Mini beauty bits haul

Hi Guys,

A while ago I picked up some bits that I thought that I would share with you all.

First up is a repurchase of my favourite 'budget' perfume - Intimately. This is my 7th bottle maybe? I got this from The Perfume Shop, £14.99 for 75ml - you can get this for under £12 online (try Fragrance Direct). Throughout the summer I was searching for a summer smell but I was unsuccessful and it's September now so I've just stuck with my fail safe fragrance. 

The next few bits I picked up from my favourite shop, the 99p store - needless to say, these cost me 99p each (BARGAIN!!!)

You can imagine that after my hair bleaching marathon my hair is a tad bit dry - I saw this on the shelves and thought I would give it a go. I'm not too fussy with conditioner as I don't apply it to my scalp so no negative skin reactions to worry about. I haven't given this a go yet - if it's amazing I'll give you an update. 

Having a love hate relationship with the face wash. Hating it because potentially it's too drying for me; but that's my fault for buying an oil free exfoliator/foaming scrub. So anyway, the good stuff - this leaves my face feeling nice and fresh - what more could you ask for from a face wash?! The scrubby bits aren't too harsh and the washy bit foams up easily. 

Last but not least - the oh so glamorous anti dandruff shampoo. The change in weather is playing havoc with my skin.  My face, ears ad hair are suffering the most. I don't have dandruff as such, but my scalp is really dry so I thought this might help? This is a repurchase and I like it because I find it more gentle than head and shoulders - not sure if this is actually true but it's ok and it's 99p so yay!

When I was younger the change is weather didn't really affect me and I used the same products all year round. Now I'm finding myself having to 'switch up' my shiz as my skin is an oil slick one day and then dessert dry the next. Annoying and costly. Oh well #firstworldproblems !!! Any recommendations for dry skin?

Another celeb scent - Kate Moss

My latest celeb perfume courtesy of mummy/santa claus. Mummy said that I like pink perfumes which on reflection is true!

I wore this a few times before my nose was working but I received compliments and a common comment was roughly "it smells the way I expect you to smell".....which means I dunno but....

...the negative reviews of Kate say that it is a cheap and teenager type smell (which I wouldn't consider a compliment) but...

....the positive reviews say this is a young and sweet girly smell, so I hope that is what people mean lol

I've only had this since Christmas but as you can see from the photo I've already hit the half way mark!

So that a trio of celeb scents I now own and I love them all. I think with perfume you can't diss them until you've tried them.

Retail Therapy

I've been wanting this for a while, and I am embarrassed about this but whatever, I am the proud owner of the perfume, 'Stunning' by Katie Price.

Now, you may be wondering about how and why an anosmic would be want want wanting a perfume; basically I read a review that Stunning was a dupe for Miss Dior Cherie and I wanted me some of that. But of course, I don't know what Miss Dior Cherie smells like either lol So basically I am a sheep following a cloud of perfume :)

I got a good deal, 50ml for £19.99 (30ml would have cost £18.99!!) from The Perfume Shop. And initially I nearly had a heart attack when I opened the box to have a spray because the nozzle thing came off and I couldn't get it on for ages and then pop! problem solved, spray spraying yay yaaaaay! Not sure if I like it or not; I can't make out the 'notes' but I can sense that it is really sweet, hopefully not sickenly so!

I have also just right this minute finished purchasing another perfume, this time from the online The Perfume Shop as the actual store did not have this in stock....Intimately Beckham. A absolute steal at £14.99 for 75ml!!! Again, not really sure what it smells like but my friend at work carries this round in her handbag and she seems the sort who smells nice and like nice smells lol Very excited to have this.

I also brought 2 black eyeliners from a little market stall, £3.50 for both. Not the best quality (swatched it on the black of my hand) but for that price, I can't complain! And I needed some eyeliner to just dump in my handbag so yay!

I got the coolest handbags from Primarni when I went to Romford with SF but argh no mobile no blog photos :( My new phone has a camera, 1.3megapixels (!) but no lead to load onto my laptop.....any ideas?

Consequently,that basically means that this blog will have no pictures until at least march 9th :( I'm sad because I enjoy taking the pics and blogging about them.

Well, I smell good and I feel a bit happie; I hope you smell good and you are happy to this weekend lol xoxo
