I am such a sucker it's becoming ridiculous. As soon as I step into Boots or Superdrug they're laughing!! The majority of all these lovely beautiful things have been brought because there was some sort of offer on them one way or another, except the MUA, I just had to have the MUA! This post is bit picture heavy but that's because each photo shows the offer. So if you'd like the laugh at how easy I get sucked into buying things, then continue to read and then leave me a comment about how foolish I've been. But one way or another, I will justify each and every piece of this lovely beauty-ness!
First up is Soap and Glory. They are my biggest beauty weakness when it comes to beauty. I will one day do a post on my collection, it's just ridiculous, and I just keep on and on buying more. However, I did save myself a whooping £10 as when you spend £10 or more on beauty products you get the lovely tub of Butter Yourself free. It would just be point black rude really wouldn't it? One of the things which I don't have in my collection yet is Pulp Friction and I've heard so many people rave about it and it won a Stylist Skincare award in 2012. It smells incredible and its self and Butter Yourself have the same fragrance. Pulp Friction costs £8.00 and I didn't want to spend out on another full sized product so I picked up the last Hand Maid hand-sanitiser for £2.50, these are just perfect, they smell great and I take mine everywhere. So this little lot enabled me to get my free Butter Yourself. Yaay! The offer is not valid on Soap and Glorys skincare range, however on their skin care range they had an offer of buy one product and get another half price.
Next up are the Barry M Gelly Hi Shines. Again I have succumbed to bblogger peer pressure after everyone saying how great they were and I have to admit, they really were. Superdrug were doing an offer on the Hi Shines of 2 for £6.00, which I'm not sure they're doing now, but do make sure you check if they are. However, Boots currently have their 3 for 2 offer on at the moment. So from left to right I picked up Blueberry, Dragon and Papaya. I don't really have very many pastel colours for summer so these are great and I've already tried Dragon and I was so impressed with the results!
More Nail Polish? Really? Well yes, because I don't have anything sort of like these colours. Told you I could justify everything and plus NYC in Superdrug have an offer of any two nail polishes for £2.99. As you could imagine the stand was verging on empty as it was across their whole nail polish range, but luckily these two are gorgeous and I picked them up in shades Lincoln Square Lavender and Greenwich Village from left to right.
More nail polish? Yes, I promise you this is the last one and again it was bblogger pressure, it looks so pretty and everyone says how good it is so I have to have it, but it's okay, because it was free with the 3 for 2 offer at Boots. Win, win! The L'oreal Top Coat Confetti is an amazing top coat to give your nails that speckled look and retails at £4.99. Next is Bourjois Effect 3D Lipgloss. I've been wanting to try out Coral lips but I'm too scared to go straight in with a lipstick so I thought I'd ease my way in with those gorgeous gloss which has hints of gold glitter throughout it. The Lipgloss retails at £7.69 and I brought the shade Corail Idyllic. Finally after falling in love with the Rimmel Apocalips I have added another colour to my collection in the form of Nova for £5.99.
Lastly, I had to feed my MUA addiction with a few pieces from their Undress Your Skin range. Of course I have to pick up the Undress Me Too Palette for a bargain of £3.00 as they currently have a pound off it at the moment along with the Undress Your Skin Highlighter for £2.00 as that also had a pound off it.
As you can see all these things were necessities! What have you been buying recently?!
Are you in the U.K. I had no idea NYC sold in the U.K. I like the brand but never tried their nail polish.
ReplyDeleteYes, I'm in the UK, they stock them in Superdrug and lots of other products from the brand :) I love their nail polishes, they're great!
DeleteOh I would LOVE to try that buttercream body lotion. It sounds heavenly xx

DeleteHaha I'm such a sucker too! I can't help it when I go in! Love you blog lovely, your newest follower :) xxx
ReplyDeleteThank you Nikki! :) XX
DeleteI ordered the Undress Me palette by mistake (meant to get Undress Me Too) but it arrived and was so fantastic that I immediately went back and ordered Too (and let's be honest - a few other items made their way into my cart as well)! I cannot believe these palettes are 3 pounds!?!?? They're a little over $4 USD, and even with international shipping to Atlanta, GA, they still come in almost $40 bucks cheaper than buying Urban Decay Naked2! MUA's shadows are complete @ss kickers! :) I've GOT to try the Rimmel Apocalips! I am seeing them everywhere and have been so tempted to try them! Happy Tuesday!
ReplyDeleteI'm in love with them, their trios are also great! :) Definitely so much better than paying out for the Urban Decay Naked palettes. You really do, I'm in love with them and now own five! XX
DeleteGreat haul! I love that Rimmel Apocalips shade :)
