Mini Haul

So yesterday i went to the Trafford Centre for a couple of hours and i picked up some make up items that i'm going to share with you

First of all i went to Lush as i can't walk past there without being enticed by the smell and i picked up the Bubblegum Lip Scrub. I've been eyeing this lip scrub for a while now and i finally bought it and may i just say  how divine the smell is. If you're familiar with the Snow Fairy Shower gel then you'll know what this smells like.. heaven

It's a fluorescent colour and the best part is that once you've exfoliated your lips you can lick it off and it tastes as good as it smells. I can't wait to use this lip scrub more.

Next is the Mac Mineralize Skinfinish in Soft and Gentle. I have also been eyeing this product for a while now but i have never been able to justify spending £20 on a highlighter but i felt like treating myself yesterday and it will also last a very long time.
£4.45

The colour is absaloutely and it's such a versatile product as you can use it on your cheeks bones and as eye shadow and i can defiantly feel that i'm going to get my use out of this product
£21.50

Next is the Topshop blush in 'Head Over Heels' apparently they were discontinuing this product which i wasn't happy about seen as it's such a beautiful colour and i hadn't managed to get my hands on it anywhere and i was starting to lose hope in this product until yesterday when i just popped in to see if they had it and to my surprise they had one left well i grabbed it immediately and bought it

It's a beautiful light peachy colour and it's a cream blush but finishes to a power finish. It blends beautifully and i'm so glad i got this blush
£6

Finally i was just looking in Boots not really looking for anything inperticular when my friend showed me this Rimmel London Kate Moss lipstick on '03'

It's a pink/brown nude with no shimmers and it's very creamy. I would have never have really gone for something like this but i loved the colour it left my lips with and both of us bought one.
£4.45

NOTD

I was searching through all my nail varnishes last night wondering what to wear when i came across one that i hadn't worn in a long time and may i just say how much i have missed this nail polish. It's in the shade 'Angel Wings' by Collection 2000 and i absaloutely love this colour. Not only does it apply a nice opaque colour in two coats but i have never seen a colour quite like it before. It's a very light blue with hints of grey underneath which makes for a really beautiful and unique nail colour.

I can't wait to wear this colour more often and i can feel myself getting my money's worth out of this

And the great part is that it's only £3, i can't say enough good things about this nail polish 

My Skin Care Routine

I'll start off by saying that i don't have very good skin, however this skin care routine definatly makes my skin a lot better than it would be without it
Every morning i will start off by using the Garnier deep foam wash, which is specifically made for people with problamatic skin like myself. I do love this cleanser in the morning not only to wake me up but to know that my skin is completely clean but i don't think it is as foaming as it claims to be. It lathers up slightly but not as much as i thought it would when i first bought it. However it's still an amazing product for me and it smells like cucumber!

After i thouroughly massage the product into my skin for about two minutes i rinse it off with cold water, splashing it onto my face and pat dry with a towel and instantly you can feel how clean your skin is.

It first comes out as a gel consistency but as soon as you add water and put it onto your face it starts to lather up.

I only use this next step twice a week. This product is the Benefit's 'Honey.. Snap out of it Scrub'. This scrub is amazing! Not only does it smell of marzipan but it can be used just as it for a really deep exfoliation or what i do is add water to it so it's more gentle for my sensitive skin.

This is the product when you first pump it out and as you can see it's quite a thick, creamy consistency

But as soon as you add water it lathers up and becomes more gentle. I don't think my skin would be anywhere near as good as it is now without this exfoliater. When i have massaged it into my face for a couple of minutes i wash it off with cold water and pat dry with a towel

After that i use the Lush's Tea Tree Water Toner on a cotton pad and at that onto my face so make sure all dirt has been removed from my face whilst also enriching my skin with tea tree.

After the toner and my skin has dried down a little i apply the Freederm Spot Gel on any spots or blemishes i have or in my case, quite a few and you can feel it drying out the spot instantly

After the spot gel has really sunk into my skin i finish off my routine by moisturizing with the Freederm moisturizer

It has a nice creamy consistency that really moisturizes your skin

My skin routine at night is almost the same process apart from the fact that i take off my make up with the Johnson's facial cleansing wipes so i get the majority of my make up off with them and the cleanser and toner just make sure I've got all of it off

Also insted of using my Freederm moisturizer i could the Liz Earle Skin Repair Moisturizer for normal/combination skin

It is very creamy and moisturizing and is perfect to put on just before bed

Also i don't apply my exfoliater at night just in the morning twice a week
