Today’s the last day of my Reading Week, and I’ve spent the entire break taking photos upon photos upon photos… needless to say, I think my brain’s on a bit of a beauty overload.

So, instead of a review, or a look, or even a collage, I’ve got a bunch of images for you. These are the ones that wouldn’t be enough to make a post on their own but that I’ve still deemed share-worthy. Enjoy!

Clinique lipstick swatches

From left to right: Colour Surge Bare Brilliance in Pink Beach, Moisture Surge SPF 15 in Fizzy, Colour Surge Bare Brilliance in Blushing Coral.

All three of these shades have been discontinued (hence, nothing that I’d include in a “real” post), but discontinued GWP tubes are often found on the cheap through sites like Ebay and All Cosmetics Wholesale… so I thought you may like to see these anyways!

My current favourite mascara combination

Marcelle Ultimate Lash topped with L’Oreal Beauty Tubes. I prefer a lash that is full, but still very natural, and these two are perfect! Ultimate Lash smudges very little on me when worn alone (and usually only after 8+ hours at that), but when it’s topped with Beauty Tubes, I get absolutely no smudging, running, or flaking… even after fourteen hours plus a nap.

MAC Plum Perfect

I recently caught wind of the fact that these are being discontinued, so on the off-chance that your local stores may have them, here’s a quick swatch! Plum Perfect was my “intro red” lip product, ages and ages ago… and these photos are just as old. (I replaced my camera over a year ago, and they were taken before then. So, please excuse the quality!)

The Fragrance Army

This is what I have on my dresser at the moment. What have you been loving?

I’m happy to say that I basically did absolutely nothing this week – a much needed break. I dread going back to class on Monday! How’s your week going? Any exciting weekend plans?
