Mini Haul

It was my best friends birthday this week so I went up to stay with her at her uni. Whilst I was there we did the standard boots/superdrug visit where I picked up a couple of things - usually I would go mental as the Boots at her uni is MASSIVE compared to the one where I live, but I unexpectedly had to buy a new car this week so I'm a little strapped for cash!

Ok so first up is the Nails Inc glitter polish - Chelsea Square. This was £12 from boots.

It's a totally gorgeous rose colour, and so so glittery! We swatched it in the shop against the Orly equivalent which was nowhere near as good!
The pictures don't do it enough justice! I'm in love.

Next up, lipsticks! I bought the new Kate Moss Rimmel Lipstick No. 3 in boots (£5.49) and Sleek Lipstick in Peaches & Cream (£3.99).
Both are absolutely gorgeous, but if I had to pick a favourite then I would pick the Kate Moss Rimmel as it's a much more wearable shade, and the formulation is just as you would expect from Rimmel lipsticks - creamy and wonderfully pigmented. I also love the smell of Rimmel lipstick, a bit like candyfloss!
Don't get me wrong though, the Sleek lipstick is just a nice.
L - Sleek 'Peaches & Cream'. R - Kate Moss by Rimmel 03

I did try and take some pictures of the lipsticks on my lips but it's not easy to get a good picture when you've got a cold!

Hero Product - Superdrug Vitamin E Face Scrub

This is my new fave product - Superdrug's Vitamin E Face Scrub.
£1.49

I bought this after I had a facial a couple of weeks ago. The beautician told me I needed to exfoliate my face a couple of times a week as I have very dry skin, so I popped into Superdrug on my way home and picked up this one, mostly because of the price!
It smells so lovely and fresh, and leaves my skin feeling so so smooth! I've really noticed the difference already. It's mild enough to use everyday, but I just use it 2-3 times a week.

Style Steal - Big Brother Eviction Special

As I'm so obsessed with Big Brother this year, I'm going to be doing a 'style steal' for each eviction :)
1st Eviction - Sally Bercow

I wasn't really a huge fan of her outfit. I think at 41 she should be dressing more for her age and the dress doesn't really do an awful lot for her tall, slim figure. I also really hate the tights, but that may just be me as I have a hatred for clear tights!

Here's how I would re-create the look :)
Corsage One-Shoulder Dress
£30

Patent Platform Court
£19.99

Andrea Fulerton Colour Nail Polish - Jessica
£4.99
Lola Rose Agate Erica Beaded Bracelet
£66

And definately no tights! For flawless looking legs, I would either use St Tropez Wash Off Instant Glow Body Lotion or Sally Hansen Airbrush Legs.
£7.49
£10.40
