ASOS Cosmetics Haul for April, 2013

Last Thursday I placed two (because one would have made too much sense, Sophie) orders with ASOS. There's been a few things that I wanted to pick up from there for a while so I took the pay check from new job and got right to it! 

I placed the first order and then, after trying the Rimmel London Match Perfection Foundation and realising I bought it in the wrong colour (click here to see my haul), I decided to place a second one. I also took that opportunity to pick something else up because I had to make it worth it, right? Right!

You probably don't want to know why I bought what I bought, just what I bought so, with that being said, let's get into it!

Rimmel London Apocalips Lip Lacquer in Luna and Nova
There are a lot of English YouTubers and bloggers that I really like and I don't think I've seen one that hasn't mentioned at least one of these products in recent months. I wanted to pick up a third colour, Celestial, but they were out of stock so I settled on two, Luna and Nova. I'm still playing around with them to try and determine the staying power etc but I'm enjoying themselves so far.
These were $7.16 each

Rimmel London ScandalEyes Shadow Stick in Bulletproof Beige 
I've been really impressed with a lot of Rimmel's stuff so, after hearing about these also, I decided to give one a try. This seems to be the only neutral colour in the line but that's okay!
This was $7.16

Rimmel London Kate Moss Lating Finish Lipstick in #016
This lipstick has been making the rounds in the blogisphere lately. My Priceline is always out of stock of this colour so I admitted defeat, said goodbye to the points and ordered it online. 
This was $8.75

Korres Lip Butter in Pomegranate 
I have one of these lip butters already, Quince, and I absolutely love it. It's amazing, especially before bed, but the tint was getting all over my pillowcase as it's perfect for before bed. I decided to pick up a more suitable colour and, even though it's not clear, it's a very sheer wash of colour. This is the product I placed the whole order for.
This was $12.76 

Rimmel London Match Perfection Foundation in Ivory 
As I said, I picked this up because I initially bought the foundation in the wrong colour. I've since decided I don't really like the product but I'll give it another chance now I have the right shade!
This was $11.15

Korres Pomegranate Cleansing & Make Up Remover Wipes for Oily & Combination Skin
I recently ran out of my Clean & Clear Deep Action Cleansing Wipes so I decided to give these a try instead because why not. 
These were $11.16

Rimmel London Apocalips Lip Lacquer in Luna | Rimmel London Apocalips Lip Lacquer in  Nova | Rimmel London ScandalEyes Shadow Stick in Bulletproof Beige | Rimmel London Kate Moss Lating Finish Lipstick in #016 | Korres Lip Butter in Pomegranate

All in all, I'm really happy with my order. This has given me the opportunity to try a selection of products I've not yet tried, something which is always exciting. Stay tuned for reviews, as well as product comparisons and other exciting things. I have a lot of ideas at the moment. 

Have you received any hauls lately? What? Do you order much make up on ASOS? 

Always look your best,
Sophie

    1. I'm sure they will eventually. It just feels like it takes forever for anything to get to us! It's a beautiful colour. x

  3. Nice haul and the Apocalips are nice but I'm a bit disappointed that none of them are long-wearing!
