Holiday Goodies - Airport Shopping :)

I bought so many bits whilst I was away I have decided to split my holiday buys into three seperate posts :) The first one is stuff I got in Newcastle and Larnaca airports, and via my Thomas Cook flights :)

I flew from Newcastle airport - it isn't the biggest airport but its tax/ duty free shopping has recently been expanded - alas still no MAC counter but I did still manage to pick up a few nice bits

First of all I got the new Marc Jacobs fragrance - Lola - I know a few bloggers have got this recently and wow it really is gorgeous - a lovely fragrance with an equally gorgeous bottle - I am such a sucker for packaging






I also picked up one of the YSL Rouge Volupte Lipsticks in 1 - Beige Chrnel - Nude Beige - OMG what can I say about this erm.. worth every penny it is gorgeous - super packaging, a lovely shade and so moisturising all the hype about this formulation is so right !





I also pciked up a bottle of the Estee Lauder Idealist Pore Refinisher - I have used this before and it really improves the clairy of my skin - I have tried the Soap & Glory Fab Pore Mask but it hasn't really done it for me (full review to come) and I know this product works


I also was a bad LouLou and picked up one the traveller exclusive kits by Christian Dior - I was totally sucked in by the amazing packaging and the super smokey glam eye and lip colours - I got the Dior Gaucho Celebration Kit :)




I also picked up a few necklaces from the terminals recently opened Accessorize



To be honest I was much more restrained at Larnaca airport - I only picked up a bottle of my holy grail fragrance Giorgio Armani Acqua Di Gio and a pair of bow earrings



I really wanted the Guerlain Russian Doll eye palette but unfortunately it had sold out :( So instead I treat myself to the Urban Decay Sustainable Shadows kit on my flight - again the packaging is gorgeous





Please check out my You Tube channel if you want to see more on these items and in the meantime I will try and get my other two holiday haul posts on over the weekend xx

Birthday Goodies

Eek as you may know it was my birthday yesterday - eek I officially in my 30's now, not just plain old 30 :( Anyways I got some lovely pressies, so I thought I'd show you some of the best :)

From my mum I got some lovely bits including this gorgeous brass Daisy necklace by Peaches Geldof for Made

Some Marc Jacobs Daisy Blooms perfume which came with the cute stickers (which I have already used ;) ) and a free tote bag :)

A gorgeous OPI gift set :)

This super cute make up palette in luscious greens from By Lauren Luke - Lauren is popular you tube make up guru Panacea81, and she has just launched her own collection. This gorgeous palette contains everything you need to create a full look - eyeshadow, cream liner, blush, lipsticks and eye primer / concealer - the colours are gorgeous and so fresh and spring like -I am especially loving the blush and lip shades


I also got some other fashion and beauty bits including some nude ballet pumps from Primark, a gorgeous crystal anchor t-shirt from Zara and a Body Shop Shimmering Plum gift set (so, so happy about this - why do they always discontinue things I love) :)
