Holiday Haul no.3 - LIP PRODUCTS

Anyone excited for some lipstick swag? I am!

Stocking 4 the Summer!

Summer is here with its signature scorching temperatures and I was all out of UV protection. Here's a few items that I recently picked up, including a sunscreen spray, an orange lipstick, and similar useless stuff a person doesn't really need for their survival... Typical.

Lipstick Swatches! Rimmel, Oriflame, MUA, Catrice, Bell, Miss Sporty!

A year ago, I hardly felt like touching lipsticks at all. I had a few but I didn't feel like I want to wear them on a daily basis. Nowadays, I got used to expressing my mood through lipsticks, changing my lip colour as I go, sometimes three-four times a day. No wonder I ended up carrying some 10+ colours in my handbag wherever I go. Who knows how much a girl's mood can swing?

At school I am barbie pink, on my way to Prague I was rich fuchsia, traveling home I was timeless matte red. One might wonder what sort of mood would it need to be for me to wear some of these...

!!!Bear in mind that the colours as they appear in the photo can be somewhat different from the reality. I did my best but I think some of them came out lighter than they are once applied to the lips!!!

Rimmel -25% ?! Whaa!

-25% on all things Rimmel plus my -10% coupon. Saves a ton.

Anyway, I've been noticing some pinkish makeup tones on my face lately and it really doesn't match my neck so I started looking for something more on the yellow side. I was considering buying "darker" shades for the summer but turns out anything less than "lightest" makes my skin look like I am wearing mud on my face. 

Therefore... 100 (Ivory) it is for Wake Me Up and Light for the new Rimmel 9 in 1 Matte BB Cream. Garnier, I still love you... but Rimmel costs half your price.

The lipstick by Kate is 106 and the accidentally over-saturated Stay Matte powder is a boring old 001 Translucent. (The culprit of the pinkish tones was most likely my old Stay Matte powder 003 Peach Glow which looked perfectly "light" inside the store.)

Exams Afterparty at Nameless Drugstore Co.

All exams done, I'm back home for a bit before I need to travel again to take care of some more uni-related stuff. Meanwhile, I am visiting local drugstores that are about as fun as ye ol' dirty socks. Still, I managed to dig out some interesting goodies.

Gliss Kur Million Gloss Shampoo - still loving the decor on the back of this tube. TESCO 2.99 €
RYOR Aknestop peel off mask - currently on my face. I checked 6 Czech drugstores for this one, nothing. It magically showed up at some nameless drugstores here my hometown in Slovakia.
EDIT: No longer on my face. Also, there is no hairs left on my face either. Not to self - remove slowly, this mask hurts.
Miss Sporty OHH TAN SO FINE Bronzing Powder - because my only existing bronzer has too many sparkles and is too orangey for contouring.
Bell Lipstick (13) - some Polish company I've never heard about but they had a stylish makeup stand. iTake.
Rimmel Lasting Finish by Kate Lipstick (04) - nameless drugstore had this in their sale basket. Not sure why, it's perfectly untouched. Though not exactly a summer colour.

And lastly - one irresistibly cute pen with frogs, some grape-sugar energy candy, and 2 discount coupons (nameless drugstore is nameless...but kinda cool).

Chanel, Lancôme - I touched it, it's something.

To celebrate my derpensdom, I made a quick round at Fann Parfumerie and swatched poshy lipsticks all over my hand. I  hereby officially proclaim myself the Queen of Paupers. I will never enter that shop again. See you in my dreams, perfect matte lipsticks!

I megustaed the ones I liked the most. Ignore the two nameless lip butters in the top row. I'm quite sure one of them was Burjois. The other one is no cheap shit either despite its sorry excuse of a pigmentation.

Everyday School Essentials

Having a number of available drugstores to visit between lectures sure is convenient. Unless your timetable looks like Swiss cheese and you end up visiting each one of them WAYYY too often. I am pretty sure they must be questioning my sanity by now...

Here´s some stuff I obtained on my way to school.
(which normally takes me about three minutes, lol)

Complimentary Drugstore Coffee

Drugstore Discount Coupons

A pack of Fornetti  (sold right next to a drugstore)

The picture below is another side-effect of visiting said drugstores.

Stuff from the depths of our handbags (lipsticks only).The upper row belongs to my classmate, the lower one is my own:

Astor Soft Sensation 730

Miss Sporty Perfect Color 032 New Age

Catrice Ultimate Colour 320 Kiss Kiss Hibiscus

Essence 13 Love Me

Essence 08 Colour Crush

Spring ready!

Spring is here and the sun is showing a lot more often now, so I started feeling like I should show some more  joyful colours as well. Here´s a few fun items that I got for the "occasion".
