Superdrug haul:

Yup I'm back with the Superdurg haul I mentioned in my last post. Lets dive straight in, no time like the present.

• So I picked up a mixture of things including basic everyday things. I got the Bic twin lady shavers, they are cheap and cheerful and work really well. They are cute colours also.
•  Plump it up dry shampoo by VO5, I need dry shampoo its a must! I also have flat fine hair so anything that gives boost is a must. I usually get the dry backcombing spray but it wasn't on offer, this was. 
• I love the St.Ives face scrubs, so wanted to try this new olive oil face scrub, I need face scrubs.
• I came across B,Creative face kits, on offer for £9.99 instead of £14.99. I got it for light skin tones. It includes a concealer, highlighter, face powder, foundation and a application sponge. It's fab and cant wait to give it a try, I will pop some swatches down below.  
• I love Sleek, and have been eyeing up the new precious metals highlighting palette. At the time I could not justify £9.99, but now I have it. It has three velvet cream formulas and one powder. The finishes are platinum, royal gold, renaissance gold and antique bronze. It includes a brush. So excited I love highlighters. Again I will post a swatch picture somewhere below.
• And last but not least dental floss lol, because its essential. 

B.creative/Art edition vol.5/pro face kit- light. Swatches below, it's hard to see: Get here .

Just a little haul:

Hey guys! Hope you all had a fab New Year, cant believe how its flying already. I'm back with a haul for you.

You cant really see this all that well but, it's a pretty £2 necklace from Primark. It's gold with little gems  running all the way across, with a little zig zag pattern underneath. It also has a blue string plaited in with the chain. I loved it and its a bargain, a must have if you like your statement necklaces, and its not over the top.

Moving on to beauty. First up from the left is a V05 smoothly does it shine spray, which is also a heat defence product. Then the tea tree facial cleansing pads from Superdrug. I've used these for years and they were on a two for one offer. Next we have the Schwarzkopf got 2 b beach matt texturizing salt spray which I haven't tried yet. This would be perfect for summer. And last but by no means least the naturally radiant brightening renewal face mask from Superdrug.  I've used another product from this range and I love it. It does state its not for sensitive skin so I would definitely not recommend it if you do, I've used this once and I got a small rash on my face. So be careful. It's a once a week treatment and was half price.

That's all for the time being, but I do have a home-ware haul coming up shortly.

Haul:

Hey guys! I have been collecting some bits these last few days for an upcoming event.

I did some online shopping at Superdrug. First up we have a hair dye, I've gone for the same colour as last time, but wanted to try a different brand. Hopefully this will last a little longer. The colour is mango copper. 

Next I decided to try out some fake eyelashes to add a pow to my eyes, even though I have long lashes I wanted to thicken them up without 10 layers of mascara. 

I picked up my trusty foundation, Revlon colour stay, but this time I got the normal/dry rather than the oily/combo as I found it slightly drying.

Lastly I wanted a natural coloured lipstick as I'm focusing on my eyes for this special event, I don't want my lips to be overpowering. This one is by Sleek, and is called barely there. It's a sheen finish so my lips wont dry out throughout the day.

These were early birthday gifts from my Mum, as my birthday follows the event and I needed some bits and bobs to fancy myself up a bit.

So I have an apricot scrub, not the one I usually use, but will give this a go. And my usual trusty backcombing spray which doubles up as a dry shampoo.

I also wanted a body shimmer to add a bit of glamour to my skin, and I came across this one by soap and glory, It's very subtle and makes your skin smell nice with the added scent.

I've been meaning to try the seventeen falsifeye mascara so decided to give it a whirl.

Because the event goes on all day I wanted to try another primer that would make my makeup last longer without slipping and sliding around on my face, so this stay time long wear one from seventeen caught my eye. It was the last one on the shelf so it must be good (hopefully).

The theme for the day is purple so I want to incorporate purple nails, this gel effect one from seventeen should do the trick, the colour is 'pretty bang bang'.

I needed a new eyeliner, and went with the big eye liner by Maybelline with the black tip and the white tip to pop on the waterline, to make the eyes appear bigger.

And last but not least Midnight Fantasy by Britney Spears, as you know I love her scents. This was on offer in Boots for £10.99 instead of the £22 for the 30ml. Love it.

