Massive haul

My boyfriend and I decided to take a little trip to his local shopping centre to waste some time today and managed to spend far more money than I should’ve! I did buy a lot of bargain beauty items though and he treated me to a new camera to blog with! Here’s what I got

Beauty

From Savers- nail art stickers, 2x angled eyeliner brushes (I wanted these for crease cutting), powder brush( to keep at G’s), big velcro rollers- I’m into big hair atm, these give lots of lift at the root.

I also popped into a shop called Store 21, which used to be Q&S, and found BYS make up. I’ve wanted to try their polishes for ages, the colours weren’t that exciting except for Tickle me pink and the glitter polish in Kinky pink. They were £2.50 each

Clothes

From Store Twenty one I got some lighter coloured jeggings as I thought they’d be nice for now.

From Dorothy Perkins I got the pair of culottes that I’ve been after for ages. I’m excited about wearing these!

I also got the most tacky iphone case from a stall inside the shopping centre

Leopard print glitter? Yes please!

After getting all of this, we popped into Jessops to look at cameras and G actually bought me one! Bless him, there’s noway I could afford one at the moment and it wasn’t really essential. I totally love it and it’s made my blogging so much nicer.

Viva Glam Cyndi

I know there’s a lot of posts about Gaga and I’m sure once my hair is dark again I’ll be doing my own (it looks horrible with my red hair) but for now I am more than happy to show you Cyndi.

With all the hype about Gaga, MAC Viva Glam Cyndi lipstick was pushed to one side. Being a fan of Cyndi Lauper, I hastily added this to my basket on Monday and boy, am I glad that I did!

Lovely autographed box and casing.

Here’s what the MAC have said

“A limited edition VIVA GLAM Lipstick named after celebrity spokesperson, Cyndi Lauper. Features a high-lustre finish and a light coral-red colour. As with all VIVA GLAM products, every cent raised through the purchase of VIVA GLAM Cyndi goes to the M•A•C AIDS Fund to support the fight against HIV/AIDS.”

Make up for a good course? Thumbs up.

It’s just such a wearable red. It works well with my red hair and skin tone. I’m officially in love
