Marvel X Miniso | Haul |

Hey there!
I know I'm like... 5 months (or more) late with this post but, I'm still gonna share it because I think it's worth it.
As some (if not all) of you know, Miniso came up with a cool collab with Marvel and it's been around for a while. In fact they continue bringing new merch because of how popular it has been.

I am a huge Spiderman fan so I was very excited when my friend told me about this collab, maybe even more excited than with the Sanrio one.
I mean, most of the things I've bought are Spiderman but you can also find other Marvel characters, including Hawkeye! They have everything: kitchen supplies, stationery, bags, super soft plushies, pillows, toiletries and even makeup and fragrances.

Since it is Miniso we're talking about, all of the characters are chibi and kawaii. Not complaining tho, I find it perfect!
Surprisingly, this haul is not a really big one. There are so many things I want but I'm proud to say I've been controlling myself.
So, without further do, let's check some of the goodies I have~

✩ Black Widow Keychain

Black widow has to be my favorite female from Marvel. She's strong, beautiful and brave. And to be honest, it wasn't that easy to find cute Black Widow related stuff. I thought I'd go crazy buying her things but, this one is the only item that is not Spidey related... hehe.
The material is just... plastic, like a rubbery kind of material (it's clear I can't describe materials). And well, I haven't used this one yet because I already have other keychains on my keys but, it is really cute and I really wanted to get it.
I'll use it someday~~~

✩ Marvel Facial Mask: Spider-man

I believe this was the first thing I got from this collab. And I've been saving it for the sake of this haul but I'm really curious to use it. I want to believe it'll be like one of those animal masks, where you get the face of the animal and I kinda want to see Spidey's mask once I open it but, it probably will be a regular white one.
It doesn't say anything about the smell of it or its purpuose tho.
I love how the packaging is so... superhero like! A part of me doesn't want to ruin the package by opening it but, I'm looking forward to use it too.

✩ Spider-man plushie

There's something about Miniso's plushies... they are SO soft! I always wanted to get one but for whatever reason I never did until I saw this one. I loved how it has a huge head and a small body
They have other styles too. Different characters, shapes and sizes but, they are all soft and cute.

✩ Spider-man Small Bento Box

There's no much to say about this one. They have other bigger and fancier bento boxes but I decided to get this one. It's cute and it does the job so, yeah.

✩ Spider-man Air Freshener

This one has to be my favorite not only because it is super duper cute but also because it smells like coffee. I believe there are like 3 different types of air freshners but this ones are the coolest. I only wish Miniso had like extra sachet thingies to replace the scent whenever the figure runs out of it.
You can always keep the figure and collect them. They are very well made and spidey perfectly matches with my car.

✩ Spider-man coasters

This hero icon coasters come in a set of 2. They are something I don't really need but couldn't resist to get. Hehe

And that is that for this small Marvel, or should I say Spidey, haul. There are some other things I've got that gave away as gifts but, I'm sure I'll buy a lot more so there may be another haul someday~

The Avengers Black Widow inspired Makeup

Hello there!
Even though The Avengers came out like a month ago, it's still everywhere! I have to say I loved The Age Of Ultron movie, I think I even liked it more than the first one!
I don't think you guys know but, Hawkeye and Black Widow are my favorite Avengers. I love how badass Natasha is! She is super sexy, beautiful and knows how to fight, who wouldn't like to be like that?

So, this time I wanted to try her makeup style, which honestly, was a little hard to check. Her makeup changes from the Iron Man movies to the Avengers. And it took me a while to figure what colors to use and stuff. Cuz if you looks at her, her makeup is not too elaborated, it's almost kinda natural! Something you can use everyday. I also noticed that from one Avengers movie to an other, her eyes change a bit, from grey-ish to brown-ish colors. Anyways, I decided to go for browns.

I should've tried this before dying my hair brown! It would've looked way better with my ginger hair~~~~ oh well...
I'm not gonna list the actuall products I used but only the colors, because everyone uses different brands and stuff so, yeah.

As usual, I started with some BB cream, then some concealer and finally some pressed powder to create an even skin and cover some red spots, dark circles and...my sick face! (I have a cold~~~)

I filled in my brows using a lighter color than my brows because she doesn't have super strong brows, but they are a little thicker than mine.

* Eyes

I used the first color as the base appying it on the eyelids. It doesn't look as shimmery once you apply it. The second color which is a peachy beige goes on the mobile eyelid and the last color, the dark brown was applied on the crease, from the outer corner of the eye to the middle of my eye. I also applied some of this brown shadow on the outer 3rd of my lower lash line, as close to my lashes as possible and kinda winged it out a little, blending it to make it softer.
As you see, I used colors from different palettes.

Once I was done with the eye shadow I applied some black eyeliner, drawing a super thin line starting a little far from the inner corner of my eye. I didn't really winged it out. Then some black mascara only on my upper lashes. She doesn't have that super long lashes look so, 1 coat was more than enough.

* Lips

Scarlett Johansson has beautiful super voluptuous lips, so to kinda create that effect I used a creamy nude lipstick as a base to make my lips look fuller, outlining them with a brush. And then, on top of that I applied a soft pink lipstick that has a slight plumping effect. I mean, they might not look as good as hers but, it does the job! hehe.

* Cheeks

I don't really contour my face ever, but this time I used a bronzer on my cheekbones to define that line, and applied some pink blush on the apples of my cheeks.

So this is my version of Black Widow's makeup on The Avengers The Age Of Ultron. Some friends and people I know have suggested me to cosplay as her so, I definitely will someday!
And here are a few more photos...sorry for the spam!!

after soooo many serious faces, here's a different one! Not too Black Widow-ish tho!

I really hope you guys liked this inspired look, let me know if you want me to try other character's makeup or a certain look.

XOX
Nat!
