So I'm back my holiday from Turkey and it was HOT! Hahha. I'll do a post of some of the outfits I wore over the weekend, but right now I'm too excited because I got a little Escentual.com haul!
I bought a voucher for the site off of BuyaPowa about six months ago, and promptly forgot about it. Until August 1st, when I went to check it, and found out it said 'valid until August 1st' but apparently that did not mean INCLUDING that day as the voucher was already invalid. BOO! I was gutted, but tweeted Escentual and they extended the voucher for me, YAY!
I placed my order at 4.30pm yesterday, with free postage, and it arrived before midday today. AMAZING service. Really chuffed. Here's what I got:
Stila Beach Collectable Palette in Living the Life in Laguna (£10), Philip Kingsley Elasticizer 75ml (£12.20), Dior Addict Extreme Lipstick in 536 Lucky (£22.80) and Stila Smudgepot in Kitten (£13.00).
Exciting stuff!
I will probably be doing reviews to follow, but here's some close ups and some swatches:
The Stila Palette:

What do you think? £50 voucher well spent? Even if I did got a bit over haha. I'm especially excited to try the PK Elasticizer, my hair neeeds it! Have you tried any of these products?
Let me know!

I'll be doing more detailed reviews of the products once I've had a proper chance to try them out, but I love the shade 'Kitten' and powder was sold out, so I thought I'd give the smudge pot a wee try! :)
