iHerb Haul #3 ft. some extras

Basically this haul was mainly to acquire more brushes seen as I don't have a huge range of brushes and some are getting rather shabby and my spoolie brush just really needed replacing. But before that I got a few little things as a bonus for myself, as well as iHerb including a nail file for free which I actually really did need!

E.L.F Eyebrow Kit in Light $3.00
Of course I had to get this, everyone and their cat has this eyebrow kit so I just had to try it out. Unfortunately the last time I tried on iHerb and in store in Kmart neither had the light version so I just had to wait until it was back in stock. I have it now though and I'm loving it, especially as I got complimented on my brows the other week I've finally began to accept my slightly bushier brows.

Madre Labs Unscented Hand Cream 10c originally $7.95
I didn't know anything about this product at all apart from the fact that it was on sale at an incredible discounted price that I just had to throw it in my basket, you always need hand creams though right? Since then I've seen a few good things about it and have enjoyed using it so far. Although does anyone else think it smells weird? It's meant to be unscented but it just smells weird to me... still works nicely though!

E.L.F Angled Contour Brush  $3.00
I was wanting some smaller brushes as the only ones I really had were face brushes, a liner brush, and one average eyeshadow brush so before finding the ones below on ebay I thought this ELF one seemed pretty good! I read up on the reviews and found it was more of an eyeshadow brush size than a bigger contouring brush so thought it could have a few uses! It's not as soft as the below ones so I'd totally recommend them more.

Spoolie Brush 14p
I needed a new one and for 14p with free shipping how could I say no? Plus it's actually a nicer quality than my previous one and much much cheaper. You can probably see some brow product in there already, I couldn't wait to use it after seeing how bad my old one looked next to this new one.

Eyeshadow Brushes $2.84
You never know with Ebay but I've only had one bad product before and these aren't it! They're a really nice quality for the price, seem much nicer than the ELF one, but I guess only time will tell which will outshine the other. A nice range of shapes to suit a range of tasks for only a couple of dollars, why not?

If any of the products are total winners I guess you'll have to wait and see in a upcoming favourites post, when I get round to having enough things to do one! Let me know if you've got anything good recently, I'm itching to go buy more. Also use CTP518 to get $10 off your first order!

April Catch Up

So my birthday month is finally over and it truly was a birthday month I celebrated from Easter weekend all the way til last weekend it was great! Lets have a catch up and see what else happened.

The beginning of the month was Easter weekend and the start of my two week mid semester break. Due to not being able to go home for the holidays as I live so far away from my uni that it's slightly pointless paying over $300 to go home for around 10 days, my parents came down to Wellington instead and brought my brother along. We didn't do too many exciting things just spent some good quality time with them seen as I hadn't seen them since January it was nice to chill with them and celebrate my birthday seen as Brad was in Australia at a Brass Band competition which he won by the way. The following week his brothers came down and we saw Ed Sheeran!!!!! I can't contain my excitement it was amazing and I already have my tickets to see him again in December my gosh! I spent the rest of the holidays with Brads family in Wanganui enjoying the free time I had before uni started again and Brad started his busy Anzac week with Air Force, also celebrated my birthday again. Hallelujah the actual birthday happened! It was a fab day spent with friends and making memories; now I remember why I don't drink on weekdays anymore...  

Hands down I've been loving cake oh my god I feel like I've had enough cake last month to make me never want cake again but hey if you're offering? I've also been loving the apple products I kindly got gifted for my birthday - being a special 21st I got an Apple TV and an Apple Trackpad, golly gosh they're amazing I can't wait til our internet is reconnected this week so I can permanently watch Netflix while doing uni work.

Unfortunately due to giving myself a few days off here and there over April because of holidays etc there have been less posts than usual however there's still enough to compete for top three and here they are: 

iHerb Haul

I made a sneaky order over on iherb.com and this is what I hauled, also including a few more items from local shops. Check it out here.

Have a look at one of my favourite artists/designers at the moment, she creates gorgeous type designs and I just want to buy all of them. See here.

Following Sarah-Elizabeth's post I flipped out my wallet and with a coin I looked back into my past. Look at what I'm talking about here.
