But for the generally low-spend it worth taking the risk and I've found some amazing products this way! </span></h2><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">So today I thought I'd share my favourite beauty gimmicks that I've purchased from eBay in the past year and highly recommend! These are possibly items you would easily over look on eBay but have truly helped me out and are worth highlighting.</span><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZUaP6EQKeAh3gB8JDf1VqkOqJnVuK0-Xwiuzhq3K-n6d9UsoMfPXkShbHCD0xvmS4IK3eQPf9CrA5yygWK-TBYKHLOgQuV_MUhX0hG4DXxSucdLKo1LhNtR2Xgfu3p65I22mYvmiL7eA/s1600/color-switch-eyeshadow-tin-cheap.jpg" /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>Eyeshadow Colour Switch Remover </b></span></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>�2.19 EBAY <a href="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Makeup-Brush-Powder-Eyeshadow-Blush-Dry-Clean-Sponge-Remover-Color-From-Brush-/222058508090?hash=item33b3b7ef3a:g:fo8AAOSwyjBW5t9R" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">HERE</a></b></span> </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">This is my most favourite beauty gimmick purchase, in fact I feel bad for calling it a gimmick as it's an ingenious products for anyone that has more than a handful of makeup brushes. The aim of the tin containing a dry black sponge is to clean your makeup brushes in between use of different products/shades. You simply swirl your dirty brush over the slightly course dry sponge and within 15 seconds you have a clean brush that can be used again. This is perfect if you have a favourite eyeshadow brush that you would like to used with multiple colours but you haven't been able to in the past. Or if you want to quickly spot clean all of your eyeshadow/powder brushes.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">I was sceptical of how well this little tin would preform but I can hand on heart say this is a pretty genius product that I use nearly every time I apply my makeup now. A true eBay beauty gem! </span></div><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhv33pCW8Tftvsb7CRhU8OuS0d5KBXGWXl_vNIs2Y41ByJ3GwLh5tRYLtg-p0rVqEM2q29Tc5i4VnkfUbz77uJKWDwOyJZyBlmfbda-wH1zO2VRfLWMZYZuomZpyL7XkkVxA4NVl_vlcwU/s1600/cheap-sigma-dupe-brush-cleaning-mat.jpg" /></span></div><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span></span><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>Silicone Makeup Brush Cleaner </b></span></span><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>�3.99 EBAY <a href="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/252542154401?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&var=551448705702&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">HERE</a></b></span></span> <br /><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Over the years I've tried quite a few silicone makeup brush cleaner pads and mitts and if I'm honest they can be a bit fiddly to to hold and you still end up with wrinkly prawn fingers! So a few months ago I thought I'd spend a little more and try out a large makeup brush cleaner pad that fits around the plug hole of your sink with suction pads. </span><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">With different areas for different brushes and areas for a more deep clean and made from thick silicone this is VERY similar to the �20+ Sigma Brush Spa and does an amazing job of cleaning all brushes. Yes, it's still a bit of a chore but it cuts down on time, give all brushes a thorough clean and no more wrinkly fingers at the end of it! </span><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">If you are looking for something that will make brush cleaning easier then this is certainly the product to pick up. A serious bargain! </span><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"> </span><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihaMkdgkaqmTDIwaulkwg-tllmmwbe4IAZ4qVVYZj9wUkPhBbQwWQ_lE-5mWhyphenhyphenbvEWpULMv4C2pxDbbGvj77G_ACU1v8fg9ashocrTo8pb5aJ7ZTRmsLec8rrnhBti_CcTE3Wh-3yJbqY/s1600/cheap-foil-remove-glitter-nail-polish-easy.jpg" /></span></div><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Foil Nail Wraps </span></b></span><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">100 for �2.99 EBAY <a href="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/191776787397?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">HERE</a></span></b></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Ever heard of the beauty hack of wrapping your nails in cotton pads and tin foil to remove stubborn glitter nail polish? Well you buy them pre-made! Okay, maybe super lazy because you could just cut up your own cotton pads and pieces of tin foil but there's still costs involved in buying the products so pre-made ones make sense! </span><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">I now use the above foil nail wraps with nail polish remover applied to the pad section when removing a gel manicure but also to remove glitter nail polish - so much easier then rubbing away for 20 minutes! </span><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The foil wraps are