That's all for now, see you all soon I hope.

Superdrug haul:

Hey everyone, time for a haul. I haven't done one for a while as I have been watching my spending.

First up we have the Nivea body firming moisturiser with Q 10 which was on offer. Next the brilliant 1 week tooth whitening kit ( up to 4 shades lighter), I have tried one before, but as this was cheaper I was intrigued to test it out. And the B. range concealer in light, also on offer.

couldn't find the exact one I got, but this is the closet version : Firming body lotion

Light concealer

I have been wanting to try a hot cloth cleanser for a while, and when I came across this one by Superdrug on offer I thought why not? This one is the naturally radiant brightening one, they also do a vitamin E version. I usually go for the Garnier Micellar water but it wasn't on offer, so picked up this B.range one which was.

And last but not least some more perfume as I have ran out. There were others I wanted, and one's I love that were sold out, but I also love these two, and they were both bargains at £10 each, great offers! Ones hidden fantasy and the other is cosmic radiance by Britney Spears, love her scents.

Thanks for stopping by, see you all soon, 

Cosmopolitan makeup sponge review:

Hey guys, back with another quick review!

I picked this up on offer from Superdrug a while back and I've been testing it out ever since. I absolutely love it, and would not be without it now. I haven't put a new picture of it up due to it being covered in foundation lol but you can see it well enough through the packet.

• Its super easy to use
• Very quick to use, my base is sorted in no time and its less messy
• When water is added it becomes unbelievably soft and squidgy + larger
• I use this mainly with the 3 in 1 max factor foundation and it looks perfect, its the best foundation to use it with that I have tried. It definitely provides an airbrush finish when used with that particular foundation. I think its due to the texture of the foundation as its light and has a more liquid consistency. 
• I just pop some foundation on my hand, dab the large bottom end onto it, and dab it allover my face. The pointy end is good for applying foundation around the nose, and concealer around the eye area
• I will be buying this again definitely and would recommend. 9/10.

That's all for this review, let me know if you have used this sponge and your thoughts on it, 

Superdrug haul:

I'm back already, I have a Superdrug haul this time. Lets get straight into it!

As I was taking the picture the little white tub rolled, but its just the Superdrug coconut oil. I have used this before and loved it. I ran out a while ago. I use this on my hair mainly as an overnight treatment. I have a problem with hair fallout and slow hair growth. This helps a lot in my personal experience. It may not work for others, but it did for me. It stops my hair falling out as much and I noticed my hair grew a little quicker when I worked this into my roots (massaging the area) around two-three times a week. It can be messy, and take a while to wash out but I think its worth it. I absolutely love it. I will never go back. Link here: Superdrug coconut oil

I've used the Batiste dry shampoo XXL volume in the past (when I was blonde) so thought I'd try it out with darker hair, and it definitely did give me an oomph in the past along with livening the hair up in between washes. Link here: XXL dry shampoo

Blend perfection foundation sponge by cosmopolitan-I've used a few cheapish versions of these sponges before, and saw this one on offer and thought I'd give it a go. It wasn't too expensive anyway, but the offer price really attracted me to it. Link here: Cosmopolitan blend perfection sponge

I've been obsessed with skincare for a while now, even more so in the past year or two. I've been wanting to try a face oil for some time, and I saw this one by Superdrug's B. range. This is a little bit pricey, but it was on offer so I had to have it. Although this product is stated for people in their 30's and 40's I saw no reason why I couldn't give it a whirl. This one is the B.replenished antioxidant boost which includes vitamin E and C, Rosehip oil, Argan oil, and Crambe seed oil. I think I am going to enjoy this tremendously as I've applied it once before going to sleep and I noticed my skin looked a little bit brighter. Hopefully this will bring good results. Link here: B.Replenished facial oil

I also purchased the Manuka Doctor age defying eye cream. This has Manuka honey and purified bee venom. I am looking forward to trying this out. Link here: Manuka Doctor eye cream

Last but not least I thought I would include a lip balm from Primark. Its £1 and I got it in pineapple flavour. I was pleasantly surprised after one application, I struggle with dry lips most of the time no matter what I do. I applied this once and about an hour or so later I noticed my lips were a lot less dry after it wore off.  Amazing for a really for a cheap lip balm.

