Okay, so I did a LOT of shopping, but that’s okay, isn’t it? Because that means I get to show you all what ive got! Which is the best part. To make myself feel less guilty about the rather large haul your about to see I have to tell you that I saved my tips for three months to spend in duty free on the way to my holiday ( I know its still not good, but help a girl out here! Tell me im okay!) I’m not going to go totally into detail about every item because I want to review most of them once I have actually used them all and lets face it, if I gave you a full review of all these items we would be here days, weeks,years.Enough of the gibber gabber and let get into it.
Lately have been loving introducing new things into my skincare (face and body) routine and bought some new products that I’ve wanted for aggges!
– Clinique Moisture surge, this is an amazing face moisturiser which will definitely be getting a feature post soon, so if you want to find out more keep a look out. at £34.50 this is on the pricey side but if you’ve got some money saved up and after a good moisturiser definitely go for this one.
– Elizabeth Arden 8 hour cream, something I will re-purchase again and again. A thick, greasy product that I love to have in my draw for times when ive got really dry skin. £26
–Elizabeth Arden 8 hour lip cream. Along the same lines as the above but for your lips. I bought this for the flight because my lips get soso dry and I love it. Although it is pricey with a £20 price tag.
-FAB (First Aid Beauty) Ultra repair cream. I had always wanted to try a FAB product but we cant get them over here in the uk, so when I was on the plane I saw this and had to get it. Review coming soon…
This is where went a little crazy, make-up. woops.
–Estee Lauder Double Wear Foundation, heaven in a bottle. I am totally hooked on this and wish I wasn’t because of the price of this little bottle. I love a heavy coverage foundation and one that matches my skin tone. This does both! £29.50
–Benefit Lolli Tint, ive never used a tint from Benefit and when I saw the colour of this one I had to get it. £24.50
-Benefit Rockateur. Ive been after this for a while and always forgot to pick it up when I walked past the counter so I immediately put this in my basket. Gorgeous pink with gold flecks running through it. £24.50
–YSL Rouge Volupte Shine in 14, gorgeous pinky/orange colour perfect for summer hols. Again a little bit pricey at £24.00
–YSL Touche Éclat in 1. Ive bee after one of these for ages so I bit the bullet and got myself it. £25.00
–YSL Babydoll mascara, ive got a thing for mascaras so I just had to get it, even though it was £24.50
–Chanel Soleil Tan De Chanel, im a bit late in getting this but I finally got my hands on it! £32.00
–Mac Powder Blush in Bred For Beauty, brightbright pink blusher. £18
–Mac Paint Pot in Painterly, ive never used a paint pot from mac so I am very excited to get to grips with this. Expect lots of tutorials! £15.50
–Mac Mineralize Skinfinish in Soft & Gentle, a gorgeous shimmery highlighter, AMAZING. £23
–Mac Brush Cleanser, I need an on the spot brush cleaner and decided to give this a whirl. £11
I know I went a little bit crazy. But sometimes a girls allowed right? If you have any questions or have tried any of these products leave me a comment down below!

10 years agoWow, if that’s a little shopping I’d like to see what happens when you do a lot! I can’t get on with that 8 hour cream at all, but the lip balm version is fantastic.
