Brighton makeup haul | August 2015

 On a recent trip to Brighton - dedicated completely to shopping (and finding cute locations to take instagram pictures in), I picked up some makeup items that surprisingly weren't on my original make-up wish list. 


The first item you can see is the YSL rouge volupté in the shade number 3. This is a beautiful browny nude colour which i feel really compliments my pale skin tone rather than washing me out. 

The lipstick claims to be silky and I wouldn't disagree, it's sheer yet long lasting and doesn't feel heavy or sticky on the lips. 

I'm also completely obsessed with gold packaging, it looks so elegant and the lipstick feels quite heavy in comparison to cheaper lipsticks so you know the packaging is of a good quality. 

Down below is a swatch of the rouge volupté. 

My second item is the MAC mineralise skin finish in the colour 'Soft and Gentle'. I hadn't planned on buying this, but after swatching it in mac and freaking out over the amazing pigmentation it had with my friend, I knew I had to buy it. I'm yet to try this on my face but i'm very excited about using this. 
  
And finally..what would a trip to Mac be without leaving with a new lipstick? I literally find it physically impossible to leave a Mac store without a new lip product, which is great for me but adding it all up, it probably isn't the greatest for my bank account (whoops haha!) 

The shade of this lipstick is 'Créme De La Femme'. This is a beautiful pink with a hint of shimmer, this lipstick is a 'Frost' finish which I absolutely love, I have included a swatch down below.
