ELF Haul! Studio Range....

Hey girls...

So my Elf order came, yaaay!  Very quickly - like the nexy day!!  As well as getting my lashes, the hollywood lashes and the party lashes kit as I said in my previous post, I decided to order some more things as there was a free shipping code for orders over £10 :)

I got the Shimmer palette

Shimmer Palette

Complexion perfection palette

Complexion Perfection
Blush and bronzer compact

Blush and Bronzer Compact
Bronzers in 'warm'

Bronzers
Lip gloss charms for my phone :)

Hypershine Mini Mobile Lip Gloss Charms

and another elf blush brush

Took pics of my little stash but left my camera at home and I'm work at the min, grrr! 

Soooo excited to use the shimmer palette!  The very first thing I noticed with them was how smooth and creamy and blendable they were, was not expecting that at all!!  Was expecting them to be very hard and sticky but very impressed with them.  Think I will use them as an eye base and for shimmer on my cheeks, face etc.

The bronzers are very good but this is just me swatching them, need to play with them for a few weeks before I make my mind up!

So yes, very impressed with the studio range so far - its my first time I have bought anything.

Small Avon haul :)

Hey girls,

Haven't really been buying much makeup lately due to 'trying' to save up! 
Got a few bits from the avon this week :) and quite excited about trying out the nude nail polishes I have finally got!

Nails:  Nailwear pro in the colour perfectly flesh and a speed dry nail colour in ballerina!  Looking forward to putting them on, hope they turn out nice!!

Lips: Pink Bouquet lip liner and a glazewear shine lipgloss in 'nude'.  Loving all the nude stuff at the minute

Face: Illuminator which you put on under foundation for that 'dewy' look.  Was on offer and wanted to try it for a while.

Thats it!!  A small one - swatches up soon :)

Does anyone else have the nail colours??  What do you think?!!

Superdrug Haul & GOSH Darling!

Hey,

I went to superdrug earlier as I have read a LOT of people raving about the Gosh lipstick darling.  I wanted to see what all the fuss as about so I got one, yay, the last in the shop!  Looking forward to using this as I haven't really been into the whole Nude lips so I'm really excited about it!  Im kind of in a makeup rut at the moment so need inspiration. 

This colour looks gorgeous on a lot of people's pics in blogs :)




I also got 3 more of my FAVE ever foundations but all in different colours!  Its the Loreal True Match foundation.  I fake tan so every day my colouring is different!  I normally use the shade N4 which I got again but bought it in W1 and W3 also for the days when I am really pale or in between.  These were the only shades left so just got them - not sure how they will look on my skin! 



Swatches of Barry M lip products

Got another Barry M lipgloss too - love these, the number on this one is 4 and more of an iced pink colour.  Its smells like strawberry hubba bubba!!! lovely!  Also got the Lip Lacquer crayon in number 5 but not sure what this is!  the colour is just pretty, does anyone else have this?!  Am looking forward to experimenting with it all.  Im supposed to be saving money :(  its not working!!

LUSH Goodies!!

Hey,

So as I mentioned yesterday I went to Lush today and bought a lip scrub yaaaay!  I heard about these on WSITN's youtube account as they were a different brand? and Lush was taking them over etc... soooo as I have really really dry scabby horrible lips I wanted them straight away!  I have looked everywhere for Lip exfoliators and could never find them. 

While I was in there I got a tree Tree Water spray as I also read on someone's blog, cant remember, that if you have really really dry skin, you spray this on your face and it prepares your skin to accept your moisturuser!  But when I have bought it - its a toner? Hmm not sure I will have to try this out!



The lip scrub?  I LOVE it!!  I am at work now and cant stop applying it to my lips :)  The ingredients are caster sugar, oils, flavourings etc and this aint good for my diet as I keep licking it off hehe.  I got the flavour Mint Julips which is a peppermint and chocolate flavour. mmmm.  I did want the strawberry one but the sales assistant they sold out almost immediately and that they are getting a delivery in tomorrow noooooooooo why did she have to tell me that?! I am supposed to be saving money!  i want it I want it I want it!

All my flakiness has gone already and only bought it an hour ago!  I then applied my vaseline and my lips feel so smooth.  This is my new fave lip product :)  I know your thinking its only a lip scrub jeez but seriously - I have never come across anything like this before as lip balm alone does not heal my chapped lips!

Does anyone have the Tea Tree Water?  What do you think of it?!

Small boots and WH Smith haul :)

Hey girlies,

Ran to boots yesterday after reading Jo had been! Got a few things as I had 4 £5 No7/ruby vouchers to spend, woo! 
I was looking for an eye cream but really have no idea what to get!  Any ideas??  All the eye creams I have had just sting like crazy I must have a super duper sensitive eye area :(  Or I am just picking up totally rubbish creams?!! 
I have tried an avon anew eye cream but didn't think too much of it to be honest :(

Anyway this is what I got:

I got Lauren's book! yeeey!  Kept meaning to get this, I love Lauren, Im always watching her on youtube and she's from the north! hehe.  Have flicked through it but havent read it properly to be honest. 

Anyone else have this?? :)

From boots I got a face wash, an eye makeup remover and a speed dry nail colour (forgot the name, I am at work blogging at the moment so will get this when I go home) and the sales lady recommended the new Radiance Booster hot cleansing cloth to me so will have to try that out!  Its basically a cream you put all over your face and then you get a muslin cloth inside and you run it under a hot tap, squeeze excess water off and lay with it over your face.  The lady said it was like having a lovely facial at a salon haha so cant wait to try that!

 Byeee x
