COLLECTION: my lipsticks! __MakeuPanda

I took these photos a long time ago and haven't got around to posting them yet.
So this is just a collection of my lipsticks.
I don't have that many but I do love them and am constantly buying more! :)


 I store them in this glass pot from Hobbycraft but I think that I will need something bigger soon hehe.


 These are colortrend by Avon. I don't like woodland very much but bikini is very cute.
 These are Topshop lipsticks, and the colours are really rich and apply well.



 These are Mac and I collected quite a few of these with Back to Mac. If you're wondering which swatch is which then please don't hesitate to ask.



 These are just two randoms! Barry M in black, because Ireally wanted a black lipstick and I knew that Barry M did one for a cheap price! :) It's lovely but takes a few coats to build up the colour. The other is a small Urban Decay lipstick in Midnight Cowboy. It's a miniture version my mum got me in a set :) The colour is quite sheer but looks very pretty.

Which is your favourite lipstick brand and colour? :)

HAUL: small haul of recent bargain purchases! __MakeuPanda

So recently I bought these lip balms which are Lip Smacker and I got them from Primark. They have quite a few different 'flavours' of lip balm and I got the Coca Cola Vanilla, Coca Cola Cherry, Sprite and Fanta.
They are so cute and smell SO good, especially the Cherry Coke one, but that's because I love cherry coke.They were £1.50 each.
I love them alllll!

And, today I went to Home Bargains, and I love it, because you just buy all the stuff you don't really need but you buy it because it's cheap! Hahaha, I'm not sure why but I love those shops... ANYWAY. I bought these eyelashes because, to me, it doesn't matter what brand they are as long as they look ok, it's the glue that matters! And I have DUO eyelash adhesiv so, I'm all set.
 These are Girls Aloud festival lashes by Eyelure, I got them from Home Bargains for 99p each!!
 These are 'Cheryl' and have like gold paint splashes on them.
 These are 'Sarah' and are red and black and so long and pretty.
These are by Dimples and were £1.99 for two pairs.

I love beauty bargains! They also have Simple makeup wipes really cheap and moisturisers and things.
We also got some of those non slip hangers for £2.99 for a pack of ten. They are great for clothes which have a wide neck or strappy dresses which don't cling to hangers very well. Plus they are narrow and don't clutter your wardrobe.

What do you think?

MAKEUP LOOKS: a collection from the last few weeks __MakeuPanda

I must start this post with an apology- I have been gone awhile, I know! Unfortunately I had 5 A level exams to deal with... But now I'm free! With plenty of time to focus on my make-up ;)

So! On to the post!
I'm going to post a few looks that I've done since my last post.. I've been collecting photos but not updating my blog, so here's my last-two-weeks-or-so in photos! Haha.
Firstly, a quite old photo of a look which I never posted here, so I thought I would share it with you!


A blue and gold look, I THINK I used mac eyeshadows for this but to be honest it's a while ago!
And a matching dress from Matalan, how lovely...

Next, a drag-queen kind og look I created whilst playing around with makeup the other night, hope you like! (I really need to purchase something which covers my eyebrows better than pritt-stick...)



Next is a soft smokey brown look.
Please excuse messy bedroom floor...



And now on to a classic red lip and lined eye:
My beloved Blackberry and a not-so-great case :s


My red lip is Daredevil by Topshop with my red liptar in NSFW.

Finally, an old photo:
Hahaha..cute gothy.
Which look do you like the best?
