I've never tried any Illamasqua products before but I've read countless good reviews on the brand so I couldn't leave these behind. I picked up the Illamasqua Powder Blusher which is white in colour so it's perfect for highlighting the face. It had never even been used, although there was a chunk gone from the top corner so I think it may have been dropped but that didn't bother me. I also got the Illamasqua Liquid Metal Eye Colour in Electrum, which is a gorgeous gold shade which is really creamy and which actually reminds me of the Maybelline Colour Tattoos. I haven't used this yet but it's a lovely shade for autumn. The two of these were €6.
The lady who I bought the Illamasqua products from also gave me a free blush, the P.S. Love Blusher from Penneys which is a light peachy colour that's very natural looking and I've actually worn it everyday since she gave it to me.
I also got these three Soap & Glory products. I've been a Soap & Glory fan for years and when I saw these three products, all unused, I had to pick them up because I know I'll use them up. I got the Soap & Glory Heel Genius, which is actually amazing! I put this on my feet every second night and it makes them super soft. I also got the Soap & Glory Flake Away Scrub which I love and will use in the shower because I love scrubs. The last Soap & Glory product I picked up was the Soap & Glory Hair Supply which is a product I've never used before but hopefully it'll work wonders for my hair because it's in need of a little TLC. These were all €4.
I really love Urban Decay eye shadows so when I saw these two, both in a gorgeous blue shade with flecks of green and gold called Shattered I had to pick them both up. Neither of them had been used and they were only €3 each - a complete bargain considering they're like €19 from the Urban Decay counter. I've already worn the shade and it's really lovely.
Have you ever picked up some amazing makeup and/or beauty bargains at a carboot?
Wow Fiona! So amazing that you got so many products at such a good price, very jealous! My colleague swears by illamasqua, she says it's incredible!

I know, I couldn't believe it! Good to hear, I'm looking forward to trying them out.
DeleteStop, you did not get Mac eyeshadow for €2.50 each? I'm so envious right now. Must hit the carboot sale next time it comes to my area. But can't say I've ever seen so many quality products at one! x
ReplyDeleteI really did! I couldn't believe it either and the shades are really pretty. Hope you can find some good bargains if you go x
DeleteWoah, that was some haul!! I'm very impressed. Is this weird, but I don't think I've ever been to a carboot sale?! I always think they'll be full of tat (and I'm not very good at patiently sifting through lots of stuff to find a bargain) - but it looks like I might be missing out :)
ReplyDeleteHow amazing to get such a great selection of expensive make up at such a great price. My mum loves car boot sales and picks up loads of great stuff.
ReplyDeleteOh some great finds, I've never thought of car boots and beauty products but you got some absolute bargains! Maybe it's time I got up early on a weekend and give it a go myself :) Xx
ReplyDeleteBootfairs are amazing for bargains! I can never resist! They are absolutely brilliant for baby clothes and toys.
ReplyDeleteWow you did get some amazing finds! I never have any luck at car bootsales for beauty bits! x
ReplyDeleteOmg I couldn't imagine that you can get stuff like that in a car boot sale. There's one nearby. I might go to it and are what you can pick up. It's generally never nice stuff like this.
ReplyDeleteOh my god what bargains, I'm particularly jealous of all the mac eye shadows. Really brilliant quality items too. I've never been to a carboot sale but perhaps I'll have to venture to one now!!
ReplyDeleteWow! WOW! What utterly brilliant car boot bargains you've got there. I love a good rummage around a car boot every now and then...I hope I'm as lucky as this next time I do. :)
ReplyDeleteWow, you got really lucky with all those bargains. I can't believe how cheap those Urban Decay shadows were. Complete steal
ReplyDeleteWow, I would never have thought to look at carbon sales for makeup. You picked up some great pieces for a real bargain! There is a big carboot near me at the weekends, I may have to pop down for a little look!
ReplyDeleteWow! You got some amazing bargains. These UD shadows are gorgeous. I just love great deals. :)
ReplyDeleteI love boot sales but struggle to get up early enough. IT must make it all worth it though when you get bargains like this. I love the colours you have chosen too. The green one is so different but i can imagine it will look so nice when on the eyes. x
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't have thought to look at car boot sales for makeup, but it looks like you've certainly got some bargains there. The colours of those MAC eyeshadows are absolutely gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteI have to agree I love a car boot sale but I have never even considered looking out for make up and bits like that but I really have been missing out haven't I? What awesome bargains. I love the urban decay colour and i am also a high fan of soap and glory.
ReplyDeleteOh my god! I need to get myself to Ireland.Our local car boot sells plants, second hand clothes and toys.There are some seriously great bargains and so many gorgeous colours.
ReplyDeleteI literally had no idea that you could expect to land brand new beauty and make-up products at car boot sales. Clearly, I've been visiting the wrong ones! You got some great little bargains there. Nice work!
ReplyDeleteseriously I have got to get to a car boots sale near me, I can't believe you got all that make-up, mac eyeshadows for just €2.50 and that metal gold is gorgeous
