Shopping Spree :)

Aloha,

First of all, I'd like to say that I'm really sorry. I am leaving blogging... ONLY JOKING! No, I'm sorry that I haven't posted for a few weeks. I am not going to make excuses for myself because although I've had a lot of major big decisions that will shape the rest of my life recently. Especially my art project, still not decided on that one. Basically (going slightly off topic here) my stimulus is to do a project on 'Fear of dust'. Soooo... yeah if you have any ideas on how to help me with that it would be appreciated.

Anyways, quite recently I went on a shopping spree that was pretty big. I visited Peacocks, Lush, Primark, New look, Claires (etc). I bought some really nice products, clothes and accessories. I'm just going to say that my taste may not be to yours and so you shouldn't judge me. Anyway, the first thing I am going to show you is the Rimmel London Stay Matte Powder in the shade 004 sandstorm. I love this powder because it just gives me a natural glow and sets my concealer if I ever wear any. I don't wear a lot of makeup because I have eczema and I therefore have really sensitive skin but this seems to be ok, and I am gradually getting out of my sensitive skin stages.

Matte Powder, my cute 'lil brush

To go with this I bought a Primark essentials powder brush, which I ABSOLUTELY recommend to all of you! I was going to buy a real techniques brush but to be perfectly honest with you I felt like I would just be paying for the label. Honestly, for the little amount of powder I wear it is pointless buying it. But, I think that the Primark brush is so soft and I think that is more crucial than paying for a label. So no offence to Techniques Teenagers but I prefer the Primark brushes as they are soft and provide even coverage, which means that I'm happy, my brush is happy, and my face looks happy!

I also bought quite a few bits and pieces for my hair. I recently had my hair cut shorter and I just find that little things like grips and bows come in so much more handy and are used so much more now that putting my hair up in a bobble is strictly for PE only (the only time when I know I look horrible and I don't care (every other time I actually do care)). So I bought a big bow which is green tartan and I absolutely lovely. I bought this from new look for around 3 pounds. I also bought 2 smaller bows, one just normal black and one with really cute little daisies on. These were about 2 pounds and they were from peacocks too. I then bought some claw type grips, you know the ones I mean, with a light blue paisley pattern, a fuschia pink one, and a slightly darker blue paisley pattern one. I think these were 2 pounds from new look (bargain if you ask me). I then bought some of your bog-standard grips, 49p from superdrug if you wanted to know;)

  Bow and grips...

I fell like this post has gotten a bit boring so instead of writing about stuff I bought I'm just going to add the pictures I would have spoken about below. If you would like me in my next post to speak about them then please comment with a message below or post a picture of a pug with the hashtag #justagirlshopping and I will be sure to look although no-one will post because that was really random *hehe*

Well I guess this is goodbye until I post again which I am hoping to do by Friday because I let you guys down so you better be getting those hashtags up on instagram soon! Here are the pictures xxxx

 NSPA body sprays in the scents exotically creamy
coconut and seriously intense passion fruit. I 
bought these from Asda for less than 2 pounds.
 Two chunky eyes eye liner pencils are from 
Peacocks and are gorgeous. I use them for brows 
too.
Lush products bought from Lush (obviously). 
They smell amazing and look amazing. Honey bee
has oats in it apparently which is really good for eczema.
Just a little note about the lush products. I chose honey bee (to the right) and Ickle baby bot (to the left) on smells rather than luxury in the bath. I quite like having a lush product in my bedroom to give it a nice scent. What I do is put it in a box in my room whilst I'm at school or out and about and when I'm back I take the lid off my box and enjoy the scents filling my room! I love it so much and if you take anything from this blog it should be putting lush products in boxes :)

Thank you all, if anyone who reads it although I know one person who does and that is my bestie so go check out her blog - pheethebeaut.blogspot.com you'll like her blog more than mine <3
