Is this Excessive?

Ok girls. don't judge me! Yes I have literally gone out and bought 3 copies of Glamour magazine. Luckily two of them were actually different, but yes I do have a duplicate. Why? Well as I'm sure most of you know, today the new Glamour came out with some amazing Benefit goodies as freebies! When you buy the £2 mag you will get either a Bad Gal Smoldering black eye pencil, an Eye Brght Instant eye brightener or The It Stick Conceal it all stick.

As you can see..... I got all three! But for £6 that is a bargain don't you think? And I had been thinking about buying Eye Bright for a while too. So excited!




I instantly had to try these out, so first I swatched them. From far left: the It stick, bad gal and eye bright.


Verdict? These pencils are amazing value for 2 squids each. Seriously creamy and easy to apply. The it stick is a perfect shade for my skin tone but probably not for everyones (bit of a strange product). My favourite has to be the Eye Bright though, because I applied it to the inner corners of my eyes and on the inner lower lash line and it instantly revived my face! I love the gorgeous soft pink colour it is too. Bad Gal speaks for itself really, just a perfect smudgy versatile product. You could use it as a kohl liner, under the lash line, on the top lash line plus it would be a great base for a smokey eye look.

Okay so you probably can't tell much from this picture, but I have all 3 products one. I used It stick to conceal under my eyes, bad gal on the lower lash line outer 1/3rd and eye bright on the inner section of my eye. I absolutely love these products, they will be staples in my handbag at all times from now on!


On a different note, I did a little shopping recently and purchased these cute Rolla Sole pumps which can be found at http://www.rollasole.com/. They are my newest addition to my handbag as  always always (!) wear innapropriate shoes for any occassion. They are always too hgh or just too uncomfortable and I end up in agony towards the end of the day so I was in desperate need of something like this. I think of them as my emergency back up plan. They roll up so small and fit snugly in my handbag and then if I need to I can just whip them out and voila comfy feet once again. so they're not the most stylish when they're on my feet, and knd of look like slippers, but If I can fit them in my handbag I don't really care. An emergency is an emergency!





Okay thats it for now girls! But I wanna know did any of you get Glamour today, or plan on it (if there's any left!)?
