Oooopsie

Whilst applying for jobs I have been very well behaved in terms of spending money both when out and on the internet. But, here are the few slip ups I have made, and I most probably will  try and justify why I have bought them.

The first purchase/s were from a Body Shop party I went to about a month ago. My mum has always said to me that the sooner you start the wrinkle cream the longer you will keep wrinkles at bay, at the age of 24 this scared me a tad. I was getting a bit paranoid that I was getting lines from squinting in the sun and my mum told me a cream with Vitamin E would be perfect as it reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. So, I opted for the Vitamin E Moisture Serum and the Vitamin E Illuminating Moisture Cream.

I have only been using them for a couple of days but I can already see/feel a tremendous difference in my skin. It feels soft all the time and is no longer dry in places. It is definitely the best moisturising routine I have used. I am also loving the illuminating effect of the moisture cream.

My second purchase was also a few weeks ago. I found this jewellery seller 'Guns and Cupcakes' online and fell in love with this sideways cross necklace, so sneakily hit 'buy now' *slaps wrist*. I have always loved the necklace Sara wears, but do love this slightly different take on it.

How beautiful is the packaging!! That would of sold me on its own! You can also buy their jewellery on eBay.

Now on to my last purchase. For ages I have been coveting some good make up brushes. After watching a lot of YouTubers and reading a lot of blogs I had it in my head that I needed Sigma brushes, but then I noticed recently there has been a lot of talk about the Real Technique brushes. I came across the brushes from Samantha Chapman who is part of Pixiwoo on http://www.love-makeup.co.uk/. I noticed that you could pay by PayPal and after selling some clothes I had some money sitting in my account, which could go towards some good quality brushes :) (see, justifying).I decided to go for the Core Collection, which contains a Contour Brush, Foundation Brush, Buffing Brush, Detailing Brush and a pouch that also doubles as a stand.

The brushes arrived super quick, and I am sooooo happy with them. They are so soft and my make up applies so much better than with my old cheapy brushes. At a bargain of £18.99 for 4 brushes and the pouch/stand, you DEFINITELY can't go wrong.

Those are my 'treats' for the past 5/6 weeks, I think I have done pretty well.

Its FRIDAY :D

Pretty ting a ling

I received a pretty little parcel in the post this morning, silly me had forgotten I had ordered it so it was a lovely surprise.

I saw on other peoples blog posts that Love Suzie was closing down so I thought I would go have a nose at  the jewellery. Its such a shame they are closing, they have some lovely stuff, I could quite easily of bought it all if it wasn't for the lack of a job at the momento.

In the end I settled for a scrabble ring and the necklace named 'Ellie', it had to be done. The package was so cute and wrapped up so well I didn't want to open at first. There was also a business card enclosed with a personal note written on the back. Personal touches like that are a seller to me, I love them. Very happy with both items, currently rocking the ring :)

Anybody know of any more jewellery shops alike to Love Suzie!? I love having a browse and a cheeky purchase.

Finally Friday

Well this week has taken its time, but its finally Friday and I have finally started shifting this nasty cold. I have had it a week and its only just started lifting today, must of been after my dose of celebrity juice :p Oh how I love it.

I am so excited for this weekend. Tonight I am going out for food with some friends and to see the film 'Paul' which I am uber excited about.....I have heard good things. Tomorrow I am off to the Nottingham Belfry Spa :D its a belated birthday present and I CAN'T WAIT. The website looks so lovely :) Have to wake up tomorrow extra early as I have seen the Soap & Glory boxes are back in at Boots, so need to grab one before I spa it up... just don't know which one to go for :s

Popped to Primark last weekend and grabbed a few things, I never seem to do very well when it comes to Primark. When reading other blogs, some of you find some gorge stuff and my eyes seem to miss it when I go, but.... FINALLY I found some goodies :)

Oh and also big BIG rave for a new face wash I have just bought. I struggle to find a goodun when it comes to face wash but this one is amaze..

St Ives Apricot Scrub

...The smell is addictive and you feel so refreshed after using. It is an exfoliating face wash and you can really feel it work :) Definitely recommend.

Lots of loves
