mini haul

Hey lovelies! Sorry for the lack of post recently, i've been busy preparing my coursework for final deadlines so i thought that today i'd do a mini haul showing you a few of the things i've brought recently, even though i'm trying to save up for my weekend in London next month. 

This has to be one of my favourite movies but i didn't seem to have it on dvd,
so when i was in hmv and saw it was only £2.99 i couldn't resist.

This is why i love taking a look in charity shops, they
have so many lovely things. Plus i felt guilty having watched
the movie and not read the book.

mua - top clear coat £1, mua - bold blue £1, models own - banana split £5.
I've only tried out banana split so far and i love it! It's a lovely creamy
yellow and it's actually quite scented for the first couple of days then
the scent dies down quite quickly.

Since my current wax tart is almost gone i went out to seek upon
another when i came across this. It has a strong scent to it but
not too overpowering, its quite sweet and to me smells exactly
like vanilla frosting.  whats not to like?

This smells divine, i love it.  It has to be one of my favourite
yankee candles at the moment.

daily skincare routine

Most of my products are Simple as i find they really make a difference to my skin.
I also use  "Love Lettuce" face mask from Lush once or twice every week.

morning:

Step 1. Kind to skin soothing facial toner. It freshens up my skin and makes it feel extra clean. It's great for sensitive skin and doesn't make you break out.

Step 2. Kind to skin hydrating light moisturiser. I love this moisturiser it really hydrates and moisturises plus it doesn't leave your face feeling slippery as it absorbs into your skin.

Step 3. Lush popcorn lip scrub. This really exfoliates my lips and leaves them feeling soft and smooth.

Step 4. Vaseline rosy lips. I use this after the lip scrub to moisturise it in, it also tints your lips a pale pink and smells flowery which i think is a bonus.

evening:

Step 1. Kind to eyes make-up remover. If I've been wearing eye shadow, mascara or something then i'll use this. It's really gentle to the skin and you don't have to rub hard or anything for the make-up to come off removing it really well.

Step 2. Kind to skin refreshing facial wash gel. It leaves my skin feeling refreshed and clean without drying it out

Step 3. Clear skin oil balancing facial scrub - It's gentle to your skin and doesn't leave it red and sore. It does what it says and helps reduce blemishes and controls shine.

Step 4. Spotless skin blackhead eliminating face scrub - This helps clear up spots and blackheads and i noticed a difference within just a few days.

Step 5. Repeat step 1 and 2 from the morning.
