So, to begin with I nipped into boots to re-purchase the Loreal Nude Magique CC Cream Anti-Dullness (£9.99). I was sent a sample of this product a few months ago, and absolutely fell in love with it! The consistency is perfect for summer, giving just a light coverage that can be built up or even mixed with foundation to allow more coverage. I've just been wearing this one its own with just a touch of concealer, and it's been brilliant! I also thought, seeing as I loved the CC Cream so much, I should try a Loreal concealer. I went for the Touche Magique True Match Anti-Fatigue Illuminating Concealer (£8.19). I haven't given this a try yet but my fingers a crossed for good things! As there was a 3 for 2 offer on Loreal products at the time, for my free product I chose a Glam Shine Miss Candy Lipgloss in the shade Tart Lollipop. It comes out quite sheer on the lips with just a hint of a coral colour. Perfect for everyday use in the summer!
I then had a search around on boots online shop and, decided to treat myself to a few different things, not available at the store near my home. I've been wanting to try out the Maybelline Baby Lips for ages, since seeing reviews on youtube. Though I've heard the ones in the UK are a different (and not as good) formula to the ones available in the US. I got the flavours Peach Kiss, Pink Punch, and Intense Care (all £2.99). There was again, a 3 for 2 offer on so I only paid £5.98 for all three. I also bought myself a Balmi Lipbalm in the flavour Coconut (usual price £4.99, but there was £2 off so I paid £2.99). I saw the kardashians using this so when I realised I could buy it in the UK I had to get it! So far I am really impressed with it, the packaging is so cute and it feels really moisturising on my troublesome lips.
Continuing with my online purchases, I really wanted to see what the Sinful Colors Nail Polishes were like, after seeing a good review about them. I chose the colours, Cinderella (baby blue with pink sparkles), Island Coral (a very pale, pinky coral) and Bali Mist ( a sort of metallic looking purple). I'm really excited to try them out!
For my third group of purchases from Boots I went to a bigger one not far from me which stock a much larger variety of products. I had to re-purchase my much loved (previously mentioned) Barry M Yellow Topaz Glitter (£2.99) and saw there was another offer on Barry M Nail Paints. It was spend £6 and get a new limited edition nail paint for free. I'd wanted to get another Gelly (£3.99) colour anyway so decided to buy the colour Prickly Pear, in order to get the free limited edition Yellow (it has no fancy name?).
Finally I had to catch up on 'essentials' and decided to try out a new deodorant. I've been more into using roll-on deodorant in the past months, it just seems to work more effectively and I don't get a mouthful of deodorant every morning. Dove have brought out new scented deodorants, and I chose the Cucumber and Green Tea (£2.35). It does smell really lovely and works well, I'll probably use this as my all-round product now. Then for a handbag essential, Wet Ones, because I'm that one person who always spills things/drink explodes etc. These Be Zingy wipes (£1.15 or 2 for £2) smell so fresh and are just lovely and handy in summer. My other essentials, that I would recommend to anyone, especially for this time of year are the Batiste Dry Shampoo Tropical Scent (£2.99), Maybelline The Falsies in Blackest Black (£7.99) and Boots Botanics Rosewater Toning Spritz (£4.99).
If you want any in-depth reviews of any products mentioned in my haul then please feel free to request them. I love shopping in Boots and especially love searching for bargains. Remember to always take advantage of what's on offer and if something isn't on offer one week, it's likely to be the following week. Also, make sure to check your receipts if you shop in-store, there are loads of vouchers given away to take advantage of. For one of these purchases I used a 'Double Your Points' voucher, and then I got two more vouchers after that purchase as well!
