Mini Duty Free Haul – MAC, Bobbi Brown and Ren

Who doesn’t love Duty FREE!?!? Before I go out to the snowy mountains for two days, where there is no internet, no signal and no signs of life I just wanted to post my mini Duty Free Haul! But who knows, I might just meet a polar bears or two dancing on the streets! Haha, don’t worry guys, it’s not that bad! I’m going skiing with family (although I haven’t decided whether I wan to ski or not), but I’ll probably just end up relaxing… I mean revising… in the sun. 
On the way back to Norway, I stopped by the Duty Free at Heathrow Airport because it’s a natural thing to do when you’re flying somewhere, right? The check-in and security at Terminal 5 were super quick, 20 minutes max I’d say. Other than somehow ending up in the Arrival level rather than the Departure level  at the very beginning, because I was silly and can’t read signs, the whole experience was rather positive. 
Before this post turns into an “airport review”, let’s talk about what I bought from Duty Free! I don’t always buy beauty products at the airport, but since I had two hours to kill this time, I thought I’d have a good look at the MAC counter
I ended up getting a MAC Lipstick, my first MAC product EVER! The colour I picked out is All Fired Up. I’m sure you all have that one already! This shade appealed to me because it’s a beautiful fuchsia and red shade that’s goes well with the spring season. It’s cute and playful without being too heavy! 
The second product is Bobbi Brown Long-Wear Gel Eyeliner Set! I forgot how much I love gel eyeliners until the makeup artist used it on me during my photoshoot last month. I have’t tried this particular one before, but I’ve heard a lot of good things about Bobbi Brown Eyeliners, so I’m really excited to try it out. Yes, it does come with a cute little brush. πŸ™‚

The third product is something I’ve been wanting for a while now! I’ve already reviewed Glycolactic Radiance Renewal Mask as a miniature version in one of my posts from last month. I used it up since then, but now I have a new one! Yay! What I love most about this product is that it really does what it says and it lasts forever!
That’s basically all I bought from Duty Free, other than a few bottles of wines and some chocolate. It’s not a massive haul, but I got what I wanted, so I’m happy. 
Let me know in the comments below what you like to buy from Duty Free and what you think of the products I bought. 

Background: 
I don’t have my Canon 1100D with me at the moment, so I used a different camera, Canon G11. It’s a basic camera, but I think it did a good job. Also, what do you think of the planes? Haha, I thought they would be a good fit for this post! …. now, got to go… πŸ™‚

    If you don't mind me asking, how much was the Bobbi Brown eyeliner set? I'm going to be in Heathrow Terminal 5 in a week and I'd love to pick them up:) x

      Of course not! I think it's Β£26 for the pack, so it's a decent price!
      Enjoy your trip! x

      Thanks! Haha… yeah, just "a little bit!" I'm definitely treating myself to more in the future. The only problem is that there are too many shades to choose from! x

      You can definitely expect a few swatches. Let's just hope that I don't end up using it up before I get around to writing a post! πŸ˜›
      Where are you going? Hope you have fun! x
