London haul part 1

Hey all!
I went into london for a little while today and did a little shopping in Oxford street, actually I say a 'little' it was probably a bit more than what you would call little I blame Primark! I thought I would do the hauls in two separate blog posts because I didn't want this to end up being one huge post that you'd be falling asleep half way through reading. So even though I didn't buy a huge amount in Superdrug but thought I would go ahead and show you all what I bought anyway!


Revolution Eye Pallet
I had actually been hearing and reading quite a few things about this pallet and I thought they looked so beautiful, every single pallet Superdrug sold were such gorgeous colours but I tend to stick with the nudes and the natural colours so this was perfect for me. I didn't expect it to be as cheap as it was either, I have yet to try it but hoping it's as good as it looks!

Real Technique Brushes 
I debated for a short while in the shop whether to get a whole set of brushes or just pick them out separately (How do you buy your brushes?) I have a few real techqniue brushes and loved them so because I was familiar with the brand I wanted to get ones that I haven't yet purchased. Although I would love to try some new brushes so if you have any recommendations I would love to hear them!

Zoella's Fiz Bar 
I haven't actually tried any of Zoe's products before but have been meaning to buy some, As you may or may not know I do love my baths so it was obvious for me which product I wanted to try first. I also love the fact that it says 'Do not eat' on it, and no I haven't tried eating it (:

And that's pretty much what I got from Superdrug, oh apart from some sugar free gum. There's a nice short and sweet haul post for ya, but if you like haul posts keep an eye out for part 2 where I purchased some things from Primark and Forever 21. 

Have you tried any of these products? If there's anything you recommend me trying from Superdrug next time I go please let me know. 

I've also got a question that's completely un related to this post but can't find a way to solve this problem. My profile picture comes out blury every time I change it to a profile picture, the original is a pefectly normal picture and not blury anyone know how to make it clear?

March Favourites.

There's been quite a few things that I've newly discovered this month and wanted to share them
with you because I absolutely love them!


Soap & Glory Bubble Bath
This is one I've spoken about in a previous post. I had never actually tried anything from Soap & Glory before so I picked up this bubble bath because I absolutely love baths! And I'm just pretty happy that I picked this one up because it smelt amazing and definitely made the bath very relaxing! I would love to try some other products from Soap & Glory so if you have any recommendations please let me know and I'll go and try them out. 

Baby Lip Balms 
These are things I'm starting to sort of collect now, I just think they're super cute and really handy to carry around with you every day. So easy to apply and so useful to have if you sometimes get dry lips like I do, and they'r perfect for things like work because they don't bring too much colour to your lips but they bring a nice shine and makes your lips feel nice and moisturised and soft! 

Rimmel Match Foundation 
This is a product that I have been using for quite a long time now, definitely my favourite foundation that I've tried! Becuase I have pale skin it can be quite hard to find colours that match my skin colour. So if you have pale skin like myself I really recommend '101 classic Ivory' for you.

Benefit Eyebrow filler 
This is a new discovered product for me, and again a first purchase of mine from 'Benefit'. I was just looking around the Benefit stand when one of the assistants who worked with Benefit started chatting to me about this eye brow product and she was actually really helpful even though I wasn't looking to buy anything she recommended this to me and I thought why not give it a go? My sister has also used this product before so I was familiar with it. It's a small product but she told me that it lasted her about 8 months even when she used it every day! It shapes your eye brows really well and defintely something I recommend. It is a little pricer to what I usually spend on make up Items but for me I'd say it was worth it. 

Lasting Collection Concealer 
This is also something that I have been using for a long time now, I'd say it's one of my top favourite all time make up products. I often get really bad dark circles under my eyes and this consealer is like my best friend. It just makes you look more awake and lasts a long time. I go through quite a lot of these.

Kate Lip colour
This is just something that caught my eye when I was out shopping one time and I tend to go for the 'nude' colours on my lips just because that's something I feel comfortable with and that I love. 


I am so in love with this bag I recently purchased from H&M. There was a bright yellow version of this bag which I'd like to go back and see if they still have because it was such a pretty colour. Though I thought White would go more with what I wear, and I think It's perfect for spring/summer. I believe this was around £5.99 so a pretty good bargain if you ask me, especially for H&M! 

Music
I've been loving so many artists this month! So many new albums have come out and I can't stop listening to them, but here's my top three that has recently been released. 