ideal if you know you will be indulging in glitter nails over the festive period and will make removal a breeze. </span><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">  </span><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihkL8ZzAQUTIy7PD2bgrEMT7n4gKqr6EicuLxgDOXNkDXbk7p4APniM8lmR3tvfjnXhLKiCLtA6YhqLvZdaALN8n2nShs2cAFZuUFxL3J4QhO676sgQO_v9EIxungG8VEXRtSTHKQoj1A/s1600/DIY-cotton-sheet-masks-ebay.jpg" /></span></div><b><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span></b><b><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">DIY Cotton Facial Sheet Masks </span></span></b><br /><b><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">25 Masks for �2.49 EBAY <a href="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/25-50-100-NATURAL-FIBRE-SKIN-CARE-PAPER-COTTON-DIY-FACIAL-SHEET-MASKS-UKSELLER-/190922656883?var=490193411274&hash=item2c73e08c73:m:mdlAnFn2ETuWOsVKmbIDj7A" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">HERE</a></span></span></b><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Sheet masks are certainly popular right now but if you are like me with a huge stash of standard face masks you may not want that extra spend of trying out different sheet masks. But what if you could make your own?! </span><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">In the listing above you can pick up as many as 100 cotton sheet masks for only �5.99 which can be soaked in any moisturiser or serum or applied over the top of any face mask you have, even clay based ones. I personally love this idea more than buying individual sachet sheet masks as it's so versatile and you can even batch cut the mask to the exact shape of your face unlike individual sheet masks. </span><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">My favourite way now to use one of the DIY cotton sheets is to make it damp and then apply a generous layer of serum to my face and apply the sheet mask over the top, leaving it to sit on the face for 5-10 minutes. If you love face masks or pampering in general just as much as me then this is a way to try out the sheet mask trend on the cheap and experiment with all your other face masks and skincare products. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: x-large;"><i><b><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">These four products are my ultimate beauty extras and totally inexpensive!

However I may be feeling like that because it was one of my lowest spending months with most items costing me only �1-3! </span></h3><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">As always the items are from a mix of UK and China sellers, so if you want anything in a hurry make sure you check the delivery times. I also get asked if eBay items from China come with custom charges and they 100% do not. You do have to be careful when purchasing anything from the U.S however. </span><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNdXTC-vAOBY6hbZuHrtORzM-ksDKWWh3PrmAwq2j-_WFOlni79nm7x8fV0SiH2S_uY_6SFcL3rYXNZdLhoc6-pBYpP5rKtt5q3rOloybQPZEaFFF0oNJAEwMd7FLKbNskE9Z7WEUnBM8/s1600/ebay-cheap-gel-nail-polishes-elite99.jpg" /></span></div><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span><h2><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Gel Nail Polishes</span></h2><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>Gold Bottle UV Gel Nail Polish - Shade 59 </b></span></span><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>�2.49 (<a href="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/222159535808?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&var=521001618168&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">LINK HERE</a>) </b></span></span><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">So this may just be the prettiest nail polish I've ever purchased - actually it is! The bottle is strangely similar to Dior J'Adore fragrance, but I'm not complaining as it just looks amazing and feels quite special. The listing contains so many different shades (including glitters!), but as I'm feeling very autumnal right now I picked up a nude/burnt orange shade, which turned out to be more of a warm nude shade. I don't mind this at all as I don't have anything similar to it in my collection but it's worth noting that the swatches aren't that accurate. I've yet to use the gel polish but if for any reason it doesn't last on the nails I will update this post, but if it's fine I will be 100% snapping up more shades. Side note - The eBay listing states a 'Rose Fragrant'.... no gel polish smells of anything but that weirdly burnt nail polish scent, so I haven't a clue what they are on about! </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><b><span style="font-size: x-large;">Elite99 Starry Gel Series Gel Polishes - 6605 & 6609 </span></b></span><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">�2.99 (<a href="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Elite99-Super-Bling-Shining-DIY-Starry-Gel-Polish-UV-LED-Soak-off-Nail-Art-10ml-/142013258390?var=&hash=item2110a65a96:m:mg51LgdTAA3k9trF29JKAqw" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">LINK HERE</a>) </span></b></span><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">As