Mini Haul: Mini Egg Nails&Crochet Shorts.

Hello all! Long time no see(again!) but hopefully from now one I'll be posting more regularly. Today I have my second haul, I think my last one was in December so it's about time! After a lovely day watching the Muppets Most Wanted then having a look around the shops followed by a yummy hot chocolate I thought a great way to end to the day to do some blogging.

Collection Lasting Pefection Foundation- £3.99 +Boots UK 

First up is the Collection Lasting Perfection Liquid Foundation, I ended up buying the powder as well and a concealer from the same brand. I first heard about it from someone who said its the only brand they can find 'the right shade in, though I have to say there wasn't that much choice in shades at the shop I was in. It claims to last 16 hours(!!!) which is quite a lot to be claiming in my opinion, so I'm hoping it lives up to expectations as that would be great.

Collection Lasting Perfection Powder-£3.99@Boots

Next is the powder, which is also claiming to last up to 16 hours, it comes with a sponge and mirror underneath which is handy. But, I feel like it may be a bit of a pain to keep flicking it to get the powder whilst looking what you're doing maybe?

Collection Illuminating Touch Concealer-£3.99@Boots 

Okay so I'm not sure I can even type conceal(don't feel)er without bursting into Let it Go but here we go. I bought this as it reminds me of the Maybeline LumiTouch which I'm currently using. It has the same brush and twist end but was considerably less in price.

Models Own Nail Polish-£55.00@Boots

YAYYYYY! So this is probably my favourite out of the whole entire haul! Its basically a nail varnish which looks like mini eggs(yum) they have it in four other colours I think and its just so cute I cannot contain my excitement! I bought it in 'Dove' today(tempted as I was to get them all) and it's already on my nails. It's pink with black speckles and it literally looks like Mini Eggs.

Cami Top-£5.99@New Look

Okay so at the moment I have a slight obsession with camis(okay so I have three but still) and despite the somewhat gloomy weather I have been wearing them with cardigans. I wanted something a little plain so I could pair it with lots of stuff and the straps just add a little extra to it.

Crochet Shorts-£14.99@New Look

(sorryaboutthenowritingonpicturethingymylaptopisbeingcrazy)

I lovelovelove these shorts, they just make me think of summer when I look at them! They are so comfy and I can not wait to wear them. I've got my fingers crossed that they'll come out with some cream ones too.

Couple of extra pictures from today as well:)

Confessions of a shopaholic...my first haul!

My names Emily and I'm a shopaholic. So today I'm writing my first ever hauuuullll...yay! Lets just say, I hadn't been shopping for a long time and I was pretty excited about getting everyone's presents so I maybe got a little over excited..

Before we get in to this let me just promise that I'm not in any way trying to show off or brag, that I don't get paid to do this and that everything was bought with my own money.

Selfridges. Okay, so when someone told me there's a Primark in the Selfridges where I was going I was pretty excited. But, I did expect it to be more than pyjamas and onesies(as much as I love them) so I guess you could say I was pretty disappointed when in a massive shop I could only find pyjamas in the Primark section. Nevertheless, I couldn't resist these super cute pjs and fluffy socks.

Both;£5 each. Primark at Selfridges.

I love the patterns on these shorts...but I did have one problem with these. In the shop, the extra small looked tiny so I went for small even though it said they're 10/12 which I'm not. But I soon realised they're too big. Oh well, there super comfy now!

The only differences I can find other than the patterns and colours are that the red top has a bit of a pattern on it that the grey doesn't. Also the ribbon on the checked pair doesn't tighten them but the other one's does.

£4, Primark at Selfridges.

Second up! I got these super duper cozy wozy bed socks. Don't they just make you think of Christmas?

They're not just bed socks, they're fluffy bed socks! 

Body butter; £6.50(special price).

As I looked round body shop at the body butters I was mesmerised by the packaging of the ginger bread one. But, after smelling it I decided to opt for this Honey one.

It smells delicious and leaves your skin feeling nice and soft.

  Over at H&M I finally started on my Christmas shopping.

T-shirt; £7.99

First of all I got this oversized tee which I couldn't really decide whether to get, but I got it. Seriously, it's MASSIVE but it's another comfy one and I love it.

Children's pyjamas;£5.99 each.

I also got these ickle pyjamas for my nieces to wear on Christmas eve. There so cute and can't wait to give them them.

Mini chocolate boxes; £1 each.

I managed to get half my friends prezzies in Superdrug but, just in case they read this I won't show them. But, how cute are these little chocolate boxes?

Story time, here it comessss! To try putting it short, whenever I even step near the Lush that's where I usually go shopping I get a headache as it's small,cramped and usually pretty busy. But, whenever I get Lush products off other people I LOVE them!! So, I managed to push myself into a different Lush store where I dipped into a couple of things.

Melting snowman bath melt; unknown.(sorry)

The first thing I got was this melting snowman man bath melt and I can't really comment on how good it is yet but it looks good and I'm looking forward to using it,

Penguin bubble bar; unknown(sorry).

The next thing I got was this penguin bubble bar and to be completely honest I forgot what it was when I used it. So, if you're looking for a good exfoliator it works for that too! 

Lush is really good for presents as well because the bags have a little'to and from' bit on one side.

T-shirt;£10.

At River Island I was frantic looking for this grey Christmas t-shirt which I'd seen online. But it had been taken off the website so I was desperate to find it. Once I did though, I could not find a single size 8(or  6!) until I found this one which had no tag on it saying the size. I'm still not really sure what size this is as it's oversized and is pretty big anyway but it fits comfy. I won't show you properly but I'll hopefully do an OOTD with this included pretty soon.

I may of slightly kind of maybe just a bit needed a new mascara pretty urgently! I dont know what it is with mascaras but I always manage to either lose them or they'll go all sticky. So I popped into Boots to get some extras of things which are running out and I'm pretty impressed with all the things i bought.

Maybeline the colossal volume express;£7.99

This is the mascara I got this time, but to be honest I always get a different one as I'm never really happy with them but this is different.

I love the round brush as the curve makes it easy to get on your lashes without almost getting it on your eyelids and as for use it really spreads them out but without looking all clumped and yucky!

Maybeling Dream Lumi Touch; £6.99.

As for this concealer it's one of the best I've used personally. But, it did take me a while to realise you twisted the end to get it to come out the brush(that's probably 'cause I usually get stick concealers). Also, the writing seams to have worn off really easily considering I''ve had it since Saturday and it hasn't really been anywhere.

Maybeline Baby Lips; £2.99.

 There was a three for one offer on all Maybeline products so I decided to get my first Baby Lips and I can't say I'm disappointed because it's AMAZING. I never really got onto the hype about them but they leave your lips sooo soft and even though I went for the plain one, it smells really nice too.

S&G Hand maid hand sanitiser ; £2.50

Yes, I am in love with 'soap and glory'. I have to have this hand sanitiser with me all the time, not even to keep clean but it makes your hands smell great. I think it has watermelon in it but you will literally want to eat your hands after using it.

Beanie; £7.50

Mad hatter? Or non hatter? Either way I'm loving my new beanie which says "Bad Hair Day..". I'm not really sure if I suit it but I think it's cute and it keeps my ears warm(pure fashion reasons).

 

CAAAKKKEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!! Take a look at these beautiful cupcakes I came upon in Selfridges food hall! I decided to treat myself to the oreo one and it was delicious.

Fancy a macaroon miss? I couldn't help but try one of the Christmas tree ones but as I soon found out, I'm sad to say I don't like macaroons. Yes, I know it sounds weird but they look so cute that I just wish that I did haha.
