April Beauty Haul

It’s that time of the month again, where I am late to posting my month specific posts. I’ll hopefully have my April Favourites and First Impressions out this week too. But today, I am sharing my April Beauty Haul with you. So, aside from exciting international beauty buys, essence, Catrice and Physicians Formula launched some long-awaited new products, so I snatched them up as soon as I saw them in store. I also went to Kamersvol, which is always a skincare haven for me!

South African Skincare Brands

These are my skincare picks from Kamersvol. Two of the Lulu & Marula products as well as the Skoon Papaya + Pineapple Sherbet were on my Birthday Wishlist, so that justified getting them, right? My bofyriend bought me the Skoon product and I treated myself to the Lulu & Marula ones. I also bought two products from wass, I just love the minimalism. Although my boyfriend says the face oil smells like atchaar. Hahaha!

Moving onto a few odds and ends. I have heard great things about this Palmer’s Skin Therapy Oil, and at the price I definitely needed to give it a try! The Tarte highlighter in Stunner is just gorgeous, isn’t it? And, I bought two of the new Catrice launches. I actually bought two more, but returned them since I was sent a few products by the brand. Lastly my best friend, slipper girl bought a L’Occitane hand cream duo, so I ended up with one, which is perfect for winter!

New Essence Product Launches

Oh essence, you never cease to amaze me! Firstly, how cute is the limited edition Me & My Umbrella blush? I also picked up a few of the new face products. I am hoping the bronzers are similiar to the Lights of Orient ones, because I love those! Lastly, I bought the mascara because I love the packaging, bad I know!

Physicians Formula Insta Ready

I was impatiently waiting for the Physicians Formula InstaReady Range to land in South Africa, and it finally has. I haven’t seen the BB Cream yet, but when I saw the setting spray and spf 30 bronzer, I jumped at it!

There was also a stand of the new Dove Derma Spa range, and after testing them out I settled on a few. They smell amazing and feel luxurious, definitely a winter must-have!

I also picked up some Crabtree & Evelyn Body Lotions, and a candle too!

MAC MS MIN

I must be honest, I only bought this because of the design, and looking back I slightly regret this purchase. I think it was way too expensive for a face powder.

With my purchase above I got the sample sizes of all the Shadescents.

Retail Box Secret Box

There was a new Retail Box Secret Box, and I obviously bought it, it is always such great value.

Sephora South Africa

Sephora Favorites sets are literally my dream come true. I love trying new brands, and I love the mini sizes, because then hopefully I will finish some products. There are a few brands that I have already tried in this set, but I am especially excited for the NARS.

Another Sephora Favorites set is the Give me Some Nude Lip. I bought the previous version too, which you can check out here.
