MAC Venomous Villains - Bite of an Apple Blusher | Review.

This is a blusher I've had for a few months now, as usual I've just been lazy with my reviews! I picked this up brand new from ebay for £18. Probably a little more than I was willing to pay but it's my first MAC blusher and I absolutely adore the packaging. I was a little late in hearing about this collection (it came out in 2010 I believe) and I was really disappointed, I'd seen lots of these products in make-up collection videos on YouTube and I really wanted some for myself.
This blusher is called Bite of an Apple and it features the Evil Queen from Snow White and the Seven Dwarves. I would have loved to get most of the Maleficent collection, I think it had the most beautiful colours and packaging. The nail polishes look especially stunning! Maybe I'll hunt them down sometime.

Wednesday Waffle - Week 5 | Fender Mag, Wardrobe Organisation + Sale Shopping.

This post almost didn't happen because I forgot it was Wednesday today! I cannot actually believe it's the second week of 2013 already, it's bizarre. To me it almost doesn't feel like Christmas or New Year even happened, everything is still moving so fast.

Over the past week I've been enjoying reading all the blog posts about 2012 Favourites, whether they're about beauty or things like TV and film.
These are a few of my favourites,

Miss Holly - the best of 2012 | make up
Thunder & Threads - Best of 2012 | TV, Film, Music & More...
Essie-Button - 2012 Beauty Favourites.
Beauty & Baggage - 2012 Favourites.
Beauty Crush | 2012 Through my lens.

I also happened upon this very cute page on BuzzFeed.com  - just look how adorable these hedgehogs are! My favourites are 2, 3, 12, 17, 19 and 20. They're all adorable really.

The weather has been very changeable this week, mainly cloudy but the sun was shining today despite it still being chilly. A couple of nights ago I looked out of the window and it was misty, I love when it's like that, I think it's so eerie and atmospheric.

"MAC" Brush Set.

Ok, so this post is perhaps going to be a slightly controversial one. Last month I purchased a set of brushes from ebay for £12. The controversial thing is that it's a set of fake MAC brushes. I don't feel bad buying fakes things once in a while because I do usually buy everything from the actual companies.

I didn't have many make-up brushes before, I had a powder brush, a blush brush and a couple of random eyeshadow ones. All of which are very cheap, but I still use them as they have lasted well and do the job!
I wanted to experiment a little and try out a few different types of brushes but didn't want to spend a lot. So ebay it was! These brushes have since been removed from the sellers shop as they apparently sold the maximum quantity they were allowed, although I have a feeling there were perhaps some legal reasons...Who knows. All I know is that they are great quality, and I'm very, very happy with my purchase!
What did I get? Well here we go.
