Boots & Next Haul With A Review

 Hiya guys last weekend I went shopping, I thought i would treat myself for a change because at the minute im saving up for a car. I new I wanted to buy a certain product, that's the main reason I went shopping in the first place. You girls now one we start shopping it's hard to stop spending money though, but this product I've been wanting all week since Glossybox had emailed me telling my about it so I just had to get it and when I want an item I just have to get it just can't help my self. So here are the things I got. Got to say it might not be a lot but all I can say was the price tag was, especially when your saving for a car.

BOOTS



These are Biore deep cleansing pore strips for your nose. I bought this because I have a few blackheads on my nose. This product didn't work at all for me I dunno why I wet my nose and placed this strip on and after 10-15 mins I took it off and nothing came out my nose at all it was clean. I will give these stripes another go this weekend and see if I get anything out but I'm hoping I do. Also I found that it was very painful taking them off, imagine pealing sticky tape off your skin. 

These retailed at £7.99 for 6 stripes which to me is on the pricey side that makes £1.33 per stripe. 




These are the simple radiance brightening cleansing wipes, I wanted the normal ones but they didn't have any left, so I thought my face can do with brightening up. I normally use just Tesco or Asda's own makeup wipes but I found them to burn my skin, with these they don't do that I'm in love with them but  again they are on the pricey side and I can't afford these every time these are just a luxury for me especially when I can buy them for 99p, because I just wipe my make-up off and then use my clarisonic Mia. 

These retailed at £4.20 which is pricey for wipes but when you look at it 17p per wipe is pretty good. 

Sorry about the next image I bought this product for my mum and she takes it every where she goes so this isn't an original image.


This product is a Carmex clear lip balm it comes in tint format to but as this was for my mum she didn't want one that tinted her lips. As its cold weather her lips where getting dry and sore so this was a great buy its so moisturising and lasted for up to 2 hours with out need anymore product on her lips. It smells amazing too like coconut. I would buy my self one but at the minute I'm using balmi in raspberry, it smells amazing too and that is also great on the lips and lasts for hours one of my favourite lips balms I have used. 

 Carmex lip balm retailed at £4.49
Balmi lip balm retails at £4.99 

As all these products where on offers 3 for 2 I bought the two most expensive and got the cheapest free. 

I DIDN'T BUY THE BALMI LIP BALM !

The next two items I bought where not on offer. I bought one make-up product which was this.....



This is the NEW L'Oreal Paris glam shine stain splash in the colour Lolita which is number 101. This product is amazing I love it so much and has a baby powder smell to it which you can smell when you apply it to your lips, which only last a few minutes. The applicator applies the product well and picks it up good, it stays on my lips for a good 3 to 4 hours then the shines starts to wear off . I love the packaging so high end looking. I'm wanting this product in more colours now. 

This retailed at £7.99 

Next I bought the product that I came out to buy this is an amazing product that I love and want all of them so here you all go. DRUM ROLL PLEASE GUYS!!!!!!!

......................


It's the NEW Juicy Couture La La perfume. It smells amazing, I will give you a description for what it's meant to smell like .....  

 Bright sparkling fruits blend with water hyacinth and bold white florals revealing a luminous bouquet of water lily and Miguel. The translucent dry down highlights the sensuality of smooth woods and frosted liquid musk. 

The packaging is beautiful too. I wear this to work when I'm out even when I'm just around the house, it's my go to perfume at the minute. 

This retailed at £47 for a 50 ml bottle.



NEXT



Next I went shopping at Next which is a clothes shop, I only bought one item which was a jumper. 


I saw this on the hanging at the entrance of next and just fell in love I had to buy, I couldn't even look at the price tag just picked up and went till. I love the print and that its not an extra thick jumper, even though it is spring feels more like winter but I had to get.

This retailed at £35.



Thank you for reading and talk to you all next time xx.

BeautyBay haul:- S-factor hair products and small review + extras.


Hiya guys on Thursday night I was getting bored of my hair it was getting dull and dry so I wanted to try out new products I had heard of the s-factor range which has got really good reviews, so I thought I would give them a try. I wanted to get them at the cheapest price possible so I looked around on different sites and found that BeautyBay.com was the cheapest option. I got them in the post this morning and used them straight away I used two products out of the 3 and could see a difference.
Here are the 3 products, starting with the 2 I have used so far.



This is the flat iron shine spray which is also a heat defender it smells so good smells like strawberries when I used this it made my hair shine but be careful when you use it because its a greasy product so if you don't like that sort of heat defender then this is not the product for you this retailed at £10.45 for 125ml which is 4.23fl.oz




This is the smoothing lusterizer which clams to be a defrizzer & tamer, this also smells good but more like strawberries and cream. I used this after i had straightened my hair it's a shimmery product and makes your hand shimmery after you have put the product through your hair but that's what makes your hair shinny it also does work as a defrizzer and tamer and I love this product too. This retailed at £10.45 for 200ml which is 6.76fl.oz





This is the papaya leave in moisture spray, this also smells like strawberries and cream. This is the one product I haven't used yet because to use this on wet hair. This retailed at £10.02 for 250ml which is 8.45 us fl.oz. I have good hopes for this product because I have liked the other 2.

I will give my full review next week as I haven't used these products for more then a day.

EXTRAS: this are the samples I got because I paid £1.50 extra for fast despatch.



This product is by wells professionals and a stay styled finishing spray which hold level is 3 I haven't used this product yet. The sample size was 50ml which is a really good sample size.




This is Rahul shampoo ( 10ml / 0.34 oz )and conditioner ( 8ml / 0.27 oz) another good size for free samples.

Thank you for reading and talk to you guys all later x.
