April's Love Me Beauty

I've been subscribed to Love Me Beauty for a few months now and I must say for a beauty subscription box/bag I really quite like it. You pay Around £13 including postage per month and you get 60 credits to use in their store, everything is of different value, the products are not always full size they are more like deluxe samples but they are so ideal and perfect for on the go and your trying the product before you buy it full size. They often have a feature brand each month within their edit which has a selection of products from that particular brand, for example they've had: Make Up Forever, Kat Von D and Charlotte Tilbury, it feels like a treat to try these brands as some of them can be pricey.

Each month you will receive an email to let you know once you're credits have been renewed and a link to shop the edit. You have to use a minimum of 60 credits per order but you can buy additional credits if you want if there is something else that. Some months there will be products from previous edits but sometimes these are handy as they are mainly of smaller value and can bulk up your order. I do look forward to receiving my order as I find the products in the edits are really good quality, also they come in a little zip up pouch with different patterns/colours each month.

This month I had a look through and I decided to pick the following:

Eco Tools Full Powder and Precision Blush, Dr Bragi Sheet Intensive Treatment and Popband hair band.

Anastasia Beverly Hills Nicole Guerriero Glow Kit

Soo would you believe it or not this was my first Anastasia Beverly Hills purchase ever! Where have I been, hiding under a rock?! I've often heard good things about ABH and their products but I think I was put of ordering as I wanted to actually see the products first and not to be disappointed as some of the products are not cheap also I'm a little cautious of ordering make up on line unless I've bought it before due to the colour swatches you can never really quite tell.

Weekend with my family

How beautiful has the weekend been?! The sun has been out but not too warm, just lovely. I think almost everyone has now come out of the winter hibernation. I'm just hoping that the bank holiday next weekend is just as nice too!

I was supposed to go London Friday after work and spend the weekend but after a long and busy week I didn't make it and I stayed in Ipswich. Friday evening I popped into town and met up with some people from work for drinks, I didn't have a heavy night of drinking but it was a late one, there was some crazy snaps going around.

New shoes and more

A couple of weeks ago I popped into town to pick up the L'Oreal matte foundation and to look for some pumps as the weather is getting a little bit warmer and not so much boot weather. A few other things were bought as well, things that I didn't intend on buying but couldn't resist. I like do buy a few things at a time instead of buying loads all in one go, one because buying loads mean achy arms and I need to find space to put the new stuff!

My new Zara bag

So in my last post I did say I was eyeing up a faux fur finish bag from Zara, the style has been around for some time now and they have different prints/textures. I first see this possibly about a year ago and I loved it straight away but I never bought it but every so often I'd think about it because there has been occasions where I could of used it instead of taking my big bag.

Westfields mini shopping haul

So I done some shopping last time I was in London, not a massive shop but I picked up a few things from Westfield's Stratford. Every so often when I'm in the city I will pick up a few things mainly to do with make up as living in Ipswich we don't have brands like Mac, NYX or Nars so I often find myself at a make up counter in one of the department stores or getting my make up done in Mac. Not everything I bought was for me or things I needed but why not treat yourself now and again!

I will most likely go on another mini shopping haul more around clothes but I think another bag purchase will be on the horizon, I've been eyeing a bag from Zara and I now realty want it..

New make up tools

Couple of weekends ago I bought some new/replaced/additional make up applicators, I always find the application is always key to applying make up and my collection is slowly growing the more I buy different products I find myself buying more brushes (I think it's more of an excuse to go shopping). I don't always find that the more expensive the better the applicator will be more times it's about the quality of it, the materials used. I am always on the hunt for brushes if you have any you love, leave me a comment below....
