Weekend Haul - Revlon Colorstay, LIp Butters, John Frieda.

Hullo Ladies,

I went shopping yesterday and I have to admit it was really needed. I spend most of my time at home with my Mam so It's nice to get out every so often and do something different. 

I bought quite a few things that I've been wanting to try for a long time now. 

Even before I went out I knew I was going to be buying a new foundation, I've recently finished my Rimmel Match Perfection foundation, which I'll be reviewing soon, so I was in need of some more. 

I love trying out new ones and at first I was going to pick up the Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum which is very popular but I wasn't sure on the lightest shade, it seemed slightly too yellow for me. 

I decided to test the colour range for the Revlon Colorstay foundations, this foundation is very famous and I know a lot of beauty vloggers/bloggers who have it as their holy grail foundation. I don't know why I never tried it until now. Maybe I was put off because of the price tag, £12.49 is quite expensive for a drugstore foundation, but as all the makeup is on 3 for 2 in Boot's and the lightest shade "Ivory" was actually extremely close to my natural skin tone, I decided to bite the bullet. 

I also picked up two of the new Revlon Lip Butters in Pink Lemonade and Juicy Papaya.

Another thing I've been meaning to pick up for a few weeks up now is a mint shade nail polish. There was so many to choose from but in the end I choose the Maybelline Mint For Life nail polish.  

We stopped in Asda and I noticed that this Sublime Mousse hair dye had been put on the clearance shelf and was down to just £1.......I know it was probably a mistake but I'm not gonna tempt fate.....It's a nice colour too! 

Next up was Superdrug and I noticed that they had offers on the John Frieda line, I've been meaning to try the range for a long time now so I picked up the Full Repair Shampoo and Conditioner for £6.

My nan loves Matalan so we had a look around and I found a "#NERD" t -shirt, I actually love it and for only £6 It was a great purchase. I have always wanted to be that girl who wears ironic and funny t-shirts. I dunno...I just love those people!

So that's all I bought this weekend! 

Hope you all have an amazing Sunday I think I'm going to spend the rest of mine watching SKY Disney :-)

The "I Heart Spring" Tag!

Hullo Ladies! 

I love a good tag and after seeing this one make the rounds on Youtube I decided to give it a go! 

1. Favorite spring nail polish?

I always need a pop of colour when Spring finally gets here so I'd have to say my favourite pink nail polish...Leighton Denny Plush Pink which you can see my review of here. 

2. What is your must-have lip product this spring?

Revlon Lip Butters! 

I only own two and my favourite for Spring must be Sweet Tart. It's a gorgeous colour on the lips and I'm in love with it! 

3. Show us your favorite spring dress!

I don't wear a lot of dresses mainly I'll wear them on a night out but I'm determined to find a gorgeous light blue dress with a white lace peter pan collar this Spring/Summer. I think that would just look so girly and beautiful. Don't know If i'd be able to pull it of though ;-) 

4. What's your favorite flower?

As a welsh woman my answer should really be the daffodil and although I love them, my favourite flower is in fact the chrysanthemum.

5. Favorite spring scarf/accessory?

I've been into statement necklaces recently and not long ago I picked up this one. I think It would be gorgeous to wear on Easter Sunday!

6. What spring trend(s) are you most excited about this year? (Makeup, fashion or both!)

Fashion wise I love to add some floral print to my clothing. It just makes me smile!  With makeup I love to add a bit more colour into my routine when Spring is here. A brighter lipstick or maybe a coloured liner. 

7. Favorite spring candle OR Favorite seasonal food in spring?

Hmmm food that I enjoy in spring. To me the easy answer would be a cadbury's creme egg :-P Seriously though I think it would be Tuna Pasta Salad......then the creme egg! 

8. Favorite perfume for spring?

My parents bought me this Marc Jacobs Oh Lola perfume for Christmas but to me it screams 'Spring' so I'm looking forward to wearing this in the coming months! It's a gorgeous fresh scent and I talked about it here in my Top 5 Perfumes Post. 

9. What is spring like where you live?

For the last few years we've had a warm spring in Wales but so far all I've seen is rain and snow! I'm hoping in the next few month's it will start to warm up like it usually does :-) 

10. What's your favorite thing about spring?

Probably the fact that I can start to get more excited about using colours in my clothing and makeup and the fact that some time soon I might actually be able to leave the house without a coat....sad I know! 

11. Are you a spring cleaner?

Even though my room is usually messy I hate clutter. I'm not a hoarder, if it doesn't mean anything to me or doesn't have a useful purpose then it's going in the bin!  I guess that means I'm kind of a spring cleaner because I like to spend time throwing out rubbish! I'm not OCD about it though :-) 

12. Any plans for spring break or an upcoming vacation?

 I'm looking forward to Easter weekend! Means I get to eat chocolate without feeling so guilty...always a plus! That's about it though. Yeah...I'm that boring ;-) 

So that's the I heart Spring tag! 

I'm tagging all of you to do it :-P Leave me your link if you do! I'd love to read your answers.
