Little Primark Haul, Courtesy of Mummy!

Hey everyone :)

Hope you all had a great weekend!

Yesterday me, mum and Donna went to Telford shopping. I had no money, which was totally depressing! Saw SO much I wanted (post to follow!). But, mum treated me to a few things from Primark, which I shall pay her back for when I get paid!



Ring (Same as necklace I recently bought!) £2.50

Ring, £2

Cocktail pants (with upside down print-fail!) £1.50(?)

This is random but so cute! Reminds me of something you would find abroad!
Purse necklace, £2.50


Not much would fit, but still cute! A couple of coins maybe? :)

I also got Kerrang <3 KIGH on the cover, BFMV & A7X inside <3


and a double-page Freddie Mercury poster <3


That was my little shop (thanks to mum borrowing me some pennies!).

A Tribute to America

10 years has passed since 9/11, the day that will never be forgotten.

R.I.P to all the innocent victims, and love sent to their loved ones.


I decided to do my nails as a tribute to America today, using 2 Barry M glitters.

Added to My Wish List...

Hey everyone :)

Hope you are all having a good weekend!

So money is a bit tight right now, sadly, and situations aren't great, which means I will not be able to buy much at the moment :( and today I went into town, which was totally depressing!
Why is it when you don't have money you want EVERYTHING?!

Dad had kindly helped me out, borrowing me a bit for some essentials: Dove anti-perspirant, Garnier eye make-up remover and some Lil-Lets, but that is all I could buy, along with lunch, a drink at pub (see below!!), and a bit spare to live on, which is now going to be used on going to the cinema tonight...

So, as I suffer I thought I would share some of the products that I am currently lusting over!

Soap & Glory Butter Yourself - smells amazing!

Garnier B.B. Cream Miracle Skin Perfector Light

 
L'Oreal Superliner Luminizer

L'Oreal Volume Million Lashes Luminizer mascara

Barry M Instant Nail Effects - Foil


Do you own any of these products yet or have them on your Wish List too??

and I had to share this with you...when we went to the pub earlier I had a 'Glitter Berry' J20...these are new and Limited Edition. I had no idea what it was, but it sounded amazing, turns out it is the yummiest J20 ever, cherry and red grape, with a hint of spice and....GLITTER!! It is full of gold glitter! Weird, I know, but this drink is so pretty!!



Have you tried Glitter Berry J20 yet?

Tesco Vivo Cosmetics & Prestige Lipstick

Second post of the evening, as promised :)

On Saturday I made a visit to Tesco, and whilst walking down the make-up and cosmetics aisle I was over-excited to discover a new beauty range, Vivo cosmetics.

The products looked great and were cheap, though due to my lacking funds I shouldn't have spent any money, but I had to give Vivo a try! So I chose 2 products...



Baked Bronze 'Sun Kiss', £5


Baked Shimmer Palette 'Paparazzi', £6

and now for the swatches, as you will see from the first photo (with flash) I struggled to get a good photo. And the first photo also has seemed to rotate itself!

Swatches of Paparazzi and Sun Kiss

With flash.


Without flash, under lighting.

The bronzer I found to be very light and hard to photograph (see photos below), whilst the shimmer palette is fab, great colours, and really shimmery!

There is plenty more I want from the range, when I have money I will definitely be returning to the Vivo section :)

~Prestige Lipstick~

At lunch time today I paid a visit to Boots, in search of Barry M's new Nail Effects, which sadly was not available yet. However, as always I was unable to leave the store empty handed!
I noticed a Prestige stand, which I wouldn't usually look at, but was drawn to the fact that it was almost empty of stock, then I saw the 50% off sign. I spotted 2 lipsticks that I thought were nice, one was called 'Pink Diamonds', and was a nice shimmery pink, the other was 'Peach Passion', a shimmery peachy-orange. I couldn't decide, but with help from my friend Kelly, and also the fact that I have a lot of pink lipsticks, I decided to go for 'Peach Passion'. This was reduced from £6.49 to £3.24.






Me, wearing my new Prestige 'Peach Passion' lipstick and also Vivo 'Sun Kiss' Baked Bronze (though you can't tell as my face came out so white in the photo!)
Trying to show Vivo 'Sun Kiss' Baked Bronze, you can see it a bit on here!

Have you checked out the Vivo collection at Tesco yet? If so, what do you think?

Polka Dot Nails :)

Good Evening Ladies :)

First post of 2 again tonight.

Earlier I decided to paint my nails, after a day of bare nails. I fancied something a bit different, so decided on Polka Dots :)


Products used:
17 'Woo Me'
Rio Professional Nail Art Pen (from Nail Design set)
Sally Hansen 'No More Breaks' as top coat
and the Diesel Loverdose is just there to look pretty, as I picked it up at Boots today and covered it in the stuff <3



Any other nail art fans out there??

A Recent Primark Haul

Second post of the day...
I realised just how much I have that I should blog about, so decided to make a start ;)
So here I go, firstly, a Primark mini-haul from a few weeks ago.


Replacement shoes :) I already have a pair but have worn them out a tad!
£8, look a lot more.

Espadrilles, £1 each!! I almost got all the colours but resisted! 


At first I wasn't sure as they seem to show toes quite a bit, but after wearing the green pair for just a few minutes they were fine and actually felt too big!!

This travel set I bought purely for the 3 little pots, as I have been after some for my Sleek Pout Paints (which I also still need to blog about!). Not sure what I would use the bottles for, but I am sure I will find a use for them.
This was just £1. Great for if you are going on your travels :)

That is all for now, it was a very small *I shouldn't be spending any money* haul.
More hauls to follow soon ;)

Burberry Body - FREE Sample :)

Today I received a little white box at work. I wondered what I was, as I wasn't expecting any deliveries, so it was a nice surprise to open the box and see that it was the Burberry Body sample that I requested a few weeks back :)






The bottle is 4.5ml, which is quite generous. The bottle has a little rubber stopper in it, which, as I pulled it open I got a bit of the perfume on my fingers, so I am now sat here, sniffing my fingers lol :)

The smell is gorgeous! Burberry calls it a 'sensual and feminine fragrance for women'. It certainly is.

I may consider buying in the near future, when I have money. Though it will have to join the queue of perfumes I have on my wish list...

I am not sure if the free sample is still available, but from what I can see it looks to be, so go get! All you have to do is 'Like' Burberry's Facebook page, authorise the application, then request the sample.


Has anyone else got a free sample of Burberry Body? Or know of any similar offers on??
