W7 | Colour Me Buff Natural Eyeshadow Palette - Review + Swatches

W7 | Colour Me Buff Natural Eyeshadow Palette - Review + Swatches - CassandraMyee

Not all eyeshadow palettes are created equal; some may copy or dupe other shades or palettes but the quality always differs as does the price point. I have some very affordable palettes I love, and I also have some very expensive palettes which I love also - I am always up for trying new ones and if they are cheaper then even better. W7 is a UK brand, but available from Postie+ here in NZ and all of the products are less than $20. They have a range of eyeshadow palettes, sort of mimicking the Urban Decay Naked range; this Colour Me Buff Natural Eyeshadow Palette* having a close resemblance to that of the Naked 2 palette (see it here, warning it's an old post so the photos aren't great!) - but how does the quality compare for a palette that only costs NZD $15.00?

POSTIE NZ HAUL | Essie + OPI Nail Polishes

POSTIE NZ HAUL | Essie + OPI Nail Polishes - CassandraMyee

If you have been a long time reader of CM, you'll know that I love a little visit to Postie+ for some cheap makeup bargains. Ever since I moved up to Auckland end of last year, I've noticed that there aren't as many around like there were in Christchurch (or they are just out of the way for me), which has definitely been a good thing for my bank balance. But a couple of weeks ago I needed to get my Postie fix and headed to the one out by the airport and came out with a nail polish loot.

NOTD // Rimmel 60 Seconds Nail Polish in 810 Blue My Mind - CassandraMyee

I'm always partial to blue nail polish, whether it's navy, bright blue or baby blue. I recently got this Rimmel 60 Second polish from Postie for $4, and it really impressed. The colour, the formula, the brush; everything ticked all of the right boxes.

ULTA3 | Nail Colours - Review + Swatches

ULTA3 // Nail Colours | Review + Swatches - CassandraMyee

Nail polish is one of my vices, so when I saw these relatively new Ulta3 polishes at Postie, I couldn't help but grab a few to try out. The colour range is awesome, and there is a great mix of cream colours, metallics, and some really amazing glitters. The best part is these are only $4 a bottle!

KLEANCOLOR | Nail Polish Haul + Swatches

KLEANCOLOR // Nail Polish Haul + Swatches [from Postie] - cassandramyee

My collection of Kleancolor polishes seems to growing at a bit of a rapid rate now that I have been finding more shades are available at Postie! It seems whenever I go in there I come out with at least one, and on this particular occasion I came out with three, I mean they were on sale and were only $3 each!

POSTIE [NZ] | Haul, Swatches + First Impressions



Some days I just feel like doing a bit of beauty shopping and one of my favourite places to go is Postie. They have a lot of very cheap makeup (which I think is parallel imported) from brand like Revlon, Maybelline, L'Oreal, as well as cheaper brands such as BYS and Kleancolor. They have just got in Boots No.7 makeup and skincare so I was looking forward to seeing what they had on offer.

REVLON | Nail Polish Haul from Postie


If you are an avid reader of my blog [not sure how many of you out there...] but you should know by now that I quite like Revlon nail polishes. Partly due to the fact that I can usually find them for super cheap online, via. NZ Sale (you can usually get them for $4!), or at one of my favourite places for budget beauty finds, Postie and also that they are pretty good as polishes go.

Last week Postie were having a 20% off all beauty sale so I nabbed a couple of new shades for only $6.40 each, when they usually are $8 (pretty good price even without the sale!).

POSTIE | A Small Haul


I've talked about Postie many times on my blog before as it is a great place to buy cheap, parallel imported makeup and beauty items. They often have good sales and when I went in to buy this lots, they had 30% off all beauty. I only picked up a few bits as the Postie I went to didn't have the best range compared to the one I got to normally.

POSTIE [NZ] | Haul + Swatches


I've talked about Postie before, it's a store here in NZ that stocks super cheap makeup especially from good brands like Rimmel, L'Oreal, Maybelline etc as well as cheaper brands like BYS and Kleancolor. I buy quite a bit from them and they always have good deals on cosmetics. The reason I went in the other day was that they had 30% off all foundations and I am almost out of my current L'Oreal Matte Morphose. Of course I couldn't go in and just buy one thing, so picked up a few more things I thought I would share.
