ebay steal-No7 brush set

Hello lovelies!


Today I'm sharing with you all an amazing ebay steal that I won. I won the winning bid for these gorgeous eyeshadows brushes for only £3.00 and £1.50 p+p. Bargain!

The set contains a lovely wrap holder that is so sleek and compact it could easily fit in your handbag. Inside there are four very soft brushes. I've yet to use them but from the feel of them they look pretty good. A sturdy handle and no shedding so they are very good quality.

 

 

A handy step by step guide to the ultimate smokey eye and how to use the brushes to the best of their use. So altogether there is an eye shadow brush, an angled shader brush, a smudge brush and finally a liner brush.

I'm so pleased with this little gem and one of those ebay steals that you get at a low bid. I love ebay!
care to share any of your ebay steals lately?

Review of illamasqua pure pigment in Alluvium

I bought this in the cracken illamasqua sale for only £5 along with a few other bits and bobs. This is brilliant! I was attracted to this because I wanted to try a regal blue eyeshadow without looking like a throwback from the eighties. What caught my eye is that you could use this wet and dry that changes the intensity of the colour. In the pictures on my hand, the swatch on the left is the pure pigment wet and the swatch to the right is dry.

I think this is a beautiful shade of blue with flecks of gold that change and glimmer in the light. I have used this as a liner and it really makes the whites of my eyes appear brighter. It is also a welcome change from black liner and doesnt clash with a bold lipstick.

Has anybody else tried any illamasqua pure pigment?

Blog sale featuring L'oreal, Illamasqua, Armani, Rimmel and lots more!

I'm having a wee blog sale. Being a skint student still on the job hunt (which is so hard, I have been trying everywhere and to no avail) so i'm selling off a lot of my stuff. I have an ebay page too if you would like to have a nosey.

All payments are to be made by PayPal, so leave a comment below with what you would like or email me below at niamhg23@live.co.uk because that is my PayPal address.

I will send all items 2nd class Royal Mail p+p. I will try and add as many items in the one parcel to keep the postage down. This will cost £2.60. If you would like it recorded then this will have to be extra. The books will be £3.00 and again, I will try to fit everything into one parcel to keep costs down.

If you are buying just single jewellery items then this will cost 90p (except the bangles due to the size and weight of them) with any extra items at 20p each. Again, if there will be multiple items then I will have to put it into a parcel which will cost £2.60.

A lot of my items are new and unused. Those that have been used have only been used once or twice, the foundation has really only been swatched as they are the wrong shade for me and are basically full. Any questions please don't hesitate to ask.

I am open to an offers or a combined price for multiple items.

Enjoy xx
