Essence I Love Berlin & Catrice Urban Baroque Haul



Last week I stopped by Trekpleister and Kruidvat and picked up some items from the Essence - I Love Berlin collection and the Catrice - Urban Baroque Collection.

Essence - I Love Berlin:



The Pallette in 01 Style Victim



One of the polishes in 02 I'm A Berliner



Catrice - Urban Baroque:



The Illuminating Powder in C01 Masquerade Ball



One of the Nail Polishes in C04 Biscuits & Cupcakes



And last, but not least, two of the lipsticks, in C02 Elisabeth and C03 Victoria




I love the packaging for both the Essence and the Catrice products.
So far I haven't tried the palette yet, but the colours look nice.
The green nail polish, I have tried on my toe nails and they are now a fantastic bright green :D.
I Haven't tried the Illuminating Powder either, but I have high hopes for that one.
The light pink polish is now on my nails and looks very pretty.
Also, the lipsticks are awesome too.
I tried them yesterday and I love them.
I'm thinking I will need to buy the other colour too ;).

When I will be feeling better (got hit by the flue again *sigh*) I will do a post with more product pics and swatches :D!

Have a nice sunday!

Until next time,

Freya

Haul: Action Beauty Products

Yesterday, I went shopping at the Action.
They sell regular and expensive brand for small prices, the only thing that's different is that the packaging is in another language, like Polish or Russian.


I picked up a lightly tanning body lotion bye AXE (a brand especially for men).


It cost me only €0.69!

I also bought 2 blue Waterproof Body Art Pencils by L'Oreal, €0,29 each.


Action also has their own make-up brand, called "Max".
I bought some false lashes (set of 3) for €0,79.



And 2 nail polishes €0,45 each.


One is a dark, shimmery orange and the other one is a bright pink without shimmer.

And a set of 6 neon nailpolishes, also by Max (€1,39).




The colours are really bright and have shimmer in them.
I really like the colours and the polishes actually turn out to be really good (although I never expected that).

And last, but not least, I bought a bottle of Aloe Vera Gel (€1,79) which is great as an after-sun product.



Since it was really cheap, I could afford to shop a little without feeling guilty (I'm on a tight budget right now).
Essentially, I got all this for only €6,14 , so yay :D.

I'm thinking I might include some of these products in my first give-away, if these products prove to be any good.
Would that be a good idea, you think?

Do you occasionally shop at Action, or other cheap stores?
And do you like make-up by Max?
Let me know what you think.

Until next time,

Freya
