Monthly Empties (January 2013)

Hullo Ladies! 

I've decided to start writing some 'Monthly Empties' posts, mainly because I'm trying my hardest to go through the endless amount of products I have around the place but also because I love reading them from other blogs. Again...this is probably because I'm so nosy :-) 

St Ives Blemish Fighting Face Scrub - I love this stuff, I've already bought a new tube of it! 

Herbal Essence Wild Violet and Pomegranate Hair Mask - I'm a big fan of Herbal Essence hair care but I didn't find anything special about this one. It had a nice smell but I wouldn't repurchase. 

Gorgeous By Gok Body Wash - Smells good but I wouldn't repurchase any time soon. 

Armani Code EDP - Absolutely love this perfume and I'm ready to start on my new bottle of it! If you haven't tried it yet, you need to! 

The Body Shop Love ECT... EDP - Great day time scent. I wen't through It quickly. It's an amazing quality perfume for the price and even better when you can get it on sale. I will re-purchase it some day but I have way too many other perfumes to get though first :-) 

The Body Shop Love ECT ... Body Wash - I've recently been trying to get through the amount of shower/bath products I've bought over the last few months, I choose this one because I knew I was nearly finished with the perfume so I wanted to see how they would smell layered together. It's a nice smell and does smell a lot like the perfume but It's not as fresh or as long lasting. 

Dove Go Fresh Anti-Perspirant in Cucumber and Green Tea - I loved this when I first bought it but it got bored quickly. It started to smell too much like some kind of Febreze. As soon as I realized that I became paranoid about wearing it. It is a lovely smell all the same. I won't be re-purchasing but I have bough a different scent from the same line. It is a good deodorant though so I recommend the Dove range. 

So that's everything I used up in January :-)

 I wonder what products will be on next months post !

Recent Haul (10/10/12) Boots, New Look & Magazine Freebies

Hullo Lovely Ladies!!

So this is my most recent haul post. 

Today  I went shopping with the family to pick up some things...It wasn't long before we all realised we were searching for the same thing....perfume! We ended up spending most of the day in Boots. Which I have no problem with as its a favourite hobby of mine to try to test every fragrance in the store :-) 

They have some amazing perfume offers on at the moment so I suggest you go take a look here if you're on the lookout for a new one :-) 

I picked up this Giorgio Armani perfume called Idole d'Armani

It's a gorgeous scent. It was also half price! 

I bought the 50ml EDP for £29 

My Mam and Nan both picked up Anais Anais which was also on offer :-) 

We stopped in New Look which I have to say is one of my favourite clothing stores. I'm always buying something from there. 

Sadly they didn't have a lot of sale products left in the store but me and my mam noticed they had a good deal on socks. As it's getting colder now, socks are a must for me. 

You get to pick 3 pairs you like for just £4.

I also did some Ebay shopping last weekend and one of the product came in the post this morning. 

I've been obsessing over the company Demeter for a long time now. It's understandable when they have scent names such as "Dirt" "Thunderstorm" and "Gin and Tonic" 

I finally found a couple on Ebay. Sex On The Beach and Wild Blackberries. Wild Blackberries hasn't got here yet but I hope to god I like it more than Sex On The Beach. 

I won't go too much into it now as I'm going to be reviewing them soon. Lets just say I'm not as happy with it as I had hoped! 

Today I also Picked up some Magazines. 

Marie Claire and Instyle. 

Marie Claire this month are giving away:

• A free 30ml L'Occitane Hand Cream *four scents to choose from* I choose Mango Flower. It smells gorgeous! 
•  50ml tube of Dove Colour Radiance Conditioner.

InStyle are giving free 4ml samples of Benefit products you have a choice of :

• Cha Cha Tint
• Sun Beam
• Benetint

Also last week I made a post asking you all what your favourite perfume was,  I had some amazing comments so I just want to say thank you very much ladies! 

I now have a good idea on what my next few perfume purchases will be!

You may have also noticed from the first picture a box of Galaxy Minstrels.....what can I say? It just had to be done ;-)   

Hope you have all had a great day!
