Review: EOS Berry Blossom Hand Lotion

As mentioned in my Florida Haul blog post, I had no idea EOS had other products other than their well known lip balms so when I came across this hand lotion, I was really excited to try it!

Summer Time Sadness - Summer Wishlist

Gooooood afternoon! Over the past few days it has been so sunny here in Scotland and actually really warm so it has totally been getting me in the mood for Summer!!! 
Summer is definitely my favourite season of the year as I just love wakening up with the sun shining through the curtains and love sitting out in it catching some rays! 
The one thing that I love most about it is wearing Summery clothes so I thought why not make a wish list with some summary items that I want for this Summer :)

Nail Polish Haul

Hello! I hope you have all had a lovely Monday and it's not been too much of a drag for you. Over the past few weeks my work (Tesco) have been reducing some of the make-up as they are getting rid of the old stuff to make room for new make-up. Do you want the good or bad news first? Okay I'll give you the bad news first. 

The bad news is that the BarryM make-up stand is being replaced *tear starts to roll down cheek*. The good news is all the BarryM make-up including nail polishes were all reduced!! I went freaking crazy when I noticed it!! All gelly, matte, silk and the aquamarine polishes were all down to £1.99 each and all nail paint, glitters, top coats and base coats were all down to £1.49, with the odd ones at only 74p! I couldn't believe my eye balls! So I did go a bit crazy and bought a lot but it wasn't all at once.

• Raspberry
• Berry
• Strawberry

• Pink Saphire

From left to right:

• Espresso
• Miami
• Copa Cobana
• Waikiki
• Malibu

From left to right:

• Plum
• Passion Fruit
• Blueberry
• Lychee

• Pacific
• Mediterranean

I also had a quick look in TK Maxx to see if they had any bargains and I managed to get two Ciaté nail polishes reduced to only £2.00! The pink one only has a spillage of another nail polish on it's bow and I don't know what's wrong with the green one. The green one is very bright but since it was around Halloween at the time I thought it was very appropriate and for £2.00 it's a bargain! The only annoying thing is the labels are stuck on and I can't get them off properly but never mind :).

Review: Herbal Essences Rose Dry Shampoo

As I said in one of my previous posts here is my review of the new Herbal Essences Dry Shampoo. I have only used the rose scented one so far and to be quite honest I'm not really excited about it. 

I was at first when I found out Herbal Essences had brought out their own range of dry shampoos....that's why I bought all 3 fragrances. I had really high hopes for this one but to be honest I hate the scent of it. Out of all 3 the citrus one definitely smells the best so maybe I should've used that one first. The one thing that is good about it is it doesn't leave a white powder on your hair like the Batiste ones do however I feel this one makes your hair feel greasy so then I get paranoid my hair looks greasy.

This retails normally at £2.99 for 180ml which I think is ok I suppose however I purchased them all for £1.99 as they were on special offer at the time.

Also!...after only using it a few times the cap broke so I couldn't get the product to spray. Maybe it was just a faulty one but I wasn't very impressed!

I'm gonna give the other two a chance but wont be using this one again unless I'm in desperate need of it and run out of the others.

Pros:

• Doesn't leave white powder on your hair.
• Packaging looks great.

Cons:

• Made my hair feel greasy.
• Scent isn't my cup of tea.
• Cap broke after only using it a few times.
• Bit on the pricey side for a dry shampoo.

New Herbal Essences Dry Shampoo

                                  

Hello my lovelies! Todays post is about Herbal Essences new dry shampoo collection. I love dry shampoo as I don't like to wash my hair every day as it's not good for it so when I found Batiste dry shampoo I fell in love and bought like 6 bottles of it to keep me stocked up haha! When I saw that Herbal Essences had brought out their own range I was intrigued right away! I'm getting a bit fed up of Batistes one now so want a bit of a change.

The three products from left to right are Ignite my colour with a rose scent, Naked dry shampoo and Uplifting volume with a citrus scent. 

