1st Haul of 2012

From Superdrug I purchased yet another Barry M Nail Paint. This one has been on my list for a while though, it is called 310 Mushroom and it is just a beige/brown colour, and cost £2.99, which gave me 2 BeautyCard Points.
Today from Boots I bought two Soap & Glory Gift Sets called ‘Soaper Heroes’ for £12.77 and ‘Yum At Heart’ for £8 (was £16). The Soaper Heroes gift set is not a Christmas one; I think it is a kind of permanent line set, whereas the Yum At Heart gift set was for Christmas. In the Soaper Heroes set you get a 100ml Girligo Body Mist, 50ml Righteous Body Butter, 50ml Flakeaway Body Scrub, 75ml Clean on Me shower gel and 50ml Hair Supply Hair Repair Mask. Soap & Glory describe this as a mini travel size selection of their most loved products. In the Yum At Heart set you get a 125ml Hand Food hand cream, 300ml The Breakfast Scrub and a Print Apron.
At the weekend I picked up a Maybelline The One by One Volum’ Express Mascara for £8.49 from Boots. There was an offer for Maybelline buy one product and get a cheaper one half price. So I bought my sister the same mascara but in waterproof and she got hers half price at £4.24, because I am a nice sister! ;P
From FragranceMad.com I bought two items. I came across this website recently because I typed Travalo in Google and it came up with this site and as it happens the Travalo product is cheaper on this site and so was the other item I purchased, so win win. Obviously I bought a Travalo, in the colour Black for £6.99 (RRP £9.99). I also got another Avril Lavigne ‘Black Star’ perfume in 30ml for £16.49.

Too Faced Pumpkin Spice Palette

I first saw a preview of this palette in early August on the Trendmood Instagram page. I just knew I had to have it. I also own and love the Gingerbread Spice and Gingerbread Extra Spicy Palettes by Too Faced. These are the only types of holiday palettes that actually interest me from Too Faced. All of their other holiday palettes tend to be gimmicky (but pretty looking) and not good quality. THE PACKAGING The packaging is a rounded rectangular shaped tin in a beautiful pumpkin orange colour. The design on the front kind of looks like spread on a cracker. The name of the palette is printed in two different raised fonts. It has a magnetic closing, which you lift up to reveal the inside of the palette. The little rectangular eyeshadow pans are arranged across a metallic gold base, with the shade names printed in a small black font above each pan. There is also a mirror on the underside of the lid of the palette. THE EYESHADOWS & FORMULA You get eighteen 0.70g eyeshadows in Matte (M),...

Serial Sampler #17

I chose this sample as my free gift with purchase and I hadn’t heard of the brand before. It happens to be part of a series of four fragrances and they are all unisex/genderless. The designs of the full sized bottles are very interesting and artsy. Looking at the four, had I been able to pick which one to receive, I most likely would have chosen the one called 10am Flirt as it seems the fruitiest based of the four. The sample I have is Santal Sky by KIERIN NYC and it is a 1.5ml spritzer sample of the eau de parfum. “Intertwined like vines, we stroll through Central Park. Leaves release their woody fragrance. Under a canopy of trees, in the center of it all, we are a million miles from city life. Music from impromptu drum circles, the rhythm of runners’ footsteps, diverse languages fill my ears like poetry. This retreat into nature refreshes my soul. The sun smiling down upon us, I pull my loved one close. In synchronicity we breathe.” It contains a mixture notes, such ...
