Collective Beauty Haul


Hi Ladies. 

In the last few weeks I've managed to pick up a few beauty products and I just thought I'd tell you what I'd got and where from :-) 


 - Hair Products - 
Herbal Essences Beautiful Ends Split End Protection Cream
I bought this in the Superdrug Clearance for £1.99, It smells really good and I really like it so far. I'll be reviewing it for you soon! 

Batiste Tropical Dry Shampoo
This is a re-purchase for me, I love Batiste Dry Shampoo. My roots get oily very quickly and this bad boy allows me some extra time so that I'm not washing my hair every day. I picked this 200ml bottle up in ASDA for £2 



- Skincare - 
St.Ives Dry and Sensitive Skin Gentle Facial Cleansing Wipes
I found these on offer in Superdrug and I really like them, I usually just use baby wipes to take off my makeup but I'm having trouble with my skin being dry this Winter, so I thought I'd gives these a try. 

St. Ives Naturally Clear Apricot Scrub (Blemish Fighting)
This is a another re-purchase for me! I love everything about this scrub, it's great for taking off making and doesn't dry out my skin. I also think it does help to prevent blackheads and blemishes. Not completely but it helps, which for the price is great! Again I bought this is Superdrug on offer for £1.99.




 - Makeup - 

GOSH X-Ceptional Wear Foundation in 12 Natural 
This is my third tube of this foundation, I love the matte finish, the coverage and the shades you can get. They do one of the best Porcelain shades for drugstore in my opinion. I picked up Natural this time though for the up coming months. I bought this in Superdrug for £7.99

Natural Collection Pressed Powder in Warm 
I decied last week that I needed a new pressed powder after I used up all my Laura Geller Balance and Brighten. I'd heard some good things about the Natural Collection range from Boot's at at £1.99 I decided to give them a try. I really like it so far and will be reviewing soon :-) 

MUA Extreme Curl Mascara 
I needed a new mascara and wanted to try out some of the MUA ones, I have to say I'm not very impressed so far. I'll be talking about it more in another post. I picked this up in Superdrug for £2

MUA Lip Boom in It's A Situation. 
I've been loving the 'vampy' look these last few weeks but I don't have any dark lip colours that I really love, then I remember that I had seen a post on this particular colour months back and really liked the look of it. I'm very impressed, I love it! I picked this up in Superdrug for £3. 


So that's everything I've bought over the last few weeks, I have some lovely new things to review :-)

REVIEW - Boots Natural Collection Body Spray's









Hey ladies, these are the Boots Natural Collection Body Sprays.

I have three of them, Wild Strawberry, Mango and Papaya and Vanilla.

These are great if your stuck for perfume and want a cheaper alternative.

I find them long lasting, around the same longevity as a eau de toilette, 

They are all 150ml each and are £2  on the Boots website, They often have a "3 for2" offer on these which is also a plus :-) 


Vanilla 

This is a lovely sweet smell, with maybe a hint of coconut, It reminds me of The Body Shops vanilla Eau de toilette . 

I have had a few good compliments with this fragrance the best one yet was off my brother "Why do you smell like cake?" bahahaha


Wild Strawberry 

This one is probably my least favorite, like the Vanilla it's very sweet but  I'm not that big a fan of  most strawberry scents because I find they smell like child's medicine :-(  


Mango and Papaya 

This is my favorite out of the two, I'm a big fan of mango scents and this doesn't disappointing,  it's a very fresh and fruity smell and great for a hot summers day.  



I really love these and plan to get more, they smell exactly how they are described and are super inexpensive


Some other scents you can get are:

Ice Musk
Passion fruit
Samphire and Sea Minerals
Apple and Lime *I really want this one* 


Have you tried any of the Boots Nautral Collection Body Sprays? Love them or hate them? :-) 

Thanks, 
Linzi xx

REVIEW: Boots Natural Collection Juicy Lips lip gloss




Hello Ladies,

I have been thinking about future blog posts today and I realised that I was missing some of my favorite products so I'm very eager to introduce to you two lip glosses that seem to spend most of their time in my handbag or jeans pocket :)




Sherbert Fizz By Natural Collection



This is a pink lipgloss that has tiny shimmers, its smells lovely and sweet and goes on smooth without being sticky. I find it looks great on its own or over a pink lipstick. The Natural Collection is a very inexpensive brand from Boots that have a lot of great products in its line.





Fondant by Natural Coollection





It is a creamy, peach nude and I often wear it over my GOSH Darling lipstick as that is way to pale for me on its own. The gives it a lovely peachy tone. Again it smells lovely and goes on smooth without being sticky.


I have been buying Natural Collection since I was young and I still go back to it at times, for the price you can not beat the quality.


These lip glosses are priced at £1.99 but are often on a "3 for 2" offer or a buy 3 for £5 offer :)

Have you tried Natural Collection?

Thanks, Linzi xx

Boots Haul





My recent Boots Haul


Hey Everyone,

The first thing I picked up on my trip to Boots last week was the Harajuku Lovers "Love" Perfume. I have been wearing it all week, It's a lot like my other HL perfume in "Music" but a little bit more floral I find. This was on offer in boots for just £10 and I really like it so far :)


Then I noticed that they had a "3 for 2" offer on thousands of lines so I had a look around and picked up The Soap and Glory - The Righteous Butter Body Lotion, I needed a new one because my last bottle of it ran out about a month ago and I've been missing it. It's probably one of my favorite moisturizer because it gives you a heck load of moisture but no grease and sinks into your skin very quickly. Also smells real good. Yay!

Next I bought the Mango and Papaya Shower gel. I havn't used this yet but it smells amazing and you can't go wrong for just £2.

I've seen a lot of people with the Natural Collection body Spray so I thought I'd check them out and the Mango and Papaya one is my favorite out of the lot. It's extreamly fruity and fresh and I find it lasts a good amount of time on skin and clothes. 

 So thats my haul. I better stop shopping  soon, I'm saving up for a new Laptop, perferbly one thats Blue :)

Thanks, Linzi x