That's all for now, have you tried any of these products? did you have good experiences? see you all soon,

NYX haul:

Hello. I was looking on the NYX website and came across a sale/clearance, so I didn't see the harm in indulging. I didn't order too much, just three items. I controlled myself, because lets face it its easy to go overboard when you see the word 'sale' in red!

swatches of the blush and lipstick!

I got the Haute Jersey leopard couture set, and I absolutely love it! I was instantly attracted to it because I love leopard print, and the inside doesn't let it down, looks so much better in person. It includes 24 eyeshadow's-a variety of pretty colours, four little applicators, two mirrors (which I covered up because of the reflection), two lipglosses, four bronzers, and two blushers. I've used it a few times, so its still pretty much unused, but I'm excited to carry on using it and experimenting with the colours. It was £15 but I got it for £10, its being discontinued, and I'm glad I nabbed it before then. Would recommend. Link here: Haute Jersey Leopard couture set

I also picked up a stick blush in Tulip, which looks scary at first (as I'm quite pale) but it applied lovely once spread out and blended. I chose this colour in case the paler colours didn't have much colour payoff, but this shade is perfect. I've been enjoying this since it arrived on monday, thought I'd start using blush like this again, instead of powder . This wasn't on sale, so this is available any time. Link here: Stick blush

Last but not least the diamond sparkle lipstick. This is also in the clearance to be discontinued. I picked it up in 'sparkling nude' as I fancied a more natural coloured lipstick, as I tend to steer towards a lot of bright colours. This is different to how I expected it to look, its way more frosty looking, I expected it to have some shimmer, but not a frosty finish. Its not an everyday look really, well not for me anyway, so I will wear it on nights out etc if I'm wearing dark smokey eyes and want the focus to be on them. Not sure if the finish suits me, but I'll give it a whirl. Ignore the chipped nails btw. Link here: Diamond sparkle lipstick

There are many many items I would love to purchase from there, I have a few things in mind. Let me know if you have tried these products and what you think of them.

Next up I have another haul, see you then,

Makeup storage:

Heylo! Months ago I ordered a wooden storage container for my makeup. I kept getting letters and emails saying it was going to be 2 weeks late, then another 2 weeks were added on top etc. So I finally got it a few days ago. I put a few makeup/haircare/skincare inside the little compartments so you can see it in its full glory. I haven't decided what else to put in it yet, but I will do soon. Right now its in my bathroom, but I may move it to my bedroom once its decorated (hopefully soon).

Its white and made from very light wood. I got it for around £19.95 but the original price was around £29.95. The website I ordered from is called house of bath. I wasn't impressed with how long it took, and I'm glad I got it on offer as the usual price seems a bit pricey for the quality. I think its back to the higher price now. It is nice though, and very handy to have for extra storage, definitely nice to put on show.

That's all for today, I have some reviews coming up shortly,

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 =],

Twitter:

Hello everyone! I have had a Twitter set up since sometime around January 2013, but never used it! I thought it would be a great idea to use it combined with my blog, follow and chat to other beauty bloggers (or anyone interested in beauty in general). Its taken me a while to use this Twitter, and its about time too..

I will also be putting healthy eating ideas on (like Iv'e touched on, on my blog here and there) lots of pics etc =]...maybe some exercise based posts too!

My twitter is @xxLazerlipsxx , feel free to follow me and I will follow you back =D,

Avon supershock mascara review:

Hey you! I'm back with another review.

 

Ignore my unplucked eyebrows (pesky things), just quickly snapped a pic for you guys so you can see the results! This is after a few coats, most of the time I'll spend longer applying it.

I got this in that party gift set I purchased a little while ago, but I have used it a lot in the past. Here are my personal thoughts on the product:

• Works better after its been open a month or so in my opinion, seems to thicken slightly making it grip the lashes better and coat them even more.
• Its definitely a buildable mascara as you can create a natural look with this or build it up for more drama, which is something I like to do, I love dramatic lashes. I get the most from it when I build it up. 
• It separates lashes well, doesn't get too clumpy at all, but if it does its easy to correct.
• Its good for both length and volume if you build it up. Although I do have long lashes naturally my tips are blonde so lashings of this is a must!
• The brush is rather big and bulky, but I don't have any problems when using it.
• I love it, this gets an 8/10 from me.

see you all soon with more reviews,
