Collective Haul | Part 1

Recently, all I've done is shop... I'm not normally a massive shopper and only purchase things every now and then, however in the past month I have bought a lot! Seeing as there are quite a few purchases I would like to share, I've decided to split this collective haul into two parts.


The first things I bought were Baby Lips! I've already got several, but since the electro range was released, I got two in the shades 'Pink Shock' and 'Strike A Rose'. They're both amazing colours and are so soft!

I also decided to try out the Revlon Colourburst Lip Butters, and I can honestly say that I'm in love with them! I bought three in the shades 'Sorbet', 'Wild Watermelon' and 'Sweet Tart'. 
The colours are really highly pigmented and pretty much stain your lips so you only need to reapply it twice or three times a day. At £8 each they're slightly on the pricey side and you don't get much in them, but I would definitely recommend them due to their quality. 

I've already got the Real Techniques Core Collection makeup brushes, and so decided to expand my collection and purchase the Starter Set for eyes. You get five brushes in the set, each with their own use. The brushes are great quality and help to apply the makeup effortlessly and precisely!

Deluxe crease brush, base shadow brush, brow brush, accent brush, fine liner brush

A sea salt spray is something I've been in need of for a while now, and so I decided to purchase Superdrugs own Style Expertise Salt Infusion Surf Spray. I haven't used it much recently due to 'beach hair' being more of a summer hairstyle, but I do like the results it gives when I do use it!

Mascaras are something I'm pretty fussy with, as a great mascara can enhance your eyes greatly whereas a poor one can leave your eyes looking 'spidery' and can essentially ruin your entire makeup... I've read some good reviews about the L'Oreal Paris Miss Manga mascara, and decided to give it a shot. It's simply amazing! It gives my lashes great volume, and makes them appear longer and fuller. It's hardly clumpy, and I just love it! 




Finally, The Pointless Book! Anyone who knows anything about YouTubers and specifically Alfie Deyes, knows that Alfie released a book called The Pointless Book. It's similar to the Wreck My Journal books, but is interactive through a phone app which displays videos and exclusive content for certain pages. Its a lot of fun, and something that I'll definitely treasure and look back at in years to come. 


Look out for Part 2 coming soon!

Best Weekend Ever!

Last weekend was literally the busiest weekend I've had since... well, forever! It was also the best weekend I've had in a long time, which is something that was definitely overdue, and something that brightened my mood greatly! 

On Saturday, I ventured over to Liverpool for the day with my Mum and sister for some well-needed retail therapy! I spent most of my time in Forever21, after going to EAT for lunch. It was nice to get out for the day, although I'm not so sure my purse would agree!

That night, I was invited to an 18th party by my friend Farris and I took Connor along as a plus one. It was such a great night and I had an amazing time!





On Sunday, my family and I went for Sunday lunch before I headed off to my friend Kerri's 18th bowling and laser quest party! It was so much fun, and despite the fact I suck at bowling, I didn't come last for once! *three cheers for me* We then played a game of laser quest and were split into two teams. The red team got 547 points, whereas my team, the green team, got a massive 2,448 points! *does victory dance*
After some good food was eaten and many selfies were taken, it was time to go home and mentally prepare myself for sixth form the next day... yay...

Kerri's Surprise 18th!

Next weekend, one of my best friends, Kerri, is turning 18! To celebrate, a surprise birthday meal was organised by her Mum, and I can honestly say that when she walked through the restaurant doors, Kerri was definitely surprised!
We went to a Greek restaurant which was really nice, and the party consisted of Kerri and her family, as well as myself and my friends Alex, Emma and Joe. It was a lovely night, filled with laughter and good company!
