Huuuuuggee Haul!

Hey Guys!

How's it hanging?

So I kind of went to Merry Hill (a shopping centre in Dudley near Birmingham) and kind of spent a lot of money but that obviously means that I reeeeally wanted to tell you what I got. I just want to say that these posts on hauls aren't to show off but are what I bought and you'd hopefully see something on here and want to try it out :) So here we goooooo!!

SUPERDRUG

So every time I go shopping the 2 shops I always go to are both Boots and Superdrug and because I'd bought Tanya's lashes in the 'Date Night', which are amazinggg by the way, I really wanted a more subtle look so I thought I'd buy these so I can add as many as I want. As my eyelashes aren't that long I'd probably use more of the 'long' ones but could apply all the 3 lengths if I wanted to :)



Now this purchase was mainly down to Estée Lalonde a.k.a Essie Button from YouTube. She went off on a tangent about this lip butter and thought 'I have to buy this' so...I did. Now I may have already opened this and have it on my lips as I write and it's very very creamy/moisturising but I'm not hugely amazed at the smell of it but I'm very happy with it as long as I don't smell it haha! :D


Now if you've been reading my blog posts for a while you'd know that every Sunday I'll have a bath and I'll write a blog post about what I used in my bath, what I watched in the bath etc. and most recently I've been putting a face mask on and so I thought I'd stock up and got 3 more masks:




HOTEL CHOCOLAT

Now if you know me I looooove chocolate and I just couldn't resist...at all...like seriously ;) I might just go demolish these right now...brb.



YANKEE CANDLE

As well as make-up, food, clothes and shoes, I also have a slight obsession with candles and when I found out that Yankee have done a collection called 'Cafe Culture I just had to. Omg. These smell insane!! Inspired by smells of the cafe life style so I bought 'Pain au Raisin', 'Tarte Tatin' and 'Cappuccino Truffle'. They smell quite sweet and actually smell like they say that there going to!!



NEW LOOK

As I live in England, it rains and the weather is pretty shit most of the time and I've only ever owned 1 umbrella ever that changed colour in the rain and I thought I was the dogs bollocks! haha! But I can't find it any more :'( So I thought I'd invest in one and found this beauty.I instantly fell in love with the leather-like handle and that colour! Wow! There was another one with a pink handle and cartoon fast food but I preferred this one which has the quote 'Rain drops keep falling on my head' and it's see through :)



I really wanted, actually no needed, some new socks because I tend to go through soooo many that I only really have white trainer socks left and because I was in New Look and they had this deal of 3 pairs of socks for £4 and I seriously couldn't resist the pug socks! Looookkkk!!!!! :3




LUSH

Obviously I need more bath products for my bath and what's the best place for that...Lush of course! I'd heard really good things about the 'Mask of Magnaminty' from YouTubers and as I tend to get pretty bad spots, especially when Aunt Irma comes along :( and I've tried quite a lot of products that say they help eliminate spots etc etc. but I thought I'd try it :D



As you probably know, if you read my 'Suds Sunday' posts, I do looove a good bit of bubbles and I purely bought this because it smelt pretty good and when she put the label on it, it said 'Bubbleroon' which means it gives you lots and lots of bubbles :D yay!!!! I also heard good things about the 'Immaculate Eggception' in Pink and it also smells sooo nice so again, why not ;P




BOOTS

Now time to go to the mother-land! I'm completely in loooove with Real Techniques brushes and I've had my eye on the Blush brush for some time now and I finally decided today was the day! Aaaanndd it's just my look because it was buy 1 get the 2nd half price and because I've already got the shading brush I got myself another one because you can never have enough eye shadow brushes especially when they are such gooood quality!!



I've never ever had a problem with Barry M, especially their nail varnishes,which are an absolute bargain by the way!! And I really needed a black nail varnish because the last one I had separated and no matter how much I shook it, it never went back to normal and because there was a deal of buy 1 get the 2nd half price and the 2nd one I got I saw out the corner of my eye :) The black one is called 'Black' and the pretty pink sparkly is called 'Atlantis' from the Aqua collection I think it's called...


Now this is a controversial product and I can't really have my say without actually buying it can I? ;) So here it is... Benefit's They're Real Mascara. I've had a look at the brush and it kind of reminds me of Collections' Volumising mascara which is a little bit fatter but fingers crossed it's as good as people say it is :D





Now, I don't really want to say this too early on in the relationship but I think I'm in love... <3 This lipstick is the one. If you've read a previous blog when I mentioned the other 2 colours I bought, 2 wasn't enough! I'm really into my warm pink colours lately and when I saw this in the shop, there wasn't a doubt in my mind that I wouldn't buy it. 



P.S. Sorry about the blurry pic. It's number 830 called 'Rose'.

PRIMARK

So this top is probably controversial but I love it. I love the Kardashians and not afraid to admit is especially as this top is £2!!!!!


I've been looking for a nice boxy kind of bag and the design of the front reminded me of a Mulberry bag, especially the little clasp so obviously I needed it in my life. Plus it's black so it'll go with the majority of everything I wear!







TOPSHOP

An absolute steal from Topshop today! I saw this hat and didn't really take much notice until I saw the price and not even joking, I ran to the till to buy it. #noshame.




And that's all folks! ;) I hope you enjoyed my haul and if you want to any reviews of anything from my haul let me know in the comments :D

Thank you sooo much!!

See you later guys.

Shoppinggg!!!!!

Hey Guys!!

How's it hanging??

I know I know...it's been a while sorry :) but I'm back now and wanted to tell you beauties what I got when I went shopping todayy :D

First I went to Lush because I'd ran out of anything new for my Suds Sundays and because I'd got a voucher for there I thought why not eyyy ;) So I decided to get:





Now I should be okayy for about a month til I need to go back! :)

Then it started to rain and I immediately ran to Boots I have no idea whyy ;D haha must be habit but you obviously can't go into Boots and not buy anything :) I really wanted a nice spray and my friend has a Soap and Glory one and smells soooo good so I thought I'd buy one...and I did!



I remember seeing somewhere a new Sleek palette and reeeallllyyy wanted a particular shade in the palette but couldn't find it in store but did find another palette I quite liked the look of and even though I'd already got the blush in this palette but ohh well :D 



Now I was also thinking about buying some face masks for when I have my bath on a Sunday and there was an offer at Boots on the Montagne Jeunesse so of course I had to haha :)



Now I know that one of them is for dry to combination skin and another one so for oily to combination skin but I always go for the scents/flavours rather than what they do haha :D

And the last things I bought were nail varnishes even though I've got toooo many but ohhh well haha :D I saw this colour and immediately had to get it because it reminded me of Parma Violets sweets (if you aren't familiar with them Google it) but the picture doesn't do it justice I'm afraid :/



I also wanted to get the Sunset Daylight Curing topcoat because I'd recently bought the nail varnish called 'Drive Me Navy' (which is what I'm wearing on my nail throughout these pictures) and I thought I'd try it out :D


Then finally I went to Topshop (my guilty pleasure). I really wanted to find some more rings because, as you'll see in my last post, I bought a mixture of midi and normal rings and have been wearing them constantly so had to get some more and if I'm honest I only really like 1 of these rings but thought I'd still get them and wear them to get used to them if you get me ;)


The one I'm reeeeaalllllyyyy loving is the hexagon one with the nude colour gem stone in it by the way :D

Then on the way to the queue I decided to get a plain white t-shirt because I haven't got one!! But I decided to get it in the biggest size because I wanted it to be pretty baggy rather than fitted. P.S. sorry the tops creased :/





So there you gooo :) that's what I bought todayy. I hope you had a really good day whatever you're doing and in the comments below tell me what you did today.

Thank you sooo much!!

See you later guys.

Valentines Shopping Haul.

Hey Guys!!

Happy Valentines Day!! 

So...how's it hanging, what's up? Anything new?? I know I know I haven't uploaded my January Favourites or my latest Suds Sunday but my Suds Sunday was the same as last time and I didn't really have any new favourites for January because I was using the same products as last time hahaa!! :D

Anyway, I hope your having an amazing Valentines Day and I personally think that everyone should be treated on Valentines Day whether you have a boyfriend or girlfriend or are single. So go on! Splurge out on those shoes! Buy more than 1 of your favourite lipstick! So that's what I did and I didn't hold back :') So get yourself a cup of tea or whatever you want to drink and let's get started! Oh...p.s. please excuse the rubbish nail job :/ I did it last night as my other nail varnish had completely chipped off so I slapped on Essie 'A-list' a standard staple of a bright cherry red <3

So let's begin...

TOPSHOP


Sorry for the angle :/


Anyway, I needed to go and get some new socks as the majority of my favourites had holes in and was causing me blisters so of course dinosaur socks are the way forward for me and because the offer was 3 pairs of socks for £8.50 I spotted (see what I did there! :D) these cute cow ones and well...they're just too cute to leave :)

Then because I had a £10 voucher for Topshop for Christmas I bought this dainty nail varnish in the colour 'Crack your Code' which is a baby coral with flecks of white bits in.




Then I went into Boots... (cue dramatic music) :'D

Firstly I bought a complete classic from the Essie section and that is 'Fiji'. A beautiful pale pink :)



Now...because there was an offer on buy 1 Maybelline product and get the 2nd half price, I couldn't say no :D So I purchased the Maybelline Colorsensational Elixir Lip in 'Caramel Infused' and for the 2nd product I got the Maybelline Falsies Mascara and I blame Tanya Burr! (You'll know if you watch her videos)









Now the last thing I bought from Boots I'd seen quite a few times but I sort of thought 'why would I need that when I've got similar products' but it was only when I opened it up in store and saw how matte they were when the ones I have have a slight shimmer too them. So I got it. Yes I'm talking about the Barry M Chisel Cheeks Contour Kit which includes a highlighter, a lighter bronzer and a darker bronzer and like I said earlier, they are all completely matte.




Then it was time for Superdrug...

Now I've been reeeeallllyyy wanting to try out bloggers and YouTubers Tanya Burr, Zoella and Ruth Crilly but could never find any of the products anywhere for about a month...until today!!!!

So, first on my mind was Ruth's dry hair shampoo. Her dry shampoo comes in 5 scents; New York, Paris, London, Tokyo and Rio and I decided to choose the Paris scent which is the florally one of them all but just in case I either didn't like the formula or the scent, I chose the mini version :)


Then it was time for Zoe's products. If I'm honest I was really only looking for her bath bar thing and I managed to get the last one!! Woop! Woop! Haha! :D But yeah, this is called the 'Fizz Bar' and basically looks like a white bar of chocolate and when you want a bath you can put as many pieces of the 'chocolate' in as you want. But just remember, you can't eat it!! But the smell is very refreshing sort of reminds me of 'Dragon Egg' from Lush. But the packaging is wayyy cuter :3


And last but by no means least, Miss Tanya Burr's cosmetics. Now I'm not normally a fan of lip gloss' mainly due to the fact that they've always been very sticky, too sweet smelling and just generally bad quality so I decided to pick a neutral colour to wear so that if I didn't like it, I wouldn't feel as guilty because there would be a similar colour in another brand, rather than having a beautiful colour and not enjoying the formula and not being able to find a dupe for it. Do you get me? Nope...okayyy :/ So yeah, I picked 'Picnic in the Park' again because she goes on about it sooo much she convinced me that I need it in my life and well...now I do :D







Now I'm quite a fan of eyelashes but every pair I've bought look too fake but on one of Tanya's vlogs I think it was either Niomi that was wearing them or Tanya and they looked amazing! So, I bought the 'Date Night' ones which I thought looked the most natural without being too natural if you get me :')




Then whilst I was browsing around I also found a new nail varnish from Model's Own and it's the Colour Chrome collection and I was really intrigued into what the pay off of the colour would be so I chose the shade 'Chrome Pink'.



As well as this nail varnish, I also spotted a new rail of Max Factor and immediately saw the blushes. Like. Oh...my...god. Beautiful. The colour of them reminds me of the Hourglass Ambient Lighting Blushes but obviously less expensive haha! They are the new Max Factor Creme Puff Blusher in the shade 'Lavish Mauve'.






And that's it. I hope you enjoyed my Valentines Day haul and you have an amazing day and tell me in the comments what you did on Valentines Day? :)

Thank you sooo much!!

See you guys later.
