Christmas Haul 2015

I thought I would share with you what beauty items I received/bought myself for Christmas and there is quite a lot!

Firstly, I’ll start with what I received:- Beauticology: Foot Treat Set (includes: Supersoft Socks, Vanilla Frosting Foot Lotion & Strawberry Frosting Foot Soak Crystals), VERSACE Mini Perfume Set, which includes four 5ml samples of some of their perfumes, including Crystal Noir, Bright Crystal, Yellow Diamond and Bright Crystal Absolu, Royal College Hall Mini Shower Gel & Body Lotion Set, which includes three shower gels and body lotions in three different scents (strawberry, mango and passionfruit), FRENCH CONNECTION Mini Pamper Collection, which includes five products; a body polisher, 50ml tub of body polish, 50ml tub of body butter, 75ml bottle of body wash and 75ml bottle of body spray. I believe all products are scented with the FCUK Pure scent, please correct me if I am wrong, Beauty Bakery Bath Bomb Set, which includes three large bath bombs and six small bath bombs (all smell heavenly), Soap & Glory The Next Big Thing™ Gift Set, which includes ten full sized products. Included is Hand Dream™ Super Cream (100ml), Orangeasm™ Body Wash (500ml), Butter Yourself™ Moisture Lotion (500ml), Heel Genius™ Foot Cream (125ml), Sugar Crush™ Body Scrub (300ml), Whipped Clean™ Shower Butter (250ml), The Righteous Butter™ Body Butter (300ml), Off Your Face™ 3-in-1 Daily Purifying Cloths (25 wipes), Sexy Mother Pucker™ Lip Lacquer in Charm Offensive (7ml) and Thick & Fast™ Super Volume Mascara (10ml). I also got some smaller cosmetics that were not part of sets; Barry M Nail Paint in Starlight (LE Christmas 2014 for Boots), Tabby Cat Pocket Mirror, Home Bargains Luxury Room Spray in Jasmine (got one in Hyacinth & Bluebell last year, which I loved!), Avon Planet Spa Sleep Serenity Pillow Mist (Camomile & Lavender), Classics Pump It Up Nail Polish Remover and Perfect Formulas Pink Gel Coat.

Lastly, I received a DOVE Real Woman Gift Set from one of my friends at work, which includes a 75ml tube of their Essential Nourishment Hand Cream, 250ml bottle of Essential Nourishing Body Lotion and 30ml pot of their Rich Nourishment Cream.
The next few items are my Christmas sales purchases, sort of! Boots now start their online sales on Christmas Eve, which is annoying, but I still made a few little purchases. I bought the GUCCI Guilty Perfume Gift Set; which includes the 30ml fragrance and 50ml body lotion, Paco Rabanne Lady Million Perfume Gift Set; which includes the 50ml fragrance and 100ml body lotion. Lastly on Christmas Eve, I got the Soap & Glory Irresistibubble!™ Gift Set; which includes a 75ml bottle of their Sugar Crush™ Body Wash and a 50ml tub of their Sugar Crush™ Body Buttercream. I purchased this set thinking it was the Soap & Glory Your Own Sweet Lime™ Gift Set, but I was sorely wrong! A few days after the Boxing Day sales, I decided to get this next set from Boots, which I was originally going purchase over the GUCCI Guilty set. I got the GUCCI Mini Parfums Set; which includes five 5ml samples of some of their perfumes, including Flora by GUCCI, GUCCI Guilty, GUCCI Guilty Black, GUCCI Première and GUCCI Première eau de toilette. I think this set was supposed to include Flora by GUCCI Gorgeous Gardenia instead of GUCCI Première eau de toilette, but for some reason this is what I got instead of.
Lastly, I bought two other items and only the set was discounted. I got the Roger & Gallet Fleur de Figuier Gift Set; which includes the 100ml fragrance, 50ml shower cream and 50ml body lotion and I bought a 30ml bottle of the Britney Spears - Cosmic Radiance Perfume.

WOW that was a lot to type! It’s fair to say that I did extremely well for presents and I am thankful for every last one.

Boots.com Haul #2 + Blog Sale Purchase

I thought I would share a haul with you today. I haven’t done one for a while but I recently ordered a few items from Boots and I wanted to let you know about it. I bought the Real Techniques Brush Cleansing Palette , which includes two sample sachets of the deep cleansing gel. I have been waiting for something like this and I cannot wait to try it. I simply refuse to buy the Sigma version, plus I don’t think it needs to be that big. I also got a packet of the Oral-B Precision Clean Electric Toothbrush Heads because they were on offer and I got eight for the price of four. I got four tubes of the Soap & Glory Sugar Crush Hand Sanitiser because I absolutely love the scent and I wanted to put them in difference rooms so they are always to hand when needed. I bought a back-up of the Rimmel Match Perfection Foundation , which is my favourite foundation and I use the shade 010 Light Porcelain. Lastly, I got the Rimmel Brow This Way Styling Gel in Clear. It is the second tube I...

Farewell!

Hello everyone, As you can see from the title of this post, I have decided to quit blogging!. Blogging has been a part of my life for over 11 years and I have enjoyed it a lot and it has also been a form of therapy for me. But it’s now time to leave, my life has evolved so much this last year and a half and I am now looking forward to exploring new things. I have also closed my blog e-mail address, Twitter account and Bloglovin account. I will be leaving up all of my posts, but I have turned off new comments. Take care and thank you for all your support over the years. ♥ ♥ ♥

Dose of Colors Liquid Matte Lipsticks in Old Flame & Camp Fire

I decided to buy these and give them ago after hearing good things about them online, there is also a great shade selection. My current favourite lipsticks are the Jeffree Star Cosmetics Velour Liquid Lipsticks and I wanted to see how these DOC ones would compare. Old Flame - warm rusty orange Camp Fire - burnt sienna These creamy matte liquid lipsticks are mean’t to be rich in colour, long wearing and dry down to a velvety, comfortable and matte finish. You should exfoliate your lips prior to application and avoid consuming oily/greasy foods once applied. You can purchase them for £18.00 ($18.00) each from DoseofColors.com and BeautyBay.com. They are also cruelty-free and vegan. My First Impressions The packaging is like the Jeffree Star Cosmetics Velour Liquid Lipsticks and the actual formula of the DOC liquid lipsticks kind of reminds me of the JSC ones too. The formula is more of a cream rather than liquid, unlike the JSC’s ones. The formula comes out kind ...
