I Went Shopping!

I've done it again, I went shopping! it has been a while since I bought anything much, but I finally went out and treated myself after I handed in my assignment; and Liffey Valley is on the way home, so it had to happen!  I only picked up a few little things, but I'm still soo excited about them! 

The first thing are these 'Tea tree and witch hazel facial pore strips' - sounds delightful! I bought these to use as nose pore strips, simply because they were cheaper, and had the exact same ting written on the packet as the actual nose strips. Hopefully I won't regret doing that, but I have heard that they work amazingly well, and I've been looking for quite some time since my last ones ran out. They are Boots own brand, but are the same idea as any of the bigger named brands!  They normally cost €6.49, but I grabbed them on sale for €3.24.  I can't wait to try them out and see if they live up to all these reviews! 

The next product I picked up was a Sleek MakeUp True Colour lipstick in the shade 'exxxagerate' - a beautiful purple shade. I've been lusting after this for quite some time, and can not wait to wear it out! It only cost €5.99, and is a beaut. It is quite a small lipstick as well, so is perfect to throw in your makeup bag to bring with you!

I then found the one thing I was looking for which was the No7 MakeUp Brush Cleanser. My cousin was raving about this the last time I saw her so I had to try it! It is quite pricey at €10.50, and the vouchers we always seem to have don't work on it, as it's seen as an 'accessory'. But, in the end I'm sure it will be worth every penny!

The last thing  grabbed, was something I saw just before I left, and thank God I did! It's this Soap & Glory 'Face Massage Mini Mitt', looks a beauty. I actually picked this up with the idea that I could use it to wash my brushes, as it look quite a lot like all the ones I've seen, and is half the price. It was only €5.50, so you can't blame me for wanting to run away with the whole rack, but I better see how it works first! 

I hope y'all enjoyed this a little bit, and I'll be back really soon! I'm  only just finished exams, so it's like a mad house here! Let me know in the comments if you've tried any of this, or just say hi!

I Bought Everything! (Haul Post)

I've been on a few trips to Boots in Liffey Valley over the last week - just to look obviously! But, of course I couldn't resist the deals they had, and left with half the shop, as per usual!

Here's all the little bits I picked up; some of these are things I've been looking for for a while, and others were just spur of the moment decisions! 

So, 'Collection' had a 3 for 2 offer on in boots last week, so I could not resist!

I picked up the 'Lasting Perfection' Concealer, I've bought it befoe, and I really like it; I find it blends really well with my skintone! I use the shade 'Fair 1' - the lightest shade! Plus it's only €

I then picked up the 'Lasting Gel Nail Colour' in 'Stormy Grey 11' just to see how t would live up to the Barry M one. Now, it's not grey in any way, t's definitely a nude/brown shade, but it is beautiful.

You will need two coats of it, if you want it to really shine though - but it's definitely worth the €3.99

Finally, I grabbed their 'Work The Colour Eyebrow Kit'! It has thee different powders for filling in your brows, and a clear brow gel! Now, I've never used a bow gel before so I'm excited to see how this works, and the powders appear to be quite well pigmented, so I'm excited to try them!

All for only €

Boots had a 3 for 2 on all cosmetics deal going on, so I picked up these two beauties, as well as a brush which you'll see soon! 

The 'Stay Matte' powder, is a powder I had before, and loved, so I decided to go back to it! The only problem I have with this, is that it's not the best to carry around with you - the last one I had broke within a week! 

 Then I grabbed this beauty of a foundation I've been looking for since it came out; but for some reason, Boots have been sold out of the ivory colour forever! I'm excited for this, and hope that it lives up to the 25 hour promise they make! I will definitely get back to you with that! 

Next up is the Barry M section; now I don't generally buy stuff from Barry M,, but their new nail colours are out, and if you spend more than €9, you got a free mascara! What? Yes please!

I picked up their 'Gelly Hi-Shine Nail Paint' in '????' and I also grabbed a grey which seems to have disappeared already! They were only €5.99 each, and I hear that they're really good, so I'm looking forward to tying them out! 

And, because I spent more than €9, I got their 'Showgirl' mascara (worth €7.49) free! The wand looks surprisingly good, so I can't wait to try it once my current one runs out! 

And lastly, I took advantage of the No7 vouchers that Boots give out at the counter! 

I picked up the 'Rapid Spot Relief' from No7's 'Beautiful Skin' range; this is one of the first No7 products I've bought, so I decided to try something a little different to what I'd usually try! This is usually €11, but their voucher lets you take €6.50 off the original price, so it only cost me €4.50.

That's almost everything I've picked up lately, but I'll have more posts coming for you soon enough I'm sure! I just can't seem to resist buying everything in my sight!
Let me know if y'all have tried any of these, I'd love to know what y'all think!

Byeee, Emma xo
