Haul | Make Up, Haircare, Skincare & a Candle!


Happy Saturday! This morning I popped up to the mall and picked up a few bits and pieces. All the Christmas shoppers were out in full force so I didn't hang around too long. I went to John Lewis to ask if they had the Origins Christmas Bauble gift set but unfortunately they didn't have any and the assistant was very confused as to what I was asking for! I might just have to order it online. 

Bumble & Bumble Surf Spray | I have been thinking about getting a sea salt spray for a while because I am longing for some beach babe waves! I decided to pick up the small sized one to try out. I haven't used any Bumble products before so I was excited to try this. I was tempted to get the Grooming Creme as well but I decided that I would wait until one of the Bumble & Bumble girls were there to speak to. 

Lily-Flame Snow Fall Candle | I have been really getting into my scented candles recently so I thought I would pick up a winter scent one. I love these Lily-Flame candles in the tins, you can get them in John Lewis and they have lots of lovely scents. I picked up Snow Fall because I wanted a winter scent which wasn't too over powering. 

Rimmel Wake Me Up Concealer | I have been using up my Bobbi Brown concealer which is okay but I find it can be a bit cakey sometimes. Especially at the moment because skin has gone dry in the cheeks - the curse of winter weather! So I decided to give this Rimmel one a go as I have read great reviews about it. 

Revlon Grow Luscious Mascara | I was in need of a new mascara so I decided to pick this one up after reading Kayleigh's review. Mascara which helps your lashes grow? Yes please!

Aveeno Positively Radiant Daily Skin Brightening Moisturiser | My skin had a bad reaction to the Amie Morning Dew Moisturiser which I had picked up the other week. It made my skin super sensitive and sore. It is heavily perfumed for a 'natural' product and my skin had a reaction to one of the ingredients. I got some great advice on products from some lovely girls on twitter but in the end I decided to repurchase a moisturiser which I know my skin likes. I didn't want to try a new product just in case my skin didn't like that either! 

Carmex Cherry Lip Balm | I can't say I really needed a new lip balm but I fancied trying this one out. I would love to try the Nuxe one but can't bring myself to pay the £9.50 price tag just yet! 

I also made a little haul video! Lighting is rubbish and it's filmed on my laptop but let me know if you like this and I will work on better lighting and equipment :)


Let me know if you have purchased anything lately & if you have a haul post leave me a link!
