Superdrug Haul

So I went into Superdrug the other day for a new everyday foundation for work and I ended up buying all of this! Hmm, lets just say I won't be buying any more makeup for a while. I always think with makuep, it never looks like you've spent a lot but this little lot came to over £60.00!

Anyway, I absolutely love the Maxfactor Skin Luminizer foundation but the shade I currently have is more for Summer time as it is a little dark for this time of year so I got the shade Beige and it is absolutely perfect for my skin colour. I was actually going off this foundation a little but since finding the perfect shade I have fallen in love again. It's amazing what a difference just one shade lighter can make to the finish and look of your makeup. Whilst there I also picked up this L'Oreal True Match Foundation as I don't really like using my more expensive foundations for work, and first impressions are quite good. I find it gives more of a satin finish to the face and it is a really thin liquid consistency which I don't usually like but it seems to work quite well for this foundation. The coverage I personally would say is more light to medium but it is totally buildable and blends ultra easy.

I have heard some great things about this Rimmel Wake Me Up Concealer so I felt I needed to try it. I got the shade soft beige which is just perfect for under my eye area. The consistency is lovely and smooth, not too thick but thin enough to blend and work with easily. I am really getting into Rimmel at the moment and picked up this Scandaleyes Waterproof Kohl eye liner in shade Nude. This is really lovely for applying to the water line and giving eyes a brighter look. Then I also got four, yes count them, four lip liners. I have never really been one for a lip liner but since I have been wearing some brighter coloured lip sticks recently I have felt the need to apply lip liner. These are lovely as they are a soft creamy consistency so apply really well and don't drag the lip, I would definitely recommend shade East End Snob. 

Then the last couple of items I picked up were this Bourjois Rouge Edition Velvet Lipstick in shade Hot Pepper, so far I have really been loving this lip stick. It's a really bright more orange toned red, I have really been loving the red lip look recently so this has been a massive hit. And finally the last item picked up was this L'Oreal Super Liner Smokissime, the only way to describe this is by saying it has a foam pointed nib which is covered in brown smokey shadow. You can apply all over the lid as an eye shadow or use the pointed nib for precision and use an eye liner. So far I am really liking this, it takes quite a lot of blending but looks great when applied properly.

So that's my Superdrug haul, have you got any of these items?
