Today’s Beauty Haul!
To start with: my new LUSH products. I’m a recent LUSH convert, since I only discovered their amazing skincare products yesterday! Until then I’d always assumed LUSH was just soap and bathbombs, but I was SO wrong. Anyway, I digress. Today I picked up Angels on Bare Skin (paste to milk cleanser, possibly the most beautiful, softening product my skin has ever encountered), Rub Rub Rub shower scrub (a sea salt and lemon scrub that smells so amazing) and the Sea Spray hair mist. Best £30 I’ve ever spent I reckon. (I also got some free samples of their Gorgeous and Enzymion moisturisers in cute little pots, can’t wait to try them).
Next, Body Shop goodies. I’ve been looking for a good blush and bronzer recently, with good colour payoff and no shimmer/glitter effect. The Body Shop answered my prayers AND threw in a free lychee lipgloss, so I was a pretty happy bunny! I also bought an Ecotools blusher brush and a Body Shop bronzer kabuki brush for super soft application.
Finally I bought Soap and Glory’s Kickass Concealer. I’ve read some great reviews about this 3 step wonder (there’s an anti dark circle concealer, a blemish concealer and a setting powder in this little pot) so I decided to give it a go. A quick test has proven that this product lives up to its name as its practically banished my dark under eye circles and covered my blemishes!
All in all, I think that’s a pretty good haul.
