Hello World!
Ok, a few days ago it was Mother's Day in the UK and as per usual I was unorganised and had not bought my Mum's present, so I asked her what she wanted and was on my way. She wanted something from Next, which I knew was dangerous as this shop is right next to Boots. Two words = uh oh.
I couldn't help myself, I'd heard some really nice reviews of Rimmel's Wake Me Up Foundation (Tanya Burr, Onna's Little Blog and others) and concealer and I really wanted to try it... Unfortunately, I didn't stop there and I ended up spending a whopping £90! (which really is a lot for me, considering it was only on drugstore products)
What did I buy, I hear you ask?
Rimmel Wake Me Up Foundation £8.99
Rimmel Wake Me Up Concealer £5.49
Rimmel Apocolips (501 Stellar) £5.99
Rimmel Apocolips (101 Celestial) £5.99
Rimmel Stay Matt Powder £3.99
Rimmel Soft Khol Kajal Eye Pencil £2.99
Tangle Teaser £10.99
Tweezerman Tweezers £14.50
Barry M Gelly Nail Varnish (Blueberry) £3.99
Barry M Gelly Nail Varnish (Papaya) £3.99
Max Factor Max Effect Mini Nail Vanish £3.99
Maybelline The Falsies Mascara £7.99
(and some other, less exciting, bits and bobs)
Although I spent quite a bit, I think I've found some products that will be part of my beauty routine for quite some time! As I bought quite a bit and want to use these products a bit before I commit myself to giving my opinion on them, I shan't review any of these products until I've used them a bit more, I just thought I'd share with the world what I've bought :) But so far I am loving the Tangle Teaser and Apocalips (so pigmented it's unreal!)
But yes, I must exercise a bit more restraint from now on... student loans only go so far and I fear my parents may disown me if they see me come home with another Boots bag.
Does anyone else struggle to walk past their favourite drugstores?
