A few goodies from New Look

I nipped into New look for a browse the other day and tried on some gorgeous embellished sandals but unsure as whether i could justify buying more shoes i decided to nip back if i decided that i had to have them.
Anyway i went back for them an hour later and they had gone which of course made me want them even more so when i got home i ordered them online.
New Look have an offer of 25% off summer shoes meaning that they cost £18.75 instead of the usual £24.99.
You get free delivery to your local store if you spend over £20 so i added a few more must haves to my basket, gorgeous sparkly earrings and friendship bracelet £3.99 buy one get one free and a cute scull paisley scarf for £2.99.
All together the whole lot came to just over £25,Bargain!

I picked them up today and i love them :)

Latest In Beauty Editors pick box June 2012




I couldn't resist ordering the Latest in Beauty Editors pick box for June 2012,having missed out on the great looking last editors pick box which promptly sold out, i was not missing this one too.

It came really quickly and i think it was great value for money.

I have already tried a few of the products but was more than happy to receive the fab Melvita products,i have tried a few of their products before and they are such great quality and feel fantastic on the skin.

The Melvita products are sooo refreshing and the rose scent is gorgeous.

The Percy and reed dry conditioner i can not really vouch for because i gave this to my daughter but i do not think that it seems that impressive by all accounts.

The Elemis body cream is great,i have not tried many Elemis products but this particular one feels lovely and moisturising as well as tightening on the skin and leaves a gorgeous glittery sheen.

Pixi lip twin is a bit tricky to use but i would not want to pay the full £12 for it :(

The little pot of MOA green balm is lovely,reminds me of Vick's vapour rub and has a multitude of uses.

The self tan mitt i found was being given away on another site which i was a bit miffed about.

All in all i love the box and it was worth the money to me

Did anyone else get the box? what did you think?

Madara ecoface deep purifying foam

I was kindly sent a full sized bottle of Madara's ecoface purifying foam to use and review.
The deep purifying foam gives a deep cleanse and removes all makeup to leave your skin feeling soft and refreshed.
I am giving an honest and true account of my views on this product.
Firstly i genuinely love the Madara brand having tried one or two of their products, i am always really happy with them and eager to try products i have not yet tried before.
I also love that their products are natural and organic.



Madara Eco Face Deep Purifying Foam 150ml
The bottle looks simple but effective and also comes in recyclable packaging.
The pump dispenser is easy to use and after a quick shake, only one pump is needed to dispense the right amount needed for my face.
The foam has a light and creamy consistency to it that feels really nice and soothing on the face,not at all drying.



I did get a little in my eyes and unlike some products this did not sting my eyes at all so very eye friendly.
After rinsing my skin feels really refreshed,revitalised and soft.
You can smell the lovely subtle rose aroma of the rose water which is also very refreshing and natural.
After a few Weeks of using this as part of my facial care routine my skin was left looking and feeling really refreshed and soft.
You only need a little each time so this product will last you a while making it great value for money.
Fantastic for all skin types especially Sensitive.
I am really enjoying using this cleanser and would recommend it for an effective, fresh but gentle deep clean.

Boot Sale Toiletries Haul

 I visited a local car boot sale this morning,there was a lot of rubbish there but i did come across a great stall that sold handmade bath products and cute little gift sets.
They are made by Sissy-Bee and i could not resist buying a selection of their great looking bath bombs/creamers.

I certainly could not resist the delicious looking cake bath creamers is a lovely citrus scent.
They also sold cute little gift sets.
A cute little bag which contained a surprise  2 vanilla ice cream bath bombs with a little ribbon and ice cream attached,lovingly wrapped in tissue paper.
The other box set i bought contained 2 deliciously scented duck bath bombs and a Divine bath creamer.
They came in the box looking professionally wrapped in tissue paper with a lovely ribbon tied around the box.

I bought another of these for my sister as her birthday will be very soon.

I cant wait to try them,they look fantastic :)


I also happened to come across some brand new body shop items in one of my favourite body shop scents 'Sweet Lemon'

  They were a bargain at only 50p each :)

Latest In Beauty CEW Box

I heard about the the Latest in beauty CEW beauty awards box and was intrigued. I knew that the last box was very popular and sold out quickly.
It contained some firm favourites of mine but also some products and names that i was eager to try.
All i needed to do was buy the Mail on Sunday newspaper and inside their magazine they would be printing a link where you could order your box.
That Sunday morning bright and early i nipped to my local shop only to be told that they had run out so frantically jumped in the car to the local supermarket where i managed to bag a copy.
Once home i went on the Internet only to see the link posted all over the Internet to said box.
All that panicking for nothing lol.
Needless to say i was straight on the site ordering the box.
A few days later it arrived.
I love it,definitely one of the best boxes that i have received so far,i will be reviewing the contents soon :)

Marie Claire 
Body shop lip/cheek stain in Bronze Glimmer

I was kindly informed this month that Marie Claire would have a free Body Shop lip and cheek stain worth £10 in a choice of two colours,Bronze Glimmer and Rose Pink
I absolutely love the body shop and thought this is an offer too good to miss.
I opted for the bronze glimmer shade as the Rose Pink looked very red in colour and i prefer something more subtle looking for the day.
The magazine costs £3.70 but is well worth the price for such a good free gift.


The shade is a lovely bronze colour that looks quite glittery on the wand applicator but once applied it is quite subtle and needs reapplication to make it look more noticeable so you can build it up to the shade you require.
It is easy to apply and surprisingly it leaves quite a stain on the lips which is a lovely pink shade.
I was surprised at how easy it stained,i have not yet used it on my cheeks though.




I love this product because of the stain there is no need to keep on reapplying, the only thing i was not too sure of though was the slight Crayon type smell but i am now used to that and it no longer bothers me.

Make sure you get out this month and bag yours it is a fantastic offer not to be missed. :)
