Holiday Goodies Part 3 - Jewellery

I also managed to pick up a few bits of fashion jewellery whilst I was away - loads of the shops had a half price sale on and I even managed to score some free earrings - first of all I majorly added to operation earring love :)








2 free pairs of earrings :)



Bracelets :)






Necklaces :)



well as you can see I had loads of fun :)I still have a few bits that I got before and after my hols to post but I'll try and do that this week

Holiday Goodie Part 2 - Cosmetics

I know I but a few cosmetics bits in the airport but one of my faviourite thing to do when I am away is to scrat round local drugstores to see what local brands are on offer - Cyprus was no exception - things like L'oreal and Maybelline were available but very expensive but I managed to find a few brands I hadn't heard of that I was really impressed with - I found just a general pharmacy in the resort but omg how much make up etc. did they sell, nail art, amazing lashes so it would have been wrong not to pick up a few bits :)


First of all I got these a set of three nail art pens - alas the green one exploded a bit - you get the idea a strong smell of polish when you open your case thankfully they were sealed so nothing was damaged. They have a nib and a fine brush for detailed work - I used to love my nail art :)



I also noticed a lovely packaged eye shadow by a company calle Sivanna - which is a gorgeous silver, white, beige shade - It was only 3 Euros and it is so velvety soft.



I also picked up yet another gorgeously packaged and patterned pink, lilac shadow by a company callesd fashione which was only 2 Euros


and I also picked up this fab blue / gold marbled shadow by a comapny called Ludanmei Cosmetics which is sooo pretty

There was also another pharmacist in the resort and they stocked a gorgeous line by a company called ERRE DUE - OMG I am so impressed with this brand



I got two wet and dry sparkly eyeshadows in 412 green and 414 dark blue OMG - they are soooo pigmented and so soft - I really love these shadows - they also had a gorgeous gold/green which unfortunately was sold out :(




I also picked up one of their automatic liners in 08 and olivey green which again is so soft, really pigmented and waterproof



and I also picked up one of their nail polishes in 89 in a gorgeous metallic blue


and I also picked up an olive oil Jasmine soap - I got one last year and it was so moisturising


Any questions please ask - I'll hopefully be back later with a jewellery haul x

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

Hey You + September Round Up

Hiyas - long time no speak to :) Alas the hotels Internet access was too expensive and my phone signal was non existent so apologies for the lack of updates but I am back from a gorgeous holiday in Cyprus - the weather was amazing but I got a stinky , nasty cold which I am still battling off. Anyways I have loads to catch up on - I've got a few videos to edit up and stick on You Tube and loads of holiday purchases to update you on and a few bits I've picked up since I've got home :),as well as trying to catch up with You Tube videos and blog posts so apologies in advance if I don't comment on any posts - you have been busy bees while I have been away. All of this will still probably be done without my laptop much to my irritation it is still MIA
:( Anyways to sum September up I have had a fab time buying what I've wanted for a change but this has to end - I have saved some of my holiday money for some bits from the new MAC collections but apart from that I am back to my £30 a month limit from today:)
I also persevering with trimming my stash - September wasn't the best of months - I only managed to finish 11 full sized items although I haven't counted the multitude of travel sized and mini items I finished whilst I was away

Pro Strong Pro Advanced Fluoride Nail Strengthener
Avon Bronze Sun Protection Sensitive UVA / UVB 15 Sun Lotion Spray
Avon Planet Spa Detoxifying and Firming Body Mask
Avon Planet Spa Hawaiian Thermal Volcano Paraffin Hand and Foot Treatment
The Body Shop Ginger Body Scrub
The Body Shop Peach Shower Gel
The Body Shop Strawberry Body Butter
ELF Studio Make Up Remover Wipes
The Body Shop Seaweed Clarifying Toner
Lush Jasmine Henna Fluff-Eaze
Nivea Compact Deodorant

On the plus side I have hit pan on a couple of bits in September, and a couple of bits should be finished in the next week or so - I can definitely see an improvement in my bath and body stash :)

Anyways bear with me for a few days and I'll try and get caught up on my posts - including a huge thank you to the fabulous Sara for my swap package. and thanks to the lovely Kate for a gorgeous thank you post :)

It's Holiday Time

Just a quick post to remind you that I am going on holiday for a week and a bit tomorrow - I am going here I can't wait sunshine!!! it is so miserable here today. I am probably not going to be able to post while I am a way due to the lack of laptop - the hotel does have an Internet cafe but I may have better things to spend my money on ;)Anyways I'll be back after my hols with loads more posts - I need to catch up on so many things I've promised to do - First thing though will be a post on my swap with Sara which I received this morning - huge, huge thank you honey - I can't wait to have a proper play when I get back from my hols :)
See You Soon xx
