MUA Haul

Heyy Everyone...
I've been buying yet more make up, this girl got some serious make up buying issues going on right now. I just cant stop. 
I do have some kind of reasoning to my buying today... true signs of a shopaholic, always on hand with reasons as to why these things needed buying haha. So here it goes, my mums birthday is the end of May, now the end of May is super busy for me with a wedding, a communion and a spa weekend as well as my mums birthday so I've decided the sooner I buy her present the better because ill need all the money I can get next month. 
So in my brainwave moment I thought I know Ill go into Superdrug and buy her some MUA pallets. Now my mum is not one for high end make up, shes very much a bargain hunter and she cant get her head round how expensive some things are, she would never even step foot in Mac, and if she did she would probably have a heart attack no matter how creamy the lipstick is. Its just how her mind set is (unlike her daughter) 
Now easily my most used make up items are my Naked and Naked 2 palettes, and I've heard MUA's Undressed and Undress me too palettes are great dupes for the nakeds so I thought ill pick them up for mumsy and while I was there I obviously had to pick up a few more bits didn't i?
I wont be able to show you everything in depth and cant swatch the undress me palettes as there gifts but i'll show what I can. 

So here's everything I bought:
*Undressed Palette
*Undress me too Palette
*Merged trio eyeshadow - Theatrics
*Merged trio eyeshadow - Emotions
*Pro-Base fixing mist
*Bronzed perfection powder
*Out there plumping lip gloss - Sienna

I personally love MUA, I think they are great quality products for great prices. I've never tried their foundations or concealers but their brow kit is an everyday staple of mine and their eyeshadows are beautiful and highly pigmented. 

Here is the merged baked eyeshadow trio in Emotions. There are three beautiful shades in a warm golden, copper bronze and burgundy, that all have veins of colour running through them. Each shade has a golden sparkle to it, and even tho they are baked eyeshadows the glide on like a dream. 

This one is merged trio eyeshadows in Theatrics, this one has the same great pigmentation and consistency as the trio above but instead of a gold sparkle this has silver. I can imagine this will look great for an evening out. 

Im really loving orange lips at the moment, so when I saw this I could not resist. Its a plumping lip gloss in the shade Sienna. Im not a big fan of gloss these days but this one is really nice, not sticky nice colour pay off. It does give you the lip tingle but weather it actually makes your lips look bigger is another matter. 

Lastly is the bronzer. I have been after a bronzer that's more day friendly, so I didn't want any shimmer or sparkle. I've got the Bourjois chocolate bronzer and I love the colour I just dont like how you really need to rub and rub to get any colour (or maybe that's just mine) 

I've got the pro-base fixing mist too but there's nothing I can show you with that. I'm excited to use it and let you know what I think.  

Sooo thats all for now. Somebody please come hide my bank card from me, I really need to give it a rest now... famous last words :-p

Hope your all well,

Primark and Superdrug Haul... Yeyyyyy

Heyy Everyone..
Uh oh its that time again, I went shopping and spent more than expected.. but oh well nothing I can do bout it now ;) haha.

I actually ran out of my Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum foundation so I actually needed to buy more. When I got to Superdrug you could get 3 for 2 on all Bourjois so I picked up another foundation id never tried before and also one on their Mascaras I really liked the look of.

1 Bourjois 10 hour sleep effect foundation - shade 72 Rose Clair

1Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum Foundation - shade 53 Light Beige

1 Bourjois Elastic Mascara - Black

2 MUA Eyeliners - 1 brown, 1 black

2 MUA Blushers - 1 Shade 5, 1 Shade 6

1 MUA Nailpolish

I also picked up a few MUA goodies, I couldn't resist, and I'm actually really impressed with the blushers. They are lovely colours and go on really nice. At £1.00 each defo worth a try.

Next up Primark

I don't need another dress but when I saw this I couldn't resist. I love the colours and patterns, when I tried it on its a very clingy material but still a nice fit. Id wear it now with tights and even in the summer. One of the best things about this dress is the price - £10... would be rude not to.

As a girl who's style is very different depending on my mood, its hard to pin point what my 'style' actually is but id say most of my taste is quite girly. I love pink, sparkle, dresses, fur... so I was never even tempted by the whole Barbour/Quilted Jacket trend. That was until I saw a leopard print one in Primark ON SALE!! I tried it on and its not the most flattering thing for my shape but I do really love it for my casual days. It looks really orangey coloured in the pics but its not in person. It was £10... yes ten pounds for a coat and because its thin, it will do for even when it gets abit warmer. Can you tell I'm wishing for the summer to be here :D

 I'm not really a shirt person as much as id love to be because I do really love the look. I tried this on with the item I'm going to show you next and I just LOVE how they look. This cost £10.00.

  Ahhh im soooooo excited about these babies. I actually nabbed myself a pair of leather trousers, or faux leather probably but I don't mind. Ive been after a pair for agessss and have had to settle for the leather look leggings. I tried them on with the striped shirt above and I love the two together. I love the zip detail at the front too. They cost £16, what a bargain.

I needed a new purse desperate, so after looking at the Paul's Boutique ones, falling in love then deciding I just cant justify that money on a purse I picked up this really cute leopard print one for £4.00. The inside is bright pink too.

Ok your seeing one of my fashion guilty pleasures here. They wasn't every ones cup of tea when they were 'in' and now I don't even think they are in fashion no more and I'm still buying them. Yes I'm talking about the Harem Pants. My bf hates them and usually he does not comment on my clothes at all haha. I'm aware there weird looking, probably not that flattering but they are so god damn comfy. I really don't know what it is that keeps me buying them and wearing them. Hopefully one day I will stop haha. They cost £7.00. 

So here it is, my little guilty shopping trip, hope you enjoyed. Its taken me so long to do this post because blogger was being a royal pain in the backside, better late than never tho :)

Love

Almost at 100... WOW!!!

Heyyy everyone..
Ive now totally recovered from my tonsillitis THANK GOD, and feeling like myself once more. 
So first thing is first, im 3 followers off 100, I honestly cant believe that, its so so so amazing and it makes me so so happy. As a big mahoosive thank you I will be doing a giveaway once I reach 100, and guess what I actually have the products here im going to give away. I was too excited so decided I couldnt wait no longer. Im not going to spoil the surprise and show you them now but ill give you a little taster and say Smashbox is involved along with Stila. The products ive bought are amazing as I also picked some up for myself too (couldnt resist) and ive used them every day. 

I really want each of you to know how happy you make me and how special you all are. 

So thats the soppy bit over with now I promise :) :)

I feel like ive not blogged in agesss when really it must of been about a week ago. I went shopping today, only a small shopping trip picked up a dress and a playsuit. I also popped into Superdrug as I wanted to see the MUA pro make up but there was none there, just the regular stuff for £1 and not even very much of that. Does anyone know if you can only get the pro stuff online or is it just not available in the liverpool store??? 

Here is a quick look at the dress and playsuit I picked up. Will try get a piccy of me wearing them soon :)

So first pic is the playsuit, really liked the colours and pattern, think it would be perfect for these warm days nice and easy to wear. It cost £15

The next item is a gorgeous dress, more suitable for clubbing as its very fitted, and it has like a mesh material down the front and on the sides, reminds me of something Cheryl Cole would wear, even tho im very aware I dont have her body haha. That also cost £15

So thats all for now. Hope you liked this post, ill be back with another very soon :) 

 Big Kisses
