Haul!


We went out to Highpoint Shopping Centre in the afternoon/night and we grabbed a few bargains whilst being spontaneous with our shopping, so we thought we would share what we bought! We then had Nandos for dinner, luckily it was a Friday so all the shops closed late unlike every other day in the week. After we were done eating and shopping we went to the arcade and decided to play some games, I (Jessica) spent a fair bit of money trying to win a Despicable me minion key chain which I ended up succeeding in as you can see in the photo below. And I (Rebekah) won nothing because I am terrible, should've seen the score difference on the basketball game haha.  



Below are photos of what we got :)


Fluffy jumper - Glassons $30
Bourjois bronzer - Asos $14
Mac Pro Longwear foundation -  Myer $40/$50

I ordered the Bourjois bronzer from Asos recently and luckily it came just in time for this post so I could include it. I was inspired to purchase the bronzer because of Tanya Burr on Youtube. I had seen how lovely it looked on her skin and decided I wanted to give it a try and it smells sooo good. 
The fluffy jumper is so cozy and warm, if any of you Australians live near a Glassons please do give it a feel because it feels just like cats fur if not softer. 
And lastly the Pro Longwear foundation, I've already tried it and the concealer is much better. The foundation doesn't look as natural which means you look really washed out and could look cakey, but the coverage is amazing. If you have been wanting to purchase this for a while, go to your nearest mac counter and ask them to colour match you, then they will try it on you and you will be able to tell if you like it from that.

Knit Jumper - Dotti Originally $60 reduced to $40
Garnier Cleansing Water - Priceline $11.99
Compartments - Daiso $2.80 each 

Oh the joys of having a job right, its literally life changing, I got a a job about 5 months ago and the ability to shop is just magnificent. 
I realised my wardrobe was really missing a knitted jumper, its ridiculous that I did not own one. Dotti had a sale and I have always eyed off their knitted jumpers but the price had always turned me off however the sale was so pressuring that I finally got one! Its incredibly warm and the only thing that I could say is bad is it sheds so much and it will be all over your top underneath and you would have to wear a light type of pants so not leggings basically cause its just crazy. I am hoping after a wash or a few the amount of wool that comes off isn't bad.
Not long ago I purchased the Maybelline mega plush mascara which is so impossible to remove with just water and my lack of patience and energy to put in extra effort to remove it was just a chore. This new Garnier cleansing water claims to remove make-up, cleanse and sooth the face, eyes and lips and you don't need to rinse it off which meets all my expectations cause its fast and easy and doesn't require much effort and from what I have experienced so far it works.  
I don't own that much make-up and its all stuffed in the tiniest makeup bag which was just getting too full and not practical and Jessica has these exact compartments and they are cheap and I will hopefully find a place to now store my make-up in a better way and if I do there sure will be a post about it ahha.
