Hello :)!
Popped into town this morning with my mum and bought some things from Benefit and Miss Selfridge!

I have wanted the Benefit things for a while now so I was rather happy after buying them today! My Mum bought Peppy Princess by Vera Wang for herself today which I was quite jealous of but oh well! 

1. Tickling Stripe Shorts - Miss Selfridge £26.00
2. Cream Pleat Crop Tee - Miss Selfridge £28.00
3. That Gal Make-Up primer - Benefit £18.50
4. Dandelion Face Powder - Benefit £21.50

Total - £94.00

I also got given some free tester samples from the benefit cleansing range so I'll let you know what they are like soon too!

Have you bought any nice clothes or any nice make-up recently?

Hello! I've seen similar posts about people saying what their favorite makeup products are from different makeup brands such as benefit and MAC so I thought I would do my favorite makeup products form different brands!

Here are my favorite makeup products!

1. Dandelion Powder - Benefit £21.50
2. Erase Paste - Benefit £19.50
3. That Gal Primer - Benefit £18.50
4. Extralasting Black Eyeliner - Avon £6.00
5. Soap and Glory Face Powder - Boots £12.50

Total - £78.00


What are you favorite makeup brands? Are they all from the same brand or different ones like me? :)

Also found a lovely Marc Jacobs giveaway which you can enter at here. Good luck!

Two lovely giveaways I found!

Hello, just doing a little giveaway post!

A friend sent me the link to these two wonderful giveaways! One is a sigma brush and the other is a mixture of makeup and beauty products so they are both great!

Im blogging about both so instead of doing two posts I thought it would be better to do it one just the one post!

This is the first one which you can enter here.


Makeup and beauty products!

And the second one which you can enter here.


Sigma F80 Brush!

I advise that you enter them, and if you do good luck!
