A Holiday Makeup Haul

After getting back from holiday on Friday night, I have finally finished unpacking. By unpacking, I mean that everything is out of my suitcase just not back in it's original place. oops. But fingers crossed, I can motivate myself to do it before I go back to work tomorrow. I spent 10 days in New Zealand on a road trip with friends, becoming one with nature and adventure, I crawled through a cave in water to see glow worms, hiked up a extinct volcano, and luged down the side of some mountains. As you may or may not know, I am definitely not an outdoor person, so that 10 days was pretty full on and exhausting. So 4 nights in Melbourne by myself to relax and shop was a nice end to trip.

My Mecca Beauty Loop Box Level 2 - January 2017

Definitely one thing that brightens up my day is getting an email from Mecca saying you can go and collect your Beauty Loop Box. I just love picking up my box of samples, which I did this week on one of my lunch breaks at work and excitedly opened it in the staff room. This time around I am a level 2 instead of a 3, but that is a good thing because it means I'm spending less!  Here's a peak at what was inside my box this quarter.

Mecca Cosmetica Wishlist

NARS Velvet Matte Lip Pencil in Dragon Girl | Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara | Too Faced Mr Right Brush | Hourglass Ambient Lighting Blush in Mood Exposure | Sunday Riley Luna Oil
Diptyque Baies Candle | Origins Original Skin  Mask with Rose Clay | Stila Liquid Lipstick in Caramello | Stila Eyes Are The Window Spirit Palette

Lately, I've been feeling the urge to spend. I just recently got a new job and I've used up a few things in my makeup collection. But I've got to start saving a bit more money, so my wishlist is growing bigger and bigger. These are the products that are definitely up the top of the wishlist. Especially the Sunday Riley Luna Oil, I've wanted to up my skincare game for a while and this seems to be the product that everyone raves about.

What's on your beauty wishlist?

My Mecca Beauty Loop Box Level 3 | July 2016

This trimester's box is a bit different to ones they have previously released before. Instead of having regular samples put in, usually they have the same products for every box in that level but products vary between the different levels. However this one, they feature products that their staff love. Their are 11 products selected for Level 3 but you will get a random selection of four in your box. I think it's great to have samples of products that people already love, especially people who know a lot and get to test out a lot of products all the time.

A Little Birthday Haul

So my birthday was last week and I was lucky enough to get some spending money! Of course being me, that money is going to be spent on makeup. I had a few things on my list to get at Mecca Maxima but they had none of the shades I was after. So rather than spending the money just because I was there, I put it into my bank account for a future Sephora order where I would actually spend the money on something I really wanted.

Mini Mecca Maxima Haul

I recently worked an extra 24 hours at work the other week, and I got a big pay slip! Most of that money went into my savings for my Euro Trip at the end of the year, but I thought I would treat myself with a few things from Mecca Maxima.

#TREATYOSELF

As is my usual tradition, I went on a bit of a shopping trip to celebrate the end of the semester. I got a Mecca Cosmetica gift voucher for my birthday, and I had a list as long as my legs of things I wanted to get. But I picked out a few that I've definitely been eyeing out for a long time!

Firstly, I had six items to Back 2 MAC. When you give them six of their products that you've used up, you get a free lipstick! I ended up picking the shade Peach Blossom because I wanted another nude shade and I kept swatching that one overtime I've been to MAC lately.
