Haul Time......





So I've been trying to be good recently and have a min spending ban, for nearly a month and then I was browsing on line on Sunday and before I knew it I'd just done quite a big shop , thing I find with online shopping is.... doesn't seem like real money haha.



NYX Eyeshadows in Gypsy and Sahara - I've heard such good things about Nyx shadows so decided to try a couple out and this was a NYX Duo and I've only been using them for a couple of days and so far I really like them,really pigmented and feel like velvet.

Daniel Sandler Retexturizing Primer-  I had asked on twitter what this was like, and so many people replied saying it was amazing, I had been using the Benefit Porefessional for so long and thought nothing would beat this WOW how wrong could I be? This is incredible feels like i'm applying silk to my face and the difference it makes when I'm applying my foundation is amazing.

Daniel Sandler Jumbo Jet Mascara- Needed a new one and have used this before, I love big jumbo brushes as I love the look it gives.

Daniel Sandler Watercolour Blush -  Never ever tried this before, but thought I'd give it a go, the jury is still out at the moment need to use it a bit more before I can give my real views on it.

YSL Touche Eclat-  Everyone and anyone knows this, I had one a couple of years ago and had never got round to re purchasing it so this time I did in shade 01.

Nails INC Polishes in Sweets Way Sprinkes and Paint your Pinkie-  Love both of these shades and can't wait to do NOTD posts on them, especially love the Paint Your Pinkie as it's for charity.

OPI My Very First Knockwurst - I wasn't blown away with this collection from OPI  if i'm honest but I do love a beautiful nude in the Autumn months and this is so pretty.

Thierry Mugler Womanity- This is will be in my top 5 perfumes ever, I love it, love the design of the bottle and how quirky the lid is and the smell is out of this world and last all day I swear to god it's wonderful I am no good at describing  scents at all so this is what they say 
Engaging, mysterious and unique, Womanity is full of contrast. It's built around the theme of the fig fruit, a powerful symbol of femininity, with an exceptional fig and caviar accord


 I also picked up got a lot of Elizabeth Arden skin care products but I think I will have to do a seperate post on them.
If you want anything done in more reviews just let me know.

Have you been on a shopping spree recently? what did you buy?

Avon Haul

So recently since we have moved in2 our new house i have started using Avon again, which i havnt done for a very long time and last night i got my first order through with the stuff i wanted yipee and was very excited by the large box which arrived, and here are the contents -:






The Box and the contents




Avon SuperShock Gel EyeLiner - The thing is i have been looking for ages for an amazin eyeliner pencil which is soo soft it just glides on my eye, and from the description this was the one, as soon as i got it i tried it and Yipeee its the one i can now do my upper eyelids without it clumping up etc, How odd that i spend lots on brand named eyeliners and it turns out Avons £3.50 is the one!!




Planet Spa Facial Masks - I love taking good care of my skin especially my face,i hate getting spots or my skin looking dry or patchy so i swear by face masks or packs to give your skin that much needed boost once in a while, and i saw these and thought OMG they are sooo cute, a pack of mini ones all diff kinds, you get 4 Mediterranean Olive Oil Hydrating Face Mask which is a clear one so you dont look silly ha, and leave it on for 20 mins and then rinse of in warm water and straight away i could feel the difference my skin is unbelievably soft i love it! The other ones you get in a pack are Japanese Sake and Rice Smoothing Face Mask which smells gorge yet to try it tho! And the last one is Deep Sea Mineral Mud Face Mask.










Winter Magic Shower Gel and Imagine Shower Creme - Love havin nice long showers in the dark horrible mornings and now its christmas time i love the spice kinda smell assoicated with christmas and these shower gels remind me of it, Love them i alwasy get the same ones around christmas time.








Fergie 'Outragous' Body Spray - I had read that Fergie was bringing out her own perfume just like every other celebrity and very nearly went rushing out to buy it, then saw in avon they done the body spray, so thought i would get that first which im glad i did, I like it but no way i would wear it as perfume it just right as a body spray but never a perfume








The Meanings Of Dreams Book Been wanting to get one of these books for a while now, I don'y know if i believe in what they say or anything but just very curious about them as sometimes i have the same dream maybe twice a week or something





Hope ya all keeping well! And gettin ready for Christmas! Any1 got their tree up yet? xx

Past week...........



Heeeeey Dolls :)

How rya all? Feelin festive yet,had much snow where ever u are in the world? Past week we have had about 9 inches where i live in England but not it starting too thaw out and turn to that horrible slushy crap which ya slide all over the place on! Not impressed lol.


This week i havnt really been up2 much to be honest, mainly working and getting things organised for christmas, went on a little shopping spree with my Boyfriend and got a few bits, got pair of Timberland Boots been wanting a pair for ages and these got nice pink laces so a girly touch to them, they were reduced so down to £180 which isnt too bad i think. Also got some new Bourjouis nail poilish in a dark glittery grey, a new Jodi Picoult Book 'House Rules', Wii Party Game, and some bags of Jelly Belly Jelly beans we love them hehe.






In this pic on my thumb you can see my nail polish, that is the new one i purchased this weekend, when its winter i LOVE real dark colours or nudes.

So not much more to report at min.
Hows things with you all?

So i was thinking long and hard about what my next blog could be about and thought why not do one about some of my guilty pleasures or what i sometimes have no self control over and see what all yours are? I have quite a few lol.

Shoes
Now as every girl knows you can never have enough shoes and i stand by that saying i find it so hard when I'm shopping not to buy a pair of shoes every time. Being only 5"3 i am obsessed with heels any kind of heels this season I'm loving wedges love you can wear wedges with literally anything you can dress them up and dress them down. Of course i love my trainers as well and for plain old comfort you can not beat a pair of Timberland boots. My fave shoe designer is Christian Louboutin and thought if i keep saving up then one day i will be able to afford a pair ha.....until i saw an online shop selling them with 40% off i had to do a double take and check the small print lol but nope it is true they are 40% off and i now have 2 pairs of Christian Louboutins finally whoop



These are the pictures of the two i purchased and i LOVE them, I never been that keen on animal print shoes but then saw these and i suppose it was love at first sight plus with jeans or a little black dress they look amazing with them.

Bags

Any kind of bags big,small,clutch,plain,patterned i love them all my everyday handbag is over sized i have 2 which i use everday one is a black one and the other is deep purple both i got from Next


I love how it so big yet i can find anything in there so easily. And in the evening depending on what I'm doing/going i use my clutch bags either a coloured one or plain black or cream one

CupCakes

Now like everyone i can have a sweet tooth it not so much chocolate bars anymore or sweeties but show me a cupcake and omg they are my guilty pleasure I'm sure i put an inch on my hips just by looking at them, I found the most adorable cupcake store in Kensington London called The Hummingbird Bakery and their cupcakes are delish and SO moreish i managed to get a special one when the world cup was going on which looked so pretty i really didn't wanna eat it lol till Nath said if i didn't then he would and No there was no way i was sharing it with him ha ha





Coffee
I adore coffee and in a day have at least 8cups of it which i know isn't good so i always make sure i have 4  decaffeinated cups so i don't feel too guilty or bad ha, and i have to have a Starbucks at least once a week i can not say no to their Frappucinnos even in the winter i have to have one i am slightly addicted

Books
 I can be a right book worm i love a good book to read and sometimes can read one book in a day espec in the summer where i go to the beach for a good day of sun bathing and reading i love it i take good pride in my book collection as well and have them in order of Author and categories, i think that the ocd in me coming out lol I'm the same with my DVD collection


They are just some of my weaknesses and pleasures i could of gone on and on but would of been here all night
