This weeks make-up buys

I went into town earlier this week and inevitably ended up in Superdrug. I was there mostly just to stock up and replace products I'd run out of but I still thought it would be nice to share my buys. 

Maybelline Falsies Mascara - I have been using this mascara almost everyday for quite a while now and I really like it. It curls as well as lengthens my lashes. Its also only £8. It does need replacing every few weeks, like most mascaras, as it does get clumpy. 

Rimmel Lasting Finish Primer - This is a new purchase. I needed a primer because I don't actually use one and my foundation usually wears off pretty easily over the course of the day and by mid day my skin looks pretty much how it did pre-make-up. So I decided to give this a try, I actually got a sample of it in a Feel Unique order and I liked how it felt on my skin. Saying that I haven't really had it long enough or tested it out enough to tell you how I feel about this one. The real test will be seeing if it can make my foundation last all day while I'm at work. 

Rimmel Wake Me Up Concealer - I've used this concealer in the past a lot and I really like it so that's why I've gone with this one again! It doesn't give the best coverage ever but it does help to make your skin appear a bit brighter, which is exactly what I need first thing in the morning, especially under my eyes. I also use the Wake Me Up Foundation and I quite like my concealer and foundation to match, is anyone else like that?! Maybe I'm just a weirdo!

Lottie Tweezers - Not much to report here! I just needed some new tweezers because I had 'misplaced' mine. I'd been searching for them for a couple of days and of course as soon as I bought these new ones they turned up!

Burt's Bees lip balms - I actually got these from Holland and Barrett. I don't usually go in here but my boyfriend wanted to go to look at protein (so boring). I had no idea they sold Burt's Bees lip balms, i picked up a cherry one and an ultra conditioning one. My lips are a big problem in that they're always chapped and dry. The ultra conditioning lip balm is working really well so far though so maybe I can finally sort them out!

That's all I got this time! There's a few more products I'd like to try out soon, maybe I'll post a wishlist!

Mini Superdrug haul!

Is it really June already! Really! My motivation to blog lately has been 0% so I haven't posted anything in a while! I really couldn't think of anything I was exited about enough to write about, I think every blogger has these moments (if I can call myself a blogger!). One thing that did excite me this week was going to collect my Superdrug order, bit sad but there you go. I thought I would share my purchases with you...

First item on my list was the colab dry shampoo, I can't live without dry shampoo. I usually get batise dry shampoo but after reading a blog about it I decided to try this one instead! It does smell a little bit masculine, I mean I love the smell but maybe not on me. 

I also got some mascara, (NAME) the one o was using was coming the the end of its life (RIP) and was getting a bit to clumpy to use. All I can say is I'm happy with this so far! There was no particular reason why I bought this one, I go for waterproof because, well I live in England and it's rainy and windy. 

I bought some Rommel bb cream, I really like this! I got it because I don't really like wearing foundation and I don't really feel like I need to most days, but we all have bad skin days and this is light and moisturising. I got mine in very light, I think that's the lightest shade! 

I got the makeup sponges not to apply makeup but to try out some different nail art. Incase you were wondering the first 2 attempts did not go well, but it's all about trial and error! Another product I got was Barry M makeup brushes, I got one for concealer and one for eyeshadow, turns out they're both the same brush! No complaints about these so far, they do the job! 

In skincare I got some makeup wipes, no need to explain that and some eye roll on from simple. This has all kinds of good stuff like cucumber to wake your eyes up, I use it in the morning! I also got a cocoa butter body scrub, oh my goodness, I've only used this once and it's amazing. It smells really good and the smell sticks around for a while. It makes my skin feel soooo smooth and soft, which is always good!

Well I think that's all from my little haul, I'm sure they'll be plenty more to come! I hope I'll have another post to show you when my nail art is successful, any tips for ombré nails? 

Have a lovely day :)

Oops I went to lush!

So this week i took a trip to my favorite shop in the world, lush! I love lush, I actually can not stress enough how much I love the place. All the staff are sooo friendly and it smells sooo amazing! So anyway, I didn't go too crazy and ended up buying 6 things. So...

 This is the d'fluff strawberry shaving soap, its lovely, as you can imagine it smells a bit like strawberries but I'm not super keen on the smell but it makes my legs feel lovelyyy so I can deal with it!

Ok so pictured here are the Karma bubble bar and the hottie massage bar. Again im not super keen on the smell of the massage bar, its not a bad smell, just smells kinda natural, but oh my goodness it is lovely. 

The bubble bar however is maybe the best thing I have ever smelled, it smells like oranges! I wouldn't say I prefer it to the comforter but its definitely on par. It made plenty of bubbles and turned my bath a lovely orange! did i mention that it also smelled AMAZING?

I ran out of toner and decided to try this one from Lush, I'm not exactly sure if it works like a toner by helping to tighten pores etc. but it smells bootiful and it makes my skin feel just really calm and soothed. It smells mostly of lavender as well which adds to the calming effect.

This is my second lip balm from lush, I haven't used it enough yet to judge how good it is but i loved my last one so I'm sure i'll love this one too! So far though I really like it, its not a strong lemony scent but smells lovely. 

I also brought a face mask called catastrophe cosmetic, I didn't take a picture as it had already made it to the fridge when I took the photos (its supposed to be kept in there to keep it freshhh!) I have purchased this before and I love it, it smells amazing and leaves your skin looking fresh! Its good to help soothe red skin and it works really well for me.

Well that's the end of my lush haul...for now! I'm sure I'll be back with more!

Thanks for reading!
