So if you follow me on twitter, you will know that on saturday I broke my makeup ban! :-( I was doing so well! I dont know what came over me! I had managed 27 days of not purchasing any makeup! I totally blame these two posts that Lily did. Here & Here and any posts that anyone has done on the blush 'Head over heels'!! :-)
You see, where I live there isnt a Topshop, and I go through phases of ordering things online. I like to break it up a bit because otherwise people think I am made of money with the amount of things I get delivered to work! :-) When in Basingstoke last Saturday I decided to take advantage of the selection of shops and 'pop into topshop' to just LOOK at the makeup...next thing I knew I was handing over my card at the till for the above items! Then I was greated by Tom outside...the words 'Well you've failed' were said to me....I'm not going to lie....
I FELT AWFUL.
To justify this little blimp in my makeup ban... I am not actually going to use these items till September (as I only had 5 days till the end of the ban) And I definitley will not be buying anymore makeup in August. If Im honest, It hasnt been too hard being on this makeup ban, and from now on I think I am only going to buy makeup items if I do really need it, not just for the sake of it... (ok I didnt really need these purchases but we'll ignore that fact) I do want to downside the amount of makeup I have, Like Sarah put in this post, I only have one face, why do I need all the slap!
Much Love
Head Over Heels is a beauttttt xxx
ReplyDeleteGreat choices, I LOVE Topshop make-up!
ReplyDeleteTopshop is always to blame ha! They all look really nice, I've been lusting after the topshop liner since Lily's post too!x
ReplyDeleteAw Basingstoke is just up the road from me when I'm at Uni! (: I really do love Topshop make-up, it's such good quality for a spin-off range. Really want to try the lipstick you bought! xx
ReplyDeleteAw what a shame! I banned myself in july and august but as I went on holiday my boyfriend said, you can buy makeup there, but you're not aloud to open or use them until the ban is over, and let me tell you that is harder than not being able to buy it!xx
ReplyDeleteThe blush and lipstick shades are gorgeous! I really want to try a gel liner but I'm not sure which one to opt for
ReplyDeletexx
It's hard to resist when the see everything in real life! I'm so impressed with Topshop make up xx
ReplyDeleteYou still did really well though, it's good that you're not gonna use them til September, I think that counts :P
ReplyDeleteI do love the colour of that lipstick, definitely on my list when I get a few pennies!
xx
I think breaking the spending ban was definitely worth it for these products! i have head over heels and i'm in love with it! i've wanted to grab that lipstick and eyeliner for ages too! http://openboxjewels.blogspot.com/ XX
ReplyDeleteI've heard A LOT about thi blush and wow, it does look gorgeous!I love the look of the lipstick too, too bad there's no Topshop here ):
ReplyDeleteAhh you did well though so don't feel too bad! I love Head Over Heels but I also want to check out Topshop's new blushes and collection! x
ReplyDeleteWell done for lasting as long as you did, just think how much more you could have spent in 27 days. Innocent looks really pretty.
ReplyDeleteaww bless you haha! But the topshop eyeliner is good and they've changed their liner brush :O :O looks easier to use now!! plus its only a few days till september :P xox

I've been wanting this blush for ages and still haven't got around to getting it - I don't live near a topshop either. The colour of this lipstick is gorgeous too! x
ReplyDeleteOh no, 27 days is a while though! I keep wanting to try some of the topshop make up range x
ReplyDeleteIt's Sept now,. so I can actually try it out! x
ReplyDeleteThere's a lot more on my wishlist if I am honest! x
ReplyDeleteJust shows how much of a influence bloggers are! x
ReplyDeleteAh really? Where do you go to Uni? The lipstick is lovvvvely! x
ReplyDeleteIt wasnt too hard, i just hid mine away in a box and made sure my other products were out on show so i used them instead! :-) x
ReplyDeleteI know! I did feel bad! x
ReplyDeleteI'll share my thought s on these products once Ive used them for a bit so maybe that will help you decide x
ReplyDeleteI know I only went to have a look/swatch!! Nevermind! :-) x
ReplyDeleteThanks! I know, waiting till Sept made me feel a little less bad about it! x
ReplyDeleteTbh I could have gone mad and bougth a lot more! Im very happy with what I bought! ;-) x
ReplyDeleteI was tempted to order online but they dont always have everything in stock which is a pain. Maybe you could get someone who does live near one to pick up some items for you x
ReplyDeleteThanks! I know there was a lot more i could have easily bought! They look lovely! x
ReplyDeleteThanks, I know I could have spent a lot. Its made me realise that I dont need all thelatest collections when they come out! I will probs already have something like it! x
ReplyDeleteUsed it this morning and I do like it.. not sure about the brush yet though, might have to give it a few more tries before i decide if i like it. x
ReplyDelete:-) Thanks. x
ReplyDeleteHa, its not so much clothes for me as I think some items in TOPSHOP are way overpriced for what they are in regards to the clothing! x
ReplyDeleteMaybe see if they have it online? If not get someone who lives near one to pick some bits up for you and then you could own some new makeup! x
ReplyDeleteI am impressed with the makeup and the packaging is lush x
