Body Shop Haul - Brush With Fashion LE & Giveaway Winner.

There was a Groupon offer on two days ago where you paid £12 for a £30 voucher for The Body Shop. This was the first time I'd actually bought anything from Groupon and I only spotted it at the end of the day. I think this is such an amazing deal, especially as the Spring collection is out, Brush With Fashion. The Body Shop has teamed up with London College of Fashion to make "sustainable, cruelty-free makeup". I'd seen this collection on blogs at the end of last year, and I thought it looked good. 


In the end, the only product I decided to buy from the collection was A La Mode Eye Palette which has four lovely shades, a mini eye liner and a mini brush as well as a big mirror. 
I look at the other items in the collection, which you can see here, but I already have lots of brown eyeshadows and so many lipglosses so it didn't really appeal to me. 
I love the packaging on the palette, which was designed by the London College of Fashion. 
The eyeshadows are really pigmented, and for once the brush actually looks like it could be used... 


I also bought a lovely rose gold blush. I know I have so many blushes, I can't resist buying them. This is a lovely pink colour with a fine gold glitter through it. I can't wait to try this. 
The Body Shop have quite a few really nice blushes that I want to buy so if this one lasts well and looks nice I think I'll get a few more. 
The lovely Body Shop staff also told me if I bought any two makeup products, I got a free black eyeliner with a smudge applicator on the end. Win! 

L:R Limited Collection for eyes: minimalist white, pret-a-pink, futuristic silver, little black dress

L-R: Cheek colour in 04, The Body Shop Eye Definer. 


I also got this Warming Mineral Mask, I love warming masks and kaolin clay so I'm really excited about this. Clay masks tend to bring all the impurities to the surface of your skin, which results in spots. It will help in the long run, but obviously don't use a clay mask the day before your birthday night out or you'll look like a spotty teen. Grim. 
I will use this once or twice a week for the next few weeks and report back. Stay tuned. 


Giveaway. 
The winner of my giveaway was Steph! I'll send you an email.
