Failure In February

Well it's over the shortest month of the year is thankfully at its end although that didn't stop my placing an order on the last day of the month at cosmetics-skincare thanks Nooberella ;) (a review of my shopping experience and haul posts to come) - Phew my spending diet as you can see this month has been a total an utter failure - I stopped counting at £96.52 - argh! I think that once I knew I had gone over my limit by even just a little bit that was it - I felt as if I had a justification to spend more - I am feeling beyond bad about it but I can't change what happened - all I can do is try to do better next month - As you know my mum is going into hospital for an operation on 6th March - eek I know I am going to be stressed so I am going to have to be super strong and try not to spend any money - I want a few bits next month so I am going to have to just stick to those - as per usual MAC are releasing about a billion collections next month but my mum has already said she will buy me something to cheer me up while she is away - guess what I want like I acutally need more MAC ;) I am so amazed by her everyday she is so generous and is an amazing person I really would be lost without her
Well trimming my stash I have done pretty well this month although with it being a shorter month my total is a bit lower - but I still managed 16 items

Clinique Sparkle Skin Body Exfoliator 200ml
2true Instant Length Mascara - 1 Black - 7ml
The Body Shop Cranberry Bubble Bath 400ml
Nivea Deodorant - Pearl Beauty 35ml
Maybelline Watershine Diamonds Lipstick 103 Beige Shimmer
Boots Botanics Quick Fix Cleansing Wipes
Lush Cupcake Face Mask 75g
Liz Earle Cleanse + Polish 100ml
The Body Shop Divide and Multiply Mascara 5ml
Tommy Guns Blueberry and Ginseng Shampoo 250ml

I think I did pretty well here I finished 3 make up products including two old mascaras although admittedly the lipstick was thrown away because it had gone off - yuck -yuck - I already have a few bits I know I'll finish next month so I am thinking positively that I will do better on all fronts next month - I sound like I'm repeating myself again but wish me luck - again xx

  1. hey dude, thanks for the mention!
    just to let u know ive had a few concerns raised as to wether the stock is genuine =0/ ive messaged the owner and told her this, and said i will report her to trading standards etc. so be careful! i hope you paid by paypal, its easier to claim your money back if it all goes tits up! xxxx

  2. Oh right thanks for letting my know yes I paid via paypal - to be fair I have seen similar items on reliable discount sites all be it for a few pounds more so I'll wait and see - I have bough so many fakes from ebay in the past I think I'm pretty good at recognising them now lol
