Shopping Trip Haul!

Today was one of those days where I probably spent more than I intended too! (Oooops!) Today's haul is mainly Primark but my trip into Primark did actually have a purpose so all my purchases were not just impulse purchases well not all of them anyway! I also went to Poundland, Superdrug and Tiger so I'll also be popping about them on the end so let's jump in and start with Primarni! 

First off I fell in love with this grey pleated skirt and decided that I maybe needed it and picked that up, the material is quite thick so but its also quite flowy so I figured that I could wear it now with tight and some nice boots whilst the weather is cooler and I could also wear it in the summer with some nice sandals and it was only £8 which I thought was an absolute bargain! 

I also purchased a pair of new shorts because we're going on holiday to Butlins in May and we're hoping that it might be reasonable warm so I wanted some new shorts that I would be able to wear to go for a paddle in the sea although I am currently wearing them whilst I relax and write this hehe! They're a cotton type material and they have like a lacy type detailing on them down the sides and around the bottom of the legs and they were only £4 which was such a steal! 

I also purchased a new candle..... I literally cannot go into anywhere without finding a candle that I like the smell of and buying it! (ooops!) this one is a raspberry and vanilla scent and when I smelt it, I immediately thought about burning it on a lovely summers day because the smell reminded me of ice cream! I will say though that Ben was maybe not too impressed that I have added to the ever growing collection tbh. It comes in a reasonably sized jar and was only £2. 

Now for the things that I purchased for Ollie -I did go a little bit mad here I'll admit that but we're going on holiday in May and he needed a few bits and bobs ready for our holiday! First off I picked him up some swim shorts because he hasn't been swimming for a little while and he's grown out of them so I got him these lovely red ones which came in a 2 pack and they were only £4 which is amazing value for money! I then got a few t-shirts for him ready for when we go away and I think the most I paid was £2.50 which all in all wasn't bad value for money, I also picked him up a pack of sock because Ollie is forever losing socks and I am always forever having to replace them! They were only £2.50 for a pack of five! I also picked him up a hat for the summer he doesn't really like to wear hats so I didn't want to spend too much money on hat that he probably won't wear so for £1 you can't go wrong really! 

I also picked up an few bits from superdrug I got the Garnier Beauty Oil body scrub with Argan, Macadamia, Almond and Rose oil which smells amazing and that was on offer for £1.79, I also picked up a coconut & orchid body lotion which was superdrug own brand and that was only £1.45 and then because I had purchased 2 skin care products I got a free Versace bright crystal mini! 

I hope you enjoyed my mini haul!

Beauty Haul!

I've been hauling a fair few beauty products and make-up over the last couple of weeks, So I think that it's time that I did a little beauty and make -up haul post! Hope you enjoy! 

Simple Kind to Skin Exfoliator Wipes - £2 at Morrisons
These I have actually already used and I really like them! They have a smooth side for cleansing which I tend to use just to make sure all my make - up if off of my face then I'll give my face a good going over with the exfoliating side to get rid of all the dead skin and nasties from my face! I would definitely recommend this wipes! The £2 pound that I paid was an offer price I believe so I'm not too sure on the full price. 

Garnier Moisture + Matte Oil Free Moisturiser - £1.95 on offer at Superdrug
I've also used this already too and I'm a little bit on the fence about this one, my first impression is that it does smell really nice especially since it contains Green Tea Extract and doesn't have a nasty smell or anything but then when I first put it on my face it felt a little bit greasy, I'm not sure if that's because I maybe put a little bit too much on my face I'm not too sure but I'm gonna carry on using it and see how it feels after a few more uses and come to my conclusions then. 

Gillette Satin Care with a Touch of Olay shaving gel - £1.30 on Offer at Wilko's
I've also used this product already too! I must say that I am very impressed overall, it smells so lovely and not like a normal shaving gel and it also made my legs feel so soft and moisturised and I didn't feel any need to apply anything else after I've shaved my legs like I normally do which was an added bonus! 

Beauty Formula's Renewing Glorious Mud Exfoliater - £1 at Savers 
I've also already used this product and I'm not 100% sure about what I think about it. I know that it is meant to be an exfoliator but I can't but feel that it feels a little bit too gritty! I've been using it for about a week now and I've not really seen any difference in my pores or my complexion which has disappointed me slightly! 

Revolution Pressed Powder - £2 at Superdrug
I got this is the shade porcelain soft pink. At first I wasn't too sure about this straight away. I'm quite pale anyway and I often find it hard finding a shade in foundations and powders that match the colour of my skin and more often than not end up not buying from a brand because they don't do my shade, but this powder fits my skintone perfectly which I was pleasantly surprised about as I was concerned it would be too off. 

Freedom Pro Highlight - £2 at Superdrug
I also haven't used this product yet either but I am quite excited to be using it! I have however swatched this product and it is a very subtle pinky nude that isn't too dramatic on first impressions! I have only just really starting to experiment with highlighter so I'm still finding what I like and suits my skin at the moment so we shall see how this turns out! 

Nivea 3 in 1 Exfoliating Wipes - £1.45 offer price at Superdrug
I haven't used this yet and I'm still using up my simple exfoliating wipes before I move on to trying these! But I am excited to try these next, I'm trying to look after my skin a little bit better so I'm just trying to experiment and find what works well for my skin so we shall see how I feel about these.
