Beauty Haul. May Edition






Hey Guys,


This is the second half of my beauty haul.  

I'm going to start with the four purple lipsticks, I seem to have accumulated. I have recently bought my first Models Own Colour Lip-Stix, in the purple shade, there is no name on it, so I will have to insert it later. This cost just £5. Another one I got is the MUA in Lilac Belle, which obviously cost £1 and is Matte. I have also bought the Little Mix for Collection in Perrie which is around £3. Away on the other side of the scale is the Revlon Matte Balm in Desinvolte which was around £7.99

The Pink lipsticks I have picked up are Bourjois Rouge Edition Velvet in shade 5 Ole Flamingo, cost £9, Collection Sweet Tart, £2.99 this is a fairly bright pink, which will be great for everyday wear. Collection Cream Puff in the shade cotton candy, a nice matte lip cream. I have also finnaly got my hands on a Kate Moss lipstick in the shade 110, which is a bright pinky coral shade, which cost around £4 on a boots deal. 

The last few lipsticks I have recently bought are a sheer orange lipstick by Revlon which cost £7.99 and is in the shade carnival spirit. I also grabbed a few others of the Little Mix for Collection Lipsticks in the shades Jade which is a gorgeous muted nude colour and Jesy which is a vibrant red colour. 

Finally something that isn't lips related, I have gotten some of the new Kate Moss eye collection, In fact I got the emerald Green Gel eyeliner ( which is stunning on), a couple of the eye crayons, in rose gold and Electric Sapphire. Lastly from her collection I got the Rocking Curves Mascara, but just in the very black colour. 






Finally the last few things are my holy grail concealer the Collection lasting perfections concealer in 1 fair, Rimmel Stay Matte powder in Pink Blossom and the Maybelline Go Colossal Extreme Volum' mascara. 

Phew that is a massive haul. I do plan on doing some reviews on the products, hopefully some time will be freed up and I can start blogging properly again. 


Glossybox May 2014 Superdrug turns 50 collab

Hey Guys, 

This months Glossybox, was a very nice surprise. Firstly I somehow managed to buy two boxes. Don't ask, trying to update your payment method before a 8am start, it didn't work well for my bank. 

That being said I have 2 very different boxes to show you guys. 

In my normal box I got, Max factor Facefinity All Day Primer (£10.99, full size), Maybelline New York Great Lash Mascara in very black (£4.99, full size), 2 true PRO 3D Candy Nail Art (£3 full size), B. Sheer Conditioning Lipstick in Petal (£6.99 full size) and Vaseline Spray and Go Coco (£4.99, full size). 
This box is my favourite, it is all full sizes and I was very excited about everything when I seen what was inside. I have always been wanting to try some of the B. cosmetics, as I have tried their Miscellar water, so the lipstick was very interesting to me. Box cost roughly £30


On the same day  I had to wizz down to the post office to collect the other box, that had came the previous day, but I was at work. 

So in this box, I got: Scholl Velvet Smooth Night Mask, (£7.99 full size), Collection Bronze Glow bronzer (£2.99 full size), I love, Strawberries& milkshake lipgloss ( £1.29 full size) B. Complete Nail Polish in Quartz (£4.99 full size) and finally Blow Pro After Blow (Hairspray and sample size). Box cost nearly £20.

In both boxes I got 2 samples of Garnier Oil beauty lotion and a perfume sample of Ghost Eclipse. 

Both of these boxes have got some really good things in them and I do look forward to using and testing them out. Be sure to look out for some reviews on some of them.

Beauty Haul: Nails Edition

Hey Guys, 

This is a long time coming, I have been doing a lot of shopping recently and have accumulated a fair amount of stuff, that I want to show you all. I did think about doing a video on youtube, but chickened out. 

I'm going to begin with my first little splurge on nail products. Then the rest should be in another post as I seem to have gotten a large amount of nail things. 

First of all from my work. 
I kind of got a stash of the Sally Hansen Salon Effects Real Nail Polish strips. I have six of them in total as, I tried a set out and fell in love with them. So I pretty much got one of each kind that my work had. 
I got 2 of the french Mani ones in Polka Party 006 and Silver Lining 002. Both of which are like normal french manicure but with a twist in the tips which are a bit different from the norm. Which I love. 
I also got Animal Instinct 440(Pink zebra), Tweed-Le-Dee 550 (grey tartan), I Love Lacey 480 (red based with a lace over lay.) and Check Please 235 ( Black and White check). These cost be a mere £1 in Bargain Buys. 

Another thing I got at Bargain Buys and another Sally Hansen product, that I seem to have just went gaga over. I bought 3 in one day without even trying them out. The Sally Hansen complete manicure Glitters. I think these were from the Christmas range as these have some very Christmas feeling names. I have 20 Fa-La-La-Lavender, 30 3,2, 1derland and 40 Midnight Glitz. These are all a clear base with loads of sparkle. 

The last few things from my work is a nail rock glitter thing, that has a polish and a glitter to push into it. Lastly is a NYC glitter top coat in Gramercy Glitz. These also cost £1. 

A random purchase from Boots is the Models Own Matte Topcoat, that cost £5. Another polish I bought from Boots is the Rimmel Salon Pro Kate collection polish in Punk Rock 711. 

From Claire's Accessory I bought a few polishes. These all vary in price, but I got mine from the Claire's discount outlet in Livingston. I got Frost bite, a blue and white glitter strand top coat. School day, a black and white small glitter top coat, Shiver a light blue, white and silver nearly iridescent top coat. I also got Hundreds and Thousands, coral splatter effect and a white neon 
green. These all range from £2.50-£3.50.


Lastly and just the other day, I was browsing in Next, when I came across their own brand nail polish and fell in love instantly. I got 3 glitters, as I seem to be becoming a major magpie. I got one of the " Bling Top Coat" in Golden ticket, which is a clear top coat and has flecks of different coloured gold, from rose gold and yellow golden. I also got a "Holographic Glitter" in Night Fever and a " Matte Glitter" in Pixelated Purple. These cost £3 each and look absolute gorgeous. I can not wait to test these out. 


I will do proper reviews on these in the near future. 

What polishes have you bought recently and any that I should try? 

Until next time
