Fabulous Day & Fabulous Haul!

Good Afternoon Bloggies!! I've had a fab day today. I met up with one of my best girls Louise as she is going away to Majorca for a week on Saturday...jealous! We went to Nandos for a meal and a gossip which was lovely. Then we went for a mosey around the shops which turned into a bit of a spending spree!


We spent ages in Boots testing all the Revlon Lip Butters because I've been dying to try them! I committed the cardinal sin of using the testers on my lips...but I did wipe them with a tissue first! After trying pretty much the whole selection I decided that nudes/browns are more suited to my skin tone, and because I couldn't decide between 'Creme Brûlée' and 'Pink Truffle' I got them both! AND because good old Boots have a 3 for 2 on I got a felt tip eye liner worth £6.99 for free! Bargain :)

The top two pics are of my ASOS order (saved for another post!) and my bargain earrings that only cost me 98p due to some leftover cash on a gift card! The bottom two pics are of my free felt tip eyeliner pen, and my new 'Peep Show' mascara by 17 (which I admit lured me in by it's gorgeous packaging!) Because I spent over £6 on the mascara, I got a free "fest of all kit" worth £26!

The box was cardboard with a pink ribbon handle, and the products all wrapped up in green tissue paper. I got an instant glow bronzer in a medium shade which I plan to save for my friends wedding at the end of the month. I got a tropical nail polish which was an orange/coral colour, and I gave that to Louise as it looks like a nice colour for her tootsies as she lounges by the pool next week! I also got a black eyeliner which is an absolute godsend as my MAC one is getting a bit stubby! All in all, a very good day indeed.

  3. Thanks hun :) I'd say to make your eyes stand out define them with eyeshadow according to your eye shape, what I do is basically look at your face in a mirror and see where on your eye the darker shadow falls- thats where you can apply a darker eye shadow. That was probably a weird explanation lol!

    And re: applying liquid eye liner. Decide whats easier for your, starting from the inner corner of your eye, or starting with the wing. I have a tutorial on how to do it, starting with the wing here: http://yolandaas.blogspot.co.uk/2012/01/how-i-do-my.htmlc

    Good luck :D xxx

  4. I have the same Revlon lippie, Creme Brulee. It's heavenly! Especially if you have your smokey eyes.

    I also adore your Revlon Colorstay eyeliner. It looks better when you reapply it throughout the day. :)

    It looks like you had a great day! :)
