Boots.com Haul #1

I have another naughty haul for you today. It is kind of justified though and a couple of the products I have been waiting to buy for a long time.

Firstly I got two gift sets because they were still half price. I got the Dove Radiance Duo Gift Set, which includes two body washes in Revive Pomegranate & Lemon Verbena, Burst Nectarine & White Ginger and a shower puff. Soap & Glory Bubble Barrelled Gift Set, which includes six miniature sizes of Clean On Me, Hand Food, The Scrub of Your Life, Heel Genius, Glad Hair Day, The Righteous Butter and a headband, which all come inside a beautiful shower bag. For regular purchases I got the Boots Tea Tree & Witch Hazel Peel Off Face Mask and Soap & Glory Rich and Foamous Body Wash. Lastly, I received two sample sachets of Nivea Cellular Anti-Age Skin Rejuvenation Day Cream.

I bought this order with the Boots Advantage Card Points I had been saving. I was waiting to get a wash bag from Soap & Glory, which is £16 and I happen to come across the gift set I got and thought it was a lot cheaper and prettier than the one I was going to get. Overall I am happy with my purchases and it didn’t really cost me anything. I also got it shipped to my local store for free, so all I needed to do was collect it on my way home from work!

What naughty purchases have you made lately?

Beauty Bakerie Lip Whips & Remover

I had wanted to try these lipsticks for a very long time, but I was sceptical as I had heard mixed reviews. Some people love them, some people dislike them. I had also heard that they are very hard to remove, which leads me to believe that the staying power must be there. My current favourite liquid lipsticks are still the JSC Velour ones and nothing else I have tried has topped them yet, a couple of brands have come close though! ABOUT THE PRODUCTS The packaging of the lipsticks is simple, but aesthetically pleasing; I like the blue accent caps. It is made out of plastic and there is something inside the tube to make the formula looked twisted in the tube, which is a nice detail that I haven’t seen before. The applicator is a little pear shaped sponge with a little well in the middle to hold the product. The packaging of the remover is also pretty simple and cute. The container is made of lightweight plastic and you could easily repurpose it once you have used up the wipes. You get 3...

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 ...