Kelly Clarkson

I've always loved Kelly Clarkson and I think this album has to be my favourite that she's ever done. Just go listen to it! :)

The Veronica's 

I was really happy when I heard they were bringing out a new album because I've always loved their music, it's always really catchy! 

James Bay 


So In love with him and his music so talented! I've only recently discovered his music but so glad that I did because I can't actually stop playing his new album. 

What have been your favourites recently?

Make up Storage


I don't know about you but sometimes I don't have enough patience to rummage around the many make up Items that I have in my make up bag, sometimes I feel like the bag is a lucky dip and whatever comes out comes out. I recently got this make little make up storage as a gift for my birthday and so decided to put the products that I am most likely to use in it (Minus my foundation and concealer because they simply don't fit) I guess that's the only down side to this storage because it's pretty small, but it's cute and perfect for putting your absolute essentials in it. 
Because it's now spring time I've put all the make up that I know I will get the most use out of during this season inside. 


I'm pretty useless when it comes to remembering names of some products, the names are on the bottom of the Items but it's seemed to have rubbed off and is no longer readable. But these are all from Boots and quite recent purchases so It shouldn't be too hard to recognise if your inerested in buying any.


I really love these 'lasting finish Colour rush pencils, the first one I ever purchased was the one on the right (as you can probably tell!) But it's a really pretty natural colour which is exactly what I usually go for. 
The one on the left which is a much more brighter colour isn't something that I often pick up to buy, I always love the bright colours but honestly just have never been brave enough to wear them because I personally don't think I can pull them off. But I thought I would give it a go and although I don't think it's something I would wear all the time It's perfect for summer and it is definitely a really pretty colour!



You may know about my love for 'Barry M' and 'Essie' Nail varnishes. I absoultey adore these colours and think they're perect for spring/summer. 


I've been collecting these cute baby lip balms lately, just love them! They are great for if you annoyingly get dry lips like myself sometimes, but they're also just great to keep in your hand bag all day. 

I'm hoping to eventually get something bigger than this that'll help me be a bit more organised with my make up but for now It's useful! And it goes so well with the rest of the things I keep on top of my draws.

I went shopping!

Hey all! Hows it going?
I recently did a bit of shopping and came back with a few things so of course it's a perfect excuse to do a haul post. It wasn't a huge shopping trip I only ended up purchasing a few things from Boots and H&M but haven't done a haul in a little while!

I cannot go shopping and not go into H&M It is my all time favourite shop and they always do things that I love in there. Anyhow I only came back buying two Items in there one of reasons which is because I'm trying not to spend a lot at the moment and another is that they are actually re doing the shop, normally It's a pretty great H&M and sell a lot of things but It's only on one floor at the moment and have cut down selling a lot.
The first thing which caught my eye was this light pink jersey top with birds on, I usually go for simple/plain things and rarely pick Items with patterns on but recently I've been loving things with patterns and I really liked this and it was only £7.99 which is a pretty good bargin I think!

You can find the Jersey top here, http://www.hm.com/gb/product/87540?article=87540-D


I then noticed this cute body bag in the accessories section and absolutely love it! I was deciding between a yellow one or this white one, I thought the white one would pretty much go with anything. Although I think I may go back and get the yellow one because it was such a pretty colour and it would have been an amazing colour to wear In the summer. Not that I needed another bag but couldn't walk away from it! If I remember rightly I think this was around £5.99.

I then went into Boots because my make up bag needed some serious updating and replacing. So over the weeks I have been buying quite a few new make up/beauty products. 


I really really didn't need any more nail poslishes but I just loved these colours, I seem to be really loving pink nail polishes at the moment especially since spring has quickly arrived! 
I then also wasn't meaning to buy anything for my brows but I was taking a look at the 'Benefit' section which honestly I have never really tried before. And then got talking to one of the girls who worked on the Benefit counter and she was really helpful talking about this 'Benefit' eyebrow product and she basically just really recommended it to me so I thought why not give it a go? It was a little pricier to make up Items that I usually buy but I wanted to test it out myself, my sister had also been going on about this particular Item. 


'Collection' is one of my favourite brands, If not my favourite. I cannot express how much I love their concealers and eye liners. I definitely needed some new eye shadow's and just thought these were some really pretty colours and perfect for spring with the light pinks and purples!
