I received x3 full sized items and x2 Sample sized items. 

Jelly Pong Pong 2-in-1 Shadow / Liner.
Full size RRP : $19.00
Color : Bronze

'A uniquely formulated crayon that doubles as an eyeliner for thick, precise lines as well as a perfectly blended eye shadow. the exclusive combination of Italian-formulated waxes and pigments allows you to build up the color, smudge or create bold lines quickly and easily. '


Jelly Pong Pong Lip Blush.
Full size RRP : $22.00
Color : Cranberry 

'A Moisturizing lip stain that tints your lips with just the right amount of juicy colour and hydrates like a balm.'

I love the hype surrounding the Jelly Pong Pong items included in this months box! This is a brand I have never heard of before but I was so excited to try!

My current go to makeup look is a brown eye shadow with creme colored brow highlight and a red stained lip so i can do simple touch ups on the go, both of these products have slipped nicely into my daily makeup in a hurry routine, I got the perfect colors! both the lip and the eye shadow pencil makes it easy to be quick, precise and blend beautifully.

I have long admired the GHD range of hair care & styling products, I purchased my first ever GHD hair straightener last year and I am hooked!
