At the moment, Boots and Superdrug both have 3 for 2 offers on, or they did last week anyway! I obviously had to take advantage of this and spend some money. I've been wanting to pick up these items for a while but I've been avoiding all shops to prevent myself from spending money, but let's admit it. I'm pretty much failing that as my bank balance is £3.42 at the moment. Oh well, who needs money when you have makeup?

Top: Essential Shimmers Bottom: Ionic 1 |
First off I picked up two of the Makeup Revolution palettes in Superdrug. I originally wanted all three of the Ionic palettes, but they only had the Ionic 1 in stock! So I picked up the Ionic 1 and the Essential Shimmers palettes. £4 for 12 shades is such a bargain, I just wish my local Superdrug had more of them in stock so I could've picked up a few more.

L-R Creamy Beige Metallic Pomegranate Permanent Taupe |
I have been loving Maybelline Colour Tattoos over the past few months, but it was definitely time to pick up some new shades! I wanted some more autumnal colours, as the shades I have are all quite light and shimmery summer colours. I picked up one shimmery shade and two matte shades; Creamy Beige, a matte 'leather effect' beige, Metallic Pomegranate, a gorgeous purpley pink shade and Permanent Taupe; a matte taupe brown shade. I cannot wait to start using these properly, as you can see I've already used the middle shade, I couldn't resist. I'm a bad blogger I know!

L'oreal Pure Reds - Julianne's Red |
When L'oreal first released the Collection Exclusive Pure Reds, I wasn't that fussed about picking them up as I wasn't completely wowed by the Nudes Collection. I saw this in Boots and thought I'd swatch them, and my mind changed instantly! The Reds Collection is so pigmented and they apply so creamily, I just love the shade selection. After swatching them all, I decided to get Julianne's Red but I will definitely be picking up the other three shades.
What products have you been picking up lately?
