Collective Haul | Beauty Bay | Superdrug | Primark | Budget Brands.

Oh hiiii!!! 

Guess who's back... Back again... Leya's back... Tell yo friends!! 

(Now I have that freaking song in my head)

It's the beginning of a fresh new week and a new set of goals. All mine are failing miserably right now. We wont even touch on that subject. 

My brother has pizza right now and I WANT ONE!! I had god damn lettuce leaves, yes, leaves. I would of had one if I hadn't of eaten crap all day. I cannot wait for Autumn so I can exercise again properly. In this muggy little heat I cannot function let alone rip my muscles to shreds. Ha. 

You guys should know me by now... I am an addict. 

My name is Leya and I am addicted to makeup and just shopping in general. 

Now, I am not one of those who has to be shopping all the time, I just like picking things up that I genuinely need or it has caught my eye for one reason or another.  

Beauty Bay is quickly becoming my new found favourite addiction. There's free shipping over £15 and they stock a lot of the American products that aren't readily available in the UK. 

My favourite brands are particularly Morphe, Makeup Geek and LA Girl. There are so many more brands I want to try though. I REALLY want the ABH Moonchild Glow Kit but you can't get it here and it's limited edition. Just like me. :D 

You can find the link to Beauty Bay on my page, go spend your money. You won't regret it. This is my third order.

As it is so simply put in the title of this post, you know it's a haul. This time it is a collective as I have bought some other bits and bobs too from other stores. I visited Superdrug and good old Primark. I didn't go OTT, I was pretty stable.

I have decided to post this haul because everything I bought is extremely affordable and easily accessible!! 

Lets GO!!

Yes you can see correctly!! I FINALLY got one of the most sort after palettes there is and that's the Morphe 350M. If you read my previous posts you would of known that I had tried for months and months to get my hands on the original 350 palette but it sold out soooo quickly. It's like everyone inhaled it. I never stood a chance. SO, when Beauty Bay warned us the complete matte version was coming out the next day I was on that shit man. I set my alarm to wake up extra early (I am sad, I don't give any carebares) so I could clean Cody (my Guinea pig) out and at least brush my teeth. 

I got it!! YAS!!! I love working with matte makeup, especially eyeshadows' so this palette is perfect for me. The tones are incredible and 100% my style and I cannot wait to use it. 

This is everything I bought in my Beauty Bay haul. I have a thaaang for LA Girl too right now, as mentioned and also Makeup Geek. I bought the empty Morphe Palette to put all my single pans in. This beauty was just a little over £5, which is hella amazing as it fits the MG pans in perfectly. I need three more pans to complete my palette (which is magnetic) and I now want, Corrupt, Shimma Shimma and Morocco (all MG). 

This empty pallet is a complete steal at over £5 compared to how much the Z palettes are. I am sooo happy with this and it's super cute!

In all its glory, the 350M palette. Forget look at "that glow though". Look at those tones though. They are so Autumnal, it's me in a freaking palette guys! This was just over £19. 

MG - Chickadee, Morphe - Blackberry.

The Makeup Geek is just under £5 and the Morphe one is a barg at just under £2. 

Can I get a "hell yeah"!

LA Girl is such a cheap brand but really is good quality considering their prices. The blue is an eyeliner, it's not as 'electric' as I wanted it but for under £2 who's complaining. The Berry colour is a lip liner. I have tried this on and I love it. This was £2.49 and the liner pen is super thin and I wanted to try that out for size. That was £4. 

 I have this concealer in the orange corrector and love it so I wanted the lightest shade concealer they do so I can place it on top of my foundation, under my eyes to create the whole light and shade thang. 

Finally in this order I bought the Morphe M135 brush to blend out my shadow under my eyes. I am yet to see how this fairs but I am impressed with their other brushes so far. I think this was like £2.

I have been looking for a night cream to pop on and whilst browsing through Superdrug on Friday I found these bad boys. Both under £2 - I know right. The cream is on offer, so head in there and get it. 

I needed new Micellar water and have tried all of these in the range bar this one. I wasn't keen on the blue one, the pink is currently my favourite and this one looks cool. I'll let everyone know via SM how I get on. I bought my trusty concealer as always and I actually re-purchased the L'Oreal Infallible foundation. I tried the one I had when I won their competition and fell in love and used it all. And this L'Oreal Extraordinary hair oil was on offer for £2 so I picked that up too. 

The final shop I went into was Primark, I picked up a couple of things but I am waiting for the Autumn/Winter things to finally drop before I go in there fully.

I fell in love with this scarf because of the colouring. I was imagining this teamed with a long-line duster jacket, ripped jeans and boots. 

If you know me, you will know I am never too far away from a hot water bottle, this is an essential for me (B12 issues) so it's always handy to have one seeing as I have no man to cuddle up to. 

*Get the violins out* 

Makeup bag to chuck into one of my bags when I am swapping about so I have all my essentials with me at ALL times. 

I LOVE these little fairy lights!! I got them as a prop for my blog pics but right now they are on my dressing table shining bright like a copper diamond. 

Come on how snazzy is this sweat. I love everything about it. Although I wish they made them longer. I really like the holographic pattern on it and the fact it's white is always great for Instagram photes... Not so much when you get makeup down it. 

And breathe.... We are all done!!

I always aim to keep these posts mega short but I love to chat, so no apologies there. Ha.

Beauty Bay Haul & Experience | FT Morphe, Zoeva, Lit Cosmetics, Makeup Geek & LA Girl

Evening beauties!! 

I hope y'all are fine and dandy. 

I am a little fed up today. Ha. 

Trying to stay positive though as good things come to those who wait and all that. :) 

Yeah right! Ha, does anyone ever believe that?!

Is anyone in the UK suffering with this disgusting, muggy heat that we are experiencing at night?! 4 nights in a row now I haven't been able to sleep because of the suffocating warmth. Literally it has gotten to the point where you have removed every item of clothing and you're contemplating taking your skin off as well. 

Ha. 

I JUST WANT TO SLEEP DAMN IT. 

:) 

I have been back and forth on whether I should order from Beauty Bay for a while now, if you don't know they are an online beauty retailer who stocks a lot of items in which you can't always get in the UK. I had placed many things in my basket but being jobless at the moment they kind of stayed there. I recently sold a lot of new makeup that I had and wasn't going to use so I thought I would buy the things in my basket at some point. I was in no rush.

I saw on Twitter that they were having a buy one get one free offer on the Makeup Geek eyeshadow pans and I was on that shit like a kid on cake. I was there. 

They were selling out MEGA QUICK but I managed to get the pans I wanted bar 2 which were - Creme Brulee and Roulette and I think there was actually a foiled one that disappeared too. They all ended up being half price because I think the day before the BOGOF offer wasn't working for people. 

I ordered 5 of the Makeup Geek eyeshadow pans, one of the Morphe pans, the rose gold Zoeva eye brush set, the Morphe 35B palette and blending crease brush, Lit Cosmetics glitter kit and LA Girls HD lose powder to bake with. I got a free gift with that too. 

I had to order the Morphe palette and brush separately as I was trying to keep my order to £100 but I put the others on my credit card. 

Whoops. 

My order went through and I went off to the Busted gig and didn't think about it again... Until I hit social media that is. 

EVERYONE was kicking off about the Makeup Geek offer, I mean everyone. I wasn't too bothered as I got some that I wanted. Now what put the fear of God into me was that everyone was complaining that they hadn't received shipping confirmation for their next day deliveries. I hadn't either. 

I did panic a bit because some people were getting theirs the next day and mine still kept saying 'processing'. I ordered on the Saturday, I phoned them on the Monday as my order statuses hadn't changed at all. I was told I would receive my things on Tuesday. 

I was cool with that. 

I do think however the problem was the lack of communication from Beauty Bay in regards to deliveries and confirmations as I wouldn't of been worried if it wasn't for everyone else. It did put me off. 

I did feel for Beauty Bay though because everyone was kicking off at them and I don't think they realised how popular Makeup Geek was and a lot of people tried order but the site wouldn't let them and then they sold out. 

I am sure it will all be sorted. 

I was so excited when my parcels came on Tuesday and this is what I bought. 

A lot of the items were on my b'day wishlist in which I posted the other week. 

Enjoy :) 

I cannot wait to use this pallet. I think I may do so tomorrow!! I love bright colours on the eyes A LOT!!! I want the much sort after 350 palette when it comes back into stock. 

If it ever does that is! 

I have wanted these brushes for years now and have always been on a wishlist of some sort. So, seeing as I never got them I bought them as an early birthday present from me to me. 

Ha. As you do. 

I thought I would see what all the hype was about with the Makeup Geek shadows. Can't wait to use these either! From top left to bottom right; Duochrome - Backlight, Peach Smoothie, foiled - Starry Eyed, Cocoa Bear and Bitten. I also got a single Morphe eyeshadow pan too.  

 And there you have it. My quite expensive haul. 

I cannot wait to start using it all. Had to wait so I could take the pics for this post. 

It has killed me!! Ha.

High Street Beauty Haul | Nyx, Mac, Urban Decay, Primark, The Balm, New Look, Adell And More.

Morning beauties. 

We meet again. I am sorry that this post is going up later than usual, you can blame freaking Apple for that. 

For almost a week now I have been on the phone to them to try and get a replacement Iphone because mine is seriously overheating, the batteries draining, it's freezing, not loading the net properly. 

Loads of issues. I have spoken to 10 different people, been misinformed with information given and to be honest with you I am completely at the end of my tether now with them. I am going round in circles and considering that it's a HEALTH AND SAFETY issue they are really beating around the bush. 

So Apple, if my phone blows up in my face, you are totally to blame because of your shoddy customer service. 

It's like I am trying to get through the MI5 as it's become a military mission to get a handset replaced when I am still under warranty and my phone is 100% not fit for purpose. 

A-holes.  

I could rant on about even more to this story but you would be here all day. 

What you are here for though is my lovely little haul. Well, I say little, it's more like alottle. Ha. 

Seriously, I am not materialistic but whoever said money can't buy you happiness obviously doesn't like shopping because when I shop for things I have had my eye on for a while. Well, that makes me happy. 

This haul is mainly beauty but there is some homeware and accessories chucked in there as well. Ya know, to mix it up a bit. 

There are a couple of things that aren't included in this post as I had to order some NYX products whilst I was in the Boots store, they have my order now but I can't collect it until the afternoon. 

90% of the things bought were from my gift card that I won in the L'Oreal competition. 

I hope you like what I have purchased. Let me know if you have any of the items shown or if you haven't tried something let me know too. I love to chat. 

Enjoy. 

I thought this note book was super cute, bought it to write my songs in. 

C'mon it had to be done. I haven't read this yet but I SO can't wait to. 

I have wanted these nails since Christmas and I have never found them in store until now. :)

I got this to put a load of photograph memories in it, I have since done it and it's super cool!

I got this free as there was no more makeup bags left in Superdrug.

I went to the Merry Hill store and there was an amazing pink shade in this style but it was out of stock, this one though was soooo hot!! 

There were  a lot of MAC products that I wanted but most of them were in the 'Pro' range which you can only get in London so I bought a paint pot in 'Soft Ochre', a glitter pigment in 'Bronze' and another 'HoneyLove' lipstick. 

I had never seen this before and this is £12... Yes £12, so freaking expensive! I got this free though in Superdrug. I didn't mind so much. You put it on your lips and it's meant to be really good. It should be for the price. 

Everyone has been raving about this highlighter so I thought I would pick it up in Superdrug. I had to ask security to get this though because it was locked up due to people stealing it. :D 

I have wanted to try NYX products for sooo long now and finally managed to get to a Boots that had it. A lot of things I wanted haven't hit the UK fully yet. I want the 'Neutral Warm' and 'Brights' pallets amongst some other things. 

This is actually a bright orange colour but hasn't show up properly. I also have this is bright red and you can use it on your eyes and lips. Score. 

I originally bought the boxset that was in one of the first pictures but didn't realise a new one had been released with all of the series in so I swapped it. 

 As I said there are a couple of things that I haven't been able to include in this haul post because I haven't got them yet. 

Again, I am sorry about the lateness of this post and tomorrow I am going in hard on Apple because I refuse to spend another day sat on or by the phone waiting for callbacks that aren't going to happen. Ha. 

I hope you liked going through what I have bought and I would love to hear your thoughts!!
