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; Primark, Superdrug & Newlook!

I don't really tend to do hauls on this blog, but I hope to start a trend on my blog and try and make a 'haul' post every time I go shopping and buy enough worthy of a post! I'd just like to say I'm not bragging about anything I've brought and I brought it all myself. I simply like watching/reading other peoples hauls so I want to make my own posts! Lets begin.. 

First place I went to was Superdrug and I picked up two new Nail Paints by Barry M. Superdrug are currently running a deal on Barry M's nail paints where you get £1 off if you buy two. So it comes to £5 for two which isn't bad for the quality/amount! The two shades I got were '308 Berry I/C' which is a very nice pastel purple. The second shade was '305 Pink Flamingo' which is a hot coral pink. Be sure to look out for a few NOTD's with these beauties! You can buy them from Superdrug here.

Next up Newlook! I went into Newlook intending on buying a black bodycon skirt which I need for a family meal coming up. If you don't know Newlook currently has a sale on in their stores/online so I decided to have a quick browse to see if I could find one and amazingly I did! This beauty was reduced from £17.99 to a amazing £6! I couldn't leave it there for that price and plus its great quality. 

Now onto everyone's favourite - primark! One item I picked up was these tights which were reduced from £3.50 to £2.50 so I thought I'd just pick some up as you can never have to many tights! 

Secondly I got a plain long-sleeved top for wearing under school blouses on the colder days. I love Primark for little things like this as they're so cheap! I love these and already own quite a few. 

Whilst browsing through the isles of Primark I saw a stand with all of these tops on. I already love Super Dry and Hollister tops like this and I was shocked when I found out Primark sell dupes of these great tops. Primark's version are so soft and thick, making them great quality and a bargin for just £6! 

Also like Newlook, Primark have a sale on. Like the top I showed previously they have some colours also on sale! I couldn't believe it. My favourite new Primark buy in the sales! This is a very nice orange colour which isn't showing up to well on camera! *Sad face*. This top was reduced from £6 down the £3 and when I got to the tills to pay it came out as being £1! O.M.G! I couldn't believe it. I love Primark for little things like this.

So that's my haul over! I hope you enjoyed reading it!
