Lipstick & Nail polish haul // Topshop

Recently I've picked up a few pieces from Topshop, I have been getting really into there lipsticks ,the packaging and the range of colours have just incised me in 

The first lipsticks I picked up were ohh la la// £8.00 which is a bright orange / Pinky colour which is quite sheer with the application , this is definitely a summer colour and really brightens the face, Along with another really summery colour is Innocent // £8.00 Which is quite a shimmery pink colour also quite sheer

I'm not usually into sheer colours and I think they wash me out and I think these were no different would definitely suit a darker skin tone.

Two that I picked up recently were Rio Rio // £8.00 , now this colour was right up my street when I picked up looked like a deep orange but after I took it home it was more of a dark red I don't know  what I was seeing in the store! but none the less red is my favourite lipstick colour and the application is just amazing.

Now the next on is a lip bullet Joyride //  £8.00 this is my favourite of all of them. On the stick it looks quite red but on application its quite a deep pink it goes on really flawless 

All lipsticks out of Topshop are currently 2 for £12.00 which is quite a bargain!

The nail polishes I got were 'All I need is aniseed' & 'Lost for words' both pinks , the All I need is aniseed is a deep pink with great application throne thing I was impressed by were how quickly they dried , this colour only needed one coat and it was good to good so this is great if you were in a rush , The same couldn't be said for Lost for words, a very pale pink that is sheer I had to put on three coats of this to get the desired colour but when it had dried the colour was just gorgeous

These two nail polishes were £5 each

May | Mini Primark Haul

So shock horror I have another Primark Haul for you lovely people , Just a little one this time. I took a trip yesterday in Edinburgh as I was attending a spa day and as soon as I am in Edinburgh I know just t head straight to Primark and see what things I can find, I do have one in my home time but it's very limited stock.

So to get started I went straight to their beauty section as I love all their little random pieces , I had heard they sell nail polish and seen it quite a few times in hauls on you tube but never been successful in finding any except fro this little lucky trip! I picked up 2 colours , one a very neon orange ( I think I was delirious when I was thinking I would wear this ) and a pale pink , I have applied the pale pink this morning and was impressed! okay they are not blow away nail polishes but for £1 it definitely worth it , I had to do 3 coats but I don't mind with that as I usually always do that anyway but yes very impressed :) I also got an eyebrow pencil in medium I already own one but it's getting very small so I thought I would get another , I find these brow pencils perfect they have a little spoolie on the end to brush through your brows and the pencil is very creamy , this was £1.50 I think!! i not it was £1 so great value 

Next time was this tote bag \ canvas bag thingy ma bobber! there was no real reason to this purchase just thought it was quite sweet and would be perfect for keeping my junk in! Luckily this came in very handy as when I left the store there was heavy heavy rain and Primark 'lovely paper bags' just fell through and everything was on the floor but I just used this for the rest of my journey unfortunately not really going well with my outfit but when needs must!! 

another little random pick up was the accessory hanger , now being quite honest I have been looking for one for quite a while!! I can't explain how much I hate trying to store necklaces I just can't and this would be absolutely perfect , not more trying to detangle them before I leave the house!! this was only £2 

My last little purchase was my shoes / sandals / i'm not quite sure . I have been spotting these for a while and never really sure if I wanted them , I'm always searching for some open shoes for the summer , there is nothing worse then closed shoes on a warm day and I thought well I'll take them home and pair them with some outfits and if it doesn't work I'll just return! I am yet to do so but I might make a post of the outfits I pair them with when I do!

These were only £8

Well that is it for my little mini Primark haul!

Stripped & cat fake nails

On my trip into Primark the other day (yet again) to buy some boots I came across their whole new collection of fake nails, some questionable but some just dam cute, Mainly these cat and polka dot ones and soon as I set my eyes on them I wanted them and only £1 you can't go a miss I actually applied these this morning! I thought the stripped ones as well was adorable and nice to just finish off an outfit without the fiddle of doing it yourself!

I'm a sucker for fake nails due to my failure to grow my own nails but these have just taken my nail obsession  further I'm sure i'll be returning for more



Both sets were £1