I'm still fairly new to gel nails I haven't tried many gel brands, but a brand I knew I definitely wanted to try out was Elite99, as I constantly see them on eBay, there are hundreds of shades to pick from and they're so low in cost! I decided to try out two glitter top coats as it coming that time of year when glitter doesn't leave my nails! I love both shades I picked up and I'm so glad the listing contains 25+ glitter shades as I will be picked up more. So far I've tried #6609 as an accent/statement nail and it covered quite opaque and looked amazing once the gel top coat sealed it in - really impressed. The only down side is you can't see what the shade looks like without opening up the bottle, so I think a night of painting small piece of scotch tape, curing them under my UV lamp and then sticking them onto the bottles is in order. </span><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></span><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><b><span style="font-size: x-large;">Elite99 Wine Red Series Gel Polish - 006</span></b></span><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">�2.59 (<a href="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Elite99-Soak-Off-Gel-Polish-UV-LED-Wine-Red-Series-12-Shiny-Colors-Nail-Art-10ML-/311480464519?var=&hash=item4885aeb487:m:m-j8iQgcAug1q7P0npVbndg" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">LINK HERE</a>)</span></b></span><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Another range I was drawn to from Elite99 was the Wine Red collection, which consists of 12 stunning deep red shades, perfect for A/W. I went with 006 as it seemed like a good mid-toned berry red and although it is a litte darker than I imagined it really is a gorgeous gel colour. I can't wait to apply this to my nails when the weather gets a little colder. I will be picked up more shade from Elite99, especially from the <a href="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Elite99-Soak-Off-Gel-Polish-Varnish-UV-LED-Nude-Color-Series-Base-Top-Coat-10ML-/361478314886?var=&hash=item5429c95b86:m:mkwJkFXREp-LuIRqiodGh3g" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Nude Colour series</a> which contains some amazing mauve nude shades. </span><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiX_8BlJbJbMjrh1WEDk9JHPiImqClL_iPiLvKwIDmNN56bSTDVH3O7CPycSlGyJxeTzzNs9M8szg97kldejNr5OHulRpMKxTmtvccgMA7g93p6k5sqC3iYUOfWRKrVn9dYGJw4k5kjUX8/s1600/Korean-cream-eyeshadow-swatches-ebay.jpg" /></span></div><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span><h2><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Eye Shadows </span></h2><h2><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"> </span></h2><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><b><span style="font-size: x-large;">Love Alpha Eye Color Frozen Cream/Gel Eyeshadow - 1 & 8 </span></b></span><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">�1.58 (<a href="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/191853870339?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&var=490893898823&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">LINK HERE</a>)</span></b></span><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Onto a product that was actually a recommendation from a friend - we enable each other with our eBay purchases! After showing me a swatch of the #1 shade of these beautifully packaged gel eyeshadows I was sold and decided to pick up an extra one as well in shade #8. </span><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Now I don't have much clue about Love Alpha as I hadn't heard of them until last month but I do know that their packaging is amazing and the product itself is quite unique. You see the cream/gel is quite wobbly and jelly like in texture with an interesting cooling effect when dabbed onto the eyelids. Unfortunately it's only shade 1 that's the gem here as shade 8 is much more sheer in comparison and can't be worn alone on the lids, unlike shade 1. If you are looking for an interesting very highlighted and shimmery eyeshadow and like liquid/gel formulas then this is a product for you! </span><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgBdBL2aRF07uKcEON4F7wsSOfmDmwRTUV6LOdRmHnecRcZO59k0VUL26rXJcAsT-QyOCeutfUBtlXg_fSi1XImVUUEO-gPmjx5-9-75Z8qgTIT6oDeMSRoHMUa3_0GVflZ77dyP7e9QVQ/s1600/makeup-brush-sets-cheap-ebay-finds.jpg" /></span></div><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span><h2><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Makeup Brush Sets </span></h2><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><b><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: x-large;">5-Piece Tom Ford Style Makeup Brush Set</span> </span></b></span><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">�3.05 (<a href="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/222190727982?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">LINK HERE</a>)</span></b></span><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Ahhh, more inexpensive makeup brush sets from eBay! </span><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">I picked up this set because 1. It looked similar to the Tom Ford Set with the flat ended brush handles (the TF brushes cost �50-80 EACH?!) 2. The amazing price! Now I will admit I'm on the fence about the set as 3 of the brushes although soft and do the job as a strange wool fibre that's quite cream in shade and do shed quite a bit. However the other 2 brushes are synthetic fibres and are just lovely - flexible, ultra soft and apply cream products a dream. For �3.00 I'm happy with the set but it doesn't compare to other budget makeup brush sets I've picked up from eBay recently.  </span><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>4-Piece Rose Gold Eyeshadow Blending Brush Set </b></span></span><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>�1.78 (<a href="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/152148301226?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">LINK HERE</a>)</b> </span></span><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Can we take a moment to amaze at how cheap these brushes are - 44p per brush?!  These may just be my favourite purchase of September because they actually do the job of blending eyeshadow and look really lovely. In the set you receive 2 blending brushes, a flatter blending brush and a lid brush. Yes, the handles do feel lightweight and cheap-ish, however that's to be expected... although they aren't flawed in any way and haven't chipped so far for me. As for the bristles they are perfectly soft and feel like some of my more expensive eye brushes! I'm so pleased I picked up this set and have already bought another set as a back-up and to use as travel brushes. </span><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjf8tHlHgSMMTftGMYALIHS9AX1fgPAw6k4BZgMSp1N2in2NLZC1qAiUx6gYXR2orYvbJxZAyxHVAY7C9f1mX5ASms0tGHjVrGUxWKLeoWSBxWtaDj8TiPjDKfuZ6sMoBIENtXoiSZDJdU/s1600/ebay-beauty-finds-haul.jpg" /></span></div><h2><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"> Accessories </span></h2><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><b><span style="font-size: x-large;">Hamsa Hand Wrap Rope Choker </span></b></span><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">99p (<a href="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/322197758770?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">LINK HERE</a>)</span> </b></span><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">I'm still feeling with 90's choker trend, so I picked up yet another 99p find. eBay are amazing for little items like this that are cheap yet on trend. This is a pretty long soft rope choker that you wrap around your neck twice and either leave to hang down or tie in a knot or bow. I've been liking it both hanging down and in bow and feel it looks very Boohoo/Missguided-esque and no one would imagine it cost only 99p! I was also thinking once the choker trend is totally gone I can re-purpose one of the Hamsa hands on to either a material or fine chain necklace - very thrifty! </span><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><b><span style="font-size: x-large;">5 Knot Tied Elastic Hair Ties - #4 </span></b></span><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">99p (<a href="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/182062726503?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&var=483059814590&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">LINK HERE</a>)</span></b></span><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">This is my 2nd set of these cute elastic hair ties.

Totally inexpensive and so worth it if you are a travelling or even want to carry your favourite fragrance with you but in a small handbag. You simply spray your perfume of choice into the small vial and pop the spray nozzle back on and you're done! Travalos do the exact same job but cost around �10, so I much prefer to get mine for 99p from eBay. </span><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhDhrPsxA42diK1mLjN_lGHMzgIjZPwekwIrhSO8fjA_8bwd3NfuJea25LD-6UBa5VCz28vnCGxaHW3zI2ndvsvLQ5Ra8FDOoisvq7hU850u4QKyDDwy_yJC7ICH2TkufSPoAXwe2EkFp4/s1600/cheap-ikea-skurar-plant-pot-ebay.jpg" /></span></div><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></span><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><b><span style="font-size: x-large;">IKEA Skurar Style Plastic Lace Plant Pot </span></b></span><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">�1.14 (<a href="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/282129451356?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">LINK HERE</a>)</span> </b></span><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Last but not least I came across a plant pot that looked so similar to the Ikea Skurar plant pots that are plastic instead of metal - which I actually prefer as they can be used outdoors and don't dent or rust! Perfect if you love the look of Skurar plant pots but don't have an Ikea nearby or just if you fancy a pretty pot to keep makeup brushes in (I use dry rice to keep my brushes upright!). It is quite large so it holds quite a lot of makeup brushes or a nice sized house plant. Already ordered another so I can use it as intended, as a plant pot, as you can see above.

When they arrived I was instantly impressed, by both the look of them (the swoon-worth textured handles!) and the quality - no chipped coating and ultra soft bristles! In the set you receive 3 face brushes - a foundation brush, angled brush and a blusher/powder brush, along with 4 eye/concealer brushes - a fluffy blending brush. flat lid brush, 2 smaller blending brushes and a pointed crease brush. The are slightly shorter in length than most standard brushes, making them ideal to travel with or just everyday brushes! Out of all the brushes in the set I definitely don't have a least favourite, okay maybe the foundation brush, not because I don't like... it but because I have others that do a better job. But all round I've been impressed with every single one, especially the eye brushes. Expect minimal shedding and fibres that keep their shape after being washed. </span><br /><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span> <i><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">I still can't get over how pretty the handle of these look and how all round lovely they are! </span></i><br /><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><b><i>P.S. Also available in gold in the listing. </i></b></span><br /><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">  </span><br /><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /><img alt="makeup-brushes-cheap-uk-ebay" height="800" src="https://c3.staticflickr.com/9/8357/29076516874_309435a39f_o.jpg" width="600" /><script async="" charset="utf-8" src="//embedr.flickr.com/assets/client-code.js"></script><br /><br /></span> <span style="font-size: x-large;"><b><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">4-Piece Eyeshadow Blending Brush Set </span></b></span><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">�1.42 <a href="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/231959308129?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">HERE</a></span></b></span><br /><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">A set of MAC dupe eyeshadow brushes now... for only �1.50, like whaaa!! Seriously I don't know what else you could buy for that price... in fact that's the same price as I paid recently for a bottled drink from a service station! Now I should probably go into detail about which brush is a dupe for what MAC brush, but I only own a single MAC eyeshadow brush, so I can't. However I know what the bristles are like to I'm comparing against that and can say they are definitely dupe brushes. You see the bristle are soft but slightly wiry looking and the shape of them very much reminds me of MAC brushes and are ideal for blending with. You receive 3 natural looking eyeshadow brushes and a single slightly larger black fluffy blending brush. </span><br /><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">I've been using all the brushes equal amounts and I like them all as additional blending brushes. I find the black bristled brush ideal for translucent powder to prime the lid and to blend out harsh edges, I also love the middle sized brush as a crease brush. I do have a feeling these may become more splayed out over time and they is some shedding but for only �1.42 you can't complain. In fact if in a few months these are looking a little lack lustre I will be buying some more! </span><br /><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: x-large;"><b><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Gold Round Top Kabuki Brush</span></b></span><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">�1.49 <a href="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Cosmetic-Makeup-Brush-Set-Foundation-Stipple-Techniques-Powder-Blush-Tool-New-GN-/111882082600?var=&hash=item1a0cb11928:m:mr_Hdf8r8G9J_8kqCFXtAfg" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">HERE</a></span></b></span><br /><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">On to a dupe for a Real Techniques blending kabuki which would normally cost around �9.00... so I nice little saving. Of course some of you may not like buying these kind of non-branded 'dupe' brushes, however I personally like to try them out and have always found them to be really good quality compared to actual fake brushes that scrimp on quality to produce the extra packaging and including the logos. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Other than this brush being an excellent dupe for one of the RT brushes I really cannot get over just how soft the bristles are. It's one of those that you literally sit there brushing over your face until you snap out of it and wonder what you were doing - it's THAT soft. This works exceptionally well with liquid foundations and creates that flawless finish to the skin. Also could be used with cream products as well. Just a lovely lovely brush here. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><i>You can also find the matching 6 piece set including this brush for only �3.54 <a href="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/6PCS-Soft-Makeup-Brushes-Real-Techniques-Contour-Foundation-Core-Collections-/172322932523?hash=item281f3f472b:g:4WEAAOSwFe5XxEm~" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">here</a> - what a bargain!  </i></span><br /><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: x-large;"><b><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Rose Gold Small Blusher Brush </span></b></span><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">�1.11 <a href="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/152189266014?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">HERE</a></span></b></span><br /><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Lastly a little impulse buy, just because I liked the look of it... I definitely don't need any more blusher brushes, but oh well! From the tapered handle, to the rose gold ferrule and the perfectly domed shape, I can't get enough of this brush - it's unlike anything else in my brush collection. </span><br /><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">With the long tapered handle I've found this can be held further down, achieving the most perfect application with no risk of Aunt Sally-esque cheeks! I've only used this with powder blush so far but already I want a few more to use with my favourite blushes, yes I love it that much! So very impressed with this brush! </span><br /><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><i><b>With so many lovely brushes here I hope you've found something to treat yourself to! </b></i></span></span><br /><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><i><b><br /></b></i></span></span> <span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><i><b>Fee xo. </b></i></span></span><br /><br />

There are so many shades I can't wait to use here, especially as they are all matte. Perfect if you are looking for a new autumnal palette but don't want to spend too much money.

My favourite accessory has to be these rose gold metallic sunnies that I've featured in a few eBay Bargains posts. Not only have I seen these exact sunglasses being sold for �10-15 online but they always seem to sell out quickly, so I was pretty pleased with my find... and I'm sure you'll agree that they do look more expensive and similar to Quay <span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">sun<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">glasses</span></span>s! Due to the rose gold these really brighten up the face and the shape is actually so flattering. As for the quality I'm really impressed for the price and they don't feel cheap or like they will break. As I love the<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">se</span> so much I've ordered the black frames with red/orange mirrored lenses - I can't wait for them to arrive now! </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><b>Dream<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">c</span>atcher Necklace </b></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">99p <a href="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Gypsy-Retro-Dream-catcher-Feather-Pendant-Necklace-Tassel-Women-Elegant-Boho-/222210549215?var=&hash=item33bcc7e5df:m:mDpSTNnT1wL68rTsIkXhmKA" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">HERE</a></span> </b></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"> When it comes to jewellery I'm all about cheap but pretty pieces, I don't wear a watch or any rings on a daily basis, so I like to impuls<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">e</span> buys budget items that catch my eye. Which is why I picked up this lovely dream catcher pendant. At 99p you never know what the quality will be before it arrives but I'm certainly happy this time as I love the matte gold finish to the main part and then the little etched feathers that nicely catch the light. I'm also really impressed with the detail especially as it's quite a dainty piece (around 10p size) and I'm certain no one would ever guess it was such a cheap item. I've already worn the necklace a few times but I can see myself wearing it quite a bit come Autumn/Winter. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><b>Double Layer Tassel Choker </b></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><b><span style="font-size: large;"> 99p <a href="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/231954448356?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">HERE</a></span></b></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Another necklace I impulsively bought due to the low price and again I'm more than pleased with the quality and how it looks. Again lots of detail to the necklace for only 99p, such as the faux suede tassel on a black metal chain and the little gold bar to the choker. This is comfortable to wear and fastens with a standard necklace clip that can be adjusted to size. I think I will buying a few more chokers from eBay now! </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><b>Making Magic Happen Tee </b></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">Style #11 �3.71 <a href="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/111944251518?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&var=410891332820&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">HERE</a></span> </b></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Not really an accessor<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">y</span> but another buy I took a risk with the quality and if it would actually fit or not! But thankfully both turned out better than I expected with the t-shirt actually being really good quality with a nice stretch to it and it fitting well, though I did go for an XL and I'm a UK 12-14! This is a slogan tee I've seen a few U.S fashion bloggers wearing in the past year and with it being grey and with a font I actually like I couldn't not pick it up.

Probably not. But oh well, under �2 is a bargain and I do love me some oval brushes. For the price this is a surprisingly dense brush with a good domed top. Yes, the plastic does feel cheap but you would have to press the brush against your face very hard for it to ever snap! However the ultra soft non-shedding bristles really do make up for the cheap plastic handle. For me this will be a good back-up brush for when my other foundation brushes are dirty.  </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><b>Rose Gold Fluffy Eyeshadow Blending Brush </b></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">99p <a href="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/322206720690?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&var=511111646840&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&clk_rvr_id=1082776808436&afsrc=1&rmvSB=true" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">HERE</a></span> </b></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">I already own this specific brush (from buying <a href="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/201591139904?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&var=500806117113&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">this 5 piece set</a>) but as I loved it so much I had to get another.

Ebay Haul - What I Bought in July 2016

So much so I'm thinking I will need to start doing bi-monthly posts soon. But for now here are the items I picked up from eBay in July... minus the three amazing rose gold makeup brush sets I featured and reviewed in a separate blog post <a href="http://www.makeupsavvy.co.uk/2016/08/3-surprisingly-stunning-makeup-brush.html" target="_blank">here</a>! </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt="nail-polish-ring-holder-ebay" height="800" src="https://c1.staticflickr.com/9/8515/28548404880_b4b6ccde7c_o.jpg" width="600" /><script async="" charset="utf-8" src="//embedr.flickr.com/assets/client-code.js"></script><br /><br /><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><b><span style="font-size: x-large;">Nail Polish Ring Holder </span></b></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">99p <a href="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/282018713952?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&var=580971033281&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">HERE</a></span></b></span><br /><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">First up the most gimmick-y item of my haul but actually one I've been using! As you can see this is a solution for holding your nail polish bottle and keeping it safe whilst painting your nails. It fits any size/shape bottle and I much prefer holding it this with as a ring than balancing it in between my legs or on the arm of the chair (always dangerous!). It comes in a <span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">range of </span>colours and is super cheap at 99p with free p&p. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>Dior Addict Lip Glow Lip Balm Dupe </b></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>Shade #04 �2.24 <a href="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/252375558228?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">HERE</a></b></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Ahh, I love when I come across a good dupe for an expensive product. Of course I went off the packaging alone when buying th<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">is </span>but now I've received it I can say it's a pretty great dupe for the pricey Dior Addict Lip Glow (around �24!) for <span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">both the packa<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">ging and <span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">the product itself</span></span></span>. As you can see the packaging is spot on except the brand name Baimiss is on the outer packaging, which is fine by me, and I love the you pull the bullet out from the packaging. As for the product itself it's a colour changing balm that looks paler than it is until it's applied and then it turns a subtle juicy pink shade. It feels hydrating and non-sticky on the lips with a very subtle sweet scent on application that quickly disappears all together. Shade #04 is the most similar to the pink Lip Glow, however there are 5 more shade in the listing - I've already ordered the coral one! Really <span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">pleased</span> with this find. </span><br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt="ebay-makeup-brushes-uk" height="800" src="https://c1.staticflickr.com/9/8262/28801131856_2d86c5c4a7_o.jpg" width="600" /><script async="" charset="utf-8" src="//embedr.flickr.com/assets/client-code.js"></script><br /><br /><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>Concave Contour Brush  </b></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b> �2.19 <a href="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/191895439814?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">HERE</a></b></span></span><br /><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">On to makeup brushes now and the most unique brush I've picked up in a long while. I was instantly drawn to this due to the shape and now I have it in my hands and have used it I can say it's pretty nice. The brush is designed for contouring and with the unique shape I think it will take some getting use to but I can see it being great for cream and powder products. The bristles are also really soft and so far there's been no shedding o<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">f</span> them! I'm sure I'll always prefer to use a flat topped contour brush to contour with daily but this is a nice <span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">ad<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">dition</span></span> that I so far cannot fault. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>Rose Gold  Small Blusher/Highlighter Brush</b></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>Size D | �1.29 <a href="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/201591139904?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&var=500806117114&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">HERE</a></b></span></span><br /><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">If you read my recent blog post on my <a href="http://www.makeupsavvy.co.uk/2016/08/3-surprisingly-stunning-makeup-brush.html" target="_blank">favourite rose gold brush sets from eBay</a> then you will have seen the full set of these stunning brushes. <span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">O</span>riginally I purchased just a single brush (you can buy all the brushes in<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">dividually</span>) to check the quality before snapping up the entire set. So this is the small blusher brush/large eye brush to the set and I love it! I often find I over apply blusher so this petite brush is perfect for applying a small amount of b<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">lushe<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">r</span></span> and blending it out. Or to apply blusher toppers with, so I will use a matte blush and then using this brush I will apply something that bit more special over<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"> the top</span>, either a highlight shade or a complimenting blush with highlighting flecks to it. This could also be used as a small loose powder brush for under the eyes<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">/</span>T-zone area,<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"> for</span> pow<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">der </span>highlight<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">er </span>or to blend an all over lid colour. With this brush and the one in the full set I'm pretty pleased I have two of them now!  </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>Rose Gold Fan Brush  </b></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>�1.2<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">0</span> <a href="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/111982565862?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">HERE</a></b></span></span><br /><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Lastly for makeup brushes I picked up this rose gold/bronze fan brush which I'm in two minds about. Yes, it does the job of quickly applying bronzer to the face and chest area and it can be used to contour the collar bones however it did come tightly wrapped which caused splayed out bristles that I had to straighten and trim. The bristles are also not fully dyed with a lot being a grey shade. For �1.2<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">0</span> that's totally fine and I'll still be using the brush but generally from the high volume of brushes I've bought from eBay in the past I've never had any problems. I wouldn't advise against buying this brush as it's incredibly soft and it does the job, just be aware that it may not be in spot on condition.  </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt="Chloe-faye-dupe-style-bsg-ebay" height="800" src="https://c4.staticflickr.com/9/8661/28756219451_124b41be26_o.jpg" width="600" /><script async="" charset="utf-8" src="//embedr.flickr.com/assets/client-code.js"></script><br /><br /><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>Chloe Faye Dupe Bag - Grey </b></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>�13.66 <a href="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/252245977554?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&var=551073112088&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">HERE</a></b></span></span><br /><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Other than all the amazing rose gold brush sets I've been loving <span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">recently</span> this Chloe style bag is hands down my favourite purchase from<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"> eB</span>ay this year! I umm'd and ahh'd about this purchase as I unsure about what the quality would be like (it's actually seriously well made) but having never bought a designer style bag off eBay before and with autumn kind of round the corner I thought I'd bite the bullet and <span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">pick up this beauty in</span> the soft dove grey shade. </span><br /><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">On delivery (it came with DHL<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"> in under 2 we<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">eks</span>!</span>) I was instantly impressed with the weight off it, mainly from the hardware but also from the thick faux leather that feels soft yet ultra hard wearing. Much like the Chloe Faye bag, which I should state is a crazy �1,200, it comes with a soft faux suede front, solid metal ring and detachable chain. Inside there are 3 good sized compart<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">ments</span> and a smaller compartment to one of them. The strap does feel thinner faux leather than the rest of the bag but I don't see that as a problem. It can also be transformed into a clutch by placing the strap inside the bag and the chain can also be hidden inside the bag for a more minimal look - which I actually quite like. </span><br /><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">For the �14 price tag I'm 100% pleased with this bag and I'm now lusting after the burnt orange shade for autumn/winter as it's just perfect. As for the quality I'd say it's much better than anything you could pick up at Primark and is more the quality of Zara and Mango. Very pleased with this purchase! </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt="ebay-phone-case-palm-print" height="800" src="https://c8.staticflickr.com/8/7473/28832448095_3b9e6f99cd_o.jpg" width="600" /><script async="" charset="utf-8" src="//embedr.flickr.com/assets/client-code.js"></script><br /><br /><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>Palm Banana Leaf Phone Cover </b></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b> #4 Design | 99p <a href="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/232006259617?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&var=531199228590&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">HERE</a></b></span></span><br /><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">So I went and bought yet another phone case from eBay... but can you blame me when <span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">they're </span>only 99p?! This is a lovely banana leaf print that's ideal for rocking right now. Compared to the listing I did notice that the colours and print are slightly different, which is the first time this has happened for me, however I still like it and feel it looks good on my phone. If I was fussy I'm sure I could email the seller and receive a refund but it's only 99p at the end of the day! The case is also made from silicone which is my preferred choice of case as it's easy to take on and off the phone and most importantly it doesn't scratch like a hard case! As I own so many bargain phone cases from eBay I may have to do a collecti<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">ve</span> haul post of them very soon. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><b><span style="font-size: x-large;">5x Multi Hair Elastic Ties</span></b></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>#8 Design | 99p <a href="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/291739039620?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&var=590760196410&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">HERE</a></b></span></span><br /><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Another lovely bargain find here with 5 summer perfect knotted elastic hair ties. The listing includes 10 different styles but I fancied some vibrant ones for summer and these are just perfect. With long hair I much prefer these to standard hair ties as they don't snag or kink the hair, also they look pretty nice around the wrist when you're not using them. As for the quality I'm more than impressed and would say they are the standard of Popband hair ties... but with a �7 saving! To the set I'm loving the glitter and tie-dye one the most but they will all be getting worn over summer. I will also be picking up a few more styles now I know the quality of them.  </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>6 Mixed Festival Summer Bracelets </b></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>#1 Design | 99p <a href="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/301880566037?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&var=600691466249&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">HERE</a></b></span></span><br /><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"> Clearly good things come in sets and cost 99p because I picked up another bargainous set that I'm pretty happy with. Of course if you like more expensive quality jewellery then these bracelets won't be for you, but if you like changing up what you wear and having options then these are a total steal (also maybe good as a little gift!). The set includes 3 thin beaded brac<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">e</span>lets in white, coral and turquoise and 3 more decorative bracelets, a rose gold white studded band, a metallic silver tassel band and a mixed beaded bracelet. The quality is as you would expect, much like what you'd pick up in Primark or find on holiday in a little souvenir shop but overall the look of them is nice especially just to throw on in summer or whilst on holiday. There<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"> are </span>also 5 more styles/colourways to the listing! </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><i><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>Another amazing month of eBay buys if you ask me!
