Post-Christmas sales + Christmas money = more makeup for Emily.
The first two items aren’t actually purchases, they are actually presents, but I wanted to include them because I love them both — I was going to write a separate post with makeup Christmas presents however I only ended up getting these two after all, but anyway, enough rambling…
Debenhams | £20
I’ve been wanting the Naked Basics for so long now, but it’s just been one of those items that I’ve always had my eye on but I’ve just never ended up getting round to buying.
Topshop | £12
This was gift (that I chose myself, mind you) off my bestest chummy Kirsten. I'm a big fan of Topshop makeup, though I only own two lipsticks and now this, so I was super excited to use this. The eyeshadows are gorgeous. The maroony shade on the far left is a very deceiving colour, because when swatched it looks exactly the same as in the pan, but when blended onto the eye on top of the middle shade, it looks a brownish shade. 
Then for some (but not all of) my personal purchases...
Narscosmetics.co.uk | £25
This is the second NARS eyeshadow duo to my collection (mentioned my other one here). The colour to the left is a light champagne colour, and the shade on the right is a pale gold colour. I've only worn this once so far, and I applied the shade on the left all over my lid, and then the shade on the right in the outer third of my eye; I also used the shade "Faint" from the Naked Basics (a medium brown shade) through the crease to deepen it ever so slightly.

I originally intended to buy "Orgasm" as it's less sparkly than Super Orgasm which i ended up buying, but it's still really lovely. I thought it would be more pigmented than it is, as it's quite sheer. It is still really nice though.
YVES SAINT LAURENT ROUGE VOLUPTÉ LIPSTICK IN 34
Boots.com | £24.50
I finally bought a YSL lipstick!! I've been wanting one for so long, 1. because i've heard that they're really good, and 2. mainly because the packaging looks AMAZING. I'm super excited to try this!!
MAC LIPSTICK IN CREME CUP
Maccosmetics.co.uk | £15
A little treat off my mum, bless her. I looked online the night before for this lipstick and it wasn't there so I gathered they'd discontinued it, but then I saw it in store the day I bought this and I was ever so please. This is a gorgeous light pink nude shade which is a perfect everyday shade, or the perfect shade to go with a smokey eye.
COLLECTION GLAM CRYSTALS GLITTER LINER IN ROCK CHICK
Superdrug.com | £2.99
This is my third of these now. This is a black liner with silver glitter speckles in it. I love these because they're so multipurpose, plus how cheap they are!
L'OREAL CARESSE LIPSTICK IN 203 ROCK 'N' MAUVE
Boots.com | £7.99
I wanted to branch out, in terms of lipstick colours, a little bit by going for a purplish lipstick. The colour reminds me of Mac Up The Amp actually, but i'd rather see if I like that kind of colour on me by spending a little less than Mac lipstick price.
