Collective Haul: Models Prefer, Max Factor & Chi Chi

Time for another haul! Places I visited this time were Priceline (duh!), Woolworths, Target and Myer. (:

New at Priceline this week are 2 palettes by Models Prefer, which are very in terms of packaging to the Too Faced Sweet Indulgence and Shadow Bon Bons palettes.

I got the Sweet Shadows palette that comes with 12 eyeshadows, an eyeshadow primer and a mascara/brow gel duo for AU$15, but skipped on Sweet Kisses because the eyeshadow shade range didn't appeal to me as much and it was more expensive (AU$25).

As you can see, there is alot of resemblance of the MP palette to Too Faced. However, I don't have the Shadow Bon Bons palette to do a comparison but definitely keep an eye out for a review on the MP Sweet Shadows. I've used it twice so far (eyeshadows only) and my first impression is actually quite good. They are not the best quality eyeshadows but it still works well. Considering it is $15, I will say it's a little overpriced even though you get alot of products, just because it falls short in the quality. I only bought it because I used my Priceline vouchers* that I got from last month. After trying it out, I definitely wouldn't purchase it at full price.

*By the way, if anyone is interested to know, with the $5 vouchers that you get when shopping in-store at Priceline in September, I managed to use multiple vouchers in one transaction. I had 4 vouchers so I got $20 off  my total of $42 (minimum spending of $35 to use the voucher).

Also new to Priceline is the Wild collection by Max Factor. This collection features a new eyeshadow/liner and mascara. It seems like every brand is coming out with a similar type of product lately because Rimmel recently released their Scandaleyes eyeshadow pencils too. As Priceline is currently having $7 off Max Factor,  I picked up 2 of the Wild Shadow Pencils for only AU$5.95 each (usually AU$12.95) in 5 Caramel Rage and 20 Untamed Pink.

I've never bought Napoleon Perdis products because they are kind of pricey. So when I read about this offer (via Jodi aka gooroobeauty's instagram), I knew I had to pick it up! For AU$12.95, you get this month's issue of InStyle magazine that comes with 3 full size makeup products from NP worth $82! I picked mine up at my local Woolies.

Gift with purchase: lip gloss, Lashes to Lashes mascara, cream blush.

Lastly are the Chi Chi items that I picked up at Target and Myer! All these items were on at least 50% discount. From Target, I got both the lipstick and eye palette for AU$8 (I know the lipstick price tag from Target says $10 but at the cashier it came up as $8) and from Myer, I found another of their Viva La Diva lipstick and an eyeshadow quad both at AU$9 each.

I love SALE!

Was most excited about getting the Viva La Diva lipsticks because I've heard they are amazing! They usually retail for AU$18.95 which is why I haven't gone out and bought any.. until now! I got it in the shade Super Hottie and Style Stealer.

Confused about the finish of Style Stealer.

I also picked up a eyeshadow quad in Sophisticated Sassy because of the pretty packaging on this one.

This palette I got for the warm neutral shades in it. Super lovely!

Eye palette in It's Fantastic.

So happy to add all these Chi Chi products to my collection! I can't wait to use them and do a review, so definitely stay tuned for that. And that's a wrap for my haul today, thanks for reading! (:
