HAUL: Forever 21 & Superdrug!

Hello lovelies! Today I'm doing another haul. Today I went too the Trafford Centre where recently a new Forever 21 opened I just wanted to take a peek! So let's begin.


I've only ever been in one other Forever 21, and when I found out that there was a new store in the Trafford Centre I jumped at the chance at going. The store is huge, full of all of the latest clothes, jewellery and bags. Not a lot actually caught my eye though, there was a lot of 'party dresses' and more nights out outfits. I will still continue to look in but I didn't find a lot this time! 



One thing I got was this 'basic top'. I normally buy these from Primark but this one from Forever 21 feels much better quality and it costs the same price! It's a creamy/Ivory colour. Also it's a great price of only £2.50. 



The final item I brought was this necklace. It's a cute pendant necklace with a vintage broach at the end of it. It's a nice baby pink with cream on. I love it! I also love the price tag of only £1.50! 



If you don't know, Superdrug currently have a 3 for 2 offer on all of their Maybelline products. I originally only went in to get one of their 24 Hour tattoo's but I came out with three products! The first item I got was the Maybelline Dream Touch Blush in 06. This is a very nice berry pink colour, it's also very easy to blend!  It retails for £6.49.



I've heard many great things about the 24 Hour Tattoo's so I felt like it was time to try one! I picked up a highly raved about shade, On & On Bronze. It's a shimmery goldy-brown which is great to be worn just by it's self! This retails for £5.





 The final product I got was one of Maybelline's Colour Sensational Lipsticks in the shade 148 Summer pink. I've never really heard anything about these so I thought I'd pick one up just to try. I've tried it out once and I can say I really like these. It has great pigmentation and doesn't dry out my lips! It retails for £7.19.

So that's my haul! Have you checked out the new Forever 21?

HAUL: Superdrug, Primark & The pound store.


Hello lovelies! Today I'm going to be doing a haul post for you seeing as I've not done one in a while! I didn't buy any clothing, just cosmetics which is exciting.  So let's begin! 




Starting with Superdrug, I was just browsing around the store when I found a shelf full of all of the 'reduced' items. All of these items were either broken or had lids missing etc. I was just sifting through everything what was there and I came across this liquid eyeliner. I have been wanting to try Collection 2000's Extreme 24hr Wear Felt Tip Liner for some time now but when I saw this Maybelline Liner Express I knew I had to try it. Also it had a great reduction of £2.69! The nib is very nice and it's easy to get either a thicker line or a thin one. If you want a review feel free to request one! 



The next thing I brought was something I really needed. It's Rimmel London's Stay Matte Pressed Powder in 003 peach glow. This is my everyday powder and I've been out of my other one for the past few days so I really needed to get this!  It's a great price of £3.99.




The final product I got from Superdrug was Garnier's Miracle Skin Perfector. After hearing many great things about this I've been dying to get it for when I go on holiday as I don't want to be wearing my everyday foundation whilst I'm in a hot country! Mine's in the shade 'Light/Clear' and I can't wait to try it! It retails for £7.49 (On offer currently in Superdrug!).


Then I just went into Primark (Not intending on buying anything!), But I saw these 24 French nails which I wanted to try as they were only £1. I doubt they'll stay on very long but they look nice! 



Then finally I went into Pound Land to get a drink, but I got sidetracked by the large make-up stand my Pound Land offers! I was surprised to find Collection 2000's Skyscraper mascara on the stand! (Obviously for £1...). Normally in Boots this retails for £4.99 so I just jumped at the chance and brought it! It has a plastic brush which isn't to everyone's tastes but I like the look of it so far!

So that's everything I brought today!

HAUL; Bank, Toms, H&M and Superdrug!

Aloha beautiful people! Sorry I haven't blogged much this week, I've just not found the time! But today I went shopping to the Trafford Centre. I didn't get that much but I did get some really nice items ^-^ Anyway lets begin. 






My nearest shopping centre doesn't have a Bank shop inside, so when I go to the Trafford Centre I love to go and have a little look around at what's in there! I've been looking for a jacket like this for a while. Topshop sell them but for some reason I've never bought one! I saw this gorgeous coral coloured one and I knew I had to have it. It feels great quality and it's sooooo soft! 





My local shopping centre doesn't have a H&M either, so I love to have a quick nosey from time to time. I've been looking for some summery shorts (which aren't denim) for some time and Primark have some nice ones but they never fit! I love these pair of shorts which I came across today. At just £15, they're perfect! They are a really light weight material which is perfect for when I'm on holiday so I don't get too hot! 





To go with my new "summery" shorts, I picked up some Toms! I've been debating getting either Toms or Vans. But I decided to go with Toms as Vans made my feet look bigger than they already are! I got the classic navy blue colour and they are soooo comfy! I love them. I brought these from Schuh for £35. 



As with every shopping trip I can't help myself but go in either Superdrug or Boots! Today I went to Superdrug to stock up on two essential items. 




One thing I brought is a staple item in my makeup routine and that is foundation. The one I'm currently using is actually a shade too dark for me so I always end up walking around like an orange! So I got a new foundation and I'm trying one I've never tried or looked into purchasing. I thought I'd give it a go! It's Rimmel London's Match Perfection foundation in the shade #100 Ivory. I hope that this is the right shade! I tested it on my hand and it looks OK, but I hope it's the same on my face! This was £6.99.  



My local Superdrug doesn't have a big MUA stand like in the Trafford Centre. It doesn't stock pallets but when I saw the 'Heaven and Earth' one (which is highly raved about) I knew I had to get it! At just £4, you're getting over 10 highly pigmented eyeshadows! I love it. 


And the final thing I brought was my second essential which is my pressed powder. I love the Rimmel Stay Matte pressed powder! It's great. Mine is in the shade #003 Peach Glow. This was £3.99 and it's a bargin!

Ok so that's the end of my haul! Thankyou for reading :)

HAUL; ELF!

Aloha ladies! Today I'm writing a very exciting post for you all; an ELF haul! This is my second time ordering from ELF and I love all of the products I got this time. Last weekend (19th May) I ordered from ELF as they had two different offers on. One offer was to get free shipping and a free lipgloss if you spent over £10, the other was to get a free 6-in-1 beauty to go palette. I took the offer of free shipping and lipgloss and this is what I brought!  


All of my goodies ^-^ Follow me on instagram; @beautyslittleangel. 


Buy ELF's nail polishes here.

Two things I added to my virtual shopping basket were two of ELF's nail polishes. I love the nail polishes ELF has (I already own four) and for £1.50 the quality is amazing. 



The first one I chose was in the shade '1556 Mint Cream'. I picked this as pastel nails are in this summer and I don't own a colour like this and for just £1.50 it's worth a try.  



The second nail polish I chose was a top coat in the shade '1590 Matte'. I love the concept of this nail polish. What you do is paint your nails with any colour you wanted, then use this as your topcoat. This creates a whole new look for your nails and can update your old nail polishes! This was also £1.50. 



Buy the 'Super glossy lipshines' here.

This lipgloss is the free gift I got with the offer what was on. It is a 'Super glossy lipshine SPF 15'. I knew before I ordered that the colours ELF were giving away randomly to people who took up the offer weren't the best but I'm really not a fan of this colour. The consistency of these lip glosses are great and they do a great job but I'm not a fan of the colour. Mine is in the shade '2802 Mauve Luxe'. I'm thinking about giving this to my mum as she prefers the darker shades of lip glosses! 


Buy the eyelid primer here.

Another product I decided to pick up is a highly raved about item which is ELF's eyelid primer from their original line. I'm yet to try this out with an eyeshadow but from a quick swatch on my hand I've found it blends very easily so you can't tell that you're wearing a primer on. It has a very nice doe-foot applicator which doesn't pick up too much product - so you aren't wasting it! Mine is in the shade 'sheer'. 


Finally onto the brushes! 



Buy the 'Total face brush' here.

The first brush I picked up was ELF's professional total face brush. I haven't really heard many people talk about this but at just £1.50 I decided to try it. I haven't used this yet but just by touching it I can feel how soft the bristles are! Also it's very dense so it should pick up a lot of product. 



Buy the 'Blushing, bronzing and blending brush' here.

After misplacing my previous blusher brush I brought this one from ELF at yet again just £1.50. I haven't used this yet but I'll report back with a review soon. 



Buy the ELF 'stipple brush' here.

The final product/brush I got was the ELF stipple brush. This is yet again another highly raved about item and I brought this just for my foundation. I shall also make a blog post with a review in the near future. 


Well that's the end of my ELF haul! If you want a review of anything then comment ^_^
