BeautyJoint haul

Hey hey!

Hope you're all doing well!

A couple of weeks ago I made a BeautyJoint order, and it arrived in my mailbox last week!
So I figured why not show you all what I ordered? :)
Keep reading if you're interested!

NYX Dewy Finish Setiing Spray-
NYX Dewy Finish Spray - $8.00
I'd been wanting this for such a very long time, after hearing Shaaanxo rave about it in her videos :) 
Yes, I do take a lot of my makeup inspiration from her, so you'll often see her name pop up! Especially when I post hauls ;) Forever being sucked in!
I haven't tried this yet, but I will post my thoughts up when I do!

Milani Baked Blushes in '05 Luminoso' and '01 Dolce Pink'- 
Milani Baked blushes - L:'05 Luminoso' R:'01 Dolce Pink' - $7.99ea
These have recieved so much hype in the online beauty community, so obviously I had to get my little hands on them!
'Luminoso' is the shade that gets nearly all of the spotlight, and I had heard Lauren Curtis raving about this one along with 'Dolce Pink', so I figured why not try both?

L: 05 Luminoso R: 01 Dolce Pink
These are CRAZY pigmented! You barely have to touch your brush in the product to get more than enough for both cheeks (and it's not made any easier by the fact that I'm as pale as a ghost).
I haven't used them enough to have made a concrete decision on them, but as soon as I've decided, you'll be the first ones to know! Promise!

The last three things I bought are all E.L.F products. I've only recently started getting into this brand (way late, I know) and I'm so happy I have! I was holding out for my trip to Hawaii, where I was going to stock up on E.L.F stuff, but I couldn't find it anywhere! So I've had to make some sneaky purchases since getting back home ;) The first two were again, all Shaanxo's fault!

E.L.F Eyebrow Kit in 'Ash'-
E.L.F Eyebrow Kit in 'Ash' - $3.99
I've used this little guy once so far, and already I don't know if I'm sold. I only used the wax side, but even when I swatched it on the back of my hand, it just isn't as pigmented as I thought it would be. Perhaps I need a darker colour. I'll keep playing around and hopefully it will get better the further I dig into it!

E.L.F High Definition Undereye Setting Powder-
E.L.F Undereye setting powder - $3.99
So far, I've only heard good things about this one! Can't wait to give it a shot. I'm such a fan of highlighting products, and anything that will make me look more awake gets my money! I'm hoping it will give my Bare Minerals 'Well-Rested' a run for it's money - I love that stuff! So if this is anything similar, I'll be a very happy lady :)

E.L.F Studio blush in 'Gotta Glow'-
E.L.F Blush 'Gotta Glow' - $3.99
Did I mention yet that I'm a fan of highlighting products? ;)
This reminds me so much of NARS Albatross! I'd read online that they were similar, and I figured since I already own the latter, I would grab the E.L.F one so that I could write a comparison post for you guys! :)

So that's it for this BeautyJoint haul! I will mention that shipping can get a little exxy with this website, so keep that in mind. It also took a really long time to get to me! (more than 3 weeks from ship date to arrival date). 
If you're willing to wait though, it's worth it! Because I think it makes up for the shipping costs in the low prices they charge for the products themselves :) 
And if you live in Australia, you'll know that waiting is just a part of having beauty products from the rest of the world that we just can't get here, unfortunately! 

Xx.

  1. I would love to hear what you think of the Gotta Glow and Albatross! I have Gotta Glow but I haven't decided if I want to splurge on the Nars one... :D
