My Priceline 40% off cosmetics haul!

Hey guys! Hope you are doing well :)
Today I'd thought I'd share my haul that I recently made from Priceline!


So last week on the 18th and 19th of November, Priceline was having a huge 40% off their makeup. This is a very exciting time for Aussie beauty junkies everywhere, myself included! I had my list ready to go the night before the sale, and I'm pretty pleased at how small it was! Normally I go a bit overboard, but this time I didnt and I am very proud. I did purchase a few things I probably didn't need... but you only live once ;)

This 40% off sale is a great time to stock up on brands that aren't normally reduced, like Models Prefer, or Essence. Most of my haul was actually from Models Prefer, because I wanted to try out their brushes and a few more of their Mineral Powders!


L-R: Luminous Glow, Radiant Bronze
  I really wanted to get my hands on these two Models Prefer Soft Touch Mineral Powders. Last time Priceline had a sale, I picked up the shade 'Soft Focus'. I loved it so much I just had to get the other ones. They're just a lovely all over face powder that give a bit of a sheen to the skin! I'm really looking forward to trying these other shades out! :)


 Next I picked up this awesome contouring/highighting kit, also from the brand Models Prefer. I'd heard lots of good reviews about this one! It looks exactly like the Australis Contour Palette, and of course the infamous Anastasia Beverly Hills Contour palette. I'm really excited to try this one out! I am currently obsessed with all things contour and highlighting. I do like my Australis one, but the contour colours are quite muddy looking on my skin. Hopefully this one will be better!


Can you tell I hauled a lot of Models Prefer? Haha. I purchased these cream contouring and highlighting sticks, because I wanted to try out cream contouring! I had orginally planned to pick up the new Australis Cream Contour Kit, but sadly it was all sold out at my local Priceline's. When I was browsing the Models Prefer display, I found these and I'm so glad I did! I scored these for $6 each, and I am so impressed with them! I've been using these guys everyday and I am really enjoying them alot! I use these firstly to sculpt my face where I want my contour to go, then blend it out using a beauty blender. I love how easy they are to blend! I normally go in with my powder contour after using these, but if I wanted a more natural effortless look, I'll just use these! So glad I picked up this duo, it's becoming one of my faves!


Definitely the most prettiest thing I hauled was this Physicians Formula Shimmer Strip in the shade Natural Nude. This can be used as an eyeshadow, or as a highlighter! I just think it's so gorgeous on the skin and I'm very happy I came home with it! I have a weakness for highlighters. They're so prettyyyyyyy.

Shades 45, 42
Normally I go a bit crazy and pick up so many lip products when Priceline have these sales, but this time only 3 lip products made their way into my basket. I'd seen these Rimmel Kate Moss lipsticks all over Instagram, and I just needed some in my life! I was deciding which shades to get, and I ended up choosing number 42 and 45. These colors looked more my style than the other shades they had to offer. I do love a good nude lipstick and I'm sure these colours will get a workout on my lips! I love no-fuss colours that I can carry around with me! Definite hand bag staples :)


Here are a few more bits I picked up! The Covergirl Ready Set Gorgeous foundation in the shade 210, Australis Velourlip in the shade 'Mum-Bai' and an Essence Brow gel!
The Covergirl foundation I have previously tried and loved, I just needed a darker shade because the one I had was too pale for me! Now I can wear this baby more often - it's such a great formula!
Australis recently launched some new shades for the Velourlip line, and I was drawn to this one! I love dark shades, and this one looks beautiful! I don't know how the formula is on this one yet, but I hope it isn't as drying as their other ones.
Finally I grabbed an Essence Make Me Brow, which is a tinted gel! I picked up the shade Dark brown, so this is perfect for finishing off and setting my brows after I've filled them in! I'll definitely let you guys know what I think about it! 



The last things I picked up at Priceline were these makeup brushes from Models Prefer! My only regret was not grabbing more! I've been using these brushes everyday and I love them! The quality is amazing and they don't shed at all! So happy with these brushes :)

Finally I picked up a Models Prefer Finale Setting Spray! I love setting sprays. I always use them after I've applied my makeup to make sure my makeup isn't going anywhere, to hydrate my skin, and to stop my makeup from looking too powdery. This setting spray gets a big thumbs up from me!


That's it for my haul guys, I hope you enjoyed it! I sure enjoyed buying all of it haha!
