Beauty | Lush Valentines Haul

Kiss Me Quick £2
This product really drew in all my attention due to me trying to work out what it was, after asking a member of staff I was told it was to use in the shower as a body wash, just tear a chunk of lather it up and wash your body. I love the idea of this product as it would make travelling super easy and fun to do as it's lightweight and wouldn't take up any room in my was bag but also as a fun thing to use as well. With hints of floral and lemon and lime it's hard to not really like this product.

Amsterdam Haul

Last week I was mooching the streets of Amsterdam and picked up a few items from there famous Nine Streets stores, I also got to spend a whole hour in the airport duty free stores and picked up some great bargains! So here is what I brought on my recent trip to Amsterdam.

MAC
One of my favorite brands is MAC so when I go through Duty Free I always pick up a few of there items, this time I picked up a new lipstick and a new blusher. From the new Retro Matte range I picked up the To Matte With Love which is a lovely dark pink tone ideal for summer or winter, the lipstick was only £17 in the airport rather then the £21 high street price tag. I also picked up a mineralize blush in the shade Petal Power which is such a pretty coral pink tone with a gold shimmer which looks lovely on, I picked it up for £18 instead of the £22 high street price tag.

Blogmas - Day Sixteen Lush Haul

I haven't been to Lush for ages and went in to take a peak at there new Christmas range, I wasn't blown away with the product they had in store and as it was very busy I only picked up three new items but I can't wait to try them out and review them for you.

Razzle Dazzle
I'm yet to try out any of the Luxury Bath Melts but Razzle Dazzle looked to good to not pick up, this little pink ball looks rather small and not powerful but I've heard it works wonders on the skin. The scent is raspberry with hints of citrus so it's right up my street. At only £2 it's worth picking one up!

Big Bang
I was attracted to this bubble bar straight away with it's bright colours and the name Big Bang I had to pick one up, at just £3.75 it's a great product to go for. It's my favorite scent of citrus so it's a win win with this product and I can't wait to try it out.

Star Dust
Lastly I picked up a bath bomb in the shape of a lovely star and for £2.95 it's a perfect bath bomb to go for. It has a very sweet scent to it and is quite a chunky bath bomb, I can't wait to review it for you and hopefully it will be quite impressive!

Have you been wowed by any Lush products this Christmas?

January Haul 2015

Today I visited Oxford and did quite a big shop so I decided to post a haul for you! I visited Paperchase, Lush, Waterstones, HMV and Primark and got a few goodies so enjoy!

Lush
Lush have just brought out there Valentines range and I purchase 4 of the items from the range, firstly I picked up one called Floating Flower for £3.50 this is a very retro looking bath bomb with some really nice wild flower scent to it which fills the room, next up I picked up Lonely Heart for £3.50 which is a lovely little heart covered in thick glitter which is a lovely added effect, Heart Throb comes next at £3.65 which is two heart shaped bubbleroon pieces sandwiched together with some glitter, Lastly there's Unicorn for £3.25 the best bubble bar I have seen in Lush as it reminds me of My Little Pony with some lovely added stars!

Paperchase
I thought I would jump on the scrapbook making bandwagon and went into Paperchase to see what I could find, I came out with some lovely bits that I adore quite a lot. My scrapbook is a simply brown page design with a lovely purple floral design and at only £10 it's quite a bargain, To sellotape the pictures and memories to the book I brought two rolls of tape to add a nice effect to the book and to add some words I brought some washi tape as it easy to write on all three tapes cost £3 each. Lastly I picked up some amazing cat stickers for only 75p in the sale and can't wait to add them to a few pages!

Waterstones
As you know by now I'm off to New York this year so I stopped by the pick up some pop out maps and came away with two designs the one has added pages on what to do in New York and has some great tips for when your out and about that one is £6.99 and the other smaller and more compact one is just a simply map of New York cost only £3.99, I also picked up a new crime book which was recommended to me called 'The Accident' by Chris Pavone I've already began reading the book and already love it as it's so gripping and such a good read.

HMV
At the moment I can't get enough of American Tv Shows so I've added a new one to my collection in the form of 'Bates Motel' based on the film Psycho which is one of my favorites. I thought I would enjoy the series as I loved the film a lot so I can't wait to watch it and at only £19.99 it was a great bargain!

Primark
I picked up some basic t-shirt this week as I needed some for work and lounging about the house so I went for a long sleeved stripey top £3.50 and a simple black t-shirt £2.80. I also picked up some cute magnets in the sale at only 50p i'm not sure what I will do with them but there are pretty cute, I also got a travel adapter for New York at only £1.50 which is a great bargain as in most stores they charge quite a lot for a simply plug, to go with my scrapbook I picked up some sticky notes again in the sale at 50p as I thought they would look nice with little quotes and sayings on them. Lastly I picked up a lovely PJ set for £8.50 with a simple cream top but lovely bottoms I couldn't say no!

I hope you enjoyed this haul, if you have a new haul post please leave it below in the comments I would love to take a look!

Superdrug
I've been after the Tanya Burr Picnic In The Park for ages and when she said she was bringing out new products I decided to have a proper look for it as I didn't want it to leave the shelves and I would never be able to buy it, so I was happy to find it in the Princes Street Superdrug for £6.99.

Primark
I've saved the best till last =] , I was after a new winter coat and found a lovely blue one which reminded me of Paddington Bear so I picked it up for £18! a complete bargain.
