Hello! As you may know I recently went to Melbourne for the weekend to shop, relax and for some 'me' time! Well, shop I did! So much so, that I'm splitting my Haul posts into Parts. This is Part One, which will include what I bought from Lush, Target, MAC, Myer, Colette, Lovisa and H&M. Part Two will contain my Sephora and Mecca Maxima hauls, although I may even split that again and do those ones separately, given the amount I bought! I'm so happy with everything I got. Let's have a look, shall we?
LUSH
The Experimenter Bath Bomb
Melting Marshmallow Moment Bath Oil
Outback Mate Soap
Yuzu And Cocoa Shower Cream
Brightside Bubble Bar
Sesame Lotion (free sample)
Beautiful Shower Gel (free sample)

| Lush Melting Marshmallow Moment Bath Oil |
I went in with the purpose of buying bath bombs for the hotel room, and did manage to use The Experimenter and the Melting Marshmallow Oil during my trip. Check out this video I made of The Experimenter exploding in the bath! You guys know I love a free sample, but I swear I didn't even request Beautiful and Sesame Lotion, the Sales Assistant just included them!
TARGET
Chi Chi MakeUp Blending Sponge Complete Collection
NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream in Milan
NYX Extra Creamy Round Lipstick in Tea Rose
Sleek Blush By 3 Palette in Lace
Sleek iDivine Eyeshadow Palette in Garden of Eden

| Sleek iDivine Palette in Garden Of Eden |
Disappointingly, The Balm and Sleek displays were practically empty, and Target had a sign up saying how popular these brands were, and that they were selling out super-fast. Well, duh! Luckily I managed to grab most things off my list, although they were clean out of The Balm Meet Matte Hughes liquid lippies and some of the NYX shades I was after.

| MAC Matte Lipstick in Velvet Teddy |
MAC COSMETICS
MAC Matte Lipstick in Velvet Teddy
Time Check Lotion (free sample)
Pro Longwear Nourishing Waterproof Foundation in NC15 (free sample)
This had been on my wishlist for quite some time and it's finally mine! I actually think I got this from MAC in Myer, but I photographed this separately, so let's not confuse my easily-addled brain.

| Hello Myer Sale! |
MYER
Chi Chi Eau De Parfum Watermelon Gift Set
Chi Chi Glamorous MakeUp Collection Bronzes

| Revlon Cherished Love Gift Set |
I didn't plan on getting any of the above but Myer were having a sale! I'm in desperate need of makeup brushes, so I couldn't resist the Revlon eyeshadow brushes and the Revlon Gift Set obviously looks like it was a Gift With Purchase that they marked down to clear out. I loved the contents and for $35, it was great value for money!
 |
| I like the red 50% Off stickers most of all! |
COLETTE
Various earrings, rings and hair ties.
Um, half price jewellery, yes please! These items were inexpensive to begin with, so seeing the red 50% Off sticker is extra exciting. The only thing I paid full price for was the biggest pack of stud earrings, and that only came to $10 anyway. Score!
 |
| Have a ring or two! |
LOVISA
Multi-packs of strange rings, 2 x huge rings and a gold Dream bangle
 |
| Because you have to Dream! |
Wow, I didn't realise I'd bought so many rings until I just typed that out! Again, everything was marked down, either 3 for $12, $2 or $4. How can you go wrong?
 |
| Pretty! |
H&M
Sparkly headband
Flower Garland headband
Gold triangle necklace
This place was packed and the lines for the Fitting Rooms and the checkout were nuts. I also got two pairs of pants for $5 and $10 in the sale section and two tops (only $15 each), not pictured, because I forgot to. I was too mesmerized by all the sparkly jewellery! Fun Fact - I still don't know what 'H&M' stands for!

That's it for Part One, how did I do? Remember, there's still my Sephora and Mecca Maxima Hauls to come!
I think I need to get myself to Myer and put some gifts away for my three teen daughters. What bargains.
ReplyDeleteYes, I was pleasantly elated, lol. So many great bargains!
DeleteLooks like you got quite a haul! I dare say you have more makeup in the post alone than what I own in total haha {because I hardly wear it now I'm a SAHM} #teamIBOT.
ReplyDeleteHaha, well now I feel bad - wait til you see the Sephora and Mecca Maxima haul posts I have coming up. I bought way too much makeup!

Yeah, it was so much fun! Thanks for reading, Annie :) xx
DeleteWhat a fab looking haul. There's something so much more exciting about shopping at another city, even if it's in stores we have at home. That Yuzu and Cocoa stuff smells awesome.
ReplyDeleteYes, I agree. It might have something to do with the fact I may get completely lost at any moment. Haha! Can't wait to use that Lush shower cream!
DeleteI don't know what H & M stands for either... What a haul! I am drooling over here. I really love the H & M necklace. You got some really great deals.. Can't wait to see the next part!
ReplyDeleteGlad it's not just me! Thanks, I'm pretty happy with everything I got :)
DeleteI am obsessed with Lush! They look gorgeous! xx
ReplyDeleteMe too! So many beautiful fragrances in store!
DeleteYAY! The haul we've all been waiting for!! What a bargain on that Revlon set! I really want MAC Velvet teddy, still haven't yet. It's always sold out in store! What a great haul, I'm a bit jealous!
ReplyDeleteHaha yes! It took me long enough, and I still have more to photograph. I had no idea Velvet Teddy was in such high demand, guess I got lucky!
DeleteWhat a haul! Looks like you grabbed yourself some awesome bargins with the Chi CHi stuff! DF xoxo
ReplyDeletewww.doaner-fide.com
Yes! I'm thinking of using the Bronzes set for a giveaway, we'll see! xx
DeleteGood work Melbourne! I always find something fab when I venture into the city. So many great bargains in your haul too. x
ReplyDeleteYep, so happy with everything I got. Bargains are always great to come by! xx
DeleteThis is a really impressive haul and it makes me want to go and buy things from Lush especially. And I actually hate that Target's beauty section never seems to be well stocked!
ReplyDeletewww.thesundaymode.blogspot.com.au
They really can't keep up with demand! But I guess shoppers will stop going to Target if they don't improve. Thanks for reading :)
DeleteYou are a bargain shopping Queeeeen! :) So many great deals, esp at Myer and with the jewellery! I love the rings you choose! <3 Oh and that blue soap from Lush, is that the Outback Mate? LOVE the blue, omg it's gorgeous!! xo
ReplyDeleteHaha, thank you! Yes it's the Outback Mate from Lush - I fell in love and had to get it! xx
