Quite similar, but I wanted something different to my usual pinks and reds!

 I really like the smell of this :)

 I have yet to try these!

 These are FAB!!

I put the eye make-up wipes to the test after a night wearing heavy, dark eye make-up and sure as, they removed everything nicely...

Recommend.

For information on prices and offers on these products, plus where you can get them, see my last post ;-)

Hope you are all having a good week, we are at the half-way point...it's nearly the weekend, haha :)

Another Weekend, Another Haul

Hey girlies :)

I hope you all had a fab weekend!

I spent most of mine doing what I do best, spending money that I shouldn't be spending and also walking round and round shops helping my sister find outfits for her 21st Birthday Weekend this coming weekend :)

Below is my haul...

(I've had to miss out a couple of things, which were presents for Donna and my friend Kelly, also because one thing I bought myself I also bought Kelly :) I also got a couple of things which aren't on here: eye make-up buds, a white skirt for £2 and blue tights for 50p from Primark - for Smurf costume! and I also got the pink dress from Dorothy Perkins, which I had previously mentioned wanting for Donna's Birthday)

I will follow this post with an in-depth look and swatches of the Rimmel and Kleenex goodies.

Firstly...

My new advantage card arrived :) My last one was damaged and I had about 8 receipts (£1-something) worth of receipts to reclaim points from :)

Kleenex Shine Absorbing Sheets (x50) £1.49

Boots & Lush, 2 shops I will be doing a lot of my Christmas shopping in :)

Something else exciting that I got at the weekend was my 5ml bottle of Baileys new Biscotti liquer :) Which I got for free through a campaign on Baileys Facebook page! Yum.

Oh yes...and I also met Aled from KIGH again :):):):)

I love him! Such a lovely guy :) and his voice is beautiful.

Did you do any hauling over the weekend?

Late Night Hauling :)

Hey All :)

Almost straight from work tonight my sister and I headed to Telford for some late night shopping. I didn't plan on getting anything, I was just going for 'something to do'.

BUT...as always, I saw a few things!

Tops: £2 each(!), Republic

Yes, you read that correct...these were just £2 each! Win. I don't know how I will wear the bandeau tops, but I've always liked these ones! I'm sure I will find a top to wear them under.

The original prices were (from top to bottom):

£16.99/£10

£7.99

£7.99

Bargains!

White patent loafers: £3, Primark :)

Originally priced at £10, then down to £6.

Buy 2 '17' products and get a free Femme Noir kit at Boots! Win.

So I didn't actually want anything from the 17 range, but I wanted the freebie, so I just picked up 2 random products!

Lip Liner 'Valentine' £2.59

 

Wild Metallics Eye Cream 'Wild Silver' £3.99

Now for the freebie :)

What's inside the box??

Glitter Eyeshadow 'Night Sky'

Ultimate Volume Lipgloss 'Very Berry'

Liquid Liner 'Black'

Glitter Eyeshadow 'Night Sky'

Swatches:

Hope you all had a good evening :)

I must go to bed soon, as I have to be up at 5:30am to get ready for my 2 and a half hour drive up to Barnsley for work :-( Urgh.

More Nail Love :)

Hey girlie's :)

Yesterday I posted about my H&M Hello Kitty nail varnish...which I LOVE! I kept it on today at work and got comments on how bright and pink it was :) Perfect!

However, me being me, I fancied a change this evening, and also wanted to try out the other nail varnish I got from H&M, which was also in my 'Box of Unused Products'.

On my lunch break today, I drove up to Boots at the retail park to get some supplies (nothing exciting!) and also some nail varnish remover, forgetting they don't sell the type I usually use, Elegant Touch Super Strength. Though I had switched to their Moisture Balance nail varnish remover, which I was not keen on and couldn't wait to finish! I found the smell very over-powering and the product dried out my fingers.

So, today I decided to go for a new product, Sally Hansen Strengthening Polish Remover. Well...this stuff is marvelous!! Worked really well at removing my nail varnish and it smells really nice, like flowers! Now, a couple of washes later, my fingers still smell all floral :)

Recommend.

£2.45, Boots.

Now, to the nail varnish.

As mentioned above, I decided to try out my other H&M find, Minnie Mouse nail varnish. This is a gorgeous coral/pink colour and again, as with the Hello Kitty one yesterday, this is really smooth to apply, quick drying and shiny. At just £1.99, these are a must! I got them a couple of months back, but I am sure they will still have some :) There was also a Daisy Duck nail varnish, which was a pale grey colour, and another Hello Kitty one, which was a turquoise colour.

Hope you are all having a good week. It's Wednesday, mid-week, half way to the weekend, yay!

NOTD

A little NOTD post here :)

Firstly, the nails I sported at work today...

17 'Revenge' - with flash, looks nice here!

Without flash, as previously mentioned, I am not keen on this colour, though it looks nice in the 'with flash' photo!

So, I removed Revenge this evening, after wearing all day, I needed something bright!

My nails also needed some care, so I dug out my old Sally Hansen Maximum Growth Cuticle Pen.

I covered my nails with the product and left on for around 15 minutes, before washing off, ready for my nail varnish.

Nails looking shiny and much better after use :)

Wanting some brightness, and to try a nail varnish I have yet to use (from my 'Box of Unused Products'), I picked out my Hello Kitty 'Pink Summer' nail varnish, which I got from H&M for £1.99.

Beautiful pink colour!

This is my first try of H&M nail varnishes and I must say, I am SO impressed! and for £1.99?! This product is fab. Smooth application, quick drying and a stunning colour :)

Recommend.

I have some more H&M nail varnish to try, which I will do soon and I shall report back for you all ;-)

What do you think of H&M nail vanishes?
