Priceline Haul: Maybelline 50% Sale

As some of you may have seen in Priceline's "Famous Brands" catalogue, Maybelline is having 50% their whole range.

I decided to pick up a few items since I was quite impressed with the ones I bought in my previous Maybelline hauls.

  • I bought a back up of the Master Precise liquid liner - absolutely love this eyeliner!
  • The Fit Me! range. I've heard good things about these so I thought I'd finally try it
  • Superstay Foundation - I tried this years ago when it first came out, I liked it but didn't have the right shade. Loving  this one so far!
  • Color Tattoo Metal in Inked Pink (You all know how much I like my colour tattoos)
  • Eyestudio Quad in Copper Chic. Love the colours and pigmentation of this.
The sale is on until Monday 26th August if anyone wants to pick up a few items too! :)

Ebay 11 piece Synthetic Makeup Brush Set

Last month, I purchased a brush set from eBay. I was looking for some eyeshadow brushes, but I didn't want to spend a whole lot on them. I came across this set. They remind me of the Sigmax brushes & for 11 brushes, it only cost me $12.50. I wasn't expecting too much from them being so affordable.

I was so surprised when I received them, they are so soft! Comparable, or even softer then the Sigma & Real Techniques brushes.

They came in a calico bag

Each brush was individually wrapped in plastic




Eye Brushes:  Fair large dome brush.. which is kind of too big for your eyes & to small to use on your face. If anything, it would be good to use for undereye concealer, or to set it.
Blending brush
Angled Shadow Brush
Pencil Brush
Concealer Brush
Angled Liner Brush

You get 5 face brushes;
Short Handled Flat Top Kabuki
Short Handled Powder Brush
Blush Brush
Foundation Brush
Mini Handled Flat Top Kabuki Brush

Overall, I am very impressed with how soft these brushes are. Definitely a bargain, yet pretty decent quality!
The flat top brushes are a good dupe for the Sigma F80, What I also like is that the handles are short which make it easy to pop in your handbag.

If you are interested in purchasing these brushes, just type in "11 piece brush set" into the search bar on eBay. If you can't find them, let me know & I will give you the link :)
