Little Haul

Since I've been home I've collected a few bits and pieces in terms of skincare, haircare and cosmetics. Nothing big and most of it picked up from offers, but everyone loves a good deal so I thought I'd share :)

For skincare I thought I'd experiment for the first time in about two years and try some new moisturisers, including a night cream!  I'm also going to get a new cleanser and change my skincare completely as sometimes my skin can look a little dull.

Before now I've been lazy and haven't really used one unless my skin needed extra help, but I've heard that it massively helps reduce future aging and I found one - Garnier Youthful Radiance Night cream - that does fight the signs of aging, but isn't too thick for my young skin as it is intended for people starting the fight against aging early! It was reduced in Morrisons UK for £6 and I've been using it for about a week now, and   I started getting compliments on my complexion pretty quickly! Someone didn't believe I wasn't wearing makeup - granted this was a clueless boy. However, my skin feels a lot more oily so I'll have to see how it goes!
I also picked out this Loreal Triple Active Day Light Moisturiser, which I only got today. It's specified towards dry and sensitive skin, but it's very perfumed so I'm going to be very cautious about it. Although it smells nice I just have super delicate skin.

I also picked up these three Frizz-Ease products for £10 at ASDA, a deal I really recommend having a look at. I got the 3 Day Straight Spray, the Hair Serum, and Shine Spray. These normally retail for £6.99, £6.29, and £5.59 so I made a saving of £8.87!! :D I'm excited to use all of these products!

 I also recently started using Rimmel Wake Me Up foundation and so far I really like it. My Loreal Dream Lumi concealer ran out so I replaced it with this Maybelline alternative which I've seen used by a lot of people; however I still prefer the Loreal version - it's a bit creamier with nicer and easier to use packaging. Sometimes this gives out too much in one go.

 And my favourite new thing was a present from my mummy, because Debenhams is her favourite shop. She doesn't usually buy me things, but she's 150% more likely to if it's from Debenhams.

So pretty... I like the stripes because it makes a traditional design a bit fresher and more summery :) It was in the sale from £35 to £25, plus there was a teeny stain on the back which meant we got an extra 10% off, and my mum had loyalty vouchers to get extra money off in the sale, so we got it for £20 (ish).

I've been building this stuff up for a while and haven't done any proper shopping in quite a while :( Hopefully soon

Mini Haul!

I decided seeing as I was home for the weekend to stock up on some of my favourite everyday products that I can't afford myself at university. 

I got two deep conditioners (Re constructor and Luscious Long) and a shampoo (Miracle Moist) from Aussies; the deep conditioners are my favourite :-)


I then got a few luxuries, I needed a new clear nail varnish for using as a top coat, and while I was browsing the  nail varnishes I found the cutest lilac from Maybelline called Tempting Lilac

I really like it, plus it was only £3 reduced so I picked up the French Manicure colour for my mummy :)
I want to get a mint green and a coral soon because I really love cute pastel coloured nails but I'm determined to get Mint Candy Apple by Essie because I just loveeee that shade. If I find a drugstore alternative that I'm happy with I'll blog about it.


I also got a yummy raspberry milkshake flavoured exfoliator for fake tan purposes which smells like heaven. I always seem to be drawn to fruity scents a lot, if you are too you'll love the raspberry one, but if not you might prefer the Vanilla Creme Brulee flavoured one as that one was yummy as well! I used mine last night and it was good, not incredible as an exfoliator but okay and it smelled so goooooooooooood! Also it was only £1.50 from ASDA so it works very well for the price. I also got a fake tan I'm yet to try by Loreal which looks good to me :) I'll post about how it goes.


Then I got a couple of drugstore products that I've heard a lot about: 
Collection 2000 Lasting Perfection Ultimate Wear Concealer, in #1 Fair
and a Maybelline 24H Colour Tattoo in On and On Bronze (I think it's exactly the same shade as Bad to the Bronze in the US)
