Mini Haul

...I really have no self control!


The main reason i went to boots was to buy a hair dye! I used to have blonde sections in the bottom layers of my hair and they are showing through again and i hate it! Originally i bought a reddy brown colour but i decided it was a bad idea because i want it to fade out naturally as i want to try and get back to my natural colour. So instead i went with a really plain dark brown thats close to my natural colour...



And of course while i was there i had to pick up a few extra bits to make the 'most' of the double points!!


I got two barry m glossy tubes in number 4 (left) which is a gorgeous nudey colour and number (2) which is a irridescent light pink colour. These are the first barry m glosses i have purchased and i LOVE them. The colours, the consistency, the pigmentation! I think they are great! :) Has anyone tried any of the other colours??


I also got the loreal super liner in carbon gloss. At the minute i use maybelline liner express, which is fine but i'm still experimenting with liquid liners because i only started using them about 4 months ago! (I never though i would be capable of applying it in a straight line) The main reason i got this is for the applicator, which is the same as the maybelline one. Its like the spongey tip... i really can't get on with the ones with the really fine brushes... how anyone achieves a straight line with that i will never know!



And finally i went mad on nail polish! Barry M nail paints are two for £5 at the minute, so i thought i would add to my collection. And revlon nail polishes had £2 off... so i couldn't resist picking up tropical temptation and spotted the cute pink colour aswell! Nail polish is definately my biggest weakness!!

From left to right - barry m 294 cyan blue, barry m 279 bright pink, revlon 093 tropical tempation, 090 posh pink.

Oh by the way... can anyone recommend me a really good base coat/top coat... my nail polish never seems to last no matter which brand i use and it really frustrates me!

Hope you all had a great monday!

Beauty Spree

I got my boots vouchers through the post yesterday which was an excuse for me to go and blow some money on make up! Not that i needed an excuse...


SO i got the other two barry m lipsticks i had been pining after and then a natural collection lip gloss because i loved the colour and it only cost £1.95 :)


From left to right - Barry M 100, Barry M 146, Collection 2000 lipgloss in fondant!

I've been wanting to try this bronzer for ages. I hit pan on my current bronzer so thought it was the perfect chance to try it. I haven't had chance to test it out properly yet... but hopefully i'll love it!


Loreal resist and shine nail polish - 102






I've been searching for the perfect baby pink nail polish for ages and this might just be the one. It's a really pale pink with a darker pink shimmer running through it. This picture doesn't do it justice at all. It's a really delicate and pretty colour.



I also popped into superdrug to get another sleek eyeshadow palette in jewels.





I absolutely love the colours in this palette. They are totally unique to anything else i have in my collection which is the main reason i picked it up. I just think they are gorgeous and totally wearable!

While i was there i did check out the acid palette because everyones been raving about it. And yeah... they are amazing colours but i just can't see myself wearing such bright/neon colours. I think it would be one of those items that just sat in my collection not really being used.

Has anyone else tried the acid palette??

Stay beautiful! xXx
