Collective Hauling

Hi Guys
Just for a change it's time for a haul :) I have to say despite the initial wobbles at the start of the month I've actually managed to reign myself in a bit , still I have made a few purchases over the last two weeks so I thought I'd show you some of them :)

First up an ebay bargain :) I love the Dove Summer Glow Facial Moisturiser but when I went to try and repurchase it recently I was told it had been discontinued - boo :( It give a really nice gradual tan and it had a gorgeous smell so I headed to ebay where I found and absolute bargain - 5 full sized bottles for just £4.00 - result !

I also ventured into new territory for me and purchased a BB cream

I love the idea of these and really wanted to try them, so after reading a post from the lovely Charlotte from Lipglossiping I bought the Missha M Perfect Cover BB Cream in No 21

This is actually a pretty good match for my skin normally but as I'm faux glowing at the minute it's a bit light

I can't wait for the winter months to try this out properly but in the time I might pick up the new Garnier BB cream in the medium shade, we'll see how the budget goes ;)

Yesterday me and my mum went for a drive and ended up in Barnard Castle, we recently visited The Bowes Museum (see my post here) and we ended up buying 6 monthly memberships so we could go anytime wanted so yesterday we went to see the new Egyptian exhibit, and we had a lovely drive back through Weardale, Teesdale and Hamsterly Forest - one of the reasons I love living where I do is that within 20 - 30 minutes we can been in the middle of gorgeous moorland and open space or on beautiful beaches. Anyways enough of the rambling I ended up buying a few bits first of all in Superdrug.

I bought three lip colours from the Collection 2000 Cream Puff range. These have a super soft velvety feel on the lips and are actually matte lip creams as opposed to an actual lipgloss. From left to right Powder Puff 2, Cotton Candy 1, and Fairy Cake 3

I also bought another Collection 2000 lip product, yes I bought 4 lip products on one day, in my defence there was an offer where you could buy any 2, £2.99 Collection 2000 products for £4.00, so it would have been wrong not to ;) So I also picked up one of the Lock N Hold Lipglosses in Body Pop 1, a gorgeous candy pink

I also got a couple of nail polishes MUA No 16 a gorgeous bright pink

and the Beauty UK Gold shatter polish :)

I also picked a few other things including some nail polish remover pads, and the St Moriz Tanning Lotion

So that was a bit of hauling over the last week and a bit bad girl that I am, still I am going to try and recoup some of my hauling with some more ebay listings, I am being so strong it's untrue I have some fab stuff to list including some Marc by Marc Jacobs, some Miu Miu and more - keep checking my sidebar for updates. Any questions please ask xx

Mini Spree

I managed to go for a little look out today so I decided to play hunt the St Moriz fake tan. This fake tan is gaining a cult status and has featured on numerous blogs and you tube videos. At only £2.99 for a 200ml bottle this product is not only a bargain but it is supposedly as good as, if not better than the St Tropez mousse - my HG fake tan! First of all I tried Home Bargains but all there was, was a huge space where it should have been:( I then remembered I had read somewhere that Boyes stores also stocked it - I wasn't disappointed they had a shelf full of it - so I nabbed 4 bottles - it may sound a bit excessive but if its as good as everyone says I'll want more ;)I'll let you know what I think either way

I also went to Superdrug and bought myself a few bits

Max Factor False Lash Waterproof Mascara - I have wanted to try this for ages and I need a waterproof mascara

Max Factor Colour Perfection Eyeshadow Duo- 455 Sparkling Sirus - a gorgeous dark blue and a silvery grey



and because I had spend more than £12 on Max Factor I got a free Max Factor Golden Summer Palette - this super cute palette with a mirror and a 2 in 1 applicator, includes 2 creamy blushes (which can be used on the lips) in Soft Murano, and Soft Copper, and 4 mini eyeshadows in Burnt Bark, Inca Bronze, Pale Pebble and Dawning Gold - what I love about all these items is that they all have there own little lids and can be removed from the palette for real portability - I love a good freebie :)

I also got Barry M lip paint in 101 Marshmellow

Some more nail polish remover pads and some moisturising gloves

and some super cute butterfly earrings


Oh and more good new I also won an ELF studio product via Twitter i can't wait for it to come :)
