Haul post: MAC, Butter London & more BYS

This post is a little overdue but here's what I bought when I was away in Brisbane last Sunday-Monday. It was a little bit of luxe haul this time...


First a quick look at the nail polish which I found in a city mall pharmacy.  BYS Hot Corals looks more red in these pics but as per its name it's a coral jelly polish with sparse silver glitter. And - this is my first Butter London nail polish in the colour everyone's been talking and blogging about, No More Waity, Katie.  NMWK is a lavendar shade full of pale lavendar glitter.  I can't wait to wear these but I've got to wait for the days to be sunny again to do them justice!  The BYS set me back only $4AUD, the Butter London a more considerable $22AUD...


Now a close up on the MAC eye shadows.  These are from the latest Semi Precious collection and I knew I wouldn't be able to resist them.  I bought these for $40AUD each (naughty me, I know)...
Clarity


Golden Gaze


Finally here are the obligatory swatches in daylight and lamplight. I hit both ends of the spectrum with Clarity a cool toned glittery shadow and Golden Gaze a glamorously warm blackened gold.  The pigmentation of these is every bit as rich as you'd expect with MAC shadows.

That's all for now.  Thanks for looking!

  3. Thank god most of the shadows were sold out when I went to the MAC counter, otherwise I may have gone crazy. I ended up with just the Gem of Roses lipstick!

    Note to self: go check out the butter london polishes.

  8. @Grace - Such a gorgeous collection. If it wasn't for the price tag I would have bought more!

    @reeree - It was definitely a now or never purchase with these, I knew they'd sell out quickly! Gem of Roses is a gorgeous lippy, my fave from the collection :)

    @rose - Thanks, I have a weakness for pretty things :)

    @Priyanka - I'll post this as soon as I've got a good sunny day to do the swatching.

    @crazy4makeup - Thanks, I'm looking forward to wearing them, they're even more stunning IRL :)

    @hermetic - Thanks and welcome to my blog. I especially love nail polish but also love lots of other pretty things and I enjoy sharing these with everyone :)

  10. @SilhouetteScreams - I wish I had your willpower. I'm a bit hopeless at the moment, my mind keeps telling me, "I need these lovely things, and these, and these..." LOL
