There's nothing like a good makeup haul for a 'pick me up'. This week has been quite a busy challenging tiring week that I'm glad to have a breather this weekend. Super excited about my new finds from online shopping. Here's what I got:

Maybelline Brow Pomade Deep Dark, By Terry Carnal Attraction Lipstick, Charlotte Tilbury Amber Haze Colour Chameleon, Lush Popcorn Lip Scrub, L'oreal Telescopic Mascara |
L'Oréal Paris Telescopic Mascara Extra Black
I'm no stranger to L'oreal mascaras. For one I am a huge fan of the LOréal Paris Double Extension Renewal Serum Inside Mascara. However I've just come to realise I havent tried L'oreal Telescopic at all so I picked this up. I was utterly surprised by the teenie tiny brush and even more so when it instantly thickens and lengthens the lashes. I recommend this for small Asian lashes as the wand enables precision.

Picked this up to flatter my dark brown eyes and I must say it does deliver. It is a golden bronze shade, a bit like MAC Amber Lights Eyeshadow but in longwearing stick form. You can apply it all over the lid like for an eyeshadow look but I prefer simply lining my upper lash line. This is the third addition to my CT Colour Chameleon stash. I wonder which will be the fourth?
This is my first lipstick from By Terry (they are so expensive that they hurt my purse). I picked this one up in the recent Space NK sale and I hope you do to. This gorgeous shade is a pink berry, similar to MAC Rebel Lipstick. The formula is a lot more luxurious however. It glides on easily on the lips and stays. You could wear it two ways - with a matching lip pencil, or alone smudged out with a finger to create a stained berry lip. I often do the latter. Love it!
Maybelline Eyestudio Brow Drama Pomade CrayonIt's incredibly difficult to find a good eyebrow pencil for dark eyebrows. Many lean too warm and make the brows a touch gingery. The ideal shade for dark brown eyebrows would be one that leans grey - and I must say I'm content with the shade 'Deep Brown' I have here by Maybelline, although it could be even more grey. I love the chubby pencil and how its easy to use. Its a little pigmented so small feathery strokes go a long way.
Flaky lips call for a lil scrubbing and I've turned to no other but Lush's offering. I was tossing between Popcorn and Mint Chocolate but the former won due to both jojoba oil and coconut oil for extra moisturisation. Apply lip balm straight after use for a juicy pout.
