Bank Holiday Weekend Haul
Wednesday, May 29, 2013
Hello lovely internet people, how are you after the glorious
may bank holiday weekend that we had?
I don’t know about you but I find bank holidays very busy
and this one proved to be no different. During the course of the weekend I have
found that I bought some new items that I want to share with you in my first
haul post J
The First purchase that I want to mention is my new electric
toothbrush, I am stupidly excited about this because as you can see it is
pink!! What more do you want from a tooth brush if it is pink. I have been
after a new electric toothbrush for some time and have noticed that they can be
quite expensive, therefore when I saw this one in Superdrug for better than
half price it just could not say no. It also came with a handy travel case for
the toothbrush which I am very happy with and a toothbrush head.
Now my second splurge of the bank holiday weekend was a new
pair of sandals, what can I say the sun was shining and I felt summery. I really
love these they are from Clarks and are called Sail Cruise. They have a super
soft cushion sole and come in coral suede, black patent and the nude patent colour
which was the one that caught my eye the most as I think I will be able to wear
them with all different types of outfits.
As you can see they also have a twisted diamante pattern on the T-bar which
were a plus for me as I love a bit of sparkle in my life.
Next on my list of buys came after I went into Superdrug
with my sister, having no intention of buying anything only to be sucked in my
MUA’s insanely good value for money products. A quick trip into the store
turned into about half an hour of me swatching various products deciding which
to for in the 3 for 2 deal. Eventually I decided upon one of their £1 lipstick in shade 3. Now I LOVE LOVE this lipstick, the shade is amazing, it smells
great (weird I know), its super pigmented and it has great staying power. Now I
regrettably do have quite dry lips so with most lipsticks I have to apply
something to nourish my lips beforehand, this makes sure that my lips stay moisturised
while the lipstick is on.
Along with the lipstick I also brought two nail varnishes
from the £1 range, This range has so many amazing colours in it and it took me
a while to narrow it down to two but in the end I decided upon Pistachio ice cream, which is my favourite a lovely minty blue/green colour and Plum Noir
which is on the pinkish end of the plum scale. They are two beautiful shades
and I am in the process of testing them at the moment.
My final big spend of the weekend was on something that I have
been planning on buying for a while, now me and my sister have this weird thing
of buying our foundation together as most of the time we need to buy some at
the same time. We both have found that the process of testing different brands
is a lot more fun with someone else, also matching the colour is very important
and I trust no one more than my sister to tell me the truth about if a colour
matches my skin tone.
I ended up buying MAC’s Studio Fix Fluid in NC15 with SPF
15, I have only had it for a couple of days but so far I love it and it is definitely the right shade for me. One annoying factor is that you do have to buy the pump
separately but once you have it you don’t need to buy it again, unless it
breaks.
Have you brought anything over the weekend if so what?
