Super Savings Boots Haul

Like most people I do love a deal and I was pleasantly surprised in Boots on Friday when I came across 2 deals which saved me just under £10 and involved things I actually needed! How fabulous?!

The first deal is if you spend £10 or more on Rimmel products you get their Scandal Eyes Flex Mascara for free. I went into Boots needing a new foundation, pressed powder and mascara so I nearly weed myself at this offer! It’s not hard to spend £10 on any make up products as well so I thought it was quite a generous deal as well and also in that on its own the mascara £6.99 so I was happy with that. 

Second deal of the day was that Boots have 3 for 2 on all facial and body products I think it is and it includes most brands so you have a large selection to choose from. I needed a new facial scrub and hand sanitizer as the tube has been stressing me out more than I thought it would with hygiene and that. I got the Garnier Fruit Energy scrub because my sister had recommended it to me and as well as that it smells AWESOME! Like seriously after using it I want to eat my face, so good! Along with that I had heard amazing things about the Soap & Glory hand sanitizer which also smells fabulous so that fell into my paws with the legendary Sugar Crush Body Wash which actually smells heavenly! I have used it as well and it just makes you feel so good and refreshed so I do recommend this product to anyone who enjoys sweet smelling products.

So overall a very happy Hann left Boots on Friday, if you need some more beauty supplies I do recommend to go and check these deals before they are gone.

What deals have you loved recently?

I haven’t mentioned any music recently but I do want to start to again and a band I have been obsessed with at the moment is London Grammar so go check them out, ear-gasms all around!

Boots Bargain Treats

Like most people I do enjoy a good bargain especially when its beauty products. When I was in Boots the other day I managed to find these beauties in their clearance section and was absolutely ecstatic. Upon questioning why the products were reduced I was told that it was just stock they did not have room for; get in there!

Dr Nick Lowe Purifying Foaming Cleanser: £4.50

I have used this a few times since buying it and so far I am quite impressed with the results, I will do a full review after a longer trail period. I am not really one to buy cheap skin care as to me it’s really important but as it was reduced I thought I would suck up my pride and give it a go.

L’Oreal Paris Code Lumiere BB cream: £1.99

My steal of the day; it was labelled at £3.00 but when I got to the till it only came to £1.99 saving me an extra £1.01 (doesn’t seem a lot but hey, every little helps!) I have been using this quite a lot at the minute as its too hot to wear foundation and so far so good. Does not have the best coverage but for only £1.99 it’ll do for the rest of the hot weather.

Nivea Lip Butter in Raspberry Rose: £0.50

I have heard such good things about these lip butters and when I saw they were only 50p I had to buy one (well 2, I got one for my sister as well) and I am in love with them! It leaves my lips so soft and they smell so good, this flavour reminds me of the Oken raspberry yoghurts which I love so that’s also a massive bonus. I actually think I would pay full price for these as they are so amazing, highly recommend them!

This shop came to the total of only £7.49 and left a very happy Hann with a very happy bank balance! The moral of this story is always take a look at the clearance section whenever you are in a shop, you never what you may find.

What bargains have you found recently?

Thrift Shop Living (with a little boots on the side)

I absolutely love the town I live in as its right by the sea but we don’t have the best selection of shops which sucks. Let’s just say the biggest clothes shop we have is Peacocks, yeah not that fabulous however we do have a large selection of charity shops. People are often divided by charity shops in that they either love them or they never ever go in them; I am a person who adores them especially for jewellery. For people (like myself) on a budget they are the best places to go to get nice jewellery at good prices; you just have to be willing to have to look a little harder for some of the good pieces. So today I thought I would do a haul post on what I have found in my little town today from their selection of charity shops…oh and also we have a Boots, so I may have bought some make-up related treats as well. Beauty blogger problems.  

I actually set out today to find a new big statement necklace and I did! I was so happy to find this gold gem one which came to the lovely price of £2.99; the gems are plastic but the chain is metal so it hangs well and it will go nicely with a t-shirt or simple dress. The other necklace I bought, which was a bargain at £1.00, is like nothing I have seen before and I was really intrigues by it. It has a chain design in the middle then around the outside has little spikes, I like it because it is a little bit different I think it will just make an outfit a little bit more interesting.

From the same shop as the silver chair was this gold bangle which I got for 50p, yes only 50p! It’s made of metal and I just really like the design of it with the overlapping sides and its little embellishment on the back which makes it look like something from Game of Thrones or similar. It’ll be perfect just to wear as a simple bangle on its own or as part of a few on holidays and for only 50p it’s brilliant! Finally I got this gold ring with a little fake diamond in the middle; I have lost the tag so I am not 100% how much it was but I think it was only £1 and I have a small addiction to rings so it had to be bought.  

The after being really good and only spend £5.50 on jewellery, I found myself on Boots. Bad Han. The first thing I got was the Maybelline Falsies Mascara; I have heard such good things about this mascara from so many different people that when I saw it had £2.50 off I had to buy it. The next things I bought actually were things I needed as they had ran out or I needed to replace something. I need a new foundation so I went for the Maybelline Fit Me foundation in Classic Ivory as again I have heard good things about it and I have been using the Rimmel 25 Hour Lasting foundation for a while and I fancied a change. So I will review this new one when I have used it for a bit and I will do the same for the mascara but I have a feeling I everyone has heard a review about it one time or another. Finally I just replaced my Rimmel Professional Eyebrow Pencil in Dark Brown and my Rimmel Soft Kohl Eyeliner in Jet Black which were both so short they got lost in there lids. I love these pencils as they are only £2.99 each and they are exceptional value for money; they last me ages and are just generally great products. I highly recommend them to everyone. 

There you go, not many people have a haul on a Monday but there you go, I just like to keep things interesting. Also I hope I have helped some people change their minds on charity shops; what is your opinion on them?

 Happy Monday kittens and if you have any exams good good luck, Love Hann xx