I'm excited to try these so keep an eye out for a review :) xoxo

Magazine Freebie #5

                          

First of all I want to thank every single one of you who follow and read my blog. I received an e-mail last night from bloglovin saying it had reached 700 followers! That is crazy! 
Anyways....this post is one of my faves to do and sorry it's a bit late this month! Every month I run to the magazine aisle in the supermarket to see what freebies are in the magazines! This months was a good one!
This is the October edition of Cosmopolitan magazine with Rochelle from The Saturdays on the front and inside you receive a mini ORLY nail polish free! The magazine itself wasn't on offer this time so was £3.80 but I didn't mind about that because for a really good nail polish that's great!
There is 4 colours to grab but this one was my fave. It's a bright neon pink and is called "Passion Fruit". I haven't tried this on my nails yet but cannot wait to!

Have you found any good bargains recently free with magazines? Let me know in the comments :) xoxo

Yankee Candle Shade And Tray Set

                       

Hey! Hope you're all having a lovely Sunday and had a nice weekend. I treated myself this weekend.....well I treated my home haha! I looooove Yankee Candles but think they are expensive. I was in town shopping and noticed there was a Yankee Candle shop! As all the other shops had sales on I thought I'd have a nosy to see if I could grab a bargain. 

There I was, just sniffing all the different candles adding more and more to wish list when I came across the most cute little ensemble ever!

I am heart anything daft and my house is full of them! I just love all the heart decorations that are everywhere at the moment so I couldn't resist buying this! It's a little tray and shade with hearts cut out on them. You place a jar on the tray and then place the shade on top of the jar. 

It comes in two sizes, big and small, big for the large jars and small for the smaller jars. I went for the small option.

The tray was £5.99 and the shade £7.99 which I thought was quite reasonable. Then it was time for the hard part....choosing the candle to go with it.

I had narrowed it down to this one and the Black Cherry one. I love the smell of the black cherry candle but thought since my mum had it I would go for Summer Scoop. It literally smells like strawberry ice cream! Who doesn't love strawberry ice cream?!

This one was also on sale from £8 something to £6 something, so it wasn't much of a sale but it was better than paying full price I guess :)

Do you have a fave Yankee Candle?

50 Years Of Superdrug

                      

Hey! Another nail polish post I'm sorry but I couldn't resist showing you what I got! Superdrug are celebrating 50 years of being open and have some limited edition products for it....one being a new nail polish from BarryM! I saw this on someones blog and had to get it as it's so gorgeous! It's pink and has bits of glitter in it! I've already tried this and feel it's going to go gloopy quite quickly as do any of the other glitter ones from BarryM but hey ho. I went to get this but of course...I can't go to the BarryM counter and only get 1 nail polish, especially when they've got the 3 for 2 deal on....it's just too hard to resist! I have a problem I know! 

OMG THUNDER!!!....Sorry about that I hate thunder :(

Back to the post....So yeah I couldn't decide which other 2 to go for so picked up the other 2 polishes from the Silk collection which I didn't get, so now my collection is complete :D 

             

                          Truffle           Meadow            Birthday Superdrug

If you're planning on getting the Birthday one then I'd get it now as I can see this selling out as it's soooooo pretty! If you're interested in the other colours in the Silk collection then just click the link :). If you've tried any of these colours I'd love to know what you think! xoxo

Magazine Freebie #3

                              

Hey! I've found another complete bargain guys!! Instyle magazine (June edition) are giving a free full size Nails Inc nail polish in 3 different colours! If you don't know, Nails Inc polishes are £11 each which are expensive to me so when magazines are giving them away for so cheap I snap them right up! I got the magazine in Tesco which is £2.50 which is exclusive to Tesco so I think it's about £3.90 anywhere else. I only picked up one to start with but thought "this is far too good to pass on" so I went and got the other 2 today! :) So what is worth £33 for all 3 I got them for £7.50....BARGAIN!!

The colours that are included are:

                         

                   Copacabana Coral      Sao Paulo Streets      Sugarloaf Sunset

                 

My favourite one is the pink one it's gorgeeeeee! If you want to get these I would get them quick as I just know these will probably go fast!

Magazine Freebie #2

Gorgeous Heart Shaped Wall Mount

Hiya! Just a quick post today to show off my new bargain find from B&M. I saw this on Becca's blog, who is one of my fave YouTubers, and I fell in love with it! I was so shocked when I found out where it was from as it looks like something you would find in the Next Home department. This was only £14.99 which I think is amazing! I love all the different little departments in it which I just put some of my favourite nail polishes on them and some perfumes. I also got the Katy Perry 'Purr' perfume from B&M which was also another bargain at just £5! It is only a 15ml bottle but it's perfect for throwing in my bag.

New Look Wish List

              
1. Black Crepe Wrap Shorts - £17.99. These are so nice and come in lots of different colours...I want them all!
2. Mint Green Lace Panel Cut Out Back Playsuit - £27.99. This is such a nice playsuit and the back is lovely with the lace. Great for the price too!
3. Neon Pink Lace Mesh Trim Push Up Bra - £9.99. Amazing pink lace bra which also comes in a neon aqua blue. 
4. Pink Block Heel Jelly Sandals - £14.99. I think these sandals look so cute but I don't think I could pull them off! I'll just keep wishing for a pair as I can't see me buying these. Price is so cheap!
5. Kelly Brook Dark Pink Nail Polish - £2.99. Kelly Brook has her own clothing line in New Look (bras being the main product) and she also does nail polishes. I've had my eyes on these for a while so might just have to cave and try one! This colour is gorge!
6. Light Grey Strappy Peep Toe Platform Wedges - £19.99. I love wearing wedges ever since I tried some and would never go back to wearing a heel. On nights out ALWAYS end up complaining of sore feet which ends up cutting the night short and going home. These would be perfect as they are not high at all but still look amazing! These also come in black...I need these!!
7. Pink Mini Sports Watch - £9.99. I have this watch in Mint Green and love it! I've heard they do lots of colours but I could only find this pink one. I wouldn't say it was a "sports" watch though. 

Hope you enjoyed

That's so overrated!

                      

Hey! I've decided to do a post on 2 items I bought which I think were so overrated! I bought them because there was a huge hype about how amazing they are and so I wanted to try them out for myself.

I was so so disappointed as I thought these didn't live up to the expectations I had.

Maybeline Babylips - Don't get me wrong, these look amazing, the packaging is so cool and I love the colours, however I just felt they didn't make my lips feel any different to a normal lip balm. I also think these are expensive for what they are.

Body Shop Lip Butters - These are worse! These make my lips feel horrible! I feel the butter doesn't spread easily which leaves lumps of product on my lips. The smell however is soooooo goooood in each one! 

I would love to know what you think of these products if you've tried them?

BarryM Silk Nail Polish Colletion

Happy Friday everyone! :D Instead of packing I did a bit of shopping.....oops! I went into Superdrug and went straight the the BarryM cabinet which I knew was going to be a bad idea. They had a deal on as usual which was buy any 2 nail polishes from the £3.99 range and get them both for £6.00. I would have preferred their usual 3 for 2 deal as I could have got the whole silk collection but I just couldn't bring myself to buying all 6 of them so went for the 4 that stood out the most to me. I know this post has been done by loads of bloggers but I thought I'd share my opinions on them :)

I went for:

 

                                Blossom                                                           Pearl

  

                                        Heather                                                               Mist

Each of these colours are gorrrrrgeous!  I found it so difficult to choose my 4 but I'm so happy with my choices! My favourite has got to be Pearl. It's a gorgeous white. I went for this because I don't have a while polish and I love the finish of this. It reminds me of a wedding. I think I would use this for an accent nail and pair it one of the other colours. As for the other colours I love pastel colours so these are just absolutely gorgeous to me! 

Have you tried any of these colours or the other two from the collection? Let me know what you think of them :) xoxo

P.s Just realised this is my 100th post yey!

Primark's New Nail Polish Collection - P.S.

Hey guys! Another nail polish post I'm afraid....just can't seem to get enough of them. I've noticed that Primark have brought out a new line of products called P.S which I'm not sure what it stands for but they have renamed all their beauty products with this name. I've also noticed that most of the products packaging have changed and I think it looks way better, nail polishes being one them. Instead of the packs of 4 polishes (which are still available) you can now buy them individually. They cost £1.00 each which is a bargain and I think you get more in them. They are also in square bottles which I think is way better. Here are a few that I have bought :)

   

   

   

Pros: 

• Cheap as chips
• Great range of colours
• Smell isn't too strong
• Size of bottle is good size

Cons:

• Chip very easily.....they are good for if you want to quickly paint your nail for the day and that day only.

Hope you enjoyed :) xoxo
