I felt like I needed some new make up brushes. I probably didn't, but it happened anyway! Whenever I am doing my make up in the morning, I always feel like I need more blending brushes for my eyes and I knew that Zoeva had a gorgeous set in the Rose Golden collection, but rather than the chocolate ones, I went for the Powder nude set and they are stunning! Again, they come with a matching make up bag and they are definitely worth the money at only £55 for 12 brushes. I thought that was pretty decent. On each brush, at the bottom they have 'Rose Golden' inscribed, which I think is a really pretty touch. In the set, these are the brushes:
232 - Luxe Classic Shader
142 - Concealer Buffer
322 - Brow Line
221 - Luxe Soft Crease
230 - Luxe Pencil
228 - Luxe Crease
238 - Luxe Precise Shader
310 - Spot Liner
227 - Luxe Soft Definer
235 - Contour Shader
231 - Luxe Petit Crease
325 - Luxe Brow Light
They look beautiful on my dressing table and make it a little more girly and pretty and I just love them and I definitely gravitate towards Zoeva brushes over anything else.
It is nearly Easter, so I thought I would check out the Lush Easter Collection. I have never bought any bath bombs from Lush before, but this collection smells incredible and I have heard amazing things about their bath products. Firstly, I picked up the Knot-Wrap and I have used this as a hair band and I love it. It is so adorable and I love to brighten up my outfit with this, especially seeing as in the UK it is not getting any warmer, but is staying dull!!You can also use this to wrap up any Easter gifts and it will be really cute.
So I picked up the Funny Bunny, which was 'full to the brim' with exciting and delicious smelling bath bombs.It comes wit 4 bath bombs
Hoppity Poppity - The white rabbit ... 'Drop this fantastically fizzy little bunny in the bath for a fresh, herbal bathing experience. popping candy adds a little bounce.'
Bunch of Carrots - 'Dig up the dirt on refreshing tropical bathing with this adorable trio of bubbly carrots.'
Fluffy Egg - The pink egg ... 'Pretty in Pink, this bomb smells like candyfloss. Who needs chocolate eggs.'
Dragon's Egg - 'Popping candy and swirling sparkles makes this a feast for the eyes as well as the skin.'
This bunny has actually sold out, however you can purchase all of the bath bombs included, separately. I cannot wait to use these an they smell incredible!!
Have you bought anything from the Lush Easter Collection?! What do you think?
I made a purchase online with Superdrug, mainly because in my local Superdrug, they don't stock the Make-Up Revolution range. I originally went on the site to pick up their lipsticks, but knowing me, I picked up way more than I needed to.
I don't own any crazy lipsticks, so I thought it was about time I got some. Some of these could be quite wearable, but others, not so much!! Also, I originally thought that the '100% Vamp' shade was grey, but it turned out to be a deep purple... These lipsticks are only £1, so I will definitely be picking up more of them when they come back in stock.
From Left to Right: 100% Vamp, Atomic Serpent, Depraved, Enchant, Immoral, Felony
From the Make Up revolution range I also picked up one of their eyeshadow palettes and one of their blush palettes...I have had my eye on these for ages, but they have never been in stock! The eyeshadow palette I got was the ' Ultra Professional Eyeshadow Flawless Palette', which contains 32 eyeshadows. It is a mostly neutral palette with some blues, greens and purple shades and for £8, it was worth picking up. These shadows are super pigmented as well. The blush palette I got was in 'Hot Spice', and it has 8 shades, one of which is a highlight. 4 of the shades are matte, 2 are shimmery and 2 are marble. They are all quite neutral pinks and peaches and will be great for the Spring and Summer seasons. Plus they are really pigmented and for only £6, it's a bargain. Sleek is one of my favourite brands for eyeshadows as they blend super easily, they are really pigmented and they are affordable. The one I originally wanted wasn't in stock and it was a really bright palette, so instead I picked up the limited edition palette in 'Rio Rio' and it is so pretty. I just screams summer. There is a shade in their called 'Copacabana' which looks a little bit like 'Peach Smoothie' from Makeup Geek. I am really glad I got this palette and I would definitely recommend it if you can still get hold of it. Maybelline had an offer of buy one get 2nd half price, so I picked up their gel eyeliner which I have wanted for ageeeesss and I am so excited to try it. I didn't really need anything else, so I picked up my favourite drugstore mascara, 'The Falsies' in 'Black Drama'. Finally I picked up an eye brush from the new range, exclusive to Superdrug, 'Lottie London'. It has brushes which are all coloured in pastel shades and they look really cute and they are really affordable. I got the blending brush, which I believe was only £4.99 and it is the perfect brush for applying shadow to the crease. I am so excited to try out these products and I may do a tutorial using all these fun colours later on!!
What has been your most recent purchase at the drugstore?!
So there was a sale on at 'The Body Shop'...How could I resist?! I actually made 2 purchases online. The first one, there was a 30% off sale and then the next day it upped to 40% off, so I thought why not and it didn't cost me a fortune either.
The Pink Grapefruit collection is one of my absolute favourites so I picked up another one of the body butters as I have pretty much used mine all up? I then saw that they did a hand cream in the same scent, so I bought that as well. I then picked up another Tea Tree face wash as I haven't had one In ages and I missed it. This is my favourite face wash off all time as it makes my face feel clean and I cannot recommend it enough. From the Vitamin E range I bought the face mist, which I have heard is great for setting your make up or just to refresh your face in the summer or on no make up days. It is great for all skin types. Also, I bought the eye cream, which is supposed to help reduce fine lines, puffiness and dark circles. I am hopeful that this will actually make a difference. I didn't realise they had an Aloe range, so I picked up the soothing gel, which will be great for when I get allergic reactions. It is a great range for sensitive skin as it really is a calming and soothing range. I have always wanted to pick up something from the Seaweed range, so I did a questionnaire to find out which products would be best suited to my skin and it recommended the seaweed clarifying toner. I have combination skin and this range is targeted towards combination/oily skin types. It is supposed to remove impurities and the one I use from Lush now is doing a great job, so hopefully this one will do the same. I have always been intrigued by the Camomile cleansing butter, so I bought it. I love that it is in a tin, but I haven't opened it yet because I am still trying to get through my current cleanser. But I am looking forward to using this. I finally bought the famous Honey Bronzer in the shade '2 Fair Matte'. I don't know why I never picked this up sooner as it looks like the perfect bronzer for a light bronzing on the skin. It will also be great for the summer. It is a matte formula, so there is no shine or sparkle in it, which is better for me. It also comes with a suitable sized mirror, so you can bronze on-the-go. I also bought 2 muslin cloths and a facial brush. This brush isn't too harsh and is actually quite soft. Hopefully it doesn't hurt my face. I never normally buy this much from The Body Shop, but like I said, it was really inexpensive and I would probably never buy anything full price, unless I really liked the product.
What is your favourite product from The Body Shop and what are you really intrigued to try out?!
