Beauty Haul


I haven't posted any real beauty posts lately so apologies there, but heres a little haul of the beauty bits I've picked up recently.


Rimmel Wake Me Up Liquid Foundation 103 'True Ivory'
Yes, it's the same foundation I've been using all year, and no, I'm probably not going to change anytime soon. I really love this foundation, it's good quality and not expensive.

Rimmel Stay Matte Pressed Powder 003 'Peach Glow'
I used this powder a few years ago and forgot about it, but I've decided to try it again and I know a lot of people like it.

L'Oreal Color Riche Eye Colour Pencil 06 'Delicate Beige'
I hadn't really considered anything other than eyeshadow before, but I saw this and loved the metallic look. Also they were on special.

Rimmel Lasting Finish by Kate Moss No. 20 'Rossetto'
My first Kate Moss lipstick. I went for something bright because I'm so often buying simple, everyday colours. It has quite a purple tone to it in real life, more than this picture shows.

Mac Powder Blush Satin 'Fleur Power'
I finally picked up this blush that I've had my eye on for so long. Mac can sell me on anything, I'm obsessed with all the packaging of all their pots and this colour is just what I wanted. 

Mac Brush 116
On my wish-list post I had mentioned wanting the 129 brush, but after careful consideration in the Mac store I decided this was the brush for me. I managed to leave Mac relatively unscathed with these to items.



I love having fresh, new products to hold, but I also have the urge to try my new things straight away, so I never have untouched products for long.
 Let me know any new beauty products you've purchased recently, your thoughts on these ones, or if you want to see a review of any of these products.

How Lush

Recently the Lush store in town got a makeover so I had to check it out! I picked up a few goodies for the bath during the cold winter and thought I'd share them. 




The Comforter Bubble Bar:

This one has a super sweet smell of berries and musk and says it will wrap me in a 'fluffy pink blanket of blackberry bubbles.'


Dragon's Egg Bath Bomb:

This smells super citrus-y like lemons, and I already know it's great. I love the gold/orange, glittery water it creates.


Brightside Bubble Bar:

The shop assistant told me this bubble bar is really nice to use with the Dragon's Egg bath bomb. It has a similar citrus smell but more like an orange.


 Tisty Tosty Bath Bomb:

This one smells, as it suggests, just like roses but also with a warm, lemon-y scent. It also has little rosebuds that float and will release a 'magical love spell!'


Creamy Candy Bubble Bar:

This one smells super sweet! Just like red frog lollies. It's supposed to make the bath water creamy for extra soft skin.



So these are all my current Lush goodies, I'm hugely excited to try them all. If you have any Lush favourites please recommend them in the comments (not just bath stuff), I would love to know which products are good.

Mini beauty/indulgence haul

This is my first haul and I thought I'd just show a couple of beauty bits I picked up recently plus some other cute items.

I've been looking for a new bronzer because I'm super pale and they're always to dark for me so I fell in love when I tried Mac's Mineralize Skinfinish Natural in Medium Dark. It work's perfectly for me as a bronzer and contour.



I couldn't help myself whilst in Mac so I also picked up this Mineralize Skinfinish highlighter in Soft and Gentle.



For the lips I got this Revlon Colourburst lip crayon because I've heard only good things about it. I chose a matte balm in the shade 205 Elusive for something I can wear day to day.



From Peter Alexander I couldn't resist my favourite Glasshouse Candle. If you're a lover of strong sweet smells I would recommend this one. Also their glass containers are great to reuse when the wax is all gone.



My first ever purchase from Lush (insane, I know) was this Phoenix Rising bath bomb. It has a spicy chai smell about it that I though was perfect for winter. I also got the Dragon's Egg bath bomb but if you saw my last post you'll see I've already used it (and I will be getting again). 



So those are just a few bits I've picked up recently and hopefully I'll be able to post more hauls soon.
