A Small Duty Free Haul

 Since I have been inactive making blog posts in over a week, I thought I would show you all what I picked up in duty free when I went on holiday to Barbados. I love airports and one of my favourite things to do is take my time lusting around all the makeup counters in the duty free shopping department. 

I only picked up these two items but will tell you a bit about them and what I think of them so far! 

The first is the Nude Tude Eyeshadow palette from TheBalm I have really been umming and ahhing over buying this palette but when it was only £21 including a free eye shadow primer sample I could not resist it. It has 12 beautiful shades, and what caught my eye was that they were all very different to my usual neutral eye shadow colours, I love that it has a white for highlighting and I am loving the pinky toned shades, I feel like the six left shadows seem to be more daytime shades and the other six on the left are more for night time eyeshadow looks. But I will be creating different eye shadow looks and putting this to the test. But so far I love it, have used it a few times already!

My Rimmel London Kate Moss Lipsticks and Thoughts



Rimmel Lipsticks are always ones I reach for on a regular basis, there are so many shades, and choices of colours in the Rimmel stands in Boots and Superdrug and these are all shades I have gravitated towards so I thought I would do a blog post about them and maybe tempt a few of you to try them out too!

My Favourite Body Mists/Sprays for Summer -For under £10

1. Avon Sunshine Kiss Eau De Toilette
The first one I am going to mention is this lovely Avon spray which reminds me of sunshine and the beach it smells really fresh and fruity but I can't work out what fruit smells like. It is great as it lasts ages on my skin, longer than the other two body mists, and it is a happy scent, the smell makes me happy, mainly because it smells like summer to me and I always get asked what perfume it is, I only need to spray it twice and the scent lasts all day, which I love! It is usually £10.50 but I always find it's on offer so it's technically still under £10 right?!


2.Soap and Glory Mist you Madly
Ahh I just love this spray! As a Soap and Glory Obsessed girlie I have tried a lot of there products but this is in my top 5, it is also a perfect travel size, (they also do a larger bottle) although I can go through it very quickly if I don't stop myself! I find I can usually only smell it for a while and then I can't smell it and just keep spraying it on haha! This is described as 'floral and flirty' and I do agree with that claim it does smell 'flirty' I can't explain it very well so if you like the sound of it so far I suggest you to go to your nearest Boots store if you're from the UK, and test it out! It also reminds me of high school/secondary school, because me and my group of friends adored this scent it was like our signature perfume/mist we all had in our school bags, I think this is also why I love it because it's nice to reminisce about my high school days and the friendships I made back then. This usually retails for around £4, and it is perfect for popping in my bag an everyday essential.


3. The Body Shop Vanilla Body Mist
Lastly the third out of my three favourite body mists/sprays for Summer is this vanilla Spray from the body shop. This one is around £7 and I decided to try this after using a Natural collection vanilla body mist as I wanted something that would be long wearing but also the bottle would last me a while too, so I wouldn't have to keep repurchasing it as often as that teeny tiny vanilla spray from natural collection. It is more like a perfume I would say which is good meaning is lasts a lot longer than the others I had tried from other shops. The last bottle I had of this lasted a long time for me even with frequent use of the spray, and I recently purchased this new one around a month ago and have been using it almost every day. So it's good value for money.

Review of the Makeup Revolution Iconic 3 Palette

Today's post is all about a palette I have been loving from Superdrug which comes to the total of £4! Yeah, you heard that right! 

I have always loved my Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette but when they bought out the Naked 3 which is all pinkish toned eye shadows I was a bit dubious to try it after never venturing out into trying pinky colours on my eyes, as I had always stuck to neutral colours as I thought they looked really elegant on my blue eyes, and I wasn't sure if pinks would suit me. but this little £4 palette has changed my mind!


Variety of shades: This palette offers 12 beautiful pinky coppery colours but has two or three darker purple-y-taupe shades, There are a mixture of shimmery glittery colours and mattes so you have everything you need in one palette to make lots of different pinky eye shadow looks anywhere you like!

How I Remove My Makeup And The Products I Use


So here comes a post about my makeup removing routine, I basically use these three products to remove my makeup. They are what I find works best for me and my skin which is combination, but can be quite sensitive to some products but I thought this would be interesting as everyone's makeup removing method is different!
