Superdrug Haul #1

I went to Superdrug a couple of hours ago and bought a couple of things, hardly worth hauling I know, but I’ve just started blogging and it’s something to blog about.

I originally went to Superdrug to buy two nail polishes by NYC because there was an offer on for 3 for 2 on that brand. Plus Barry M (I collect their nail paints) didn’t have two shades similar to the ones I was going to purchase. I was going to get NYC’s Quick Dry Polish in Lincoln Square Lavender and Long Wearing Polish in Starry Silver Glitter. And I also went to get a headband because I have an interview tomorrow and I want to do something different with my hair rather than leaving it just down, because it is thick and doesn’t stay straight and in place that long, so a headband would give it some depth and break it up a bit on my head, plus it makes me look even more mature.

So back to what I actually bought from Superdrug, all of three items. I couldn’t find the two NYC polishes I was after, as they were sold out so I picked up Superdrug’s Wide Alice Headband for £2.59, Maybelline’s Volum’ Express the Colossal Cat Eyes Mascara in Glam Black for £5.99 (was £7.99) and lastly Carmex’s Moisturising Lip Balm in Cherry for £2.54. So overall I spent £11.12 and received 11 BeautyCard points, which I think is wrong seeing as though on their website the mascara is worth 25 points, the lip balm is worth 10 points and the headband is worth 10 points!!!! So I don’t know how they work it out if you buy all three together.

I haven't tried any of the products out yet, but I will be hopefully wearing the headband tomorrow, if I remember to put it on. I'm not really looking forward to the interview as it is about an hour and ten minutes drive from where I live, so I'll be very nervous and probably feeling crappy because of the boring car journey, but hay ho it should all be worth it in the end. On another note the lip balm smells ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!! I love the cherry scent so much. I was going to get the original one but when I saw the cherry one I thought I may as well buy it because it will have a scent and it's the exact same price as the original, so in my mind I was getting something kind of 'extra' for the same amount of money.

Perfume Power! - Aquolina 'Pink Sugar'

I purchased this perfume because of all the hype in the YouTube ‘Beauty Guru’ community. The bottle design is very simple and classic and has feminine pink banding around the bottle. The fragrance notes are:- Bergamot, Sicilian Orange, Raspberry, Fig Leaves, Lily of the Valley, Liquorice, Strawberry, Red Fruit, Cotton Candy, Vanilla, Caramel, Musk, Wood, Powder. To me it smells really sweet, which is quite nice, but, it makes me feel sick and gives me a rotten headache because it smells too strong and like mouldy potpourri and it comes across really woody. It does stay on the skin for a long time and lingers long after, which is bad news for me really. It also makes my sister feel sick, so it's not just me! I really hoped that I would like this scent, but to me it is disgusting. I CANNOT and WILL NOT ever wear it. Rate: 0 / 5            Re-Purchase: NEVER Product Link: click here! RRP Price: £17 ...

LOOKFANTASTIC BEAUTY BOX #5 - September 2020

Last month’s box was the Sunkissed Edition and this month we have the Birthday Edition with a peach, white and gold themed box. It is LookFantastic’s sixth birthday this month. The six items inside the box should be worth over £77.00 altogether and there is an extra free gift included! Here is what I received this month:- brush works Jade Roller | £9.99 | This face roller is supposed to alleviate puffiness and tension in the face. You can use it to massage serums, moisturisers and face masks into the skin. I already own a face roller and I do use it a few times a week. I notice a slight difference when I’ve used it. I will give this one a go as it is quite different to the one I already have. This one has a smaller roller on one side that might be better for under my eyes. | Full Size - £9.99 | ESPA Pink Hair and Scalp Mud | 30ml - £5.10 | This hair mask is a mineral rich treatment mask that is supposed to deeply condition, to leave hair soft and smooth and the...
