Here are some recent purchases:
1. Garnier Simply Essentials Soothing 2 in 1 make up remover. £2.99 I buy this cleanser time and time again. It removes stubborn mascara and every scrap of make up without drying or irritating my sensitive skin.
2. 3 & 7. Models Own Nail polish £5 In my opinion one of the best nail products out there for the price. Amazing range of colours (of which I probably have far too many)! I bought two polishes and got a free nail art pen in black. 2. head kandi in Beach party (amazing neon orange) and 3. Pink fizz (just about the glitziest, glitter polish I've ever seen!)
Note: There's an offer on at the moment! For £10 you can buy the eye cream and get a free mascara and sunglasses!
5. Avon true colour blush in earthen rose. £6 This is a nice everyday neutral, brown. Possibly a little on the dark side for me but with a tan it will be perfect. Good for contouring.
6. Max Factor colour adapt foundation 70 Natural. £9.99 Normally I only use Mac Studio Sculpt foundation (nw20-25) but it's running a bit low so I grabbed this old favourite I used to use years ago. The formula isn't much different to studio sculpt in a way, a sort of gel like consistency (!)
Note: Boots offer on Max Factor. Spend £15 and get a free gift!
7. Maybelline Dream fresh BB cream in Light. £7.99 I love BB creams for when I don't want to wear foundation and thought I'd try this. Sadly I'm not keen on it. It just doesn't seem to blend away the flaws very well! I much prefer the Garnier BB cream.
A bit of a departure from my usual posts but I like to share (!) I also love reading posts like this. (Yes I'm nosey and like to see what you're buying) Leave a link in the comments if you've got similar posts, please.
I was interested in buying the Maybelline BB cream but all the testers were disgusting with product everywhere and I didn't want to touch them, after hearing your thoughts on it I'm rather glad! x
ReplyDeleteUgh! Don't you just hate that. Wish they'd clean' em!! ;D xx
DeleteI swear by the avon eye lift & also use the blushers. Definitely good value :-)
ReplyDeleteYes, very good value! I love this eye cream. :D xx
DeleteCan't beat a good beauty haul :)
ReplyDeleteI have the avon blusher, i think it's pretty good and great value at £6. Loving the glitzy nail polish too xxx
It's true a beauty haul lifts your spirits if not your purse! ;D xx
DeleteI loved this post!
ReplyDeleteI need to try that make-up remover! I never seem to find a budget friendly make-up remover that work on stubborn mascara :)
And I really want to try that BB cream!
It's nice to see some blog post from you again! :) Have a nice week!
Aww, thanks Niina! I find the cleanser really good for mascara. You don't need to rub either! :D xx
ReplyDeleteAww I hated that BB cream too! It looked so orange on my skin :( xox

Yeah, very disappointing :( xx
DeleteI've heard so much about BB cream! It's been labelled as "the secret of Korean actresses". It's widely popular in Korea, but I'm wary of it. I wanted to try out some testers but haven't got hold of any yet! I'm kind of glad in a way, I have read reviews that BB creams don't really do much in reality. I recently stumbled across your blog and I LOVE it! I love the layout to the content and everything in between! Your blog is simply the epitome of perfection! I am your newest, most avid follower, I look forward to reading your future posts. I would love it if you could perhaps follow me back too? Have a lovely day!
ReplyDeleteLove from, MISSIFFA
