Ever since I first stumbled across the amazing Cult Beauty site, browsing the online array of high end, high performing makeup has become my new favourite past time. Although I wish my bank balance stretched to cover my entire wish list, in reality I have to restrict my spending to only a handful of luxury indulgences a month. Today I have my latest Cult Beauty splurges as well as a new MAC goodie wrapped up in one high end haul to share with you all.
1. Anastasia Beverly Hills Contour Kit
After reading the endless reviews raving about the contouring powers of this palette, I was dying to get a hold of my very own. I bought the colour 'light' and encased inside are three warming shades and three highlighters. There is a matte yellow-toned and pink-toned highlighter as well as 'Sand' which has a shimmer finish.
All three contouring powders are matte; two have a warm tone whereas the colour ‘Fawn’ is the perfect ashy shade for adding a natural contour to a pale complexion. With an initial swatch all the shades appear smooth and blendable with a great colour pay off. This palette has definitely captured my attention and I can’t wait to see its contouring effects.

2. The Original Beautyblender
As a girl on a quest to find the foundation applicator for the ultimate flawless finish; I am excited to now possess my own Beauty Blender. I have always preferred the finish created by using a sponge over a brush, as it blends my foundation in seamlessly for a natural looking coverage. If you were ever to invest in only one high end item for improving the appearance and application of your makeup, I would suggest placing this at the top of your priorities.
3. MAC Pro Conceal and Correct Palette
My final high end makeup indulgence was bought on a whim. I had heard little about this palette before, however after eyeing it in the MAC store I immediately had to add it to my collection. I have the shade 'light' and inside are four concealers and two colour correctors.
The shade ‘pale pink’ works amazingly well for correcting darkness under the eyes and ‘pale yellow’ is perfect for fading the redness of my acne scarring. I have loved testing out the shades in this palette and I now reach for it every time I apply my makeup. To see this palette in action, then have a look at my recent video dedicated to sharing my current Full Coverage Foundation Routine.
I hope you enjoyed this mini haul and I would love to hear about your recent beauty purchases, whether they be high end or high street.
Devon
