How Much Is My Face Worth?

Good Afternoon Dolls,

Before you question how vain I might be from the title, this is actually a popular beauty tag and not me telling you how beautiful I am, promise! I thought that whilst this was circulating the blogisphere again, I would join in. Incase you didn't know, this tag is where you calculate the cost of what products used on your face - and then scare yourself silly at the outcome!





(This is only iPhone quality, my camera is still packed from Holiday!)



So, just how much is it worth?

Yves Saint Laurent Touche Eclat in 1 (£25.00)
No7 Stay Perfect Foundation in Calico (£8.00) I usually swap between NARS Sheer Glow, but I thought as I was only running errands that I would use this one!
Soap & Glory Hocus Focus (£13.00)
Collection 2000 Concealer in Light (Quite the celebrity of the Beauty world) (£3.99)
Stila Prime Pot (£12.00)
Benefit Brow Zings (£23.00)
Collection 2000 Clear Mascara (£1.99)
Maybelline Colour 24 Hour Tattoo in On and On Bronze (£4.95)
Rimmel Special Eyes Trio in Orion (£6.49)
Maybelline Master Smoky in Smoky Chocolate (£5.99)
Maybelline Falsies (£7.99)
Rimmel Soft Kohl Eyeliner Pencil in White (£2.99)
Benefit Erase Paste (£19.50)
MAC Studio Fix Powder in NW20 (£21.50)
NARS Laguna Bronzer (£26.50)
MAC Mineralize Skin Finish in Soft and Gentle (£22.50)
Maybelline Shocking Coral Lipstick (£7.99)

Annnndddd breathe!

In total, that makes my face worth £213.38! Which is crazy scary and quite concerning! Maybe I won't invest in the Naked Palette just yet...

So how much do you reckon your face is worth?

No7, did you say free gift?!

Oh dear dolls, went on a little shopping trip didn't I?

Luckily, I did not go crazy, but I did pick up some super cute stuff for holiday! However, this is not a haul and I'm only here to show a little present that No7 gave to me.



Have any of you heard about their new mascara, Stay-Perfect Long Lasting Volume? Immediately I was drawn to the gold packaging (just call me 'queen of tack') and kept my eye on it for a couple of weeks. I'm not a huge enthusiast for mascaras, I usually stick to my Maybelline falsies, but when I walked into boots the other day and saw they had a promotion on, I was hardly going to say no to a free gift!

The first thing that sprung to my mind when I saw this mascara was Yves Saint Laurent. That gold packaging did seem awfully familiar. It has a plastic brush, which I generally tend to avoid because they clump my lashes together. However, I've got my fingers crossed that this is a good product!





Anyway, on to the free gift. Firstly, They gave me a free make-over that I've booked as a post-holiday cheer up, and secondly they gave me a mini box of goodies. Ahhhh! This is what I found,

Stay Perfect Metallic Eyes Pencil




(Perfect for a smoky eye, I think)

Stay Perfect Lipstick 'Classic Rose'







(Perfect for autumn, am I right?)

Stay Perfect Mascara Exceptional Definition





Stay Perfect Eyeshadow 'Black Gold'



(Okay, this colour seems absolutely gorgeous in person, until I swatched it!)


(Left-Right: Classic Rose, Black Gold, Metallic Eye Pencil)

Defiantly think I am most excited by the eye pencil and lipstick!

Do you reckon you'll be rushing down to Boots to pick up this mascara and goody box?
