Today I went shopping with a list of things to get and accidentally stumbled into Superdrug and Boots and they both had 3 for 2 on makeup so what is a girl to do. I picked up a range of products some are repurchases and some will be products I haven't tried before and every product I brought today was under £5. 


When having a walk through boots I came across the Natural Collection display and was surprised at the new revamp of all the packaging. The only packaging did look slightly cheap but this new packing looks great. I've always been a big fan of the blushes that Natural Collection has and picked up Rosey Glow which is a mauvey pink colour. I usually go for lighter blush colours but this looks perfect for my skin since I have got a small tan! For only £1.99 you get a really good amount of product with this blush, i'll be going back for more. 

Once I got into Boots I decided that I wanted to get a few lip products as I hadn't got any new products in a while then I saw this lip pencil. Before I swatched this product I thought it would be quite dry but it was really smooth and swatched so easily. I also liked that this can be used as a liner as well as a all over colour. The colour I went for is a nudey brown colour which I don't usually wear, this would be perfect for an everyday lip colour. It isn't very big for a lipstick but its only £2.49! You do need a sharpener for this product once it runs down. 

This was one of the more expensive products I purchased but it was still under £5! I think these Sleek Lip Shots are new and they are a really pigmented gloss, they remind me of Too Faced Melted Longwear lipstick but for over half the priceless. The colour I picked was a mauve pink which I really love to wear on my lips especially of I wear pinky shades on my eyes. I would wear this lipstick of an evening or on a night. I love that this is a full coverage gloss and that its extra shiny, looking forward to trying this product out.

I have been needing a new mascara for a while now because I start to get bored of the ones Id have been using, then I saw all the different ones that Collection offered and I wasn't sure on which one to try out. It says this mascara is supposed to add volume and length to the lashes which is what I love. I also really like that this brush is a bristle applicator which I mostly prefer over plastic ones. The applicator on this mascara is quite big which I also like because it can coat all of the lashes. 

When looking at the Collection stand I saw these lip colours and was really interested in them, I really like glossy lipsticks as they are so easy to wear and I liked this colour straight away for its deep plum colour, I dont usually wear this colour too often but im wanting to start wearing it more. I would probably wear this more during the day but its the sort of colour that can also be worn in the evening with a deeper eyeshadow look. 

This concealer is a repurchase for me because I've already had one of these before but when I went into Superdrug they didn't have the colour which I got last time which was C8 so this is supposed to be slightly darker but I dont think it is its slightly more on the yellowy side. I think this colour would also be great for under eye concealing and anywhere that needs an all over lightening effect.

Spontaneous hauls are always the best hauls because you get new things you didnt expect to get. Have you tried anything from my haul before?

  2. I've found so many amazing products from natural collection before. I used to adore their blush years ago and I was so shocked at how good it was for the price. The new packaging does look a little cheap but I still think it's pretty good for under £2 x
