maybelline purchases♥

I popped into Boots yesterday to prove to myself that I could leave empty handed....well apparently, I can't! I don't really mind though as I spotted some gorgeous new products from Maybelline that were just too pretty to pass up.
Peach and Berry

These are the new 'dream touch blushes'. I think these are brand new altogether, not just new colours. Maybelline have had 'mousse' blushes before which I really didn't like. These ones though, are gorgeous, especially 'peach'. They are buttery soft, none greasy, very pigmented and a bargainous £6.49 each. Full review to come.
I think there were 4, or even 5 new Color Sensational lipsticks. I wanted three, but showed some restraint and opted for 'Rosy dream', a soft, milky pink. These type of colour's don't tend to suit me, so we'll see how it looks when I have a play tomorrow. They had a nude one which was gorgeous! Think I might have to get that one tomorrow... £7.19
and finally I purchased two nail polishes. Deep violet and Hot salsa.

I'm not overly fond of 'Deep violet', I let my mum choose that one because I am very kind, he he. If you like it though, let me know and I'll do a NOTD. Hot salsa however, is a gorgeous bright coral red, with a hint of pink. I cannot wait to try this one out... maybe tonight! £4.09 each..

Of course I will be reviewing these products once I have had the chance to form a proper opinion on them.

Thank you for reading

  1. Those Maybelline blushes are awesome. Can I just ask where you found the shade names? I was given one by a friend and I love it, but can't for the life of me find the name on the jar!

  3. It's not on the jar, which seems silly! There's an apricot one that in almost identical, so they should really add names. I know the names because these two were on a seperate 'NEW' stand in the middle of the shop. Hope this helps :)

  7. That peach one looks so pretty! I wasn't a fan of the mousse either, but I love the packaging so I might check it out. Is that a new range of the Colour Sensational lippies? I've yet to try those! I can never decide on the colour cuz there's so many!

  9. Glad everyone seems to be loving the blushes! They are gorge. I actually forgot to use one this morning though, in a rush! Peach is the nicest ;)

    @Yu. I don't know if they are new range, but they have a new lid. It has a rainbow type of effect in the sun. Very gorgeous! I will look into it and update the post if I find any info :)

  12. The peach blush looks gorgeous and I may have to go pick up Rosy Dream now! It looks lovely and creamy ~ I usually find Maybelline's lippies a little frosty so this is great x

  15. I love the texture of the mousse products, it's too bad they test on animals!
