Yet Another Haul // ASOS

ASOS is my all time favourite shop, so when they have offers on for a limited time I always have to grab something. Although now I've banned myself, which is proving difficult as I have another few pieces of makeup due tomorrow.

ASOS Clutch Bag with Scallop Flap
Every time I go out I always take my big Kardashian Kollection bag, but I love the idea of taking a clutch. So I decided as I have many events coming up it was time to purchase a clutch. This is the one I chose, it was only £7 and is the perfect size for going out. It also has a long strap if you decide you want to wear it over your shoulder rather than carrying it. A monochrome bag is perfect as it goes with pretty much everything and I can't wait to use it. I have attached a link but it seems to have sold out.

Monki Miracle Black Snake Zip Around Purse
When I go out I don't usually take as much with me in my purse, however the purse I use everyday is too big for a clutch. So I decided that I'd just buy a purse that I'd use when I didn't need all my cards and just some cash. This was only £4.50, such a great buy!! And most of all it fits nicely inside my new clutch.




ASOS Pug Socks
I do not even have to justify myself for these socks, they have pugs on them!! These are the cutest socks (along with my percy pig ones), I didn't even check the price before adding them to bag. And they were only £3, I may need to get myself some more!!

Rimmel London Wake Me Up Concealer
This (as well as the wake me up foundation) has been raved about on so many blogs and youtube videos so I thought I'd give it a go, seeing as it was only £4. I got it in the shade 020 and really do hope it is as good as it's made out to be.

Patisserie De Bain Lip Balm
I already have a tonne of lip balms, but this one looked so pretty and is in the flavour of 'strawberry cupcake' so couldn't say no.

Barry M Gelly Hi-Shine Nail Paint
'Rose Hip' is a colour of Barry M polish that everyone is getting, so I jumped on the bandwagon as I adore Barry M nail polishes. Unfortunately I'm apparently not allowed to wear nail varnish to work, so when I'll be able to try this out I'm unsure :(. Right now ASOS are selling these at just £3!!



 
 
 
I am waiting for another parcel but it just has another Rimmel colour balm and a new primer, not too exciting. Come by tomorrow for a review on the Rimmel Colour Balms. Have you been loving asos lately too?

On Wednesday's We Wear Pink

Everyone has went crazy with pink today as it is Mean Girls' 10th anniversary today. Personally I absolutely LOVE the film. So today I wore pink to represent one of my favourite movies. And thanks to the asos delivery woman I got to wear more pink as my new amazing coat arrived today.

I got 3 items today delivered from ASOS and wanted to share them with everyone.

First off I repurchased Benefits Bo-oing concelear in shade 02. This was recommended to me by tonnes of people and many of my friends used it, so since I love every other Benefit product I had tried I thought it was worth a shot. And everyone was completely right, Benefit got it on point again. I've been using Benefit for about 5 years now, and love every product I get. It is cream based rather than liquid, and stays on for the whole day, giving red marks and spots complete coverage. I would recommend this to everyone!

Next I thought I'd try one of the 'Rimmel London 1000 Kisses Lip Tints' as they were doing a 35% off beauty products so it was only £4. How could you say no at £4? It is double ended, one end with the lip tint with the applicator similar to a felt tip marker and the other side with a lip balm 'to moisture and gloss your lips'. I got the one in the shade '300 Perpetual Plum'.

Lastly, is the favourite thing I've possibly ever purchased. I have been looking for a pink coat forever and when the one I have been looking at went into asos's 50% of 50 items I HAD to have it. It is so so beautiful. The coat is petite exclusive and a fluffy sort of material in a pastel pink colour. Everyone needs this coat in their wardrobe.






 I finished off my day with a cheese and bacon beef burger and peri peri chips at handmade burger co, and it was absolutely amazing.

O.P.I 'Glitter' Nail Varnish Remover

I used to wear glitter nail varnish all the time, not as much anymore but still quite regularly. However, the biggest problem is getting it off. It is an absolute nightmare!!! Like wearing them would not be as bad if it was as simple to get off like normal nail varnish.
Then I came across what was named 'O.P.I Glitter Nail Varnish Remover' on ASOS and I thought my life was complete. I remember seeing it for £6 and thinking it was such a bargain, but now thinking about it £6 for nail varnish remover is kind of a joke. The actual name for it is O.P.I Expert Touch Nail Polish Remover for Glitter Nail Varnish. I have many O.P.I nail varnishes already, especially the Kardashian Kolor collection - being a big Kardashian fan - so thought it would be amazing.

After giving it a try I still do not know my final opinion on it. As when removing glitter nail varnish with this remover on cotton wool, it makes the cotton wool stick to your nail and then you can peel it off easily. However, I am unsure whether this is what it is meant to do or not. So if this is the purpose of it then I'd highly recommend it as it is a quicker method of getting glitter nail varnish off, as with other nail varnish removers I know I'm there forever trying to get it off.

I do only use this when taking off glitter nail varnish, as I use a cheaper alternative remover for normal varnishes.
