Beauty Bay Black Friday Haul

I don't think Black Friday has ever been as good as this years! As much as I want to save and spend my money on love ones this Christmas, I couldn't help but sneak onto Beauty Bay to have a little splurge. The whole of the Beauty Bay website was 30% off and so I went a little mad but managed to knock it down to these great pieces and I got them all for such a steal so I wanted to share them.
Starting with LA Girl, one of my favourite brands you can get from Beauty Bay, I made a little repurchase and something quite new to try. One of my favourite concealers of all time is the LA Pro Conceal Concealer in Porcelain and so with it being 30% I had to get it again as my own was almost finished. 
My other little LA Girl purchase was their White Pro Coverage Foundation which I am so excited to test and trial. This is something I think is going to come into great use because a lot of my foundations are too dark for me so this seems like the perfect thing. I have not tried this out yet, but once I have, I will let you know if it is a game changer.
Next up is something I have been waiting to try for ages and I finally picked it up. It is the ever so famous Milani Baked Blush in Luminoso. I have been a little bored of my current blushes in my collection and just because I have heard so many great things about this one, I just need to try it. I have only swatched it so far and it is crazy pigmented, saying that though, it is also quite powdery, so I am going to see how thing plays out on the face.
Misslyn is a brand that I definitely want to try more from and so I picked up this bronzer and contouring powder in Beach Please. This packaging gives me proper The Balm vibes and I really wanted to put it to the test to see whether it is my new favourite drugstore bronzer. This bronzer was so affordable and the quality feels amazing, I also got quite lucky since this shade looks pretty good for me.
I was in desperate need of a new highlighter brush and so I picked up a super popular one known as the Morphe M510. I knew I needed to try this out, so many people claim it is the best highlighter brush ever and it looks like it has potential. It has a really long handle which feels a bit weird to me but hopefully it all works out well and this becomes a new staple brush in my collection
One of my many makeup addictions is single pan eye shadows especially Makeup Geek ones and so when they were on 30% I had to pick up a few more on my wishlist. I really want to do an updated Makeup Geek Eye Shadow Collection so let me know if you want to see that, but I don't really want to go into too much detail on the shades I picked up in case that post does fall through. 
The first shade I got was Beaches and Cream which is a matte light nude colour. I thought this would be perfect just as a super basic crease colour for any look I am doing. 
I then got the shade Chickadee which is a yellowish orange, again another matte. Since I am constantly wearing warm tones, I thought that this would make a staple crease colour.
Third shade was Bitten which is a matte deep purplish. I wanted this because I thought it would make a more wearable dark shade, rather than using a black. I also think I could create some really pretty smokey eyes which this shade.
Final eye shadow I got, and the final product in this haul is the shade Time Travel. This is a super dark teal shade, and like all of the rest, a matte. On the website this looked more like a dark green but in real life, it has a bit more of a blue tone but I am not mad at it. I have really been trying to experiment with some more colour on my eyes recently, especially blues and greens as they are not my typical orange and red shades so when I saw this on Beauty Bay, I really wanted it.
Swatches top to bottom: Bitten, Time Travel, Chickadee, Beaches and Cream, Beach Please, Luminoso
