Mail Time #1

I received a few different packages this week and though I'd share them with you :)



The first thing I got, which was a total surprise, is my Beautorium order from Beautyheaven. I was not expecting this for another 2 or 3 weeks, so when I saw it I couldn't wait to rip apart the package. Beautorium is an amazing rewards system for members of Beautyheaven that have achieved enough points to cash in for some pretty fantastic products. I have accumulated enough points for a high end item and after window shopping the week before I decided on the Estee Lauder Idealist Even Skintone Illuminator. I swapped 1600 points for the 30ml bottle which retails for $80. I can't wait to properly use this and then review this.

Beautyheaven also kindly included a sample for Compeed Cold Sore patches and a Lady Jane Bun Styl'r kit which includes a hair donut, some pins and a full instruction booklet.

I purchased a Revlon Kissable Balm Stain in the shade 'Sweetheart' from a Blog Sale from IndieAnna, she still has quiet a number of Smashbox products available so head on over there if you're interested. I bought this for $7.00 + postage.

The next two items are from Ebay. The first is a Bobbi Brown Extra Eye Repair Cream which an extremely thick and almost balm-y eye cream. The SA at Bobbi Brown previously gave me a small sample of this eye cream and I really enjoyed using it. I didn't want to fork out the insane $120 that is the RRP of this eye cream here in Australia so I headed over to eBay to see if I could find a small sample pot. I purchased this for $19.99 + postage.

I also bought a Maybelline Colour Tattoo in the shade 'Barely Branded'. This was listed for $12.33. I was contemplating whether to purchase the MAC Paint Point in 'Soft Ochre' or to get this and I decided I was get this first as it less than half the price. I plan on wearing this as a base underneath eye shadow or on its own just to even out my eyelid. I am not sure if this is a limited edition shade or not. 

The last thing I got is a another Maybelline Colour Tattoo and this time it's in the shade 'Tenacious Teal'. I received this as part of a swap I did with a member of Beauty Heaven. She also kindly included some samples of a Natio Face Mask and a Pure Fiji Hydating Body Lotion in 'Orange Blossom' which smells divine.

That's all for this week. I am still waiting for a Beauty Bay order that should have arrived on Monday and would have made a nice addition to this post. A lot of people seem to be having trouble with this site lately and I really hope my package arrives without any troubles.

Hope you all have a lovely weekend!
