A few years ago, my cousin who is a stylist in hair and makeup, brought over a lot of makeup for me from HK. She was doing my wedding makeup at the time, so she was very equipped including bringing over 10 different shades of purple eye shadows. Mad really but I was very pleased about the amount of makeup to choose from.
One of the fastinating things she give me was the Eye Majic Instant Eye Shadow kit. This kit consists of two pairs of eye shadows which you just press onto your eye lids. I was given two different shadows, one brown and pink and the other is purple and blue moon colour. Anyway I finally tried it on today. I must say that it is extremely easy to use. OMG, the eye shadow was done in 10 seconds on both eyes which is very very quick. The result was very pleasing, I was in a hurry to get to work, so I ran out of the house, but next time, I will take a photo of my eyes and post it here. I love this product, its so good for lazy days or lazy people like me who want to look presentable! :P

E.L.F makeup haul
Recently, I read a lot of articles and reviews about a cosmetic brand called E.L.F which stands for Eyes, Lips, Face. A lot of people online recommended their cream duo eyeshadow and their makeup brushes and I happen to be looking for affordable makeup brushes. Although MAC brushes are well-known to be one of the best brands I was determined to shop around and find good brushes at great prices. So I decided to do a bit more research about about E.L.F products.
After surfing around, I discovered a site called makeupalley.com. This site enables users to give reviews on any makeup/beauty products. I couldn't resist not joining in with the reviews and I registered myself. Many bloggers commented how the ELF brushes were so soft, wonderful and inexpensive. Also it sounds to me that ELF products are very inexpensive in general, with the average price of £1.50 and so many people giving reviews on their eyeshadows and brushes, I decided to make my first purchase.
Earlier in the day, I had browsed through ELF website and had compiled a list of products which I want to try out. They were charging for delivery which made me think if I should held back a bit till there was some kind of promotion.
A fews hours later, I received a mailshot from ELF detailing free delivery on all UK & Europe orders. I thought, its just my lucky day and that was when I went rather crazy and brought quite a few products. I am very excited about this because I think I have chosen my products well, with buying only one eyeshadow shade to try out from each range. I am also very confident about their brushes after reading its reviews, so I brought a whole range of brushes. I should get this by first class post very soon.
