Avon Haul!!!!!

It is once again, that time of the month when i do my Avon Haul of the month. It is one of my favourite hauls to do as i love the Avon products, and I'm super excited to show you what i have got. I'm just going to point out that five of the items that i have, i actually don't know the prices for as they came in a Makeup Bargain bag, also I'm not sure if they are discontinued products or not, but i shall find out and let you know. I will leave the link to the Avon Online shop in case you want to check that out...Enjoy...

Free Beauty Pack 

 So the first thing i got was this beauty pack, this was an exclusive offer with the first brochure/campaign of this month. What you get is a lip gloss and a nail polish with a makeup bag. I chose the romantic pastels pack, but as you can see i don't actually have the lip gloss as it is coming with the next order. The nail polish is in a super pretty shade called romance which is a beautiful pastel pink-lilac that i can't wait to try.

Ultra Colour Lipstick - Hollywood Siren - £5.25 Discontinued 

 The second thing i ordered was this lipstick from the Sale brochure. This is the Hollywood Collection Ultra Color lipstick in the shade Hollywood Siren. This has now been discontinued and won't appear in the brochures again. I think i have an addiction to red lipsticks guys, i have at least 8 of them, ha-ha. This is a beautiful dark red shade which i can't wait to experiment with.

Pore Penetrating black mineral mask- £3.00

 The next thing i ordered is this face mask. It's the black mineral pore penetrating mask. I love the Avon skincare ranges as they do many a product to suit you're skin type. This was raved about on the Avon Connects website so i thought i would pick it up and try it.

Avon Colortrend Boost It Mascara - £2.50

 This mascara is a new addition to Avon's Colortrend range. Colortrend is an affordable range with some awesome products, many of which i have tried out over the years i have been buying from Avon. I really like the Colortrend mascara's and I can't wait to try this out.

Colortrend Lip Stix - Just Peachy - £2.50

 The final thing before i show you the products from the Bargain bag, is this lip product from Colortrend. It's the Lip Stix in the shade Just peachy which is a stunning everyday lip colour, especially if you want a natural look. I've tried the Lip Stix before in the shade Coral You Later and i honestly didn't like it. But hopefully this one might just change my opinion. I will let you know how i get on with it, in a later post.

Now onto the Bargain bag goodies!!! YAY!!! I absolutely love picking up the bargain bags from the Sale Brochures. I always pick up the makeup one, but i really want to pick up the Jewelry and Sale one as well. I will probably do so with the next brochure that has a Sale booklet. Anyway..I'm rambling..oops, The makeup bargain bags, give you a selection of five products from the Avon ranges, that add up to approximately £25, and the bets thing is, it reminds me of those lucky bags you would get as a kid, because you don't know what you are going to get. Here's what I received in the bag...

True Colour Eyeshadow Duo - Powerful Copper 

 First Impressions of this, It's really nice. The product has True Colour technology meaning that whatever the colour is in the pan or bullet (Lipstick, eyeshadow etc) that is the colour that you see on you, if you get what I mean. I don't like when you buy a product and the colour is slightly different than what you actually get. Anyway, these colours are a reddish orange copper shade and a black. It's given me an idea for an eyeshadow look.

Ideal Flawless Light Foundation - Fair 

 The next thing is a foundation. Now I'm not a big fan of the Avon foundation as my shade tends to look a bit too dark for my skin tone. I swatched this on my jaw and it completely matches my skin tone. You could barely see it on my skin. I'll definitely be using this.

Nailwear Pro+ - Lucky Penny 

 The first of three nail polishes. This is the Nailwear Pro+ in the colour Lucky Penny. This is a similar shade to the colour in the eyeshadow Duo. I'll definitely try this one out once I've gotten the rest of my false nails off ha-ha.

Nailwear Pro+ - Garden Green 

 The second Nail polish is in the colour Garden Green. I've never really tried green nail polish, so i can't wait to see how this looks. It's a really nice shade for spring.

Speed Dry Nail Enamel - Smokey Plumes

The final product is the Speed Dry Nail Enamel in the colour Smokey Plumes. I'm going to keep this shade for Autumn/Winter as it's a dark grey-plum colour and i think it will look better then than now. 

That's all for today's post. I will be back next Saturday with my work experience post, as I can't upload during the week. Thanks for reading. I'll leave my social media links below for you to check out as well as the Avon Online Shop.

Avon Haul!!!

Hi Everyone!!! This is part two of my double update and....it's an Avon Haul!!!! I have been a fan of Avon for the longest time, I've loved pretty much everything I've tried from the brand. It's definitely worth checking their shop out at http://avonshop.co.uk/ . I apologise for my background on these pictures, i had to use the living room table (oops)

Avon Haul!!! 

Ultra Colour Absolute Lipstick - Red Velvet - £4.00 

The first thing that i picked out was this gorgeous lipstick. It's the Ultra Colour Absolute lipstick in the shade Red Velvet. Its a beautiful shade of red, it glides on smoothly, the colour payoff is gorgeous and i love the pink packaging.

Ultra Colour Matte Lipstick - Matte Peach - £7.50

The seond lip product i picked out was the Ultra Colour Matte lipstick in the shade Matte Peach. I've been wanting a matte peach lippy for ages and when i found this one i literally fell in love. the packaging is simple but pretty, the colour is gorgeous and the payoff is amazing. i'd definitely recommend this

True Colour EyeShadow Duo - Warm Cashmere - £3.50

The third item i picked up was this eye shadow duo in the shade Warm Cashmere. The colours are perfect if you want a simple, understated eye makeup look, and the colour payoff is fantastic.

Gel Finish Nail Enamel - Wine and Dine Me - £3.50 

I currently can't paint my nails as i have acrylic nails at the moment, but as soon as i can paint them i will in this shade. I'm a huge fan of Avon's gel nail enamels as they last for over a week and the colours are stunning. This one caught my eye because of it's lovely burgundy colour and its name which i found quite funny.

Spectralash Mascara - Black - £5.00

The final makeup product i bought was this mascara. I haven't tried it out yet as I've been using my Urban Decay perversion mascara which i love. This caught my eye for the fact that you can change up the volume of the mascara, i haven't used a mascara like this before, but i'm sure Rimmel did a mascara like this and i'm not sue what it's called. (I will find out) . I'm interested to see how things go with this and i shall do a review if you would like me to.

body care - 2 shower gels, 2 bubble baths and a hand wash - 5 for £5

The final few products I picked out were in an offer in one of the previous brochures for 2015. It was a 5 for £5 pounds offer on body care so i picked out two bubble baths in the scents strawberry sorbet and dark orchid and raspberry, two shower gels in the scents Lagoon and garden of Eden and a hand wash in the scent Lagoon. I haven't used any of these yet but they all smell gorgeous. 

Thats all from me for now, i'll be back in the next few days with part four of my university series. I'll leave my social links below for you to follow me.

Book Haul!!!!

New Books!!!

Hi Everyone, I have a double update for you today, and they are both hauls!!! Over the past few weeks i have been collecting books that i have been wanting to read for a while. The Majority of them are by one of my favourite authors, Cassandra Clare - writer of the mortal instruments books. The others are two books i've been wanting for ages and the other two are style and beauty books by Lauren Conrad - which i wanted because she is one of my style and role models. 

The Infernal Devices - Cassandra Clare 

 The first three books are a trilogy by Cassandra Clare. these are the prequel to The Mortal Instruments Series that she wrote. I'm a huge fan of The Mortal Instruments and i definitely can't wait to get started reading these.

The Bane Chronicles - Cassandra Clare 

If there is a single character i love from Cassandra Clare's books, it is most definitely Magnus Bane. He is the Chief high Warlock of Brooklyn and hes fabulous. This book has several short stories of some of Magnus's adventures throughout his 300 years of living. Thanks Cassie for creating such a fabulous character!!!!

The ShadowHunter's Codex - Cassandra Clare 

The final book by Cassie Clare is The ShadowHunter's Codex. This is featured in the books and every ShadowHunter has one. Clare has written this as Heroine Clary Fray's copy, with notes in the margins from her and fellow characters Jace Wayland and Simon Lewis. I have started reading this book and i honestly think its awesome (and the margin notes are hilarious)

The Maze Runner - James Dashner 

I first heard about this as a fan of The Hunger Games books and because of the Maze Runner movie. I haven't seen the movie but from what my friends have said its was brilliant. i am determined to read the book before i watch the movie so i know what to expect.

House of Night: Hunted - P.C and Kristen Cast

This book i had been wanting/needing for about three months and i hadn't had the chance to get it until now. With this series i was in a bit of a predicament before i got this book. My predicament was that i had the first four books of the series, missing book five and owned six and seven. I couldn't continue reading until i had got this book. Now i'm pretty excited to complete this epic series of twists, turns and vampyres. Most definitely worth a read for all you fantasy novel lovers.

Lauren Conrad - Beauty 

The penultimate book in this haul is by one of my style and beauty Icons, Lauren Conrad. I love how she always looks effortless and has a classic makeup look that i have found easy to recreate. The beauty book has tips and tricks, and Lauren's advice on skincare, haircare and makeup - definitely worth a read.

Lauren Conrad - Style 

The final book in this haul is also by Lauren Conrad. I've been a fan of her style since she was on the Hills. It's effortless, classy and she has a look for every occasion. This book has plenty of tips and tricks about all things fashion and she also gives you outfit ideas for any occasion. 

Thats all from me for now, i'll be back with another haul once i've uploaded this post, i'll leave my social media links below if you want to check those out and follow me. What are your favourite books? Let meknow in the comments or by twitter.
