After lectures today, I popped out shopping, mainly to buy my mum a present for Sunday. I knew there were a few things I wanted to get myself from Superdrug and I also had to top up some of my skin care. I also went into Primark, but if you've seen any of my latest tweets, you'll know I'm not happy. To cut a long story short, I found THE shirt I had been searching high and low for only to have to go up FOUR (not exaggerating) dress sizes. I'd already gone up three and thought that the next size up would surely be the perfect fit. How wrong was I. I've just tried it on and want to scream. I might be curvy but there is no way I am anywhere near a size 20 yet this still didn't fit - Primark, sort your life out! I wont be spending my money in there anytime soon. Back to the goodies - beauty products never fail to disappoint me (unless they don't actually work...) so here's what I bought.
Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish 100ml and Liz Earle Gentle Face Exfoliator
I've been pumping the last of my C+P for a few days now, and I know that if I don't use it. I'll experience some horrific breakouts. I picked this up and also the Exfoliator which I haven't tried as I want to scrub away my winter skin. I'll let you know how I get on with it, but if it's anything like my other Liz Earle products, I'm sure it'll be great!
Loreal Super Liner 24 Hour Gel Eyeliner, Loreal Lumi Magique and Loreal Super Liner Perfect Slim
I have wanted to try Loreals liners for a while now, as everyone seems to rave about them. I took full advantage of the 3 for 2 offer in Superdrug and picked up the newest editions to the liner family.
I've never tried a gel before but have been looking into it for a while so I will give this a go. I love my MAC penultimate liner but have been looking for a high street alternative.
My Clinique highlighter/concealer completely run out this morning, so I picked up the new Loreal one to try. I've swatched it and it seems exactly the same!
Revlon Lip Butter in Sweet Tart
My most exciting product of the day. I've wanted to try these ever since the American guru's have gone mental for them. I got lucky with this as they weren't actually out on display, but I asked a shop assistant if she knew when they'd be out as they were released this week and she found them for me! I'm wearing it on my lips now and it is really pigmented and feels lovely on my lips. I'm definitely going to pick a few more of these up - hopefully they will be on a 3 for 2 or something like that.
Maybelline Colour Tattoo in On and On Bronze
A surprise buy today as I didn't even know these had launched in the UK yet, I just happened upon them whilst wandering around the make up stands. I wasn't sure which ones to get as I know the Taupe one is quite saught after in America. I went for this bronze shade as these colours bring out my blue eyes. This is going to be perfect for those days when you just want a wash of colour all over the lids and nothing more.
Now we just need the dream bouncy blushes to launch here! What high street make up launches are you looking forward to most?
Ooh really want to try the revlon lip butter x
ReplyDeleteThey are really nice! I might pick myself up a couple more tomorrow on the official release date x
Deletei am the same with primark, found some lovely shirts in there and tried them on, went up to a size 18 and gave up, couldn't even get it past my arms.... terrible.
ReplyDeleteIt's disgusting, I took the top back today and I wont be spending any money in there for a while. x
