London: The Haul

My final London post is here :)

I was going to do this last night, following the other 2 posts, but before I knew it was 12:30am and I needed to shut down, finish watching The Big Bang Theory and get some sleep!

So, here we have what I brought home from my day out in London.

To quote Adele 'Girl Did Good', haha!

Topshop:

Tote (which was on my recent Wishlist post), £10
Adorable and so cool :)
Plus it saved me, as I put everything in there!

I found them!!!

Meadham Kirchhoff Nail Rock, £7.

and yes, I have used one of the rude ones, I'll do a post tomorrow :)

Spitalfields Market:

Oversized (the size of a single bed!!) scarf, £7.

It's pink, it's covered in zebras...it's so Me :)

Benefit:

Finally got Hervana (without my mum being with me, telling me it is too expensive!), £23.50.

I was then told that if I bought a second product I would get a free umbrella...

So, I cracked and got I'm glam...therefore I am :)

Well, I did want it at Christmas and it was reduced from £28.50 to £19.50!

 Here's the gorgeous free umbrella, which broke after 2 mins use :-(

The damage :-(

Sad Zo.

Bourjois Boutique:

Freebies and goodies :) 

 

Purchases, 4 for £14, bargain!

The goody bag and contents, great selection :)

Candy Cakes, Covent Garden:

Muffin £3.50(!)

Lolly 80p (I also bought my sister one, how nice am I?)

Absolute BEAST of a cake!

 45 minutes to spare during my train change in Birmingham, I was drawn to Selfridges and the MAC counter :) 

 

MAC Naughty Saute Lipstick, £13.50

From the new Shop MAC Cook MAC Collection

I will be doing some posts, swatches, reviews on these products very soon :)

Happy Pancake Day!!

Shrove Tuesday.

It's 10:30pm and I STILL haven't had a pancake...

London: Bourjois Boutique and Purchases *Another Pic Heavy Post*

I was pretty excited to see that on the day that I went on spontaneous trip to London, the Bourjois Boutique was happening at Beach Blanket Babylon in Shoreditch.

I made my way from Spitalfields Market to Shoreditch, bumping into 2 pink wig wearing ladies who were promoting the event and handing out flyers.

It was 30 minutes until the event started and I was told I would get one of the 50 goody bags, as there were only a few girls there at that point, more excited.

The event was held in a gallery above Beach Blanket Babylon.

Bourjois products were available, with 65% off! The deal was 2 for £9, 3 for £12, or 4 for £14.

I bought 4 products :)

On offer at the event were free manicures, nail art, hair styling and makeovers, along with live body art being done on a model, and some photographers taking photos in the corner.

I was asked if I wanted my photo taken, but declined at first.

I then had my hair styled in a wavy look.

The hair stylist used Lee Stafford heat defence (which smelt so good!), followed by an InStyler curler (which was cool, I've never seen them before!), then finishing by running her fingers through the curls to make them more wavy and sealing with some Lee Stafford hairspray.

Nice bit of free pampering :)

I then decided to have a photo taken by the photographer, Danny Higgins.

Danny was very friendly and asked me about my day, how I heard about the event and about my blog.

He then found me about 10 minutes later and showed me my photo on his iPad, after it had been uploaded to Facebook :)

I spent a total of 1 hour 30 minutes at the Bourjois Boutique, before taking my shopping list to the 'sweet shop' style area, where the girl picked the products from giant sweetie jars :)

Here's a few more photos I took at the event:

These were on my shopping list, but I decided to leave it at the last minute.

and here's what I left the event with:

Purchases.

4 for £14.

 Goody bag :)

Overall I enjoyed the Bourjois Boutique and think it was a great idea and fantastic event.

and I was so happy to have got a goody bag, aswell as picking up a free copy of Look magazine!

I hope you enjoyed my photos :)

Did you visit the Bourjois Boutique?
