Recent makeup buys

Hello everyone,

I have a beauty haul for you today, I thought I would some of the bits I have been picking up recently considering I haven't done a haul in ages! I have been buying a lot lately, especially clothing pieces but I may share that with you another time!

The first and the most exciting thing I have picked up is the Sleek Cream Contour Kit in light, yes you read that right! Their are now cream contour kit that are comparable to the ABH one, this was £10.99 and I am just so excited to use it! Hopefully I can get some nice contouring and highlighting going on, especially with the 6 different shades! I have read a couple of review about this and they all seem positive so far! (£10.99 - link)

My friend and I were both trying to decide the best way to applying this contour kit, then we came across this foundation and concealer brush from Primark, we thought we'd give it a go as it looks like the perfect shape for getting a good contour and highlight. This brush is only £1.50 so if it's rubbish it's not big loss! The the second brush I have been dying to true is the Real Techniques setting brush, as this is going to be great for a whole host of things from powder to potentially concealer and more!(£1.50 & £6.99 - link)

I have wanted to try this foundation for ages now as everyone seems to go on about this! I have gone to Estee Lauder counters to get testers and colour matched, and on pay day I said f**k it and just brought it! I got the shade 1CO Shell, and is a perfect match! I have to say getting new high end foundations is the best, but even foundations in general for that matter! The best thing about this foundation is the range of shades, but the fact that this is meant to be more or less suitable for everyone! (£30.00 - link)

Lately I have been getting real paranoid over my pores, blackheads and just skin in general. I have seen lots of reviews on the blackhead charcoal masks, so I decided while boots were having a 3 for 2, that I would pick this up to begin with which is the Boots tea tree witch hazel 2 step nose pore strips,! I am so excited to try this as it's got two different steps which are meant to help with blackhead and pores, so hopefully this works! (£5.99 - link)

The last two things that I got from the 3 for 2, is the Tea Tree witch hazel nose pore strips, this is that I wanted from boots before I got sucked into the deals. I have had these before and were good, but I need to try it again for my overall opinion. Lastly I got the Tea tree witch hazel charcoal facial mask, as I am hoping this is going to benefit my skin overall, but we shall see how I get on! (£4.99 & £3.59 - link and link)

Bedside Table Skin Care

Hello everyone,

Lately I have been sorting out my bedside table skin care routine, I have recently organised my skin care and I am very happy with the storage I have used.

This is an over view of the box, the box is from Primark and it cost £5, but when I got to the check out it was £1.50. This box is perfect for storing little things like skin care, just because it's sectioned and big enough.

In the big section on the left, and here I have the bigger bottles. I have a Skin Therapy moisturiser for oily and combination skin; this is from Wilkinsons, I use this moisturiser in the morning, before I put my makeup on. Next to that I have some E45, because I have been getting some dry patches on my face because of the weather. Then I also have this new serum I picked up yesterday, called FaceB4 After Cleansing Serum. Then my holy grail product, the La Roche Posay Effacer Duo which is the best thing if you have break outs! 

Onto the top section, here I just have the Lush Grease Lightning, which is a stop treatment. And my other favourite moisturiser which is the Ren Daily Supplement moisturiser, followed by a hair band.

The lastly I have a benefit it's potent eye cream which is amazing for night and day time under your make up, it also very moisturising! Then I have two lip balms one is a Balmi, which is put on a night because it's very smooth but moisturising at the same time. Then my day time lip balm is the Nuxe Reve De Miel, which is a wonderful lip balm for the price (£9.50), and finally I have a body shop Cranberry Bliss hand cream!

I hope you have had a brilliant week, and next week is even better!

Haul// Stationery, Beauty, Room Decor and more

Hello everyone,

I have a haul for you, I was going to split this into separate different ones but thought I would put it all in one to save time. I have some things from a bit of everywhere it feels, enjoy!

The first things are from Tesco, I brought some more notebooks because they were £1.50 for a pack of two (pink and blue). I brought three packets because I thought I could have one for all of my lessons, to write down revision etc. Then I also got a back of the Bic Ball Point Crystal pens (A.K.A My favourites), these came with blue, black, red and green and were quite cheap.

I also got these pencil from Tesco, they came in a pack of 3, I thought they looked quite nice and I need pencil all the time because I feel they always break, I lose then or people borrow them but never return them, so their back ups basically. Then if you didn't know I love Paperchase and I found this notebook and I fell in love with it, it was £3 but I love that it's not a big one, with the spiral back.

Flash cards are amazing when revising, I swear by them all the time and I picked up three packets from WHSmiths, the blue ones are a variety pack of four colours. Then moving on I brought this clear pouch from Paperchase and I just have some page markers from WHSmiths and this 4 colour pen from Rymans. This is a revision folder necessities, I also have a few revision cards in here. 

I brought two binders from Paperchase, I thought this would be good to keep revision notes and things in. The one of the left is so cute, I love the colours and patters this was £3. The the one of the right is a fabric material binder this was £4, also these binders are the smaller ones.

I love cushions for my bed, I went into Primark expecting to fall in love with all of them but, surprisingly they didn't have too many I loved. But the one on the left is a stunning white one with a crochet over lay. Then the one on the right is a Paris cushion a lovely grey colour. The white one was £5 and the Paris one was £4.

I think I mentioned in my latest wishlist that I wanted the Bourjois Happy Light primer, and I decided to give it a go but I brought the matte one, this was around £10. Also when I was in Superdrug I brought a new toner, I went for the Garnier Pure Active Pore Purifying toner because my Nars one is running very low. Then another cushion... I brought this from Next to choice because it was only £2.99 RRP was £7.99, this just has a painting type design saying 'All Shopped Out!' I wanted this because her shoes look like they have red soles ;)

I poped into Poundland for some reason, but I brought some 14 clear pockets for Binders. Then I picked up two deodorants one is the Garnier Mineral invisicool and the other is the invisicalm for after shaving. 

I was in Rymans and saw these Sharpies for only £9.99, when they are £20, but in WHSmiths these are £6.99 so go to WHSmiths. But I love these for revision and they are so good, and so is this pack. Moving on I went into Homebase and fell in love with this lamp, I have this on my bedside table and I just love how different it looks, it reminds me of lego? but this was only about £10 I think, they also have white, purple and pink.

And back on to stationary, this is the last I promise! I brought these binder separators from WHSmiths because they are so cute, and they are plastic! Then I got these envelope type binder inserts, they were a pack of 5 and are great for loose papers and flash cards.

My bedroom is Paris/floral themed, and I found another Paris Canvas from Dunelm Mill this was £12 and I love it, this looks stunning and the Eiffel Tower is actual glitter and it looks amazing. The I was in Tesco today and was browsing the clearance section and found these pack of 3 canvass for only £2.50! They are so cute and I love the pastal colours!

That is everything I have brought over this weekend, it's quite a lot but oh wells! What have you brought recently? Comment below
