New Beauty Bits

As I got paid on Friday (finally  - it felt like I'd been waiting forever) I took a trip to the shops to treat myself. I have been reading so many blog posts lately (procrastinating whilst I should be revising - oops) and saw so many things that I knew I had to have my hands on. However, I'm saving for my holiday and need to buy new summery clothes to go away so had to limit myself.

Superdrug had their 3 for 2 across all beauty products offer on, so how could I turn it down. So I picked up 3 items from the makeup section and the tan I use was half price so it was a must have, although I have so many bottles already, I will never stop using tan.

Also in advance, sorry for poor quality photos, they've been taken on my iPhone as I have limited time at the moment to write up blog posts.

 

 

 

 

Rimmel Stay Matte Long Lasting Pressed Powder

As I've been needing a new powder for so long I thought I'd give this one a try as I've been loving Rimmel products lately. I bought this in the lightest shade '01 - transparent' as I never like my powders being dark and do only use minimal of this so my skin doesn't look oily and shiny. I haven't tried this one yet, but will most likely do a review at some point

 

Barry M Gelly Nail Paint in Huckleberry

This is a much loved nail paint for bloggers this spring as it is a lovely pastel blue colour from Barry M's spring range. I originally wanted the pale pink 'Rose Hip' but they were unfortunately sold out, so I went for this one instead. I have a massive Barry M nail paint collection already and this will add nicely to it (I will do a blog post on this collection). I have used this and it's already on my nails, and I absolutely love it, such a perfect colour for the spring/summer.

 

Rimmel Lasting Finish Colour Rush in Rumour Has It

I was never really a fan on wearing bright lip colours, but recently I've started wearing lipsticks more often. This colour balm is similar to the shape of a crayon and goes on smoothly and lasts a long time, mines is in the shade "Rumour Has It - 220" and I love it. I have tried this out already when going out on Friday night and I love it, it doesn't leave your lips dry at all and stayed on for the entire night, I'd definitely recommend this one and I plan on purchasing more in different colours.

 

Solait Tinted Bronzing Lotion in Medium/Dark

I have previously done a blog post about this tan(here) raving about how much I love it, so won't go into detail about it. But I still adore this tan, and use it all the time and have yet to experience streaks etc with it.

 



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.
