Haul: Some Little Things


I have a haul for you today and I actually went shopping yesterday, but I forgot to haul the items because I was tired. I didn’t really buy much but the majority of the items I actually needed because I had run out.

Firstly I went to Superdrug and picked up three Barry M Gelly Nails Paints because there was a 3 for 2 offer on them, so I got one free. The shades I got are Grapefruit, Dragon Fruit and Papaya, they were £3.99 each. Also from Superdrug I bought two of the MUA Power Pout Colour Intense Tint & Balm sticks in the shades Irreplaceable and Justify and they were £3 each.

After Superdrug I went to two bargain stores and picked up two cans of Right Guard Women Total Defence 5 48H Invisible Power Anti-Perspirant Deodorant in the small 150ml size, which were £1 each and two boxes of my Schwarzkopf Palette Intensive Cream Colour Hair Dye in the colour 678 Ruby Red, which is my favourite at the moment and they were £2.49 each. The last shop I visited yesterday was Morrisons and I just picked up the Daily Care Mouthwash in Cool Mint for 58p and So Clear Deep Clean Cleanser for £1.49.

A few weeks ago I went to Superdrug to pick up some skin care products from Soap & Glory. I got The Greatest Scrub of All Facial Exfoliator for £9 and The Fab Pore Facial Peal. I didn’t realise until I got home that it was buy one get one half price for Soap & Glory, so I got the facial peel for £4 instead of £8 which was a very nice surprise.

That is all my recent purchases, nothing really exciting but I am trying to save money and use what I already have. Either near the end of this year or the start of next year I will probably buy more stuff, but until then you will have to make do with little bits and bobs for hauls!

Thank you for reading J

My Eye Primers: The Verdict!

It has taken me a long time to put this altogether, but I have finally done it! I decided I wanted to share my thoughts on eye primers I had tried and it turned out that I had ten, so I thought I would test them and find out which one worked best for me. I have split them into two categories (High End/Low End) and I aim to rank them from #1 to #10 on which is the longest wearing. Let’s look at the primers I will be testing. HIGH END URBAN DECAY PRIMER POTION PRICE: £17.50 SIZE: 10ml SHADES: Original, Anti-ageing, Freebase, Eden, Fix, Minor Sin, Sin and Caffeine APPLICATION: Squeeze tube without a nozzle, but also has a sponge stick applicator PROMISES: Non-creasing, gives you vibrant eyeshadows WHERE TO BUY: UrbanDecay.co.uk (UK) & Sephora (USA) I like to think that this primer is my favourite as I love the packaging (purple is my favourite colour). It is potion bottle inspired and it is the first primer I remember ever seeing and wanting. The packa...

Perfume Power! - Next 'Paradise'

I first smelt this perfume after receiving it in a mini gift set about ten years ago and I have loved it ever since. This 100ml size is my first bottle of it though, other than the tester/sample size. The bottle is quite tall and it is a sort of clutch bag shape if you turn it on its side. The bottle is a simple design and you can easily see how much perfume you have. On mine the spray pump sometimes gets stuck in the band around the neck of the bottle, but the problem is easily solved. I can’t find a specific note list anywhere for this perfume, but on Next’s site it is described as, "a light fruity fragrance with white florals and green notes". To me it smells really fruity and fresh. It is also multifunctional because it is quite strong and sexy, so perfect for a night out, but it is also not too overpowering and smells fresh and fruity enough for day time wear. It is actually an eau de toilette, which means that it is less concentrated, but I find that it is st...
