New Haul: Makeup products acquired for Oct/Nov

Hi everyone. just wanted to share with you my recent acquisitions in my kit.


Sleek pout paint




















This comes in 11 colours and i have 7. By my calculation i am expecting the Peek a bloo and Cloud nine to be the first ones to get exhausted since they are used to darken and lighten colours of the other pout paint as well as lipstick in general. A little drop goes a long way.



Elf brushes




















Starting from the top that is the ELF kabuki face brush, Stipple brush, Angled eye liner brush. A Makeup Artist can never have enough brushes (LOL).



Sephora Lash application kit





















This came with a pair of scissors, tweezers(you can never have too many), a lash applicator (this is what i need to apply lashes on myself and it works!!!), 10 birchwood sticks to help set the lashes.


Threading kit

Threading kit in a bag







































My recently acquired threading kit which contains two packs of threading thread (lol, how does that sound), talcum powder (to avoid sweaty hands), tweezers (never enough), eye brow stencils, one MUA eyeshadow,  a pair of magnifying glasses ( i think i like this, i look cute in them). The magnifying glasses are to be able to see what i am doing properly when threading brows or when i start my lash extension services (watch this space). The glasses will make sure i do not strain my eyes when working.

okay so i have given you a breakdown of my additions for the month. Enjoy and have a great day.

Haul from Guru Makeup Emporium and other places

I love my makeup box ( I have a cute pink trolley) but sometimes i am carrying around too much baggage. Seeing that i will be travelling more, i have started the process of compacting my kit. This weekend i will be doing a lot of depot-ting and transfer of products.


My friend/Make-up Artist Kike just got back from the UK and during her stay, she was gracious enough to get me some stuff that i needed( thanks for all you did ... mwah mwah).

First stop for her was Guru Makeup Emporium. check their site here Guru Makeup Emporium . If you are ever in the UK you must have a look.


Beauty blender and cleanser combo
















If you don't know about this sponge you can click on this link (Beauty Blender) to get more info. By the way this picture i have on my blog does not do enough justice. it is just as pretty as it looks on the website pictures. Review of the sponge and cleanser coming soon...


Paris Berlin professional studio bag

A snap shot of the bag 

I wanted a bag that i can decide to sling over my shoulders as well as hold like a briefcase. I had earlier in the year purchased some of the clear bags  so i guess having the bag now makes it all come together. Review of the Paris Berlin studio bag coming up .......  it has a lot of room and well padded. I believe it will fit my new compact kit.


Kroylan Moustache wax
















This particular buy is an experiment.I will keep you all updated.

Powder sifters and storage box
















The powder sifters are from Guru Makeup Emporium but the storage boxes were from somewhere else. Instead of dragging around my loose powders and spilling it everywhere i will be using this to save space. The storage boxes(i have four of them) are to preserve my cream products that i will be depot-ting.

Loose pigments
















This loose pigments are from Super Drug (Dazzle me and 2 true). Colours are purple, bright orange, hot pink, light green. Review will be coming up soon


Face Paints push up sticks
















I got these from Amigos Supermarket in Abuja. Colours are Red , Black, White, Yellow, Green, Blue.

For the weekend i will be having fun with my kit. Thanks to Kike.
