Beauty Haul ♥


Hello Lovelies, Tonights post is on my recent little beauty splurge enjoy. 


First up we have Loreal True Match foundation in the shade W3 Golden Beige which I brought from Boots for £9.99. Now I wont lie I love my foundations I think there is nothing better than a flawless base, I always tend to keep them quite high end NARS sheer glow being one of my favourites (see full review here) However every time I watch a You Tube tutorial more often than not the girls are using this foundation and they swear by it, it always looks so good on them so curiosity got the better of me and I had to purchase some. I am actually pleasantly surprised at how much I like this foundation it gives a nice coverage I would say medium but most definitely build-able for a full coverage and do you not what it's staying power isn't all that bad either, I always use a primer before I apply any foundation but i honestly thought this would go patchy by about 10am even with primer but it really doesn't and it does a good job of sticking around, I do a 12 hour day and at the end of my day the only places it had gone patchy was on my cheeks a little and chin I never reapply my make up at work as I work with kids so theres no point but I think thats pretty good going for a drug store foundation that was under £10 (just). The finish of this foundation is matte.


Next up we have the much raved about Bourjois Bronzing Primer which was £9.99 from Superdrug, eeeeeek I have wanted this for ages but it has always been sold out so I was very happy when I nabbed one the other day. I must admit when I first saw this in the shops I was like what the hell....To me it looked really dark and a bit scary but when I applied some to my hand I loved how well it blended and how flawless it appeared it's not scary once blended. Phew. It has an amazing chocolate scent so whats not to love about that. I have been applying this under my foundation and I have been loving the natural golden glow it gives off, I have seen some others using it as a bronzer or contour above foundation but I am yet to try it this way. I must say I don't use this as a primer alone I still apply a little of my Benefit Porefessional before hand and then go in with this.


Now we have the ever so famous Baby Lips by Maybelline in Pink Punch £2.99 from Boots, when I was in America I saw these on every shelf in every shop and I could kick myself for not stocking up and bringing them all home as I knew the Uk were raving about them and couldn't wait for them to be launched, however as they are only £2.99 I don't feel to sad. These surprisingly give quite a pigmented colour to the lips I was quite shocked when I applied it in a good way obviously. Pink Punch appears on the lips as a baby pink my favourite kind of pink and they do make your lips feel really moisturised when on, very happy I finally purchased one of these and will most definitely keep my eyes peeled for other shades.


Last up we have one of my holy grails Lee Stafford Hair Growth Treatment £7.99 from Boots, this is my third tub I love it that much, I actually did a full review on this not that long ago so check that out here. All I will say is that if you have that annoying hair that doesn't like to grow then try this its done wonders for my hair :)
