Beauty Ban is OVER!

Hello Lovelies,
I made it!! 2 whole months without buying any beauty products, to celebrate I went a little crazy in Boots. 
Usually I stick to the "drugstore brands" and don't spend over £10 on a product and that's at a push. Because it had been so long I decided I would treat myself to a few things. Including the fabulous In the Light palette from Stila.
 It's such a beautiful nude palette, it was the lighter shades which drew me in. Over the past two months I have been using MUA's Heaven and Earth palette everyday, eventually I hit pan in the lighter shades, the perfect excuse to find a pricier (£25) match.
 The shadows are so pigmented, the balance of matte and shimmer shades is also a bonus. When I bought this I didn't realise that it came with the eye liner, I don't usually wear brown liner but I will be giving it a try. 
 I also got a few things which I have had my eye on for a while, including the Maybelline 24hr Tattoo in bronze on bronze. I have been wanting this for ages and finally decided to go for it. Then there were a few impulse buys which sneakily landed in my basket, Rimmel moisture renew lipstick in the shade Glam Plum Fulham and Maybelline colorsensational in Midnight plum.  
For the past two months I have been scraping the bottom of two collection concealers so I was so pleased I could eventually buy a new one. Collection have changed the packaging of their concealers as well as the names of the shades. The shade I got is fair 1. 
As spring is around the corner I also fancied a new shade of blusher but didn't want to commit to something too pricey so I went for Rimmel's lasting finish soft colour blush in the shade Santa Rose. This is such a beautiful light colour that I feel will be great for spring time and the beginning of summer.
I also had a cheeky trip into lush and fell in love with the smell of these two. I have just finished my Snow Fairy and I'm so sad that Lush don't stock any other sweet smelling shower gels. After talking to the lovely assistants I was pleased to discover that there are some products out at the minute with the same and similar scents. 
The Fluffy Egg Ballistic is the same scent as snow fairy, it smells so sweet and delicious. (Snow fairy fans stock up on this one it wont be around for long!).
The Melting Marshmallow Moment is apparently really moisturising on the skin. I am tempted to break a bit off each of these and mix them together. 

Woah that was a long one, I also got some new clothes and hair things but I'll save them for next weeks post. I hope you enjoyed reading, if you have any suggestions or want a particular post please let me know. 
Thank You

Oh hey,
 It's my birthday tomorrow, Yay birthday! I'm turning 20 something (I actually forgot my age the other day ha ha) anyway I will be posting a birthday haul after I have received my presents/been shopping. 

I thought I would do a quick post about these beautiful Lush products I received from Momma and Poppa bear for Christmas.    

I have to admit I have never been a massive fan of Lush products, however this year my mind has been well and truly changed. A few years ago I couldn't even enter the shop as I found all of the different smells a little overwhelming, I overcame this when I went shopping for my sisters birthday present. 
Anyway enough about that, I am now a fan of Lush and was delighted to find these in my Christmas pile. 
From top left they are, Candy Mountain, Golden Wonder, Melting Snowman and a cheeky bath shot of Golden Wonder working it's magic oo er. 
So far I have only used Candy Mountain and Golden Wonder. 
I have to say that Golden Wonder was my favorite it was amazing, with it's little stars and colour changing, it smelt fab and left my skin feeling so soft. I would definitely give this one a 10/10. 
Tonight I have used Candy Mountain, I have to say I was surprised at how much of it I had to use to make sufficient bubbles, I may like my bubbles a little OTT though. It smells lovely, almost good enough to eat. Before using it I've stored it in my clothes drawers (in the wrapper) but my clothes have also been smelling lovely. Over all I would give this a 8/10 just because of the lack of bubbles. 
I know that these products are no longer available in the shops but if you are like me and save them for a little while this post may be useful. 
What are your favorite Lush products?
