Collective Haul - Lush, Primark & More!

Hello everyone!

I have done quite a bit of shopping recently so I am going to show you what I have picked up over the last few weeks.



I wanted to try some of the Lush Easter products but they didn't have a lot left when I went into the shop so I only picked up two things. The first thing I bought was the 'Which Came First ?' bath bomb. This smells so nice and it's quite big so I am very excited to use it.  Next I got the 'Bunch of Carrots' bubble bar. These are adorable, they smell amazing and I love the fact that you get 3 products in one. Plus you can use each bubble bar 2 or 3 times so they are great value for money.



I've recently discovered and fallen in love with super affordable makeup brands mainly MUA and Essence. I got the Essence Make Me Brow eyebrow gel in the shade 01 blondy brows which is a great dupe for the Benefit Gimme Brow. I actually prefer the Essence one because it doesn't make my brows feel crispy and it is only £2.50. I then got some products from MUA. First I picked up the transparent pressed setting powder. It's just as good as most powders. Next I got the eyebrow pencil in the shade brunette. It is a bit dark on me but the Essence brow gel lightens it a bit. Lastly I bought a lipliner in the shade caramel nougat. This lipliner is really creamy and a perfect nude shade on my skin tone.



At the same time that I bought the eyebrow gel I also bought a gel nail polish from Essence to try out. I'm not going to lie the main reason for buying this was because it is called 'Gossip Girl' (which if you haven't seen that TV show you should definitely watch it.) However it is actually a really good polish. Next I bought a makeup brush from Primark. I love the fact that it is double ended so it's two super soft brushes for one. Also from Primark I got a watch as my last watch broke. On the face of the watch it has loads of designs related to London and nature which I think is really pretty. The last thing I bought was a body spray from H & M in the scent 'Sweet Macaron.' This smells amazing and the packaging is quite small making it easy to take in my school bag.

That is everything I have bought recently. Let me know in the comments what your favourite affordable makeup brand is. Mine would be MUA as I love so many of their products.

My Phone Case Collection

Hello everyone!

A few weeks ago when I did my 'What's on my iPhone' post I wanted to show you my phone cases as well. However, if I had included them in that post it would have been really long. So I am going to show you them today.



This is the newest addition to my collection. This case is a plain copper one with a mirrored effect. It's really nice but is very prone to scratches and finger prints. It is around £3 from New Look.



I got this phone case at the same time that I got my phone. This was limited edition merch from Gabbie (Gabriella Lindley on Youtube) so unfortunately you can't get it anymore. I like that it is clear so that you can see the rose gold of my phone but there is also the fun, different designs of the donuts.



This silver, glittery case is from H & M. It also has cat ears at the top which is so cute as I love cats! I think this was around £6.



The next phone case is a rose gold one from B & M Bargains. This case is very similar to the Lumee case in that it lights up at the front. This makes it really good for taking selfies in the dark. I got this as a Christmas present but it cost around £8.



The last phone case I have is from Skinny Dip. I got this last year in the January sales so I can't remember how much it was but it was cheaper that normal. I love this case for the summer time because it has a combination of mermaids and cats on it. 

Those are all of my phone cases. Let me know in the comments: do you have a case on your phone just now and if so, what is it? I have the copper New Look one on my phone.
