A Little Topshop Make Up Haul

I've heard so many good things about Topshop make up but unfortunately, since I live in the middle of nowhere my Topshop is too small to stock it (I feel like I say something along those lines rather often...maybe it's time to move...).

A Mini Lip Haul: Sleek and MUA

Hello me dears!

Hope you all had a lovely NYE and 2012 is going well so far. I thought I'd start the new year with a trip to Superdrug. The only problem was that I had no more than just over £10 with which to ease my post-Christmas blues. Luckily there is some amazing budget make up out there!

The first thing I got was the Sleek Pout Polish in 'Frosting'

This is essentially a tinted lip balm. It contains jojoba, avocado, and sweet almond oil and is surprisingly moisturising. The colour is very sheer and very pretty:

I'm planning on getting this in the colour 'Scandal' which is a bright red. I think this would be a good way to experiment with brighter colours.

The next thing I stumbled across was the MUA stand. I honestly think I have a new make up love! Pretty much everything  is £1 apart from the eyeshadow palettes which are £4 and the eyeshadow trios at £2.50. Four lipsticks for £4? Yes please!

From left to right: Shades 12, 11, 2, 5

Both the formula and the colour payoff of these lipsticks is surprisingly good:

Shade 12

Shade 5

Shade 11

Shade 2

Again, the perfect way to experiment with colour without paying a fortune. My favourite shade is number 12. I think this will be perfect for summer (or if I need cheering up on a rainy day!) 

All in all I am very happy with my little purchases and would strongly advise anyone with a spare tenner and a need for lipstick to head down to Superdrug!
