Lol. Call me a nerd,
but I’m quite proud of that pun! It’s the journo in me bursting to get out!
Anyhow onto the
products!
I really was a Stila
virgin, but I’ve always wanted to try the brand out as I don’t think I’ve ever
heard a bad review. However where I like to come across products in Boots,
Superdrug or in the beauty hall of a department store, Stila never really seem
to be, well, anywhere.
The last place I
thought I’d find some Stila is in Tk Maxx. But I did. I’m normally useless at finding
gems in Tk Maxx, my mum has that gift, but I get weary and irritated. But it
was last Thursday evening just after I handed in all my coursework for Semester
B and my ‘summer’ had just officially begun (despite the weather) so I was
feeling free – cue shopping addiction flare up.
I normally only go to
Tk Maxx to accompany my mum, and that’s exactly what I was doing, except this
time as I was perusing the beauty section, I noticed, wow I know these brands,
Stila, Estee Lauder, Nails Inc (which I also picked up and will post about) and
Pixi, and more… I couldn’t believe my eyes, and all for chunks off of the rrp!
I had to think
rationally, otherwise I would have probably slightly over done it, so I stuck
to two purchases and these were just one of them.
You see, in Tk Maxx
they package up beauty items into bundles – and these three Stila products cost
£7.99, yes £7.99 for all of them!
I suppose the down
side is that you can’t pick and choose which ones you want, but I’m quite happy
with the ones I got and for £7.99 I can’t really complain. So in my ‘package’ I
got:
-
Major Lash
Mascara
Convertible
Eye Colour in Berry
Silk
Shadow Wash in Kitten
I looked around the
internet and the combined rrp for these products is around £38 so I got about
£30 off! Absolute bargain! The products are great too, really can’t complain, I
would have thought that with them being that
cheap, there must be a catch! But so far, there really isn’t.
Above is a look that I
did with all three products, along with MAC’s paint pot in Constructivist.
I really really like
these products, but I’m not sure I’d buy them full price, I think that a major
part of what I like about them is the price I paid.
But the best thing is
that I’ve tried Stila. Keeks no longer equals, Stila Virgin. I popped my Stila
cherry if you will. Ok, ok I’ll stop it there before I pun myself into
oblivion!
Toodles,
Love Keeks xo
