Blogger Enabled Purchases I'm Loving!

blogger_enabled_purchses

A huge part of blogging for me, aside from actually writing blog posts, is reading blogs! I'm talking a lot of blogs; possibly 200+ that I actually keep up with. That may seem a little crazy but blogs inspire me so much, not only in my own blogging but in life. But the outcome a lot of the time from so much blog reading is a lighter bank balance!

So today I thought I'd share with you five products I was inspired to buy that I now love and the blogs that enabled them purchases. 

Rimmel Wake Me Up Foundation in 010 Light Porcelain
£7.99 - Light shade in Tesco or Amazon here
After reading Miss Makeup Magpie's review (here) on the then new lighter shade of this foundation, I was convinced in to buying it! Her clear swatches really won me over. I may have taken over 6 months to buy it but once I'd swatched it against my own skin I was amazed! This really is an amazingly light toned foundation perfect for pale skinned girls like myself. I've since purchased another Rimmel foundation in the same shade but love using the Wake Me Up foundation on tired skin days when I need a radiant glow to my skin. A must try if you have yet to try this foundation out!  

COLAB Dry Shampoo 
Mini £1.99 - Superdrug here
This was of course an enabled purchase by Ruth from A Model Recommends who is both the face and creator of this product! As I know Ruth doesn't do things by halves and is beyond passionate about all things beauty. Now being a lover of Batiste Dry Shampoo for many years I really didn't expect to love anything more... but it seems I can, as I was amazed at how good the mini CoLab Dry Shampoo were that I tried - great scents, amazing at soaking up hair oils and non-itchy on the scalp if you get over zealous with it! Will be buying a full-size can of this and ditching Batiste from now on!

Milton-Lloyd Stars Parfum de Toilette 
£3.40 - Amazon here 
This was a recent-ish amazing find with the help of Sophie from Makeup Wonderland after she posted an image of a little fragrance haul on Instagram. I'm definitely a lover of cheap scents as long as they smell good, so I was so pleased to discover Milton-Lloyd fragrances that smell exactly like some popular high-end scents. I decided to go for 'Stars' which smells exactly like one of my favourite fragrances - Thierry Mugler's Alien. I really couldn't believe it. The silliage of course isn't as good but good enough and I really can't see a reason to purchase a pricey bottle of Alien, again. Worth looking at the other Milton Lloyd scents through the link and reading the reviews to find out what fragrances they are dupes for!

Montagne Jeunesse Black Seaweed Peel-off Masque  
£1.00 - Boots here or Amazon here 
After reading Miss Budget Beauty's review of this face mask (here) I knew I had to buy it. This without a doubt would have been a mask I'd normally avoid because seaweed anything just doesn't appeal and a black face mask is bound to be messy. But as Khila stated it was a good peeling mask and she liked the results I picked it up. I will spare you a review of the application and tell you that it was such a satisfying mask to peel off and yes, it does actually leave you with such soft skin. I also grossly spotted a few blackheads stuck to the face mask as I peeled it away so it would be ideal as a deep cleansing mask for anyone with oily skin. Will 100% be buying this again.

Bourjois Color Edition 24H Eyeshadow
£6.99 - Boots here
This was definitely a collective enabled purchase because last year I read so many great reviews on these eyeshadows that I decided to buy two of my favourite looking shades at the end of 2014. I went for a beautiful glistening plum shade with Prune Nocturne and the most shimmery gilded gold in Or Desir. The firm cream to powder formula of these was just what I expected and blended and stayed a dream on my lids. I'm not too much of a fan of using other eyeshadows with these as I like to swipe these over the eyelids and blend out with either my fingertip or a small fluffy blending brush. These also stay all day... though not 24 hours! Next shade on my list to buy is Petale de Glace; it looks amazing!

Such an unique topic idea! I have honestly never tried one of the products you showed here, but the Bourjois cream eyeshadows look super good to me!
I recently bought the Hourglass ambient lighting blush in Dim Infusion after reading many many blog posts about them and I fell in love. Great post!
This is such a clever post as it allows you to find new products as well as new bloggers you may not be familiar with. I love the Rimmel Wake me up foundation, it is one I always go back to.

Bloggers actually got me into makeup and I always want to try something new after reading post about it. For almost my every make up purchase I can say that bloggers made me do it, cause most of the products I actually don't use on daily bases

Ah so guilty of this too. I recently went and bought a Konjac sponge because it was featured so heavily on blog posts! And pretty sure all my LUSH products in the shower were a result of blogs I've read too haha. Glad I'm not the only one :)

I always get more tempted to buy things that are loved by bloggers, usually everything is as good as they say so i've found some really great products I probably wouldnt have tried :)

I really have to get that Rimmel Foundation, because it seems so awesome :) The product I bought because of blogging/reading blogs is most definitely Baby Lips, but I also developed a love for Catrice foundations for the same reason ;)
Tomorrow I'm getting MUJI finally! :D I've been watching and reading reviews and I've been thinking so much about it that I have to get it! I'm pretty sure I'll love it :)
When thinking about products which I already have, hmm... let me see: UD Naked palette, MAC Russian Red, theBalm Hot Mama... there are probably plenty other products as well, but these crossed my mind right now. :)
I recieved the Black Seaweed Peel Off Mask from Influenster and I loved it. Peel off masks are just so fun and satisfying, and the black color was funky and fun!
I love the Rimmel Wake Me Up foundation, it is my saviour!! x

Everytime I wear my wake me up foundation I get comments about how great my skin looks! It's fab!
Definitely Rimmel Wake Me Up! : )
No doubt I will be picking up one of the new Bourjois shades from their Rouge Velvet line, I saw some amazing swatches on a blog and I need to have the red shade in my life :)
