Mini Haul!

Hello! How are you?

I've got a mini haul for you today! I've been reading lots of reviews about the Nip and Fab CC range and I popped in to town on Saturday and couldn't resist buying it as Boots had an offer! I bought the CC Cream and got the CC Eye fix for half price! Barg and a half... review will be coming soon! I also picked up some cute bits from River Island, hope you enjoy :)

Set of three Ear Cuffs - River Island £2

Set of two finger topper rings - River Island £2

Nip and Fab CC Cream in Light - Boots £14.99

Nip and Fab CC Eye Fix - Boots £9 down to £4.50

My student loan came through...

Cheaper rent in my house this year equals more money for shopping! :)

I feel sad not having Westfield Shepherds Bush so close to me anymore as it's my favourite place to fritter away all of my money but I still found some nice bits at Portsmouth high street, so here you go...

First stop Lush!

I bought the Eau Roma Toner water a while ago and reviewed it here and I really liked it but also wanted to give this one a go, so I bought this in the 100g size for £3.95. 

Then the cashier gave me a free sample of their new product Fun. It's literally like play dough that smells nice and apparently you can use it in the bath, in the shower or as shampoo. (or just to act like a child and mould in to different shapes!)

I was also persuaded to add on a pound for this Charity Pot which I couldn't actually open. Then my housemate Gary, determined to open it, dug his key under the lid, which then flew off and covered him in moisturizer. Rather funny to watch and we discovered that it smells like chocolate!

Then I strolled over to Boots and took advantage of their 3 for £10 on haircare deal by getting these three super sized dry shampoos. So I'm prepared for the next year...

I also got some products from the Botanics range. I have read so many good things about these products and they are such good prices so I thought I'd give them a go. The cleansing toner was £2.65 and the face cream was £4.65.

I then had the realization that it's actually getting cold now, so I should probably stop spending all my money on skincare and makeup and actually buy some autumn clothes! I got these two tops from H&M which I love! I wore the grey one (£9.99) yesterday and it's so soft and comfy and I really like the contrast sleeves. I thought the white lacy one (£14.99) would look nice either tucked in to a skirt or with some jeans and heels for a night out look which will keep me a bit warmer!

So that's all for now, I have a few more shopping posts coming up because I have been spending like crazy recently, someone stop me! 

Thanks for reading!

Haul time...

So five years ago yesterday, when we were just teens, my boyfriend said 'Will you be my girlfriend?' and I said 'Yeah alright then'. And to celebrate this occasion we spent the day together in Westfield London, did some shopping, had a nice meal and then got a DVD for the evening (which we didn't realise was actually in Polish with English subtitles, how cultured of us!) My boyfriend very kindly put some money in a card for me and I bought quite a few bits and bobs, and got some good bargs that I will tell you all about here! :)

I have jumped on to the bandwagon and got one of these basket bags from Zara. Not the cheapest bag in the world at £39.99 but I love it, it's really sturdy and big and I will be able to fit all my uni stuff in it come September.

Next up, I bought myself this month's Cosmo, and with it came a very cute little miss guided nail polish in a very pretty hot pink colour! I shall be reading this in a little while with a cup of tea :)

I've been toying with the idea of putting some pink through my hair and when I saw this I had to get it! It's comb in pink rose hair dye which washes out, so perfect for my experimentations! I bought this for £6 Urban Outfitters, but I'm pretty sure they sell this in Topshop too! Can't wait to use it, I shall report back!

Also from Urban Outfitters I got this really pretty sheer polka dot peplum top. It was only £10 down from £35 so let's face it, that's a barg! There was only a Medium left which is a little bit baggy on my but I pulled my waist belt around the middle, just above the peplum bit and it looked great so I had to get it!

This new Benefit foundation, Hello Flawless Oxygen Wow, has been all bloggers everywhere have been talking about and I fancied a piece of the action! I have heard mixed reviews but I think that it probably differs between skin types and for me personally, this sounded like just what I need. The Benefit makeup artist matched me to the shade 'Honey' and I really liked the dewy effect it creates! I am wearing it again today and I'm already falling in love with it!! A full review is on its way once I've tried it out properly.

Now I'm a bit of a chicken when it comes to piercings and tattoos and the like, so any way I can cheat these looks, I will! These Ear cuffs were £6.50 from Topshop, which I thought was actually quite good value considering you get four in a pack! They are so cute and look really nice with hair up or just clipped back!

This beauty was in my Wish list last week and when I saw it in real life in Topshop, I loved it even more! It was £8.50 and I got 10% student discount so only paid £7.65!

When I buy my lunch for work at boots most days, I accumulate lots of No7 vouchers! So I put them to use by buying this Beautiful Skin Eye Makeup Remover which was meant to be £8.50 but with the £5 off I got it for £3.50! Definite barg. I used it last night and it took my eye makeup off really well, so I may do a review on this when I've used it a bit more.

Also with a No7 £5 off voucher I got myself this Concealer brush for £3 down from £8! I am yet to use this so will let you know how it goes!

Also from Boots, I picked up this  Bourjois Nail Polish Remover because I have heard a lot about it on blogs and Youtube and wanted to see how it worked! I took my nail polish off with this last night and really liked it! It's really easy to use and saves a lot of time and cotton pads and was only £4.99!

I ranted and raved about this product in my Tea tree Must haves post and this is the third time I've repurchased this Skin Clearing Lotion from The Body Shop. It's amazing, it does wonders for my skin and I'd really recommend it! But It is £7 for only 50ml and it goes quite quickly!

I've read a lot about Lush's Toner Waters and wanted to try them so I went in store and spoke to the shop assistant who recommended either this Eau Roma Water or the Breath of Fresh Air one for my skin type. I decided to get the smaller bottle of this for £3.75 to see how it went and perhaps when this runs out I'll also try the Breath of Fresh Air!

I also went ahead and got the Comforter Bubble Bar from Lush. I have read lots of good reviews about this product and really wanted to try it and when I smelt it in the shop, my mind was made up! And although it is quite steep at £4.15 it can be broken into 5 pieces for 5 different baths so really that's quite good value for money.

Saving the best barg for last, I went to the models own bottle bar and discovered that they were doing an offer where you could mix and match any 3 nail polishes for £12 and then you also get a free gift! You could choose out of a nail art pen and the bubblegum nail polish and as I already have enough nail art pens I chose the polish! (as if I don't have enough of those too!) So four models own nail polishes for £12 is good going I say!

I also ordered this beautiful Maxi Skirt from Topshop online when I got in, as they didn't have my size in store and I'm soooo excited for it to come! 

That's all for my Haul! (see what I did there!) Hope you enjoyed the read!
