As usual I ended up in Boots on my lunch break and I ended up purchasing the 17 Wild Metallic Cream Eyeshadow in Wild Nude for £3.99. I'd seen these a few times in Boots but I'd never bought them because I was always worried about cream eyeshadows creasing, however I was wrong!

The packaging isn't anything overly special, however it's practical and does have some detail on the lid. Saying that, I'll be storing this cream eyeshadow upside to increase the longevity of it. 

The actual eyeshadow is so creamy and so easy to apply. It can be applied as a base or be worn alone, both have brilliant results, and to my delight it didn't crease after a whole night of me wearing it. 

I've seen a couple of people comparing these cream eyeshadows to the MAC Paint Pots but since I do not have any, I cannot compare the two but I thought it'd be better to buy a budget cream eyeshadow first to see how I found them. As well as being a bargain, there are 6 shades in the range, including some brighter shades.

Overall, I am loving this 17 Cream Eyeshadow because it just gives me a little colour on my eyes, as there is a slight shimmer but no glitter. It's also just so easy to pop it on if you're in a rush with a little bit of mascara and your eye make up is done!

Have you tried the 17 Wild Metallic Cream Eyeshadows?

Over the Jubilee Weekend Elf had a few offers on, and I chose the 30% off option. So these are the things I bought!

As you can see I got a fair amount! I'm featuring the majority of things in this haul, I've only missed out the fan brush and the eyelid primer.

 Nail polish in Passion Pink. Not the best lighting, but I will be doing swatches when I wear it!

£2.50

Nail Polish in Mod Mauve. Once again I apologize for the lighting. 

£2.50

Nail Polish in Twinkle. Again, apologies for not having amazing lighting. But I thought this looked gorgeous, and as my current nail polish with glitter in is running out, I thought it was time to re-purchase as I love putting it on over other nail polishes.

£2.50

 Blush in Tickled Pink. I love their other studio blushes and this colour looked gorgeous!

£3.75

Blush in Candid Coral. Another beautiful colour, I've actually worn this today and yesterday and I love it!
£3.75

Final blush I bought from ELF. Although most people (including me) use it as a highlighter. It's in Gotta Glow. I love buying new highlighters, and so far I've been loving this. I just applied it using a fan brush and it's not too shimmery.
£3.75

Swatches, from top to bottom:

• Tickled Pink
• Candid Coral
• Gotta Glow

As you can see Tickled Pink and Candid Coral  look sort of similar in the swatches.

False lashes - Natural Lash Kit. I've not got too much to say as I've not used these yet. However once I've used them I'll make a post about it! 

£1.50

Mascara Primer. I did try and get a good photo of the brush but since it's white and the background is white, it was extremely over exposed. Anyway, you just apply this before normal mascara and it's worked amazingly so far! 

£3.75

I 'made' an elements palette, even though it's not full yet. 

Top left (eye shadow) - Pink Ice

Bottom left (blush) - Flush

Bottom right (blush) - Glow

All were £1.50 each, and the palette is also £1.50

I bought two cream eyeshadows. 

The first shade is Candlelight.

£3.75

The second shade I got is Dawn. 

These are meant to be similar to the Mac Paintpots, but a lot cheaper! I haven't got the paintpots so I can't really compare, but so far they seem to apply smoothly and stay on for a good few hours!

£3.75

Sorry this has been so picture heavy! Also I put the prices as they currently are, not what I got with 30% off as that offer is no longer available. Although ELF do regularly have offers on, so watch out for those.

Hope you all had a good weekend.
