Mini Haul







Hi! 

Recently, I went for a wander around town and these's are a few of the goodies I picked up:


Snow Fairy shower gel - Lush [x]
Seventeen Stay Pout (It's a Kiss off) - Boots [x]
Maybelline 24h colour tattoo (Metallic Pomegranate) - Superdrug [x]
Seventeen 'Phwoarr' paint (heavy duty eye concealer) - Boots [x]
Seventeen Glitter Nail Effects (Green) - Boots [x] (similar)

Lush have recently brought out their Christmas range (Yay Christmas!!) and I decided to go along and pick up the Snow Fairy shower gel, I always see so many people talk about how gorgeous the smell is and that it's a must have and they aren't wrong! It's the most lovely smell (literally of sweets) ! It has sparkles mixed in too which creates a beautiful purple swirl inside the bottle.

Boots are currently doing a 3 for 2 on Seventeen (cheapest product free) So I decided to take a browse around the range. I've been looking for a Autumn lipstick and I found the most perfect colour for me 'It's a Kiss off' from the 'Stay Pout' Seventeen range is such a gorgeous dark pink. It's a matte lipstick and honestly, it's amazing. I've been wearing it all day without having to top it up, at all (even after drinking copious amounts of tea) I am so pleased I purchased this lipstick.

The next product I picked up from the Seventeen range is the 'Phwoarr Paint' "The One. The hard core concealer to wage war on under eye circles" I have always been troubled with dark circles under my eyes, I've tried so many different concealers but none ever seem to hide them, this concealer is a DREAM. I got it in the Fair shade and it really does wage war on my dark circles. My eyes look more away and brighter and the concealer itself comes in a little compact with a mirror so I carry it around in case I ever need to cover up on the go.

The final product I bought from the Seventeen range was the Glitter Nail effect varnish, I decided to go with Green sparkles because Christmas is just around the corner and I thought it would be perfect to get into the Christmas spirit. 

As well as a perfect Autumn lipstick I've also been looking for the perfect Autumn eyeshadow. I've seen many positive reviews on the blogosphere about the Maybelline 24hr colour tattoo so I decided to take the plunge myself and try it out. I got it in the shade 'Metallic Pomegrante' which is a beautiful burgundy/brown shade with a lovely shimmer. I'll do a Make up post soon showing what it looks like!

Thank you for reading! I hope you enjoyed this post.

July Favourites.

Hi! I can't believe there's only a couple of days until August, only one more month and then i'll be moving into my uni house, exciting times! I thought I'd do a post on my favourite finds of July as there have been some particular favourites this month.



Coral Pink bag - I picked this up (brand new) from a charity shop for £5.00. It had never been used and was in perfect condition, I've been using this quite a lot, especially with this nice weather we've been having in England, the colour is perfect for summer. 

Garnier BB Cream (Miracle Skin Perfector) - I have been absolutely LOVING this! I got the light shade and I just find it's so perfect to wear in this hot weather. The main thing that drew me to buying this BB Cream in particular was its "Combination to oily skin" promise, meaning it helps fight the oily skin look, and it really does. This is my go to product when its too hot to wear a normal foundation. 

Soap & Glory SUPERCAT (Carbon Black) eyeliner pen - I have been looking to try a new eyeliner pen for a while now and I saw this post [x] which urged me into buying the Soap & Glory pen. I am so pleased I did, unlike pervious liquid eyeliners I have used that have a poor brush that runs out VERY fast, the Soap & Glory pen has a felt tip pen which makes everything easier. It's quick and easy to apply and drys super fast.

LUSH Cosmetic Warrior Fresh Face Mask - At first I was going to buy a face mask from The Body Shop but at £12.00 I wanted to save my money so I took a trip into Lush and got talking to a lovely girl that worked in there who suggested I try the Cosmetic Warrior face mask. I have relatively clear skin (because I drink FAR too much water) but I get so many blackheads on my nose, the girl at Lush showed me this product which "combats spots and soothes troubled skins" She told me she uses it herself and would definitely recommend it, so I got it. It is amazing, not only does it leave my skin SUPER soft, the blackheads on my nose have drastically reduced. I use it once every other day in my routine before I go to bed. It cost me £6.00 and you keep it in the fridge, it lasts 3-4 weeks. Admittedly, it does have a funny smell but it is so worth it (and half the price of the face mask from The Body Shop)!  

I hope you enjoyed reading this!

What have your favourite things from July been? 


Bye for now. :)
