Nuxe Haul

Recently I have been very naughty and been shopping a lot, and I know I shouldn't as I need to save up for Paris but there has been SO many amazing offers that sway me EVERY time, and Nuxe had a 30% off and as always I couldn't resit that. I was really impressed with the delivery as it took two days for it to get to me.

The first thing I bought was their Rêve de Miel Ultra Nourishing Lip Balm, as I've wanted to try it for so long and why not buy it when there is a 30% off? Also I have heard so many good things about it.

The next thing I picked up was an impulse shop, I didn't need it as I'm trying to use all my other cleansers up but I picked up their Rêve de Miel Facial Cleansing and Make-Up Removing Gel.

And with my order I received a couple of freebies. The first freebie was their Beauty kit which had a sample of their Micellar Cleansing Water with Rose Petals, Crème Prodigieuse and lastly their 24Hr Moisturising Body Lotion.

I also received four mini samples, one was of their Huile Prodigieuse, another one was their Fondant Cleansing Gel, another of their Sérum Crème Fraîche de Beauté, and lastly a sample of their Huile Prodigieuse OR.

NUXE Rêve de Miel Ultra Nourishing Lip Balm

Today I'm going to talk about NUXE Rêve de Miel Ultra Nourishing Lip Balm. I had high hopes for this lip balm as so many people have raved about this lip product and boy it did not disappoint.

It smells like honey and lemon/orange, which usually I'm not keen on but this smells incredible. The texture isn't like your bog-standard lip balm it has a quite thick consistency to it which I love as you don't need much per application, also it sinks in almost immediately. It dries to a matte finish which makes it perfect as a base for lipstick. I find this lip balm to be more moisturising than any other lip product on the market. I mostly use this in the evenings as it stops my lips from being chapped the next morning and it makes them feel very soft and ultra nourished.

The only downside to this lip balm is that it's glass, yes it makes it feel more luxurious but there's always the fear of dropping it. The jar is also stupidly heavy for such a small product. But that still won't stop me from re-purchasing another jar when mine runs out.

Are you a fan of this lip balm?

The Body Shop Haul

Today, I thought I would show you a mini haul from The Body Shop as the first time I was in there they had a 30% off and a sale so I couldn't resist those offers and then recently they've had a half price off all their body butters and again I couldn't resist that offer.

As these were half price I bought two for the price of one, I bought a Satsuma one and a Grapefruit one, these smell AMAZING! 

I didn't need any more lip products but these were on a three for two or something so I bought a Grapefruit one and a Shea one.

A customer from work recommended that I try this hand gel as the smell lingers on the skin for a while, and as my hand sanitizer from wilkinson's had ran out I bought a new one.

A mini Satsuma body butter as I love this stuff and it's a perfect size for my bag.

I didn't need another eye shadow but it was £2.50 so I couldn't resist it.

July Favourites

A month has passed, which can only mean one thing it's favourites time! I have a mixture of products from beauty, body, fragrance, food and drink.

Beauty

No7 Exquisite Curl Mascara - Holy cow this mascara is amazing, I love the brush as it gets all of my lashes and it makes my lashes look fuller and curvier.

Soap and Glory Supercat eye liner - This eye liner has been a life saver in the last month as the weather has been very humid and I've found that it does not budge at all. Could this be a holy grail eye liner?

Revlon Lip butter in 'Berry Smoothie' - I love this stuff as I'm not a confident lipstick wearer this gives just enough colour for it not to be over powering and for me it's a perfect everyday colour.

Topshop nail varnish - This is the best glitter nail varnish EVER it goes on so nicely on top of other colours and I've managed to get a lot of wear out of it.

Body

The Body Shop Body Butter - These smell amazing and I love the fact that the smell lingers on your body for a while too, also these are quite thick which really helps with my dry patches on my body.

Dove Summer Glow - Since I have the most obvious tan lines in the world, I've been using a gradual tanner to tan my white bits and it has helped as they're not as noticeable now, I would use a normal tanner but I'm scared of them as I don't want it to be streaky or too orange or for it to be darker/lighter than my own tan.

Fragrance

 

Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue - I've been using this perfume as one of my go-to daytime scents, as it just smells amazing and very casual and 'breezy'

DKNY Red Delicious - This scent was made for the summer it smells so fruity and fresh, which personally I love, I often wear this during the day although I have worn it on occasion in the evening.

M&S Home Blueberry Room Spray - I love this room spray it's perfect for the summer and it fills my room with a lovely scent for hours.

Food and Drink

Kellogg's Coco Pops - I could eat this cereal everyday and never get bored of it, I love it so much that one day I ate three bowls..

Starbucks Caramel Frappuccino - I have drank so many of these bad boys in the past month, it's just a perfect ice cold drink.
