Home from mini break. Here's the pics

Helloooo all!
Today I arrived back home from my mini holiday in Skegness. It was rather nice, but the place we stayed was really uncomfortable. I love Skegness. It's by far my favourite seaside town. So this post is just going to be photos and a little chat about some of them. Most are items that I bought while there, but there are a couple of Hello Kitty ones in there too ;)


I got this top from Yours Clothing. I've only ever been in one other Yours Clothing store before, but I have ordered from them before online. I have noticed that you really need to order a size above what you actually are otherwise I find them to be too tight. It was nice to get the chance to try this on before I bought. It was £14 and well worth the money. The fabric is lovely and it hangs great. I love the little frill around the bottom hem.


I saw this in Superdrug. It's the new Max Factor Xperience Weightless Foundation with SPF10. It was £12.99 and I got it in the shade Light Ivory. I was so happy to see the world 'light' in front of ivory because most foundations even in the lightest shade are far too dark for me, but thankfully this one is perfect! It gives lovely coverage and it really is weightless! New favourite of mine.


I got this Jemma Kidd Make Up School lipgloss FREE with a box of Bodyform. They were on offer at 2 for £2! So I got two of these lipgosses for two quid. Bargain or what? I love the look of this lipgloss on the lips. It's a tiny bit sticky but not too much. Adoreeeee it.


This is the Collection 2000 Lasting Perfection concealer. It's only £3.99 and I'm really impressed. I got it in the shade 'fair' and it is perfect for my skintone, but some people have commented that it's too light for them. I love the coverage of this concealer and it really does last for ages. The best concealer that I've tried in ages and a bargain price!


I saw this on a stall in Ingoldmels and thought I'd get it because it was so cheap. It was only £5. I haven't tried it yet so really can't comment on it just yet.



Here we have another Benefit rip off! This time it's by W7 and it's called Africa. As you can see the blush itself is a beautiful leopard print design. It's a really nice touch. I got this from Ingoldmels market for £2.99!


These are a few Hello Kitty items that I got including mints, lipgoss and phone charms.


CHOCOCAT MIRROR! I knew I'd probably get some Hello Kitty items from Skegness, but I didn't expect to get some other Sanrio characters. So I got uber excited when I saw this!
















So those are my photos. Hope you enjoyed!

Sanrio Friends @ Build A Bear, Good Things Skincare, etc

First of all let me tell you how excited I am about the new Sanrio Friends collection at the Build A Bear Workshop. There are three new additions to the Sanrio line and includes the repromote of the white Hello Kitty. The other characters are My Melody, Chococat & Keroppi.
I personally love the way that Chococat looks the most, but I will be purchasing My Melody because she is my favourite character (other than Hello Kitty & Kuromi of course)
I will also be getting the white Hello Kitty because I only have the Tropical Hello Kitty at this moment in time. I can't wait. I also can't wait to get the little leopard print top that Hello Kitty is wearing in that promo photo. Needless to say it will be mine! It's going to be quite an expensive day out :-/
I love Build A Bears but they are so bloody expensive so buying two will cost me quite a bit, but they'll be worth it I'm sure.

In other news... over the past couple of days I've been trying out Good Things Skincare.

I've used the Stay Clear Cleanser & Five Minute Facial Mask so far and I must say they seem really good. The cleanser is the nicest smelling skincare product I've ever used and it really makes me skin feel clean without leaving it greasy and the Mask? I've just used it and my skin feels so soft. Thumbs up so far!
