It all went wrong, I went into Boots and I just kept putting items into my shopping basket and came away with a lot less money in my bank account. Oh well, at least its created a blog post for ya, eh.. haha.
Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer - 1 light.
I have loved this concealer for a very long time, it has a very high coverage. I use this on any blemishes and redness that I may have. I would say to stay away from putting it under your eyes because it sometimes does get cakey under the eyes.
Rimmel London Lasting Finish Mono Blush - Santa Rose
I picked this up because I just thought it was such a nice peach colour. My favourite blusher is
Benefit's Coralista and it just reminded me of that for a fraction of the price.
RRP: £3.99

Maybelline Lash Sensational mascara [waterproof] black
I'm not one for waterproof mascaras, just because I've always thought they take ages to take off at the end of the day, aint nobody got time for that! You're probably thinking, I didn't mean to buy it then?! Say what... But yes, my eyes have been watering now, since I went to France really. I don't really know whats going on with them! Therefore I picked up a waterproof mascara to stop the mascara smudging all over my face. So far, so good.
RRP:£7.99
Soap and Glory Gloss Stick - Nudist
I have heard a lot of people chatting on about these little beauties. I believe they used to be twice the size and twice the price. I do really like the smaller size, its more travel friendly and just a lot cuter. I love the shade 'nudist' it's a very good natural colour, great for everyday wear and just a lovely option if you don't like venturing out for bright shades. Very creamy and glossy too, I love the formula, very hydrating.
Eylure Eyelashes - 100 petite volume
Purely picked these up for one word and one word only... petite! I always find it hard when it comes to lashes, purely because of the size, they are always waaaaay too long for my eyes and I can never seem to cut them correctly and then they just don't look right and they then fall off. Never a good look. Hopefully these petite ones will just do the trick for me.
RRP: £5.29
Garnier Micellar water x2 - [sensitive skin]
I love the Garnier Micellar water, it's great if you want a quick refreshing wash over your face, using a cotton pad. Or it's great for removing makeup. I picked up 2 of the mini ones because they are super cute! I am using the big 400ml bottle atm, and honestly it's lasted me ages! The mini ones just worked out cheaper, hense buying those (haha).
RRP: £1.00 (each)
L'Oreal Colour Riche Eyeshadow - 107 Macaron Vanille
I am yet to use this particular shade, however I have used one of these eyeshadows before (
206 nude - Little Beige Dress) and the shadow broke after like a day, I wasn't impressed at all. But I did think I would give these shadows another go. The shade I have now is a lovely matte shade, it's slightly orangey and I thought it would look nice in the crease.
RRP: £5.49
Maybelline 7 day wear nail varnish - 05
I'm always on the prawl to find a nail varnish that lasts longer than a day (haha) but yes, when I saw that this said 7 days, I thought I need it! The shade is also very autumnal, a very deep burgundy shade. I have just applied this for the first time, it only took 1 coat to get a good solid colour, so I am impressed with it at the minute. If my views change, you will be the first to know!
RRP: £4.49
Barry M Sunset Daylight Curing Nail Paint - Dark Side of the Shroom
& Daylight during Topcoat
Without a doubt this is my favourite product I bought, I love the shade of this nail paint, its a beautiful muted lilac shade. The Topcoat is nice too, the idea behind this range (I am late on this bandwagon but please forgive me) is that you apply your nail paint and then you apply the topcoat. The daylight curing topcoat is the only topcoat that will work. The topcoat is meant to cure your nails in natural daylight, leaving long lasting nails. I really really like this combo, highly recommend. I would have to say there aren't too many colours in the range that I like though, there was a nice fuchsia pink and a cute little baby pink. Other than that not many of the colours stood out too me.
RRP: £4.99 (each)
Hope you enjoyed that beauty haul from the drugstore/highstreet. I do really love popping in and seeing what new affordable bits are about. Speak to you soon!
