I couldn't restrain myself any longer and had to have a little splurge after keeping my pockets (or purse) tight! Here is what I've spent some dollar on over the past few weeks:
Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum
Ive heard a lot about this foundation from people in this beauty world and thought it would be perfect for summer and holidays (where I've just got back from one) where it proved to be the case. I like a lighter base in the summer months and this fits the brief, giving a gorgeous 'healthy' glow.
Real Techniques Expert Face Brush
I wanted this for a while but seen as i was trying to not spend much i stopped myself, until i misplaced my beloved buffing brush- i think I've left it at a friends house- and thought it was the perfect opportunity to finally buy it and so far, i love it. Sam Chapman you never let me down!
Real Techniques Blush Brush
In the same Feel Unique order i also treated myself to this brush which is another one I've wanted for a while. Its super soft and great for travelling as its multi tasking- blush/bronzer/powder, yay!
Sleek Face Contour Kit
For the third time already in this blogpost, id wanted this product for a while, repetitive i know I'm sorry. But seriously, I've used it everyday since I've got it which is just over a week. So good and so affordable, whats not to love?
Rimmel London Stay Matte Powder
Ive already got this powder but the lid had broken and so was rubbish with travelling and due to me going on holiday i thought id buy another one and so could finally take my favourite powder in my makeup bag. I got it in the transparent shade this time just so i could switch between the two depending on how my skins behaving.
Batiste Dry Shampoo- Coconut and exotic tropical
Needed another dry shampoo and thought id live life on the edge and try a different scent. Nothing much more to say with this apart from that Batiste is my favourite brand of dry shampoo.
Avon Speed Dry Nail Varnish- Sprightly Mint + Crystal Calm
Thought these both looked like really nice shades, especially Sprightly Mint for summer and were a bargain at around £2 (i think)
Simple Kind to Skin Protecting Moisture Cream
Thought id try this moisturiser as i like Simple and i love their branding of only having what is needed in their products. It also has an SPF in it which makes it great for the summer months.
H+M Denim Jacket- http://www.hm.com/gb/product/14762?article=14762-A
I've been loving all things denim at the minute and i really wanted a new, 'trendier' denim jacket as the one i previously had was ridiculously small and old and hadn't been worn for a good 3/4 years (really need to have a wardrobe sort out!). I think denim jackets can be worn to dress up or dress down an outfit, depending on what your wearing and just add a little something. They're also perfect for us British peeps, as they add a layer to an outfit in our unpredictable summer without being the heaviness of a coat.
Primark Brogues
I also popped into Primarni and picked up these really cute brogue style shoes/ pumps which are dark blue and will just go with any outfit and were only a tenner.
New Look 'Madison' shoes
These are an imitation of converses and when i saw them in New Look for only £12.99 i just had to get them. They may not be real converses and have the same quality but i love them for such a great price. I love to pair them with a dress or a more 'dressy' outfit to just make it seem more casual and give it a certain edge.
Okay, i actually spent more than i originally thought, woopsies!
