Real Techniques Brushes

Wow I'm really on a roll today with the posts. I think I just had too much to update on but because of school and work I just don't have the time to space out my posts so as soon as I have a chance I may as well get it all out. Sorry!

But I just wanted to let you guys know that today I received my package from iherb containing Real Technique makeup brushes by Samantha Chapman. Actually, the first time I came across these brushes was in Priceline but my gosh they were expensive. The Core collection was $44.99 and just the singular brushes were almost $20 I think. I'm so glad I didnt purchase them there and then though (something I would usually do) because I really wanted to read reviews on them first before I spent the $$$. Lucky I did though because not only did it assure me that the brushes were good quality but I also discovered that I should purchase them from iherb.com for less than half the price!

I ended up buying the Core collection, Starter set, blush brush and stippling brush and all this costed me just a few dollars more than what it would be if I just bought the Core collection at Priceline. I dont know about you but I always feel awesome after discovering bargains!
Now I know that if it's your first time browsing iherb.com the website might look a little dodgy and not flashy, but I speak from experience that i had a smooth transaction and although hesitant to purchase from the site, it all worked out fine and as you can see the brushes came all in one piece.
I live in Melbourne and it took just under 2 weeks for them to arrive. I've had a feel and this brushes are amazingly soft, I cant wait to try them out!
If you're thinking of buying from the site, they also sell Ecotool brushes, Physician's Formula makeup and various other brands, just do some browsing and you may be surprised by what you'll find. Here's a coupon code as well for $5 off your first order. BIM269. 

Have you guys tried or are interested in trying out the real techniques brushes? let me know! x 

 

 

Shoes, Shoes, Shoes!

So to start of my 'welcome back to blogging' post I just wanted to share with you guys two pairs of heels that i recently picked up! If you live in Melbourne you'll know where I'm talking about. The first pair i picked up a few weeks ago during the Chadstone VIP sale, i was actually struggling that night to find something, anything i liked and i came across this pair of heels and it just caught my eye, but not only that, it looked even nicer on and even though i had no real reason for a new pair of heels i couldnt resist the deal. i think it went from its original price of $79.99 down to $55.00. I couldnt walk away from it so.. i bought it :)

Also, yesterday i went to the Tony Bianco warehouse sale down at Collingwood, I actually wasn't planning to go as I really don't need more shoes and especially heels, I dont really go out too much that I would need countless pairs of heels but as it turns out, I can't resist hype and this sale was getting a lot of hype so typical me, I dragged my bf along and ended up waiting in line to get in, crazy right?! The wait wasn't too long though and actually I was a little disappointed as prior to going in I saw girls walking out with bags and bags of shoes and handbags, but my experience was a little more plain and i ended up leaving with just one pair of shoes. I actually found a few pairs i did like but funnily enough they were all in the same colour so i couldnt justify getting different pairs of shoes in the same colour. Oh well, i was still happy with my purchase :) These were $40 and are super comfy!

Now I really need to lay off the shoe shopping, here's hoping i stay away from shoe stores for awhile!
