I Went a Bit Wild!!

Following my initial purchases of Wet N Wild from Tesco I just couldn't help myself and went back for more. Well at £1.87 an item and on 3 for 2 who could blame me? So here's a pic of what I got this time and I'm thinking about going back for more!

New Coastal Scents Palette

About a month ago I got this new palette from Coastal Scents. I love their palettes (I have most of them lol) and their customer service is great. You always get a wee free sample too. However with the economy as it is and the exchange rate as rubbish as it is I would advise anyone in the UK to wait until this pops up on eBay to get a better deal. It is a lovely palette and worth having but it can work out very expensive at the present time. Remeber you will also have to pay customs charges. Altogether I think this palette cost me in the region of £40-45. I suppose that isn't bad considering what you get in the palette but it's just so depressing when not that long ago the pound was stronger and shopping from the States was better value.

I must do some looks with this for my blog soon!! Anyone else got this or any other CS palettes?

My New Brows

My eyebrows were in need of some attention (as were other parts of me lol) so at the weekend I had a waxing session. I also tinted my brows and lashes. I took a bit more off my brows than normal so that they are thinner than usual at the inner corner. I'm very pleased with the result. I am also wearing my new Wet n Wild eyeshadow here.

Wet n Wild at Tesco

Ok hands up who knew you could get Wet n Wild at Tesco? I just discovered this on Saturday. I was in one of the larger stores and was pleasantly surprised to see it. All the items are £1.87 (bargain or what?) and are currently on 3 for 2 so even better. This is what I bought. I'll let you know what I think of the items. I was especially pleased to get the Mega Glow!!



Anyone else seen this in their Tesco?

Primark Make Up and a new Bag

I was on a bit of a spending spree today. I decided that I need a big bag. I'm usually a tiny, non existent sort of bag person but lately I have been lusting after big bags. Today I found the perfect one. It's a good size and was only £10. It's by F&F at Tesco. I just have to move my stuff into it. Although come to think of it the contents of my tiny bag will be lost in there. I'm sure it won't be long til it's filled with all sorts of rubbish lol!!



So I also picked up some of the Primark make up. It's such a bargain at £1 per item. I got a palette (well I had to make up for not finding the Sleek palette didn't I? (see previous post)) and some pigments. The pigment jars come in packs of 2 so effectively they are 50p each. I'll report back soon on how I get on.



Anyone else tried Primark make up?

Just For Fun

Today I went on a quest for the Sleek Palette. It wasn't in my local Superdrug and I'm sure I have seen it somewhere in real life lately. Anyway I decided to visit the Superdrug in the next town, convincing myself that it must have been there (how sad am i? lol!). It wasn't there either but there was a Primark so I decided to get the kids some summer stuff. My little girl (who is 4) saw a fake hair type thing. It's like a bobble with hair coming out if it. She really wanted it and as it was only £1 I got it for her. When I got home I thought it would be fun to try it out. So here I am in all my £1 fake hair glory.



From the back it looks ridiculous as there isn't enough hair to hide my own hair but I had good fun prancing around the house in it for a while. Just have to remember not to go out in it though! It was nice to have the feel of long hair and now I want to grow mine again.


The sunglasses I bought to actually wear outside. I'm not really a sunglasses person but these were £2 so I couldn't resist!!
