SuperDrug Haul

Yes, I've been shopping a fair bit lately. I thought I'd treat myself, and why not. We all need a treat now and again, don't we.
Superdrugs a shop i don't that often go into, mainly because i work for Boots, so just tend to buy things i need while I'm at work, or with my Staff Discount. But i have noticed, Superdrug does have some better offers than boots, and they also carry a different range of make up brands, One of them being Sleek, my favourite highstreet brand. So on the occasion i pop in, i do usually end up buying something.
This time though, so many things caught my eye!

My first purchase, and main reason for heading to Superdrug was to pick up the new MUA, Undress Your Skin Highlighter. One of my local Superdrugs was completely sold out! Its been muchly raved about across the Blogsphere, as its apparently pretty good dupe for the much loved MAC Mineralize Skin Finish, I'm unsure of a particular shade having not tried them before.
I always have a look at the Sleek stand if I'm in Superdrug, as i said previously they are my favourite high street make up brand, I particularly LOVE their i-Divine Palettes, they are incredibly pigmented and have the most stunning colours in. I've not seen this palette before, so I'm not sure if its new, but picked up the SnapShots Palette, so many bright colours! its going to be perfect for summer.
And my last purchase was very much on impulse, and its from a new brand called B. i was really intrigued, and they were running a free gift offer if you spent £10, so i thought that'd be the perfect way to try out a range of products from the brand, as they aren't just MakeUp but skincare as well. To spend £10 i chose two lipsticks, i was there for ages deciding what products and shades to buy, there is so much choice! The other great thing about B. is that they are suitable for Vegans & Vegetarians, and all the products carry the jumping bunny logo, meaning they are certified by Cruelty Free International. 

This is just a quick post, to show you what goodies i picked up, and i plan to do a full post on each purchase.
Have you treated yourself to anything lately?

Lots of Love

Sleek Palettes

Over the past couple of weeks I've found myself go from zero sleek palettes to THREE! I bought a couple from some girls over on Beauty Box Swaps and i bought one from a blog sale. I thought I'd just do a quick post to show you which palettes i got, show you some swatches and stuffs.
I'm pretty sure I'm way behind with sleek palettes, they've been around a while yet I've only just invested in my first. I'm already desperate to get to superdrug and get more!
So here are the ones i got...


Top Palette - Graphite
Middle - Oh So Special
Bottom - Au Naturel

Graphite

Oh So Special

Au Naturel

I love how pigmented the colours are and how velvety they feel to use. The Top palette (Graphite) is perfect for creating a gorgeous smokey eye, with the middle and especially the bottom more suitable for a day time look or just subtle make up.
The Au Naturel palette is part of the nude collection, so is perfect for everyday, minimal make up wear.
I can't wait to try out different make up looks with them, and i can't believe it's taken me this long to discover them! I already want to get down to superdrug and buy more! I've got my eye on the matte ones they've just released.
These retail for £6.99 in Superdrug.

Have you discovered any great make up products lately?

Lots of Love
