells lovely very fresh and fruity, slightly sweet but naturally sweet. I really picked up on the smell of rose. This mask is designed to help clear spots while soothing the skin at the same time. As it is a fresh mask you keep it in the fridge. When you first put it on it can be a shock to the system but very refreshing at the same time. When I first used this I found it quite drying but for my oily skin I love it to feel tight and dry! I left the mask on for 15 mins and by the end the mask had gone all hard so I made lots of stupid faces in the mirror and watched it all crack and crumble off! Does anyone else do this when they have a face mask or is it just me?
I used a face cloth and warm water to remove the residue and my skin felt lovely. It had a really nice healthy glow and felt really smooth! So far loving this mask :)

Bunny bubble bar

Bunny bubble bar
Lush website says
'Follow this white rabbit to the bathroom for sweetly scented, skin softening bubbles. With the comforting smell of Fair Trade vanilla absolute, and filled with blue cornflowers to float through the water and surround you in the bath.
Inspired by the White Rabbit in Alice in Wonderland, this little fellow is full of rich oils and butters to leave your skin soft and conditioned. Sharing the same fragrance as our Creamy Candy bubble bar, this limited edition Bunny is as wonderful on the inside as he looks on the outside, filled with skin softening shea butter and coconut oil, with little candy eyes and tail.'

I am not going to lie this smells so sweet I want to eat it :-/ I have a bit of a problem with things that smell amazing I just want to put them in my mouth or at least lick them! (I know I am starting to sound extremely weird sorry) I haven't used this yet but I know I am going to love it. It is so cute I feel bad using it so I am going to go make sure I buy more of these :)

Mac lipstick in heroine

Mac lipstick in heroine
I am so glad mac have added this to there permanent line it's such a beautiful vibrant colour, it's such a nice purple and lasts so well I easily get 5+ hours out of this colour. It is a matte but it is more like a satin to apply but dries matte when set.

The third was a welcome pack from sigma beauty!

I applied for there pro program a little while ago and got a email saying my application was accepted but I am yet to use my discount. I am saving for a full new set of brushes but with saving for a new house, brakes for the car and we are going to Florida in July, none essentials items are getting pushed back.


When I got the box it was all crushed and open on either end! I thought what ever was in there was sure to be gone, but I was very lucky the package had wedged its self so it hadn't come out! First thing I noticed was my new pro partners card, then I opened the package :) there was so much inside!



I got:
2 brushes a eyeliner brush E05 and a blending brush E25 these brushes are so soft you will want to buy all of the brushes, good plan sigma reeling us in with samples like this!


A eye shadow pallet with 3 beautiful colours inside


Samples of eye brow powders, there is 4 duos in light, auburn, medium and dark!
Samples of 10 eye shadows, these are so pigmented! Can't wait to try out a few looks with these!
