Boots haul:

Hello! I nipped into Boots earlier and picked up some things I needed/wanted.



  • I ran out of my Garnier Micellar water last week, it lasted me three months which is great! I got the last one off the shelf, lucky me!
  •  I misplaced my nail polish remover so just picked up this cheap one from there for £1. 
  • For some time I've been eyeing up peaches and clean by Soap and Glory (deep purifying cleanser), and with  few quid off, I was like yep I'm having that!
  • The last remaining Rimmel powder I've been using smashed up into tiny pieces (really hate that) they didn't really have any I wanted. I tend to go for the Maybelline, collection or Rimmel powders as they all do a good job. I have used Boots natural collection before, and because I'm trying to budget I picked their version up for around £1.99, it did a good job when I used it in the past.
  • And finally I picked up another gelly hi-shine nail paint by Barry M in Green Berry. I love these, and this is a very summer colour. I'm actually painting my nails with it right now.

That's all for today, I am now officially broke until payday =],

Garnier Micellar cleansing water:

Hey there, fancy seeing you here! I'm back with the Micellar water review.


So a while back you saw that I tried out the L'Oreal Micellar water. I saw that Garnier also had a version, which had more product for cheaper. Naturally I had to try it out being the bargain that it is. I've always liked Garnier products.


About the product:
  • the bottle contains 400ml which is meant to give you up to 200 uses
  • suitable for sensitive skin
  • can be used on face, eyes and lips
  • it contains no perfume and is hypoallergenic
  • its dermatologically and ophthalmologically tested
  • its an easy and effective way to remove makeup and impurities 
  • soothes and hydrates the skin
  • you don't need to rinse the product off
  • the solution works like a magnet which capture and lift away dirt
  • no need to rub harshly on the skin
  • suitable for all skin types

Here are my thoughts on the product:
  • There's not really any difference between this one and the L'Oreal one
  • you get more for your money. Definitely prefer the larger bottle
  • it removes makeup and impurities
  • has a lovely tingly feeling on the skin leaving it refreshed
  • feels nice & gentle on the skin and makes you feel squeaky clean
  • if your patient and let the cotton pad rest over your eyes for a few seconds before wiping, it makes it easier to get it off. Takes a few attempt's for me (to get all traces), but its really effective compared to other eye makeup removers I've tried. No need to rub dramatically and tug on the delicate eye area.
  • I found the L'Oreal version comes out the bottle much quicker, whereas you can get more control from the Garnier bottle
  • again there's no scent to it
  • I prefer to have an all in one makeup remover as its just easy and quick to use, there's no messing around
  • I will be sticking to this one due to the size and price
  • I would rate this 10/10, its fab

Thanks for stopping by, and I shall be returning shortly with another review

Beauty haul:

Hey guys! I've been away for a few days (on a little break/getaway) and I'm back with some goodies! I couldn't help but splurge a bit..



So I popped into Superdrug and Boots, and decided I'd treat myself (why not? lol).

  • As you know I've recently tried the L'Oreal micellar water, so I wanted to try the Garnier version as this has twice as much product for the price! Stay tuned for a review on that very soon.
  • I purchased the tangle teezer after years of debate as at around £10 I kept giving it a miss, but its better late than never eh! 
  • I came across the so matte perfect stay by miss sporty, as I have used products before and really liked them. At £3.49 this is an absolute steal (we all know how much foundations can cost). 
  • Also picked up the miss sporty studio lash eye liner which I'm excited to try out
  • Again with the miss sporty trend I'm having, I decided to get the lash millionaire all in 1 mascara- I love love love miss sporty mascaras, so it was a must!
  • Ive tried a baby lips before in pink punch, so I thought I'd try another in peach kiss
  • for a while I've been wanting to try the Rimmel apocalips lip lacquer, so I picked it up in big bang
  • sticking with the lip theme I thought I'd give MUA  ago (tried a few things before) and decided on the out there plumping lip gloss in candy pink
  • and last but not least the boots tea tree and witch hazel spot wand- I love the tea tree and witch hazel range and with having spot prone skin they work a treat! 
I will review these products as soon as I feel I can give them a fair trial + reviews coming up from products I have already featured. 

See you all very soon
