Hello there bloggers!
So today I thought I would share with you all the things I have purchased during the summer holiday. All the things I'm sharing with you today are beauty products! Soo let's jump right into it..!
Baby Lips..
Okay so I'm sure you have all heard about the Maybelline New York "Baby Lips". (If not they are basically a lip balm stick which scrolls up, some are tinted and some aren't). They have been raved about SO much and everyone seemed really excited about them coming to the UK, so I had to go out and buy one to see what it was all about. I purchased the "Pink Punch" one as that was the only tinted one that was in stock. They are priced at £2.99 so a reasonable price and they can be found in Boots(where I bought mine) and also Superdrug. There are 6 in the range, 3 tinted and 3 clear.

So after using this for a few weeks I am totally in love! It has a cute pink tint but isn't too bold! It's so moisturising for my lips and I'm so glad I bought it!
Candle Pot...
So the other day I went on a cheeky trip to Ikea! I didn't go to buy anything specific(actually just boring clear storage boxes!) but whilst I was there I thought I would check out the candle section. I needed a pot to keep my Yankee Candles in and to use for when I wanted to burn one of them. I found this really cute pot with cut-outs of flowers and thought it would be perfect! As you can see below it holds the candle really well!

The pot is quite small so I can only fit 4 sample Yankee Candles in however it's not supposed to be used to store them so the fact it's small isn't a flaw! It was about £1.50 I think so a great price! I haven't yet used this pot to burn them yet but I already love it!
Make up sponges...
I popped to the shops today and I picked up a bargain! I went to Primark and found these sponges for only £1.50 for a pack of 20! I haven't yet used them but I plan to use them more for doing ombré effect nails (comment below if you would like a post on that) but I may use them for foundation too! They are all triangle shapes which give a good point to the sponges which will be great for apply makeup/nail varnish.

Colour Tattoo...
On a trip to London I visited Boots in search for the "Pink Gold" Maybelline Colour Tattoo. It is a cream eye shadow which can be used as a base or just ok it's own. And again it is another product that has been raved about a lot! I managed to find this in the Boots I visited and was really happy as it had seemed be sold out everywhere I looked!

Review:
This is so beautiful! It's really creamy and lasts for ages! I'm not sure if it lasts for 24hrs as I don't wear it for that long but it definitely lasts! It's a really pretty colour too! And for £4.99 you can't go wrong it's quick and easy!
Vaseline Spray and Go...
I got this from boots (I spend most of my time in Boots aha..!) for £4.99. As soon as I saw it I thought I NEED THAT! I'm really lazy with moisturising as it takes so long to put on and then you have to wait for it to sink in and dry and...ahhhh..... But this you spray on like sun cream and BAM it's done! I love it! It smells of Cocoa Butter which is a bonus! I definitely recommend purchasing this!
Thanks for reading!
