KISS AND MAKEUP | Haul + Thoughts

 

KISS AND MAKEUP | Haul + Thoughts - Cassandra Myee

I feel as though I need to start this post with a reintroduction because it has been MONTHS since I last posted (since early February to be exact). 2020 has really been a very unforgiving year for all of us and my brainpower and mental state could only manage to cope with so much and unfortunately, it meant my blog got put on the back burner. It's not to say that I still haven't been buying new things and trying new products, because I still love doing that but I just haven't been able to think about posting about them! I have been doing the odd posts on Instagram and I am now slowly trying to get my groove back and create some new content.

So my first post back in a while is a classic CM style post, a beauty haul from a brand new New Zealand online beauty retailer, Kiss and Makeup who just launched in July. They kindly offered me a gift voucher to spend on their website, so I'm here to share my experiences and the products I bought.

RECENT EMPTIES | JULY - SEPTEMBER '19 [Playing Catch Up!]

RECENT EMPTIES | SEPTEMBER '19 - Cassandra Myee

As I have mentioned in my previous posts, I am playing a major catch up on my Empties posts from essentially the last 6 months! They have just flown by and I just didn't get round to writing about all of these pretty great products that I have finished up as of late. You will notice a lot of my favourites but some new ones thrown in that I have been testing.

EMPTIES | May + June 2019

EMPTIES | May + June 2019 - Cassandra Myee


If you missed my latest post (The Comeback Cass - read it here), you will know that I took an unintentional break from my blog for a few months there. I mentioned in that post that I have a bit of a backlog of Empties and other reviews to get through and I still want to post them as they're still relevant and will hopefully be helpful to you. There are a lot of familiar products on this list from May and June but a few new products that I really loved and want to rave about!

RECENT EMPTIES | August + September '18

EMPTIES | August '18 - CassandraMyee


I have been a bit slack with the old Empties posts, so I thought I would lump together all of my recent Empties from the past couple of months into one big post. Skip through if there is a certain product you are interested to hear my thoughts on - there's a fair few to get through.

EMPTIES | June '18 - Pixi, Rimmel, Covergirl, L'Oreal, Tonymoly, 111Skin + More

Can you honestly believe it is now July?! I can't at all, and by the time we know it, it is going to Christmas already! This past June saw me hunker down inside and I didn't get through as many products as I usually do, but I have found a couple of new favourites.

EMPTIES | May '18 - The Body Shop, Ardell, GO Healthy, Toni&Guy, Soap & Glory + More

EMPTIES | May '18 - CassandraMyee


Another month has gone, so here comes another Empties and as it always goes I have found myself getting through a fair amount of product. Some of which are newly discovered products and some are old favourites.

FARMERS | Beauty Haul - L'Óreal, Maybelline + Essence

FARMERS | Beauty Haul - L'Óreal, Maybelline + Essence - CassandraMyee


NZ department store, Farmers, has always been my go-to when shopping for beauty products and I will be in there regularly checking out what's new and having a play with some new releases. Over the years they've definitely stepped up their game in the beauty department and now have so many brands available that we couldn't get before such as NYX, Wet N Wild and Essence. A couple of weeks ago I went in to grab another of my favourite setting spray from L'Oreal and naturally walked out with a few other new products to try too!

L'OREAL PARIS X BALMAIN | Color Riche Lipstick Full Collection - Swatches + Review

L'OREAL PARIS X BALMAIN | Color Riche Lipstick Full Collection - Swatches + Review - CassandraMyee


What do you get when uber chic fashion house Balmain team up with massive international brand L'Oreal? A freaking amazing lipstick collaboration that you do not want to miss out on! I was super lucky and privileged to receive the most amazing faux snakeskin luxurious AF box containing all 12 shades from the L'Oreal x Balmain collaboration*. These shades are daring, bold and not for the faint-hearted.

EMPTIES | March '18

EMPTIES | March '18 - CassandraMyee


To say I've been slacking in the blog post department is an understatement, this might be the longest I've gone without posting something on here and I feel pretty damn guilty about it! I have been quite busy with other things going on, but honestly, I think I just wasn't totally feeling it. It's important to recognise those sorts of feeling and an unintentional break was what I needed. But in saying that, now it's time to get back into it, so here are my belated empty products that I finished throughout March.

EMPTIES | December '17

EMPTIES | December '17 - CassandraMyee


I've been seriously slacking on the blog writing of late, I can't pinpoint why or what is causing it but it's a little overwhelming. So in the hopes to cure my writer's block or blogging block, I am going to ramble on about the empty products I finished in December. I realise January is almost over so you will see another Empties in a couple of weeks but I am determined to get this one up!

EMPTIES | November '17

EMPTIES | November '17 - CassandraMyee


We have finally made it - the last month of 2017, how friggin weird is that?! For now, though it is time to look back on the products I finished up throughout November. Also just a little note, I won't have a Most Loved post up for November, which will probably be the first month ever since I started my blog that I haven't posted it but there just wasn't anything that stood out to me. Instead, I will do a double whammy in December.

EMPTIES | October '17

EMPTIES | October '17 - CassandraMyee


Nothing like being 11 days into November to get my Empties for October up, but neither the less, here they are! As always I just seem to get through products at an alarming rate, obviously, these weren't used up in just 4 weeks and have been products I have been using for a couple of months at least!
