Have a go at Ebaying and my time at home!...

Hello Everyone!
I hope your all doing well! I'm back in London now with a zillion pieces of coursework to hand in so wont be able to be my usual blogging self :( Hard times! However I have got a spare half hour today so i can discuss a few new products I've bought and also do a little section on eyebrows!
To be honest with you I've become complete OBSESSED with Ebay, I'm on it all the time trying to find little bits and bobs for my collection and I can honestly tell you i have found some right bargains! 
When I was doing the photo shoot (still haven't got the photos yet) I wanted to get some false eyelashes without spending an obscene amount of money! I managed to get the ones pictured below for just £3 including delivery and they're great! Some of them are oddly matched however so make sure you choose the same pair so you dont have odd eyes. The glue wasnt too bad but they did unstick after about 3 hours so i used my allure glue insted. You can get these eyelashes here.
As you can see they have lovely length and volume!
Another item I've bought off Ebay is a concealer palette. Its perfect for me as I'm trying to establish The brush is yours so need a selection of different colours. The Palette cost me around £6 but is shipped from Hong Kong so took about 2 weeks to arrive! When trying the concealers they have had really good coverage and havent given me any irritaion. You can get them by clicking here.
Perfect for starting off your make-up kit!

My final Ebay purchase was a blusher palette, LOVE LOVE LOVE. I normally use Mac blushers but couldn't resit these cheeky numbers! There's 10 colours in each palette and is ideal if you want to have a play around with make up but don't have the budget! You can get them here.
Lots of lovely colours to experiment with!
Ok so those of you who know me, obviously know that I had to have an extravagant item after all this cutting back. So yes I have splashed out on some Bobbi Brown cosmetic brushes and I am over moon. So over the moon in fact I almost cried when opening them! I got 15 in total, but did get a bit of discount as I work for Estee Lauder. Here's an example of the brushes as my camera doesn't work to show you a piccie!

Gorgeous!!
Well after all that excitement i just want to recommend threading to you! I am an absolute baby and even waxing makes me cry, however it really is not that bad and apparently is a lot better for your eyebrows! I had mine done at the Beau-tique Salon in Cathays Terrace, Cardiff. Its underneath Franks Bar en Route! The lady in there only costs £5 for eyebrows but can do upper lip and even your whole face! I've never had such amazing definition, my eyebrows look lush! Beau-tique also do a fabulous spray tan for just £10 and all other types of treatments including Bio-sculpture nails. Here's their website http://www.beau-tique-cardiff.com/

Right before I go just wanted to tell you all what a fabulous time I had back in Cardiff and how much I LOVED the Royal wedding! It was really nice to spend some time with the girls and go out in Cardiff town :) Here's a picture of some of us on our night out after the Royal wedding.
Being extremely patriotic!
My peach dress was an absolute bargain from Soraya's on Albany Road in Cardiff! But shhh don't tell anyone!
Anyway I hope you've enjoyed tonight's post! Let me know what you think, and don't forget to like my facebook page Lorna Land-The brush is yours...

Much Love
