Revision free haul!

Saturday, 29 June 2013

As mentioned in my OOTD post on Monday, recently I popped to town for a well needed shopping spree. I hadn't been shopping in something ridiculous like 5 to 6 weeks! It's safe to say I was shopping deprived!! Here's what i got..

CROP TOP, NECKLACE & RINGS - TOPSHOP // HEART RING - RIVER ISLAND // FOUNDATIONBLUSH & LIPSTICK - SUPERDRUG

I was super happy to find out the sales were on and I managed to pick up some beauties from Topshop, the crop top cost me only £8 and it was something I originally wanted when it was first released! I am a massive of Topshop jewellery but I'm a girl who would rather buy clothes than accessories and can never justify Topshops prices, so whenever theres a sale I'm straight to the jewellery stand! I first picked up these lovely simple coloured rings which come in silver, gold, rose gold and black, but for some reason the black one is way smaller than the rest! The other thing I picked up was this gorgeous necklace, it's a beautiful neon orangy pink rose with crystals and spikes. I also got a cute thumb ring from River Island, although I'll probably wear it as a normal ring!

Onto beauty, the main thing I went into superdrug to get was the much raved about Bourjous foundation! I also wanted to try out the cream blushes so I picked up one of those in Nude Velvet and lucky for me Bourjous were having 3 for 2 so I picked up a lipstick in Shade 10. It's a super bright red with a hint of orange in it, I'm not a massive lippy fan and this is way too bright for me, so it's definitely one that I'll just prance around the house in pretending to be Marilyn Monroe until I'm able to apply it properly and look average! I then went to boots and picked up another pair of fake eyelashes and a La Roche Posay Moisteriser. I'm not 100% sure on what one it is, only that it helps with redness! I realised as I went to find the link for this that I picked up a different one to the one I had planned to get! Oops! None the less, I'm loving it at the moment! Finally I got a Garnier Make-up remover and toner as they were on two for one! I've heard a lot of good things about the make-up remover so of course I had to give it a go myself!

Would you like to see any reviews on these things?


Avon Haul

Thursday, 2 May 2013


You know those times when you just crave a beauty haul? I have those feelings nearly every month. My nan gets the avon magazine regularly and always hands it to me and mum to have a look and nearly every time there is something I want. This time I got the Mocha eyeshadow quad which came with some gel liner and mascara. Being a girl who's very much a make-up noob, I wanted to try a cheap and cheerful lip product, so I got a light pink lip stick (this was defo a bad colour choice!!). At the time I was experiencing some serious spot troubles so I chose the spot treatment. And finally, my nails are atrocious at the moment, they keep peeling which I think may be because of the lack of sunlight they get, I can't leave the house without some colour on them, so I bought a gel strength base coat and a peeling and brittleness solver! Let's hope they work!
