make up and shoes !

Just a quick one to let you know about some things I bought yesterday, firstly I got these 2 natural collection lipsticks from boots, they are both the moisture shine ones, on the left is coral shimmer and the right is rose petal.
The first is a gorgeous mid dark pink with a shimmer but I love it and its totally wearable, I wanted one that would give me some colout without being too obvious and this is perfect and was under £2. The rose petal is a really pretty pink, when I first tried it though it broke apart, I think it had got too hot in my shopping bag so now its a bit bent :/

The top photo is with the flash and below is without.

I also got another 17 nail polish, I am in love with the tropical island one I did a post about as a nail of the day, I am still wearing it now and everyone says they love it, this is a limited edition one from the new summer collection and its called coral reef, I havent used it yet but its abit more pink and darker than the other, looking forward to using it though and will post a photo in the next few days when I have.

Lastly, some shoes, these were half price down from £18 to £9 at peacocks, I think they are so nice! they are like a snake sin effect and a bluey purple colour, they also had them in tan and pink too!

Shoes and a bit of shopping!

Hey everyone, so a few days ago I went into Manchester to do some shopping ready for my hols as Im working pretty much every day now untill I go away on the 8th. Firstly I want to show you the shoes I got as I love them both, These first ones are from Primark and were £9, they are the most gorgeous colour, the photo doesnt really show it 2 well but its a corally orange, I love this colour at the moment! the heels not too big and they feel comfy so Im pleased I got these as I had seen them on a blog before and thought they looked nice.

Second pair are these brown wedges from Faith, these were £35 down from about £65, I love them!

Also in primark, I got this black heart shaped bag for £4 to take away as its not too big to carry around, a tiny purse just to keep some money in for about £1.50 i think, again in a corally colour, and a smaller make up bag as mine is huge and would take up half my suitcase, I am going to go through it all and pick out the most important stuff and take it all in this smaller bag, this was about £3.

I got this peachy blush from Primark for £1, I wore this the last few days and its a really nice colour and good quality for primark too, there was a few different shades so Im going to get the others next time I go too! The eye shadows were about £2.50 from H & M, they are really shimmery and pigminted so looking forward to playing around with these!

I also got this little bow necklace from H & M, it was cheap about £1.99, and the clasp at the back has another small gold bow coming off it, I love it, wore it the other day and got loads of compliments about it!

Next up is the garnier body tonic firming lotion, I have been using the boots expert cellulite cream but after going through 2 lots I decided to use up all the other stuff I had such as the nivea goodbye cellulite before I spent any more money. that ran out last night and then I saw this in morrisons for just over £2.50 and remembered I had read about it being really good in a magazine the other day so I got this, Im not too keen on the smell but hopefully it will do the job.

Finally back to Primark, I got these little bottles and pots for 99p! Im going to put my cleanser and stuff in them to save space as I already cant shut my suitcase and Its not even packed fully! cant believe how cheap they were as later in boots I saw them selling one of the bottles for £1.49 on its own! It also comes with stickers to label your stuff which I thinks a good idea!

Lastly I got another wash off tan from Primark, £1.50 from what I can remember, they had a matte one and a shimmer one, I got the matt one and this is it below on my hand, It rubs in well and does leave a nice bronzed colour, but I dont think the tube would go far if using it on the whole body so I might go back and get some more before I go.

So primarks got loads of nice stuff in, also got some lovely summer dresses and a few other bits, let me know if you would like to see a post with a few photos of them!

Thanks for reading x

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 :(

I finally got a Ped-egg, £9.99 from Wilkinsons, Ive been wanting one for ages but thought they were abit pricey, but then they got a pink one and I just had to buy it, I was abit apprehensive at first but I think its great and my feet definately feel smoother even after only using it about 3 times! Plus its pink :)


I also got this Clinique set from Boots, I think it was around £26, so its really just paying for the Dramitically different moisturising lotion and getting a trial size of the clarifying lotion and face wash free, I have been using this every day since and Im nearly out of the trial ones but I think they work really well, my face has cleared up and my skin feels alot softer and alot less dry. Im planning on getting the full size version of the Clarifying lotion next week which is £13.70 according to the Clinique website.


Lastly, is the Boots expert Total body anti-cellulite cream. I LOVE this, been using it for weeks now and I have definatly seen a difference, Im even on to my second bottle now! definately worth the £6 or so that it costs!

I went shopping today after work today to treat myself abit after finishing my exams, I got this gosh bronzer from Superdrug for about £13, its called the giant sun powder and its really nice and golden. The pics are shut and open.

These sprays are really fruity and 88p buy 1 get 1 free, just thought they would be nice and cheap to take on holiday, these are from superdrug aswell.

I got this face mask from boots,im sturggling to sort out the eczema tht came up the other day, doesnt seem 2 be calming down at all so I thought this might be soothing and will get rid of the spots I got stressing about my exams and it was about 98p.

I got this after seeing it on pheobe's finds blog, was £5.86 from boots, its quite dark but im gonna give it a try when my face clears up as at the moment all of my make up is just clinging to my dry skin and being patchy :(.

Whilst in superdrug I picked up my fave mascare the max factor false lash effect in black waterprrof to take on holiday, got it now while its still on offer.

This is a simple derma intensive relief lotion which was £2.99 in boots after having 1/3 off, it says its great for eczema sufferers and itscheap so worth a try, this is a big 400ml bottle, hope its good.

I love my vasaline lip pots so I got this one from boots for myholiday as it has spf 15, it was £1.69, I payed for all my boots things with points though as I had about £15 pounds worth.

I have seen this next Loreal mascara on alot of blogs so I grabbed it at the check outs in superdrug as it was only about £5.50 or something, but have got home and realised its in brown as I didnt think to check at the checkout, just grabbed it so going to take it back and try and change it for a black one tomorrow.

I went into Wilkinsons and got some sudacrem for my spots, had to replace my other pot as my mum took it and used it on my nephews bum :/

Lastly, I got some sun cream from wilkos aswell, a 400ml sun cream in spf 30 which was £4.99, I got 2 of these ready for my holidays and got 2 free 200ml bottles of aftersun, I used these sun creams last year and they work just as well as the more expensive makes and I would really recommend you check them out, theres all spfs and you can get spray bottles too.
