Christmas Haul: Part 2

So here is the second part of my haul which is things i brought today in the sale. I know it isn't things other people got me for christmas, but i brought it with some of the money i got for christmas so it kind of counts.

Topshop £15: Jumper

Christmas Haul: Part 1

I hope you all had a lovely Christmas! Anyway, today i thought i would do a christmas haul. I decided to split it into two parts, the first part are things i got from my family/ friends, and the second will be things i brought today in the boxing day sales.

Piping kit/ Cupcake kit/ Heart dished/ Cupcake cases

Soap& Glory gift set/ Bath set/ Fun 

Black and burgundy skirts

Socks

Candle set/ Hot water bottle/ Camera case/ Money box

Hair grips/ Hair bands/ Face masks/ Nail polish

DIY: Lip Scrub

This DIY is so simple and cheap, and the end result is a bit like the lip scrubs you get in lush for £5.25. 

1. Mix 3 teaspoons of granulated sugar and 1 tablespoon of oil (I used sunflower oil)
2. Mix in about one drop of red food colouring (add as much or as little depending on what colour you want)
3. Put it into your pot, and it is ready to use!

What's in my bag

I love seeing other peoples 'what's in my bag' posts so i really wanted to do one myself. My bag is from Primark and i got it about a year ago. It was only about £12 and it still hasn't broken which is suprising! I don't carry any thing out of the usual, just a few essentials. 

Review: Kleenex Shine Absorbing Sheets

I have heard a lot of good things about these shine absorbing sheets from kleenex, so i really wanted to try them for myself. I was going to buy some from the shops, but it turned out my mum had a sample of them which she said she wasn't going to use. They are usually £2.99 for 50 sheets which in my opinion is a bargain!

They packaging is really cute. They come in a simple cardboard pack which is great for just chucking in your bag. There is a little sticker on the inside of the lid, so when you open the packet one of the sheets sticks to it. This feature is so simple, yet so handy as you don't have to touch all of the other sheets to get one out and there is no faffing about.

The sheets are powder free and are like really thin pieces of paper. They are plain purple on one side and the other side is patterned. 

I found that they absorbed most of the shine/oil from my face and they didn't disturb my make-up like it claims which is a bonus! I would defiantly recommend these to people who get a bit oily as they are great for a quick touch up!

NOTD: Barry M Grey

I brought this nail polish from the clothes show last weekend so you may have seen it in my last post. I have been wanting a grey nail polish for a while now, but all of the ones i could find were too light. However for me, this one by Barry M is just perfect!

I have had it on my nails for the last 3 days and it is yet to chip which is great! The consistency is pretty good, other than it is slightly on the thick side. It looks best if you apply two coats, and then a top coat on top to finish it off

Overall I really like this nail polish and will defiantly be wearing it again soon!

Clothes Show Live 2012/ Haul

Yesterday i went to The Clothes Show Live for the first time, and i had such a great time! Here are some pictures of the event, and a little haul of all the things i bought at the end.

This is everything i bought. It isn't much compared to what some people got, but i didn't want to spend too much money as i am saving to buy christmas presents.

I got all these models own goodies for £10! You get a bag with a nail file, nail clippers, lip balm, nail art pen, lip gloss, eye shadow applicators, kohl eyeliner, liquid liner, lip liner and two powder eye shadows.
