Poundland & Superdrug Haul

I picked up a few things for a photography project, where I needed to smash up/possibly destroy some makeup (THE HORRORRRR) so I didn't want to use my own, obviously! Haha. But I also grabbed two things for myself and of the things I'm using for the project, I figured I could review for you guys anyways.

MUA Lipstick in Shade 4:

MUA Lipstick in Shade 1:

Swatches:

As you can see, Shade 1 is verrry pigmented, but Shade 4 isn't at all, but I didn't mind, because a pink that bright is a bit scary anyways.

MUA Pearl Eyeshadow in Shade 11 & Wet N Wild Eyeshadow Mono in Sensual Sage:

For being a pound each, they're quite pigmented. Sensual Sage is slightly chalky though.

The final two items are things I grabbed for myself.

Vaseline Rosy Lips Lip Therapy (1.99 pounds) :

This was a bit of an impulse buy, because I saw it at the front when I was checking out. They also have the Cocoa Butter one in tubes now, but I was like "Lauren, you still haven't finished your tin one yet, calm down" so I just grabbed the Rosy lips one because I figured it's a nice way to add a pop of color when I don't feel like applying lipstick, which has sadly been the case lately.

Not sure if I'm crazy about the smell. I know some people love the smell of roses, but to me it's kind of like wearing a perfume on my lips? LOL. I much prefer vanilla smells, etc, on my lips, but I mean, it's not a BAD smell, I'm just not used to it. =) Otherwise, I'm quite pleased with it.

Rimmel Exaggerate Full Colour Lip Liner Definer in Eastend Snob (I've thrown out the receipt but I'm pretty sure this was either 3.99 or 2.99) :

I've also been wanting a light pink lip liner, because the one I have is more of a rose color and doesn't really match the majority of the lipsticks that I actually wear. It looked more like the shade I was thinking of in the store, but when I got home it looked almost lilac? But on the lips it deffo seems like a perfect match for a light pink color. I've paired it with the MUA lipstick in Shade 4 and I think they go amazing together. BUT, right when I went to swatch it, the top bit (it's angled) when bye bye onto the floor, so maybe that says something about the quality, or maybe I was too heavy handed? I prefer it non angled anyways, if I'm honest, so it's no biggie.

My lips lined with the lip liner:

The lip liner + MUA Lipstick in Shade 4 (I think they're a great match!):

MUA Lipstick in Shade 1:

Vaseline Rosy Lips Therapy:

Seeing as the majority of what I got was only a pound each, I'd call this a very cheap haul indeed!

Poundland Goodies

Ahhh I love Poundland. :D My boyfriend and I were there today, and got plenty of goodies, all for only 8 pounds! Among those goodies are two Rimmel Three-Sum eyeshadows in Naughty (left) and Breath Taking (right).

(Swatched over Urban Decay Primer Potion in Eden)

(No Flash)

When you're essentially getting 6 eyeshadows for only 2 pounds, you can't really complain. So I won't. They're not crazy pigmented, but they're good enough, really. So overall, a good buy!

Have you guys found any cheap makeup goodies lately?
