Superdrug Haul

Hey all

So today i went into Superdrug just to get a few things, but when i saw these i thought oh they might be good and decided to buy them they was on offer so yay!!!!

The coco butter lip balm i actually needed to get as recently my lips have been really sore and red and this seems to be the only thing that will make it better, also i was looking for a new eye cream as the ones i have are making my eyes quite sore so i saw the simple eye cream and thought i would try that

This face mask and 2 in 1 moisture and serum i wasn't going to get but well to be honest they was on offer so i thought i would try them.

 

this is what they look like as you can see the serum is clear which i quite like but there is a scent to it which i am not very good at explaining scents or smells, but it sort of smells like a natural scents like outdoorsy trees sort of scent which is really nice i like it anyway, it left my hand feeling very smooth and it has lasted throughout the evening, also when i applied it to my hand it had a cooling effect to it which i found strange at first but then it went away, The face mask has a muddy scent to it which again i like, i must be coming across very wired lol but i like things like that. 


 I have to say the coco butter lip blame is in a bit of a strange shape but hey its only going on my lips, The eye cream went on really smoothly and it also had a cooling effect to it which i really like.

I will be using all these products tonight as I'm going to have a pamper night :-)

hope you all enjoyed this

take care

A relaxing sunday

Hey all 

How has your sunday been?? and what have you been up to??

Well today i had quite a chilled out day my mom and i went to our local park which has a little farm on there so we saw all kind of animals, well to be honest i was asked to go to a car with my partner today but because I'm working from 7am to 9.30pm on monday thought it was best for me to stay at home and just relax and rest but because the sun was shining today i fanced a nice walk somewhere so as i say we went to my local park where i took pics and really just enjoyed the sunshine.

Well afterward we went into Tesco as my shoes was hurting my feet :-( (they rubbed my heals) and i knew i needed some comfortable shoes now that the summer is coming and i found these (my mom has some of the £13 pair) 

the first pair was £8 and the second pair were £13

With my job I'm on my feet all the time and i just need a good pair of shoes just to last me really.

Also while in there i picked up this 
i dont normal buy magazines but when i saw zoella on the front i thought ill have this, a free mascara came with it and also inside the book was fee sample of  "Rimmel london BB Ceam MATTE"

so yea that was my day i hope you all had a lovely sunday and ill blog soon

take care

Tiny Haul :-)

Hey all

Well i done a tiny bit of shopping the other day with my mom and i wanted to share what i got with you all.


As you can see i bought these lovely items!!
i haven't taken a photo of the brow palette as mom decide to try when we got home which i didn't know she had done so I'm sorry about that but i thought i wouldn't be very nice to share with you a product that had been used 

 The MUA Pro-Brow palette and blush is from Superdrug the brow palette was £3.50
and the blusher was only £1


you can get the blusher here and you can also get the brow palette from there too, the blush is really pigmented and to be honest is worth £1 you have to use it with a very light hand and also try to apply it in natural daylight as i applied it in my light up mirror and oh my god i looked a bit like a clown :-(
its has a very sheer finish to it but i actually like that, as you all know i love natural makeup which is why i love this.

The brow palette also is very very good there is 3 shades in it Brown, light brown and then a highlight shade and the some clear wax which i don't use i don't like that as i think it makes your eyebrows painted on which does not look natural, i use the brown colour which is my perfect shade for me (YAY AT LAST)!!!!!!! i only apply it again with a light hand as i want to look a natural as possible.

all in all i have to say they are really worth the money and i may be tempted to buy some more blushers but we shall see.

Hope you are all well 

blog soon

take care

New year resolutions

Hi there

happy new year to all of you, i hope you all had a lovely a christmas and a happy new year, Did you have everything that you asked for off santa? lol i did and i was even surprised by what my partner had got me (thank you matt), anyway i just wanted to post a blog post about my new year resolutions as i always find it very interesting finding our what other people have in mind for theirs.

Here is my resolutions:


  1.  Get my driving done so i don't have to rely on my partner to take me places, i have been learning to drive for the past 3/4 years and i have failed my theory test twice :-( not fun but I'm very determined to get it all passed this year.
  2. Drink more herbal tea as I'm always drinking coke cola, it not doing me any good so yea.
  3. To find a healthy diet for me as i suffer from IBS and i can tell you this, this last week i have not been feeling well at all and i think its due to my IBS and eating/drink lost of crap food.
  4. To save money, i will try my hardest to do this as i really want to save my money so i can get a house with my partner its been long over due :-(
  5. To do more blogging, i know i have been absent lately but i have had things going on and i found it impossible to actually sit in front of my pc and type but this is a new year and a (hopefully) new me!!!!!
So there it is my new year resolutions do you all think i will stick to it???

Well i can but try my hardest.

Take care

NXY Pallet

Hey all and happy new year to all of you.

I'm really sorry i have been absent lately there has been a lot of things going on in my life but anyway I'm not here to talk about that, A few year ago i was on holiday in Cornwall and i popped in to tkmaxx where i saw this!!!!

The whole pallet was £15 which i thought was quite reasonable as the normal price is £32 see here, with all of the products the pigments are amazing, the eyeshadow, blush, bronzer etc you have to be light handed, but i have to be honest I'm not so keen on the lipsticks in the pallet maybe its just me but everything else i love, this would be the perfect present for someone who is starting out in makeup.



 I hope this has helped you.

Take care

Poundland Bargins

Hey all

well recently i went into my local poundland shop and as you do you look around and this is what i find.

Nail polish!!!!!! in poundland!!!! well i was even shocked when i saw theses, they are from a brand called jess which i actually looked on the Internet and i could not find so maybe its the pound land brand i don't know but any who these nail polish has some really nice shades and i mean really nice not only they have glittery ones like above but they have your regular kind ones as well which i didn't get but i mite ;-) 

from left to right
 As you can see this one has all different coloured glitter in there and to be honest it reminds of Christmas because of the colours whats in there.
 With this one it has more of a goldie purple side to it but when you wear it on your nails it shows through and its so cool to see that in a nail polish.
 With this one as you can see its just red glitter which is perfect for the party/ Christmas season.
 And lastly this 1 is lovely on top of a plain pink polish yes it pink glitter but if you look closely there is different colours of glitter in there also.

I have to say i tested the all that jazz polish the day i got it and for a £1 it pretty good in my books, bare in mind i didn't use a top coat after it which really i should of done as it lasted only 2 days with out is and that's with 2 coats on yes it chipped easily but you know what i am not complaining for £1, so all in all good price, good colours, good quality (with topcoat) all i can say is bargain.

Hope you all had fun reading this

take care
