Why, hello there...

So I'm finally doing my christmas wishlist! I've actually only asked for boots/superdrug vouchers so I can get exactly what I want in terms of colours and brands, so this is more what I would like to buy after christmas!

1. Borjois colour boots lip crayon.
2. Origins Clear improvement charcoal mask.
3. Sleek au-natural palette
4. L'Oreal matt and messy salt spray.
5. Real Techniques stippling brush
6. Revlon Lip butter
7. Remmington pro-straight straighteners.

What do you want for christmas?

Thanking you,

Naomi

So I'm not a huge fan of candles (or at least I don't have any in my room) so instead I'm just showing you some of my other scented products, so lets get on with it!

1. Avon senses shower gel, warm and fruity - I've had this shower gel for ages and have been saving it for the winter months. It is so nice and it smells so great! Everyone knows I love fruity scents.

2. Body Shop hand cream, Cranberry joy, £4 - I got this the other day using the card I got in the Glamour magazine. It has a sort of odd undertone to it which I can't quite put my finger on, but it still smells great and is perfect for the winter.

3. Original Source scrub, Cranberry and honey, £1.50  - Seems to be a cranberry theme! This stuff smells so good! I love to use it on my legs and arms and it's just a great scrub!

4. Snowman shaped Bath/Shower gel, Candy Canes - This little man sits in my bathroom all year round. He looks so cute! I haven't got round to using it yet, but It does smell just like candy canes or after eights, very christmas appropriate!

5. Yankee Candle, River Valley, 75p (sale) - I got this as I thought it would be a cute little present to add with some other bits for a friend of mine. It smells so fresh, great for the winter!

What's your favourite winter scent?

Thanking you,

Just thought I'd show you some bargains I've picked up recently!

I've really been getting into the Alberto Balsam range, they all smell so good and do the job, also they're only £1 a bottle! This glittery nail polish was from a small shop down near me called amazing savings (a bit like its a gift but its an independent shop). It's by a brand called 'La Femme' which I think I've heard of. It was only £1 and so far it's brilliant, so can't complain! This Nip + Fab body butter was in Saver for only £2! It's normally £8 at boots, but I have heard somewhere that they might be discontinuing this one. I will hopefully be doing a full review on it soon!

Just a quick little post! Have you tried any of these products? 

Thanking you,

I love this product! I saw another blogger saying they really liked it, so I found a travel size one to try it out. I will definitely be purchasing the full size! I always thought most face scrubs are ok, but didn't have enough 'scrubbing' power. This one has plenty. It has loads of little beads in it so it's great to waken your face up in the morning. It also smells really great, so refreshing and a hint of the apricot, but not too overpowering. Also as a plus, the packaging is really nice, and in ASDA the full size one is only £3!

Have you used St Ives? What face scrub do you use?

Thanking you,

(First of all sorry about the rubbish pictures) I LOVE wearing my scarf's in winter, especially my big woolly ones! They're always a great accessory and go with most outfits. I am currently looking for a nice snood because I don't have one in my collection at the moment. I also love my bobble hats. I've had the brown one for a while but don't wear it as much any more as I wear my white one all the time! It's so comfy and warm, I love it!

Only a short post today, didn't really have a lot to say!

What's your favourite winter accessory? 

Thanking you,

I bought the L'Oreal mincellar solution about a month ago, so I think it's time I reviewed it!

Why, hello there...

I was in the Oxford St. Primark a few weeks ago and I went straight to the £5 dresses and spotted this beauty. It's really flattering and a really nice print. For £5 you can't go wrong! I also went to portsmouth recently and they has a discount outlet with loads of designer shops. My mum got me this woolly hot from White stuff (which my mum loves) for half price at £12. For half price it's still a lot, but it is a really soft, cosy hat!

What have you bought recently?

Thanking you,

Why, hello there...

I was sent this shower cap a while a go, sounds like bi of a random product but it's really nice!

Save the Blow dry Shower cap*, £14.95 I've never really used a shower cap before. I always wanted to invest in one for those 2nd day hair days, but I still want a shower. Most shower caps are quite flimsy looking and not very appealing. But this one is genuinely so pretty! It has lots of different pink bows all over it and it's just so cute!

Its special selling point is that it has a special towel lining on the inside, which protects your hair from getting damp. It really does work! They also say that you can turn it inside out for when you put a hair mask on.

(inside out) The only downside to it I would say, is that because the frill at the bottom is made out of the towel it takes a while to dry off. But other than that it's pretty darn good! It is quite pricey but the quality is brilliant and its just really pretty! Thanking you, Naomi x

Why, hello there...

I've never done a favourite post because in order to have favourites that aren't always the same, you actually have to buy stuff. But it seems I've done a bit of shopping over the October month but also added a couple of re-discovered products. Lets go!

This shampoo smells AMAZING. And it's only £1 so you can't go wrong! 

I did a post on this concealer. It's so smooth and has a great applicator, and it was only £1 from the pound shop!

This nail polish is so pretty, another bargain from the pound shop! It's perfect  for this time of the year and its just awesome! 

Hope you like this post! What are your October favourites?

Thanking you,

This is a mixed review. I just LOVE this colour and the way it looks on my nails. It is so pretty, but it comes off so so so easy! I put it on during the day and that night, one of the nails had completely come off and also quite a few were chipped. I was so annoyed!! I will definitely just be sticking to a glitter topcoat instead of an all in one. I have another nails inc polish which I adore so I was really disappointed with this one. I didn't buy this someone gave it to me, I can't justify £12 for a nail polish, but I personally wouldn't advise investing in this, it's only really useful for parties and nights out instead of wearing it for the week.

Do you like nails inc.? 

Thanking you,

Why, hello there...

A couple of weeks ago I went on my last little shopping trip before deciding to go on a spending bn, so here's what I bought!

St Ives apricot scrub, travel size, £1.20

I saw another blogger write a post on this and it looked really good. My skin gets really dry and flaky in the winter so hopefully this will do the job. I only got the travel size in case I didn't like it, but I love it so far, look out for a review!

Yankee candle, 75p (sale)  /  Book-shaped box, £1.25 There's this tiny shop near me which is a kind of weird spiritual stone kinda thing shop, but it does sell cute gifts and a tonne of yankee candles. These were in the sale so I thought I would buy then as possible christmas presents.

Hope you liked this post! What have you bought recently?

Thanking you,

Why, hello there...

MUA concealer, Natural, £1.50  /  NYC Concealer, Beige, £1 (pound shop) Both of these concealers are so so cheap, but both so brilliant. I've had the MUA one for quite a few months now and I've still got a bit left. I haven't had the NYC one for as long, but I've used it as my every day concealer since I got it. They both have their good points and not so good points, so lets get started! 1. The Applicator: The MUA one has an applicator similar to a lip gloss applicator so it's relatively small and doesn't pick up as much as the NYC one. The NYC one is a lot longer and more flexible which makes it really easy to apply.

2. Colour: I personally prefer my concealer to be a little bit lighter than my actual skin tone. This means it looks better on the dark areas around my eyes. The MUA one is a little bit lighter so it's great for around my eyes.

Left:: MUA  /  Right: NYC

3. Formula: MUA's formula is a bit lighter than NYC's. I do like lighter formulas but it does mean that it doesn't have a very heavy coverage. It's great for spots or blemishes but NYC covers up my under-eye circles perfectly.

Hopefully this has been useful!
Have you used either of these products? What's your favourite concealer?

Thanking you,

Naomi
