A Large Metro Centre Haul

Well yesterday I went shopping with my mum - why is that so exciting well it was for me - it was the first time in over two years that me and my mum managed to walk around the Metro Centre together - previously my mum was on her mobility scooter. We were only there for a few hours but I am paying the price today I hurt like hell, and my feet have some evil blisters. Still we had a good time, real quality mum and daughter time - we looked at clothes, and had drinkies in Starbucks, and we spent lots of money, my mum bought me things, I bought her things, and we bought ourselves things - needless to say bye bye spending diet after erm 4 days never mind it was worth it x
First of all beauty goodies - I've made a couple of You Tube videos showing my goodies if you want to hear a bit more so don't forget to check out my channel (click here)
So first of all a Superdrug haul :)

L'Oreal Matte Morphose Foundation, I am going to do a full review on this soon but I've bought some more so...., some MUA pressed powder £1 eek don't know what this will be like but I hadn't seen it online and I haven't wasted must if it's awful, another MUA eyeshadow in 11, a shimmery dark greige/taupe, a Me Me Me Cheek E Blusher Pot in 4 Brown E this wasn't originally for me but it had a finger print in it eww so I've sanitised it and kept it I already have the peach and these are really nice, a Famous By Sue Moxley eyeshadow in 2 a silvery, beige - I haven't tried this brand before but I've heard good things and it feels lovely, and just for the fun value a Rimmel Fruities Lasting Finish Nail Polish in 053 Apricot Punch can't wait to see what it smells like. I've also included a pic here of a Barry M freebie I got from Boots a limited edition nail polish - I didn't buy the Barry M for me but I'm keeping the freebie sorry Michelle ;)

I also got a couple of bits from the Good Things skincare line to try - I've heard so many good things (tee hee) about the line so far - I picked up the Good Things Stay Clear Purifying Cleanser and the Good Things Five Minute Facial Mask - I haven't used any of these yet but I have had a sniff and wow they smell so yummy

Something else which smells yummy is some of the Body Shop goodies I also got - I picked up to bits from the new Rainforest hair collection including the Rainforest Radiance Shampoo for coloured hair - wow this contains bilberry and you can tell it smells really edible (I was a child brought up on my grans bilberry pie) It was buy one get one half price on the new range so I also got the thing I really wanted to try and that is the Hair Butter - this doesn't smell as great to me I can really smell the honey eek. I also got some Sweet Lemon Whip Body Lotion yummy, and some more Soft Hands, Kind Hearts Hand Cream, oh and another facial buffer

My final beauty bits came from Primark - Primark I here you cry well Metro Centre has never really stocked much of the beauty stuff but they had a new stand yesterday and I got a blusher in a lovely peach / coral which was £1 - it seems ok so far but we'll see and I got the 9 1/2 Winks Mascara.

Ok onto clothes and accessories I hope you aren't bored yet ;) First of all I got lots of jewellery bits including some earrings from Primark and Superdrug, some faux pearl bracelets and a cute ring

My shopping bags also contained a couple of bits for my holidays including this cute corsage hair band from Primark and this H! By Henry Holland Ipod / Media Case from Debenhams

and the biggie - I really want a Mulberry Alexa but alas at the moment it is way out of my price range so I've been looking at the copies - there are a few out there Oasis, New Look, and allegedly Peacocks, but I liked this one from Next best IRL - I got the tan and it was £30 - love it

So there you have it a huge haul - if you want any swatches, review or better pics of anything let me know xxx
