Hauly Moly.

The haul of all hauls, and I didn't even purchase these items myself! My mother had been overseas visiting my dad for the past few months, so I gave her a list of things to maybe pick up if she felt like, and I had no idea she'd get so much stuff off the list. Pretty much, if not all of, the list, in fact. And thus, I present, the haul to end all hauls! (For now... wait until Christmas rolls around, I love the Christmas gift sets, great for others and for myself). 

Lordy.
The line-up.
You'll notice the majority of products are by MAC, of course. I can't go past half-price MAC, I usually ask for one or two or five things from MAC whenever my mum is headed up the Americas. NARS also gets a mention, but I'm playing it safe on one of their products only. One of the famous Too Faced bronzers makes its way into my collection, as well as Urban Decay making an introduction. And who can go past freebies from Estee Lauder, they never let me down, and another newbie, we have Mirenesse.

The face products.
Too Faced Chocolate Soleil Medium/Deep Matte Bronzer
Love bronzer, this one smells like chocolate. Too Faced offers so many bronzers, but I heard this one you can't go past.

NARS Bronzing Powder in Casino
Hey, another bronzer. Don't judge. I love bronzer, this one is meant to be universal, too. Oh, and its NARS. Come on.

MAC Lightful skincare
Tiny cute jar samples of the lightful cleanser, essence, serum and cream. I was tempted to actually buy some of this range in Perth, but staved off due to cries from my wallet. So, its nice to get a test of them first. Apparently the essence/toner works wonders.

MAC Prep + Prime BB Beauty Balm Compact SPF 30 in Light Plus
Ah, MAC jumps on the bandwagon too with the BB creams. I specifically wanted the MAC one, not just because I love the brand, but also because it's in a compact form. Cream formulas really do work best for me, I think.

The eye products.
Urban Decay Naked Basics
Yay, my first Urban Decay palette. My SIL has like, five of them (not really, maybe more like three), but still. If she rates them, then I want to try it out too. I went for the Basics rather than the bigger Naked or Naked 2 due to hearing from youtubers that have all palettes would choose the Basics palette if they could only have one.

MAC Veluxe Pearlfusion in Greenluxe
I have this palette, but in the Smokeluxe, love the texture of the shadows, and the colours in Greenluxe are so very pretty, almost pastel, but with that gorgeous shimmer and depth.

Estee Lauder Pure Color Eyeshadow
A little GWP (as were the wash bags), I'm guessing when mum picked up something from her favourite brand. The packaging is really cute, not something that I'd really expect of Estee Lauder, the palette has four shades of greens and golden browns.

Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Pen in Universal Light
I am so excited to try this, I love the look when brow pens are used, the only unfortunate thing is that I've now dyed my hair completely black, and this pen may not match too well. I could always pass it onto my SIL I guess, but she has naturally gorgeous brows.

Estee Lauder Sumptuous mascara in Black (01)
Ah, a classic. I actually have two of these samples already, but I don't mind having more. It's a good mascara, lasts long, makes your lashes pop too. Again, this is from the GWP.

The lip products.
MAC lipsticks
Well, of course the lip products would turn out in the greatest numbers. Three lustres in Plink!, High Tea and Lovelorn; an amplified creme in Saint Germain; a mineralize rich lipstick in lush life; two sheen supreme lipglass tints in gwi-yo-mi and kiss kiss. Reviews and swatches will definitely be coming up, maybe a MAC lipstick collection part two?

Estee Lauder pure colour lipsticks
Two more freebies, from different GWP packs; one is in shade Crystal Baby, the other is Barely Nude. They're both creme finishes, Crystal Baby is a muted peachy colour, and barely nude is a neutral brown shade, which I quite love. They're both quite natural looking on the lips, but still a nice pigment.

Mirenesse Velvet Lip Moisture Shine
I don't remember exactly where my mum said she acquired this, but she got it as a freebie somewhere. It so far seems super sticky, but gosh, does it smell lovely, like cupcakes.


Aaand that's my big haul! Not too shabby at all, but geez, how many lipsticks can a girl have, right? Never enough. Never enough cosmetics.
