Debenhams haul, first impressions, and swatches!


So recently I went into Debenhams and went a little crazy with make up. I bought some new things I haven't tried before and am really excited to share them with you!
So the first thing I got is an old favourite that I have mentioned before, it's the Porefessional by Benefit. If you want to read a previous review on it click here.



Second thing I got is Roller Lash mascara by Benefit. So far I've only used it once however I must say I'm not crazy for it. Good mascaras for me are very difficult to find and although it is very nice I don't think I'll purchase it again after I'm done with it, but this might change in the future.

One last product by Benefit is Puff Off. It's an undereye gel that is meant to reduce puffiness. I actually love this one. So you apply it before concealer, just use a few dots of the gel inside and then glide the tiny iron over it to blend it. It's very cooling and feels great to use in the morning and actually helps reduce the puffiness from under your eyes.

Then I went ahead and got 2 eye shadow palettes. The first being the newest Naked palette from Urban Decay, Naked Smokey. I absolutely love this one! I wanted to get a Naked Palette for a while but was not sure which one to get but once I saw this one I knew it was the one for me. The eye shadows are super pigmented and blend like a dream. It is not cheap but if you can afford it it's worth a try. I will say though that if you already have one of the Naked palettes it's not worth getting a new one for it, only if you don't any Naked palettes like me.

Last thing I got is Too Faced Chocolate bar palette. Made of 100% coco powder this palette actually smells of chocolate! It's a great neutrals palette for every day use yet it does have some really nice shimmers to it. I can see myself using it as an eye shadow palette but also using some of it's shades as highlighters. All and all I did enjoy it a lot, though I do think you can find similar palettes for a lower price.
