It is time once again for my monthly posts, well it was actually time a week ago, but work, life, you know how it goes. So, we will start with my July Beauty Haul, and hopefully my Favourites and First Impressions posts will follow shortly.
Sephora launched a new Give Me Some Nude Lip Kit, so of course I had to buy it. I love Sephora Favorites Kits since I get to try a bunch of new products in nice deluxe sizes at an affordable price.
If you haven’t already heard, Milani is in South Africa. You can shop it online here. I bought the Strobelight Instant Glow Powder in Dayglow, and received the eyeliner as a free gift. I am hoping they bring in more products soon, especially the Amore Matte Lip Creme. I bought the Conceal + Perfect 2 in 1 Foundation + Concealer and Baked Blush in Luminoso a while ago, so I will be doing a Milani review post soon.
One of my favourite things about shopping on Sephora is the gift with purchase. This Benefit Dandelion Kit was one of my recent gifts with purchase!
I also bought the Clinique Chubby in the Nude Foundation Stick which I have heard great things about, and a Soft Matte Lipstick.
I have wanted to try the First Aid Beauty Facial Radiance Pads, so when I saw this set I had to get it!
I also bought this Origins Skin Starters set, and the sizes are pretty impressive!
When I swatched the Estee Lauder Liquid Lip Potion I knew I had to have them! They are so pigmented!
I also finally got my hands on the NYX Total Control Drop Foundation and another Lancome Matte Shaker. I also bought The Ulti-Matte Lipstick from 3INA. These were from the Dark Holiday Collection I reviewed a while back, and were on sale!
And some bits and bobs. Avene Cicalfate which is apparently good for use after skin treatments such as peels, etc. I will be testing it out after my next Dermapen Treatment. I have wanted a few more Matte Lip Liquids from The Body Shop, as well as the Buffing Brush. I also bought the Rimmel Brow Shake which has been on my wishlist for a while, as well as some of the new essence launches.
Unfortunately my June Sephora Play Box was a bit of a mess up, since Aramex discarded 3 of my 6 items. I still don’t understand why they discarded my Fresh Rose Mask, claiming it is liquid!
Next up I bought some of the new Maybelline launches. The Master Fix Loose Powder, and Master Blush and Master Bronze.
I am so happy with how this picture of my new Bobbi Brown products turned out! All of these products have been on my wishlist for a while, so I took the plunge!
And lastly, the last of the Balm in SA from Stuttafords. I stocked up since this brand will no longer be available unless another retailer decides to bring it in again. Please please Retail Box!
And that is my July Beauty Haul!
Thanks for popping by, and don’t forget to enter the Aloe Unique Giveaway happening as you read this!
Yesss Milani !!!
Placed my first foundation order today.
🙂
And free shipping in SA for the month of August :-))
Yes! I wish they had more of the range though. But soon I hope!
Ooooohhh how do you like it?
Stunning haul! The new Maybelline blush and bronzer look pretty. Let us know how they are when you use them xo
Thanks Lucinda, yup I swatched them in store and they looked amazing! So soft and buttery and pigmented.
Hi Azraa
Love your blog and thank you for the lovely content. Quick question, did you get the NYX control foundation here in South Africa? I’m also trying to hold of it.

Hi, I bought it from one of the bloggers who got it in a press drop. It should be launching in the next few weeks though.
