Picked up a few items over the last month or so .... been making use of the current offers .... as you do...!
3 for 2 at Superdrug - got the MUA Undress Me Too palette and Sleek Make-Up Blush in Flushed (the 3rd item was a lip gloss for my daughter). Used my No 7 money off voucher on the Instant Radiance Concealer (which I've used before) and then buy one get one half price on the No 7 Stay Perfect Amazing Eyes Pencil in brown.
You'll see from my recent empties post here that I've finished my Vichy Aqualia Thermal Serum. I wanted to re-purchase as I really like this product and feel it's helped to keep my skin hydrated. Also wanted to try the Aqualia Thermal Light (normal/combination skin) as a day cream. But then the 3 for 2 offer had me in a quandary because although I don't need anything else - how can you walk away from the third item? After much deliberation went for Idealia BB Cream - Medium shade, it seems to have a whole host of benefits which I could do with at the moment!
Been meaning to get myself a good topcoat for ages - quick drying and longevity is exactly what I need so let's see how the Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Anti-Chip Top Coat does. Since I've recently had loads of colour/highlights in my hair I picked up the John Frieda Intense After-Colour Conditioner whilst it was on offer at Boots (think it had £2 off) and then John Frieda Shampoo and Conditioners were half price at Sainsburys that same week (the offer was still on when I called in Friday) so went for the Brilliant Brunette Multi-Tone Revealing Shampoo (which I've used and liked before) to go with it.
So that's my lot for a while - I think I need to stay away from Boots and Superdrug and ignore any vouchers but you only live once right? Maybe just the odd lippie or two wouldn't hurt and maybe a new bronzer for summer?
What have you hauled recently?

OOO what a lovely lot of products - yummy! I love my Mua palette - use it most days at the moment. Maybe one day I'll get an Urban decay palette from a kind person, but I am getting lots of use out of my Mua until then!! I am into the Revelon Lip butters - got two more this week on an offer - must stop now! X
ReplyDeleteThe MUA seems a good mix of neutrals Claire - maybe one day I'll get an Urban Decay palette too (not holding my breath in the short term though!). I've not tried any Revlon lip butters yet - must have a look at them xx
DeleteI love your blog posts!!
ReplyDeleteThankyou :)
DeleteOoh nice haul. Didn't realise no7 did a highlighting pen or maybe I did and forgot :S
ReplyDeleteThanks Mez - I do love hauls. I've used the No 7 Instant Radiance on an off for ages now xx
DeleteI love Sleek products, but all my local Superdrug seem to have disconnected it! :/ I find the MUA stuff just doesn't measure up especially their brow stuff. Will love to know how you get on with the BB cream, I am always looking for BB or tinted moisturisers to try out x
ReplyDeleteKay!! so nice to 'hear' from you! This is my first Sleek product - can't wait to use it but must photograph first! I'm trying the BB out as we speak and first impressions are good! xx
DeleteIt's great to be catching up on your blog! Now things have calmed down a bit more in life, I should have much more time for blogging - yay! x
DeleteLooking forward to seeing more about that Sleek blush - I'm loving the bits I picked up from them recently.
ReplyDeleteI 've been quite well behaved over the past month or so and haven't hauled much. Saying that, I did go on a bit of a shopping trip at the end of May and get a few bits from Zara, and I also picked up a Mac lipstick in Lady Danger, Maybelline The Falsies mascara and Revlon Fearless nail varnish :)

I really want to use the Sleek blush but haven't even had chance to photograph it properly! I love Zara - one of my favourite shops! Lippie, mascara and nail polish sound like a good trio! xx
