Mini Haul

I did abit of shopping yesterday and firstly was this blush from Wilkinsons own range Image, it was £1.00, and I dont think the photo does it justice, it is the prettyist pale pink ever, I think it may even be better as a highlighter than a blush as on the skin it really is very pale but I just think its gorgeous. The wilkos range is actually quite good for the price, Ive had a few lipglosses before which were good and the mascara smells really nice, I didnt know mascara could smell nice but apparently so at wilkinsons..

This photo is it close up but the flash pretty much covers it :/
Next I was back in T J Hughes yet again and they had a lot of new stuff in from N.Y.C (New york colour), I picked up this mineral foundation powder for £2.00 which came with a tiny little kabuki brush which isnt much use but its cute :). I got this is the shade natural light and its actually really good, I used it today instead of my Elizabeth Arden powder foundation and I couldnt tell much difference. It also has spf12 in it aswell!
The T J Hughes I went to only had this shade and a paler one which was a finishing powder, I plan to get this next time I go as that was also only £2 so worth a try.




There was also a few N.Y.C nail glosses for £1 each, I got 2, This is 241, and its a gorgeous metallic blue which is proper shimmery in the light, making it change colour, It also has vinyl shine and pro vitamin B5.


This 2nd one is 207, which is a nude pink shade which is lovely, have worn this today and I really like it. They are quite big bottles with a square block lid, and to make it easier to put the gloss on the square lid comes off to reveal a smaller more easy to use lid.

This is 207 on, Im not sure the photo shows it very well, really need to get a memory card for my camera so I can stop using the crappy one on my phone :(

T J Hughes buys

Just a quick post about yet another few things Ive bought from T J Hughes this week, they have some Elizabeth Arden products in at the moment, theres a really nice little foldable pallete with a blusher and a few eye shadows, a lipgloss and a airbrush bronzer, all around £6 from what I can remember. Anyway, I picked up this Shimmer powder called everything glows which was also £6, its in a really nice little compact with a mirror and a fancy top as in the photo below:


This is a photo of the powder with the flash, not a very good one but you get the idea, its very shimmery but makes a great highlighter. It also came with a little kabuki style brush which I also love, although I have a few elizabeth arden ones already from buying bronzers and they all tend to shred quickly which I am disappointed about when the products are expensive.

This is it on the right without the flash, looks a lot darker than it is, and the brush.
On the left is a lovely blusher I also got from there which is w7, it was £1.50 and comes with a little flat brush which I havent really been bothering with. It looks very dark on the photo but its a really flattering shade for me as its a nice rosey pink colour.
