Little But Expensive Shopping Spree

I went on a girly holiday to Wales... And of course we went shopping. I didn't buy too much but somehow spent lots of money. So here is my little but expensive shopping spree...

 

 

I have been searching for a bikini which fit and looked cute. Then I finally found this ! I think the pattern is very snazzy and I love the bright summery colours.  It also fits really well. I also love the extra detail between the boobs. I also have the matching bottoms. These were from Debenhams and are the Mantaray brand. I bought one from this brand a couple of years ago and its still going strong, so I didn't mind paying a bit extra for it than I usually would, there was also 20% off.

 

In Boots and Superdrug there was an offer for any 2 Revlon nail products for £8 which is a great deal considering they are usually £6.99 each. So I got the colours 130 Pocket Aces and 410 Up The Ante. I love both these colours and they are very wearable. They also stay a long time without chipping.

 

I have been wanting the Maybelline Brow Drama for ages. So I finally got it and I really like. I got it in the colour Medium Brown. It gels my eyebrows done so they don't move and makes them look thicker and slightly darker.

 

My friend has the Herbal Essences Clearly Naked Dry Shampoo and I decided to get it because I really like it. Its not chalky, it just de greases my hair. And it was on offer in Superdrug for £1.50.

 

I hope you enjoyed this short post.

Festival Essentials !

I've been to 2 festivals over the last few weeks, Soul Survivor and Y Not. So I've got a good list of some of the absolute essentials at festivals.

 

 

1). Breakfast Bars - I love the Jordan's Frusli bars.

 

2). Face Wipes - I recently discovered the 'Yes To Carrots Nourishing Cleansing Wipes', these are very similar to the Johnsons ones I mentioned in my previous post. These are definitely need to remove the grease of the day.

 

3). Baby Wipes - These are so essential to remove any mess and to freshen up. I got the classic Johnson ones.

 

4). Metallic Tattoos - These help you achieve the ultimate festival look. I got mine from Models Own.

 

5). Robinsons Squash'd - Water from festivals can sometimes taste a bit funny so adding this makes it taste a lot nicer. My favourite flavour is summer fruits.

 

6). Dry Shampoo - A couple of days in and if I hadn't showered this was definitely needed to hide the grease. The 'Aussie Miracle Dry Shampoo Aussome Volume' is ok (it smells amazing), but I prefer the 'Herbal Essences Clearly Naked Dry Shampoo'
 

7). Bleach London 'Bruised Violet' Dye - Again this adds to the festival look and I love purple ! Bleach London also do lots of other colours.
 

8). Salted Nuts - A great energy high healthy-ish snack ! My favourites are cashews and almonds.

 

9). Tangle Teezer - To get rid of bed hair.

 

10). Portable Charger - I got mine from Amazon for £10.99, it has a 8400 mAh capacity

11). Fruit Pots - To get a few vitamins whilst away.

 

12). Deoderant - This is needed to keep me smelling like I've just had a shower (even if I hadn't). I love the 'Sure Pomegranate and Lime'
 

13). BB Cream - To cover up any imperfections and make me look more alive. I love the Olay 7 effects in 1.

 

14). Waterproof Mascara - So what ever the weather my eyelashes still look long and curly. I love this Maybelline Rocket Express Volume Waterproof version is almost as good the original.

 

15). Denim Shirt - Keeps me warm but doesn't look too stupid. This shirt is from Boohoo for £20.

 

16). Shorts - I love these ones from Topshop, the Mom Ripped Black Shorts. They fit really well.

 

I hope you enjoyed this post.

July Favourites !

Hello, I have been very busy recently, so July has literally flown by ! So I only have a few favourites.

 

 

As I have been travelling a lot face wipes have been an essential, so instead of going for the simple ones I always get I decided to try the 'Johnsons Moisturising Face Wipes' as I'd heard some good stuff about them. They remove most of my makeup but struggle with waterproof mascara and they are really moisturising so I didn't need to use a moisturiser afterwards which is great as it cuts out a step !

 

As a little snack I have been loving some original digestives, they are so filling and tasty so one of my favourites !

 

As its summer I decided to do something different with my hair and add some colour. I had never properly dyed my hair before so just got Bleach London 'Bruised Violet' temporary dye . I used this on my ends (which are brown) and it gave a purple colour which looked really cool in my opinion and washed out after a couple of showers.

 

At Boots there was a sale on where everything in Neutrogena was 2 for £5, so obviously I had to get some things. I got the Neutrogena Visibly Clear Spot Stress Control Daily Foaming Wash  and another product. I absolutely love this as its very quick and easy to use. It removes all grease and makes my face feel really soft !

 

I mentioned the Rimmel 60 Seconds Super Shine by Rita Ora in 'Rain Rain Go Away'  in my previous post so obviously had to mention it here. I have wore it every day since then and I'm still loving it !

 

I bought one of the refill razors from Gillette as the (cheaper) razors I was using were not getting a close enough shave on my legs and also making them a bit rashy so thought I would  splash out on this Gillette Venus Spa one (it was half price at the coop anyway!). I've only used it a couple of times but can already see the difference.

 

I got the grey trimmed white top from Primark for £4 which is a bargain compared top how much Topshop and Newlook. I have been wearing it so much as it is simple so goes with everything !

 

Its summer so I've been wearing shorts more but my comfiest shoes are my Caterpillar Bruiser Boots so I've been rocking the shorts and boots look ! So my caterpillar boots are one of my favourites this month.

 

I hope you enjoyed this months favourites !
