Mega Beauty Haul – Christmas Presents, Splurges and Lucky Winnings!

By Triedandtestedblogger @triedtestedblog

Hi everyone,

It’s been quite a while since I last shared some beauty hauls with you all! I almost always post them on my Instagram page so if you aren’t following me there, definitely do as I also share lots of beauty news, product pics and quick thoughts on items.

pageOver the past few months I’ve been very fortunate and lucky to win some incredible prizes and be given some gorgeous gifts as well! I also splashed out to purchase a few more beauty products too, not that I needed any more!

I was lucky enough to be given the Hourglass Ambient Lighting Palette as a Birthday gift and recently also purchased the Blush Palette and Eyeshadow Palette to complete the Hourglass trio!

Am now the proud owner of these beauties! My best friend purchased the Hourglass Ambient Lighting Palette as my belated Birthday gift, the Too Faced Shadow Insurance is the latest in the hunt for a primer to combat my oily eyelids and the One Direction fragrance was on clearance for only $25 for 100ml and it smells lovely so I thought, why not!

The gorgeous Hourglass Modernist Infinity Eyeshadow Palette! Still haven't worked up the courage to actually use it because it's so stunning! Do you ever put off trying something because you don't wait to ruin it's appearance?

The gorgeous Ambient Lighting Blush Palette by Hourglass! I'm not really the biggest blush person but I just had to have this palette to complete the set with the Ambient Powder Palette and Modernist Infinity Eyeshadow Palette!

This Christmas I received some amazing beauty products – the Lorac Mega Pro Eyeshadow Palette and my first ever NARS product!

Received my Christmas present from the best friend early and it's absolutely amazing! I now know why there is so much hype around the Lorac Mega Pro Palette!

In the space of just a few months, I won an incredible and ridiculous amount of beauty products that I am so grateful for! I definitely dont need any more beauty products as these will last me a lifetime but I’m sure I’ll always find a reason to go shopping ;)

Thank you so much for my prize and extra goodies @amorganica! Can't wait to give everything a go!

My @freshdiscoverbeauty haul thanks to the voucher I won to use at #FOSN! These are my very first By Terry, Bobbi Brown and Guerlain products! Also ordered a NARS eyeshadow duo but it was out of stock so I'll have to wait for stock to arrive to re-order it and I cant wait as it'll be my first NARS product too! Thank you so much @freshdiscoverbeauty for holding such a great competition!
