A collective haul!

Over the past few weeks i've been spending as usual and here are some of the bits i've bought all combined into one post.


I bought a very cute bow necklance from River Island that has pastel coloured gems on. River Island is fast becoming one of my favourite places for accessories.

I went into M&S for a chocolate fix and was pleased to find they have a new selection of Hello Kitty chocolate including this very cute tin filled with choc hearts :)


I aslo picked up another of the Estee Lauder lipsticks from the Micheal Korrs Hollywood collection. This one is Hollywood gold. If i was rich i'd buy the whole collection- all of it's beautiful.


I made a small ASOS order- i picked up another of the Daintly Doll eyeshadows. This one is Honey Bronze. The shadows are really smooth,and the colour is a warmer version of Satin Taupe by Mac. I also got a cute Vegas charm necklace which was a bargain at £1.75 in the sale.


And at the weekend i popped into Superdrug. Gosh was on 3 for 2 and they had the new Summer collection in stock. I picked up this eyeshadow palette in Bohemian Gypsy, and a Tropical eye pencil in Violet Queen which has a lovely two tone effect. My favourite of the bunch is the Jumbo Lip Gloss Pencil. They had them in 3 shades, which were all very nice but i opted for Flamenco Coral. I have a feeling i'll be going back for the other 2 though...


Also in Superdrugs skincare is 3 for 2. I took the oportunity to stock up on some Simple products as i seem to be using a lot of their stuff lately. I decided to try the Oil Balancing Moisturiser for the daytime-i though this would be good for the warmer weather. As well as that i chose a Soothing Eye Balm, as i'm obsessed with finding things to help my dreaded dark circles. And lastly an Anti Wrinkle night cream- as i need a new night cream, and i fear wrinkles are aproaching (i can already see one on my forehead...eeek!)


I plan on doing some reviews on some of these things soon-particularly the Gosh bits, but if anyone has any requests they are always welcome.

Another Day, Another Spree...


Sunday night, internet shopping for Christmas presents in my pyjamas, with the fire going and a big mug of coffee. Perfect! And that's what i did last Sunday night. Amongst all the present buying i couldn't help but cheekily add a few things for myself :)

Firstly at ASOS i bought a steamcream in Liberty (£10). In all honesty the thing that made me want to buy this moisturiser was the supercute tins they come in. I had trouble deciding between this one and the lepeord print one. Next i got the Dainty Doll eyeshadow & blush gift set (£12) I've been wanting to try this make up range for a long time. As well as that i got an Anatomicals Snog Me Senseless Minty Lipbalm (£2.50) i love their stuff! And lastly i ordered the Eyeko 3 nailpolish set (£5) which is amazing value considering they are £3 each. In the set is the Vintage Polish, Cosmic Polish, and the Indigo Polish. All lovely.


At the Elf website i bought a cream shadow in Blueberry (1.50) these work well as a cheap eyeshadow base. An Elf Studio Complexion Perfection compact, An Elf Studio Lip stain, a brow treat and tame, and a brow lifter and filler (all £3.50 each). Because i spent over £25 i also got a make up gift set free, which i think will make a nice little Christmas present.

I took a little trip to Suerdrug today, and found out they have a 3 for 2 offer on all their make up. Seeing as Christmas is on its way i thought this was a great oportunity to stock up on plenty of glitter and sparkle! I got:
  • Sleek eye dust in green with envy £2.99
  • Sleek eye dust in inferno £2.99
  • Sleek blush in Pixie Pink £3.29
  • Collection 2000 Glam Crystals eyeliner in gold £2.99
  • Sleek all that glitters pot in Gold £3.99
  • Sleek all that glitters pot in Cranberry £3.99

With a nice saving of £6.28.

The Sleek All That Glitter pots are a new product brought out for Christmas. They are cute little boxed products of a glittery moussey gel that can be used to add glitter to eyes, lips, face etc.. and come in 3 colours- Silver, Gold, and Cramberry. I recommend the Cramberry in particular which is a beautiful hot pink. They are a nice little novelty that would make a good stocking filler.
