Boots Haul

 

Boots Essentials Nail Polish Remover

I'm nearly out of my current nail varnish remover & managed to pick this one up for £1. I've used it before & found it amazing for taking off nail polish & it's a total bargain!

 

Garnier Pure Micellar Cleansing Water

This is a re-purchase. I absolutely adore this cleansing water, it really does live up to all the amazing reviews it gets from bloggers. It removes my makeup effortlessly & feels so gentle on the skin. Definitely worth picking up if you haven't tried it.

 

Imperial Leather Fruit Salad Shower Cream

Oh my word. Fruit salad shower gel!? How amazing. I saw this on offer at the till & couldn't resist picking up a bottle (or two..) It smells absolutely amazing. When you're in Boots next, see if you can find some to sample. They also do a marshmallow scented shower gel, which I really wish I'd bought now!

 

VO5 Bedazzling Oil Heat Protect Spray

I've never tried this before, but after browsing the hair care section, I was drawn to it. It claims to make your hair silky soft after washing, I'll have to see if it lives up to what it says. Have you tried it before?

 

VO5 Smoothly Does It Frizz Free Cream 

 This was a re-purchase. I love this cream for my hair. It really does tame my frizz before styling & I find my hair a lot more manageable after using it.

 

Maybelline Eraser Eye Concealer

I've heard so much about this concealer, I just had to pick it up. This is the first time I've seen the light shade in stock. Just shows how popular this product is!

 

Batiste Dry Shampoo Blush Floral

Another re-purchase. I wash my hair every 3 - 4 days & it stays non-greasy for the first two, but by 3 or 4, it needs a bit of a lift. This dry shampoo has been a life saver over the last few years for my hair, I'd definitely recommend it if you haven't tried it before.

Recent Purchases

Chunky Heeled Sandals - BooHoo

Ah, my new favourite shoes! I simply adore these sandals! I picked them up from BooHoo a few weeks back. I sadly didn't get to take them on holiday but I have managed to wear them out a few times before saying goodbye to them till next Spring. They'll be a full post on them soon!

Pug Pillow - Tesco
A pug. With a bow tie. On a pillow. Need I say more? I just had to have it!

One Tree Hill Complete Box Set - Amazon
Ok, hands up who used to watch this? I thought buying the box set was a brilliant idea now James has gone back to uni.. I need something to watch in my spare time!

Vanilla Body Butter - Boots

I took this to Greece with me & now every time I use it now I'm home, it just brings back all the memories of an amazing holiday. Such a gorgeous scent.

Orly Nail Varnishes - TK Max

These Orly nail varnishes have to be my find of the month. The beautiful blue polish is stunning on the nails but I found the glitter top coat quite runny, but in proportion they are both amazing. I think I got them for around £3.99 as opposed to around £10 in TK Max.

Nail Art Pens - Ebay
Such a bargain! I bought these a few weeks ago & have yet to use them but they were between £1-2 from Ebay. Perfect for adding those intricate details to your nail art.

Express Nail Polish Remover - Boots
I'm actually so excited to try this. I wear a lot of glitter top coats on my nails & scrubbing them with nail varnish remover & a cotton pad doesn't exactly do them much good. I bought it in the Boots clearance section & have seriously high hopes for it.

Strawberry & Pomegranate Shower Gel - TK Max

Another Summery scent, but this shower gel doubles up as a bubble bath. The only down side is it doesn't foam up very much, but I'm loving the pump feature. 

Mango & Mandarin Candle - Matalan

Summer is almost over & as we're coming into Autumn, I'm finding it very hard to let go of the sunshine & holiday spirit. This candle is all about the memories. It was around £4 in Matalan, total bargain.
 

Wella Hairspray - Boots

I remember using this hairspray before I went on to L'Oreal a few years ago, but as it was on offer & I needed one for holiday, I picked it up. It's ok, but does set your hair if not sprayed very finely & away from your head.

What have you bought recently? Any bargains? : )

Barry M & MUA Haul

Hello lovelies. : )

Hope you're all ok. Thought I'd show you some more MUA products I picked up recently.

£4

 I love this palette, you can obviously see from the name it's full of glitter eye shadows which I'm a massive fan of. : )

£2.50

So many people have said this blusher is amazing, so I'm looking forward to trying it.

You probably remember the blue nail varnish from this post. I'm still wearing it from a week ago & it's only chipped a little. : ) These were all £1 each.

£1

This is quite a weird lipstick. I fell in love with the colour when I saw it but when it goes on your lips, it's very watery & if you have cracked lips like mine, it does highlight these instead of covering them like some other lipsticks.

£1

Now I LOVE this one. It's beautifully sutle & gorgeous to wear on any skin tone.

Now I'm going to do a proper post on both these next two nail varnishes from Barry M, but for now, here's a sample.

£3.99

£3.99

These are the new Barry M nail varnishes, called 'Foil Effects'. Priced at £3.99, they are a pound more expensive than the regular colours. I haven't tried these on my nails yet, but hoping to wear the silver to a party this weekend, so I'd dead excited about it. : D They actually look amazing.

 If you want to check out me rambling on about these products, I have posted a video about them too.

& I'm still having problems commenting on some of your blogs. (Of course it's some of my favorites this is happening too) so I'm really sorry but I am still reading your posts!

& FINALLLLLY! Have you checked out my sponsor page yet? If not.. DO IT NOW! ; D



Today



Found here

Today is a weird day.

& this quote, just somehow fits.

I feel so ill, my whole body aches. It's such a weird feeling. I walked Honey & Harv earlier, for about 20 minutes & came home struggling to breathe for the next half an hour. Urghhh - & it's such a gorgeous day. I feel so annoyed wasting all this beautiful sunshine by being stuck inside.

How are you all girls? I went shopping again yesterday & picked up a few items I'll post up soon. I got this gorgeous LBD but I'm going to have to exchange it I think. I tried on a size 10 & it was quite tight so went & bought the size 12 (without trying it on - probably not a good idea) but it's way too big so I'm either going to get another dress or go for the 10 & try to squeeze into it. The dress is so stunning, I'd actually be happy to lose a few pounds for it. Sad..? Yes. : )

I've also been addicted to the Seven Dwarves documentary that's been showing on Channel 4 & it was the last one last night. What will I do with my Tuesday evenings now!? Haha. Did any of you watch it? I actually found it really entertaining & eye-opening.

Anyway, I'm going to go for another nap now, my head feels like it's going to explode. : /

Talk to you all soooon. ♥



MUA Haul

Hello lovelies. Hope you're all well.

Thought I'd show you some of the MUA products I picked up last week. I've done another video on this as well, so if you want to watch it, click here.

Right, so I picked up three lipsticks, a nail varnish, three eye shadows & a pressed powder all for £7. I wonder how many of you read that & went 'whatttt!?' Yes, you see I got eight products for £7. Now we all know MUA is cheap.. but that would mean I got one free right? Well yes, I did! My pressed powder scanned through at £0.00. No idea why / how etc. But, even more of a bargain don't you think? : )

So you've all seen the standard pressed powder before (no point me reviewing this, it's boring & well.. I'm sure I've posted about it before) but here's a picture anyway!

It's shade 2 & just goes over my foundation (as I use a liquid foundation, it's quite handy to help it dry quicker)

So on to the new-er stuff. : )

First the nail varnish. Now I haven't actually ever bought a nail varnish from MUA, but I saw this colour & just thought it was so pretty, I couldn't resist.

I painted my nails last Friday (Monday today) & only applied one coat to see how it would wear & I'm actually really impressed. It's only chipped a little on two fingers, so not bad at all. It also dried really fast, which is always a requirement I go for in nail varnishes. (I'm so impatient waiting for them to dry!)

Next, the eye shadows.

This turquoise one was a impulse buy. I love this colour but no idea if I'll find something to wear with it.

Sparkly purple. I do love my sparkles for nights out. : )

 

 

& a dark purple. I'm going to try to create a smokey eye, using purples instead of silvers, black & greys. I'll definitely try to take pictures & show you if it turns out half decent!

 

So next is the three lipsticks, in three different shades. : )

 

 

This is the first one, it's a very strong, barbie pink colour & I have to say, this is my favourite out of the three I bought. I don't know why, but it seems to have a stronger pigment than the other two. (even though one is dark red) It just lasts a lot longer.

 

 

This is the pearly soft pink. It's alot more sparkly, but in a sutle way. (If that makes sense) I do like this colour, but it doesn't tend to last very long on your lips. (2 hours tops)

 

 

This is the dark red. I wore this out on a night out on Saturday & it actually lasted quite a long time.

 

Swatches of all three:

 

 

Sooo, what do you think? Have you tried any of these products or any other shades of MUA lipsticks you'd recommend?

 

Oh yes & I've created an about me page today as well. (I have been a busy bee!) So check it out if you'd like. : )
