Drugstore Makeup Haul


Let me start by saying... yes I am aware this is another haul post!
I have received so many lovely things for my birthday which have been as will be included in a few more hauls or 'products I'm trying' or somewhat like that blog posts in the near future! 

So sorry if you don't enjoy hauls but it's all makeup and all stuff I'm super excited to use so as soon as I get it it *needs* to be photographed before I can use it definitely blogger problems! But I don't care I just can't wait to try all my new makeup products featured in this post so Enjoy!

So these are the three palettes I bought with birthday money, and I'm loving them all! 
The first was the sleek blush by three palette which has three lovely shades, also the palette is called 'sugar' but online it is 'brown sugar' before I forget to mention that! the shades are called: Left - Demerara, Middle - Muscovado, Right - Turbinado. they are all super lovely shades and I was so drawn to this palette as I haven't tried any of the blush palettes and at this time sleek was on 2 for £10 so will mention the other product in a mo! but My favourite shade has to be the middle shade 'Muscovado' it is just such a beautiful colour and has tiny little shimmers but they don't make me look like a glitter ball! *yay haha* but then close second is the fist shade which is like a dark cranberry shade, it looks so scary but it is super pretty and I am gonna love using it this winter! 

The Second product is the sleek palette on the right. It is a contour kit which has a contour powder(as you'd expect) and a beautiful shimmery highlighter. Now I already had this but in the more expensive one which included a blush, I never really used the blush - partly because I smashed it on a solid flood which smashed it to smithereens! And then this broke the packaging, now I won't be doing that with these! but I'm so clumsy haha so I won't be surprised if I do! Now this one (shade-light, btw) was in the sleek offer so both together came to £10 which I was so happy with as the last product retails for £9.99 on it's own, BARGAIN! The contour shade is perfect for my skin tone and I love the highlighter too so it's a perfect mini makeup compact! This one retails for £4.49!

The Last product is the Makeup revolution ultra sculpt and contour palette, which is £3.50 so for that price I wanted to give it a go! It has a contour shade, highlighter and pinky blush shade. I'm in the shade 'Ultra Fair' and It's lovely for the price I am amazed! The only downside is they are all very powdery so it gets everywhere haha! But I love it anyway for the price I am in love! All of them are wearable shades and look very pretty on the skin.

The Body Shop: Sale Haul


I thought today would be the perfect time to take a snap of my body shop sale haul on my new Canon eos 700D! So that's just what I did for you all, let me start off by saying I am officially broke as I have now invested in this camera which I have been saving months and months for so most of my blog posts for a while will be featuring a lot of new makeup products and body care bits I got for my birthday which was on October 24th! So quite a while ago now, haha!

Let me start by telling you all what my body shop haul actually came too: It came to the bargain price of £19.70! And this haul is not including two of the body shop's lipsticks that were included in that price and that I'm featuring in a new blog post later this month! So stay tuned for that!

So the Body shop had a sale on just before my birthday about a week before and I decided to order a few bits but that turned in to quite a few more than I originally thought I would, impulse buying at it's best, at least it was in the sale! I also had found a discount code on the website for 40% off so this was why I got such a big haul for the price of under £20 I was very impressed!

So I ended up buying two body butters in 50ml each, and one lip balm in the honey scent (the blueberry one was given to me for my birthday, so is the only thing not included in the price) a virgin mojito body scrub which smells absolutely delish!! which was on my want list for agesss so I was SO happy getting this for around £3-4 I think if I remember correctly! and then I also bought a honeymania shower gel which smells amaze-ing and I can't wait to smell like a honey bee! ironic as I hate bees.  Lastly I picked up this cute cherry blossom duo-which includes the little travel spray and a little body lotion miniature, after I bought this for a friend for her birthday I wanted it for myself... but were all guilty off this right?! So I saw it online and decided I needed it too, so now me and my friend are twinning! I will link all of the products I can find that are featured in this post below but some may not be online anymore as they were most probably sale items only.

So the only products I've tried are the blueberry lip balm my best friend got me along with lots of other lovely presents, and I love it so much it has the nicest blueberry scent and actually smells like blue berries and doesn't smell artificial at all and that's why I love the body shop products it also is lovely and moisturising.

The other product I have tried so far is the Smoky Poppy body butter and this is such a nice scent it smells nice and isn't too much but I really like the smell and I use it to moisturise my arms and legs and it seems to make the skin less flaky, which is something I suffer with in the colder months sadly, so it has been a lovely product to use and I can't wait to use the coconut scented one too.
