Mini Priceline Haul & First Impressions xx

Australis

So today I took advantage of the 40% off at Priceline. If you haven't heard about this yet, it will still be going tomorrow!


Australis Velourlips in Tok-i-o
The main reason I got this is because Jessi from Jessi in Wonderland Blog raves about the vibrancy of these. Although she is right, they are very drying. I noticed that straight away, and to be honest I found it a bit difficult to get even coverage. I can look past that though as they are so bright! I love the purple! Easily fixed with a balm or gloss if I don't want the matte.

Models Prefer Infinite Colour Eye Pencil in Black Cat
This is so BLACK! and to make it a little more special, it has a sparse amount of glitter in it.
It is already starting to be one of my favorite Eyeliner Pencils.
It's very creamy on first impression, and after hearing it being raved about on Youtube, I thought I may try it. Lucky that I have!


Essence Get Big Lashes Mascara
I haven't tried this yet. But I got this as the wand is kind of similar to the Maybelline Colossal Mascara.
I was on a budget thanks to lovely darling fiance, so I thought I may try this.


Garnier BB Cream for Combination to Oily Skin in Light
This was a re-purchase, if you follow the blog you know I already love this.
I have been mixing this with a couple drops of my Kett Cosmetics Foundation as it is a lot lighter than last time I brought it!

Face of Australia Face Base Primer
If you follow me already, you will know that I find primers a bit pointless. I have recently had very bad acne, and my pores are massive, and getting to the point they are stretched and hard to hide. Thought I may actually try a primer to fill them in before applying my BB Cream. I'll see how this goes.
Made a wee bit of a mistake as I got the one with SPF 15 and I do not like that cosmetics...

Hope you enjoyed my mini haul! 

Professional Paintbox Liquid Pro-Mix xx

Eyeliner
 
This is absolutely the most favourite product that I have in my kit!
And a must-have for any professional kit!!!
Love it!

Colour

The Liquid Pro-Mix is clear in colour! Which is it's soul purpose of course! This product needs to be clear so that it can set any shadow as a bright colourful eyeliner!

Why I love it!

I love this product because it makes eyeliner colours more accessible and less eyeliner pots in your professional kit! The eyeliner colours are endless, from golds and silvers, to fluro's and nuterals! Such a great product, so you can basically have any colour you love as an eyeliner!
I love this product!

Availability

These products aren't available to just anyone.
They are only sold to professionals through other professionals.
So sorry to anyone that I have got their hopes up to!

Tip

Always test the colour with the shadow and Pro-Mix on the back of the hand, as colours may not come out the same as they are in the eyeshadow pan! And put your powder on and then run over the colour with the Pro-Mix on the brush :) You may need a palette for the product!
 
 
Now you know why I love it!
Swatches will be coming soon! :D

Paintbox Eyeliner! :D

Eyeliner
 
I have used Paintbox for a little while now (roughly a year) as part of my professional kit!
And well, I sneak in a few uses every now and then ;) Just because I love the brand!
 

Colour

So in this post I will be sharing the Paintbox Eyeliners in Paragon (bottom) and Onyx (top).
Onyx is a very standard Matte colour, and Onyx is a shimmery grey/black!
These colours are perfect for any lining of the eye and Dark Smokey eye!
 

Why I love it!

The reason why I love these are because they are a VERY soft pencil.
They apply well with only one streak over the lid, so you don't have to go over the area a million times to get the intense colour you want! I find that great as if you are running back and fourth continuously you are more likely to gain a BIG streak!
 

Availability

These products aren't available to just anyone.
They are only sold to professionals through other professionals.
So sorry to anyone that I have got their hopes up to!
 

Tip

To any professional that may be reading this, I must warn you that this is an extremely soft pencil.
So my tip to you in to put these eyeliners into a zip-lock bag over night or for half hour before travel as it will help to firm the pencil before you sharpen before use on a client. If you don't do this it will crumble everytime you sharpen. I store all my liners in the fridge anyways :)
