A BUDGET HAUL

Good evening Ladies and Gents! I had an extremely lazy day today and so I decided to get my arse     in gear and go into town and purchase some new things. However, as I am currently skint I didn't     go overboard and actually managed to get six items for a total of £10.24, which I think is pretty good! 

I purchased all of these items from Body Care which is a sort of 'Poundland' version of Boots. Yes, everything may not be £1 but it is a hell of a lot cheaper so it's a great place to go if you're looking for a bargain.



The first item is Imperial Leather Sensuous Silk Bath Cream and it smells a delight! It was only 99p and it's a 500ml bottle - cheap as chips! I'm a huge fan of Imperial Leather body wash, everything smells so good and leaves your skin feeling b-e-a-utiful and the price of it really isn't an issue!

If you've read my previous posts, you'll know I've been loving the Tea Tree Lotion by The Body Shop, so I thought I'd get myself a tea tree facial wash to try and get rid of some redness I have on my face. The brand is Escenti which I've never heard of before, but it was only 89p and I was in need of something to stop my redness before it consumes my whole face and I turn into a walking red blob!

Thirdly is the Pearl Drops Everyday White, which was also extremely cheap (99p). I'm not really sure how to use it at the moment but I think you use it as a tooth paste. As it was only really cheap, I'm not expecting amazing results, but nevertheless I want to give it a bash! 

Not the most exciting, but I needed some more makeup wipes so I got the Bodycare 4 in 1 Cleansing Facial Wipes (89p). When buying makeup wipes, I try not to spend a lot because all makeup wipes pretty much do the same job, so I'm not too bothered about getting a specific brand.

I've read a lot about the L'Oreal Paris Skin Perfection 3 in 1 Purifying Solution so I picked it up. It's meant to dissolve makeup, unclog pores and tone and sooth the skin. I'll probably use this after I've removed my makeup and washed my face just to get it extra clean! This was actually the most expensive thing I bought at £3.99.

Finally, I needed a new face scrub which is why I purchased the Neutrogena Gentle Exfoliating Wash. I haven't used a Neutrogena product in years so I'm looking forward to seeing how this works with my skin! Oops, almost forgot, the price of this is £2.49.

So that is it for my little budget haul! If there's a particular product that you want a to see a review on let me know in the comments. But if I love any of the products after using them they'll probably be featured in a future favourites post or I'll do a review on them!

THE BEST OF JUNE

I've grabbed a handful of products to show you that I have been loving this month, so lets get to it...





- I have fallen in love with the Tea Tree Skin Clearing Lotion by The Body Shop. I get really bad redness around my nose (charming) and I thought it was time to fight back! I have noticed a huge difference in my skin, its much clearer and the redness has been greatly reduced. Also, I love the smell and the feel of the product on my face - it tingles!

- I've had the DKNY Be Delicious fresh blossom body lotion for ages now as I got it in a set with the perfume (which I adore). I tried it for the first time a few weeks ago and it really is a lovely smelling lotion! I am the worst at explaining scents so I'm not even going to try, but if you love fresh and clean scents then I would definitely recommend giving this a whiff!

- Not sure about everyone else, but personally, I find it extremely hard to find a mascara that won't smudge and make me look like a panda! However...I think I've finally found my perfect mascara. The L'Oreal Volumissime X5 in carbon black has really won me over, completely no smudges and it gives my lashes a really full and lengthening effect. I would highly recommend this beautiful product!

- There are so many people raving about the Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stains, so when I was in Boots the other day, I took a gander to the Revlon section and got myself one! I chose the colour 'honey' as I had heard from a beauty guru on YouTube that it was a good dupe for MACs 'plumful'. I wore the Revlon Balm Stain to my sixth form prom a couple of days ago and I really do love it, and it doesn't budge all day! I woke up in the morning (after coming home drunk and removing my makeup) to find that there was still some colour left! Great little beauty to have in your collection

- It is no secret that the Urban Decay Naked palettes are amazing! I am completely in with the hype and have been loving the original Naked palette and also the Naked Basics. The colours are stunning and by far are my favourite eyeshadows.
