Avon nail paints in slate grey and satin (matte) topcoat,
£1 Primark Falsies,
Benefit Mini Sampler Set,
MUA Eye Shadow (love this neutral shade even for eyebrows,)
Collection Concealer ( I hope its as good second time around,)
Revlon ColourBurst Matte Balms in Elusive & Audacious,
Essential handbag antibacterial gel,
 

Tresemme naturals humidity control mousse (not sure about this after one use...,)
Tresemme waterless foam shampoo - this is certainly a impulse purchase i don't now what i was thinking.

I only ever buy Vo5 when there on offer 2 for £5 so guess what they were on offer! 
It's great to get a bargain as aswell as try new products to include in my non existent hair routine.

Last of all i only bought this because of uglyfaceofbeauty, it's blumming brilliant is all I've got to say!


Over the past few years I've come to love The Body Shop products they are just amazing full of goodness that my skin is crying out for so after trying a few of the smaller sizes i took advantage of the £25 off £50 spend would have been rude not to!

N-spa skin treats are currently on offer at asda i always head down the beauty isle and somehow end up needing to pop these bits into my basket so with the health & beauty event happening there was an amazing deal 3 for £10 who could turn that down?
 
 
Finally got my hands on the infamous micellar water dupes excited to try these,
 
There we have i spend way more than i expected to but Ive been loving all my new skincare goodies and I'm finally getting round to having a 'proper' routine it's not perfected just yet but I'll be sure to share what works for me soon.
 


Tried any new products you'd recommend?

Primark Fashion Haul | 2014

Sunday 9 March 2014


For me a spending ban is never going to work out as I'd hoped but i can assure you i'm slowing saving for the future. As for right now though, primark was my first target to satisfy my cravings for all things fashion & beauty.

 

These basic tees are just £4 even though they're slightly see thorough the statement necklaces look great with them.

  

This is the  last thing i popped into my basket and my favourite piece for my spring wardrobe this season.
 

 

Again i couldn't believe how this pink crochet top is so perfect for summer wear was only £4.


 

A necklace not to big or small looks great for casual & even more dressed up looks bargain at £3
 

These cardigans are great they have a slouched relax seam so of course i had to pick up three for essential purposes.
 
 

Red is not usually my colour but my work wardrobe seemed to be looking a bit drab so for just £5 i couldn't resist. 



 

I'm too sure about this one still it some how ended up in my basket. 

 

I honestly can't wait to get back into flats again its been too long wearing just boots.

 

The style of this dress flatters my figure so much as the stripes take away the attention from my wide hips while the skater skirt bottom falls just at the right making them the perfect dress for me.



 Another essential cropped cardigan.

 

Yes you guessed it a longer essential speckled tee 

 

  
Everyone's gotta love an extra saving in Primark i got two of these over sized jumpers for £10 all together. Reduced from £12!

A Few February Favourites...




I don't have the best feet (or toes) so caring for my feet is defiantly something I'm sticking to this year. 
So once I've scrubbed my feet with a pumice stone, i use the Heel Genius from Soap & Glory it works a treat and smells so good full of citrus'y goodness then i just pop on a few pairs of socks overnight and I'm done, in the morning my feet are super soft.

Along with the theme of taking better care for my skin the Body Shop Body Brush
this is something i now use religiously, an essential i don't know what I've done without it. 

Next is the amazing Benefit's There real Mascara i repurchased this a few days before Christmas for a gift to myself as you do and boy i'm glad i did, it's just wow it intensify's, lengthens and makes my fair coloured lashes look amazing so worth the money. A top favourite of mine. 

I've been starting to read the The Hunger Games trilogy so far so good.



I love the Monsters University Film why is Mike Wazowski so cute as a baby!

This show is amazing i can't wait to see how it all pans out PRETTY LITTLE LIARS.

  Last of all i can't get enough of this tune its what I've been bopping to in the car on the way to work (not literally i maybe strange but if i start to dance while driving it = disaster, i can't multitask!)



What's your favourite song of all time?



Get Spring Ready | Nuxe Wishlist

Saturday 8 March 2014


Winter blues for me are just about disappearing considering winter's my favourite season of all. 
Getting into the swing of summer is what I'm preparing for best i can so when this competition popped up i thought I'd take my chances.

Nuxe products are ones that you lust over and definatly makes them wishlist worthy Here's a few in my wishlist to get spring/summer ready with.
  
 Rêve de Miel® Ultra-Nourishing Lip Balm
 Lip colour for the spring/summer season is immense this year from the orange to the lilac hues to a classic red with everything in between. So of course keeping them looking and feeling fantastic has to be at the top of everyone's checklist.


Crème Fraîche® de Beauté Mask

On to the face, a 24hr mositurising mask that is the perfect essential for a smooth hydrated base. One thing that really makes me want to try it out is it helps with redness & burning sensations, i think it'd be a great match with my pale skin & the summer months.

 

Rêve de Miel® Facial Cleansing and Make-Up Removing Gel

 Everyone needs super clean skin, me being one of them. I have to admit face wipes sometime most of the time become my BFF which pains me to say so i think its about time i invested in a great product for a brand spanking new skincare routine.

 

 Rêve de Miel® Ultra-Comfortable Foot Cream

I always dread sandal season it means i  feel obligated to paint my toes otherwise they'll look more disgusting than they do already not only that, out comes the moisturising foot cream with the ankle socks and the foot grater (do they have a technical name?) so get foot cream on your list & those feet beautified!

 

 NUXE BODY Fondant Body Scrub

I really hate ditching the layers, tights and everything else i get too attached to my cosy clothing. But i guess if i was walking around like that in 25 degrees t'is not gonna turn out well.

So if my legs and arms are making an appearance i need to be ready for action with an invigorating body scrub paired with a delious scented body cream.

 

 My list would be arms length long if i had my way but i restrained myself with a selection of amazing products i think you'll agree we all need as ammunition to get it right this summer! 

 

What's your essential product for summer?
