A mini Haul...



"Nipping" into Boots is always a tough ask and this trip was no exception! 









First in my basket was the Maybelline Baby Lips Balm & Blush in Innocent Peach. I've always loved the Baby Lips products but the idea of using something as not only a balm but also a blush I found a little weird! The peach colour I thought would be perfect as we enter spring!
I'll be honest, I don't love it as a blush...I've tried it 3 times but I don't like the feeling of it on my face, it's too kind of sticky! However...as a balm, its perfect. It's so moisturising, and it's pigmented enough to really see the colour without it being over powering. For £4.99 it's an absolute must buy!







My next cheeky purchase was the L'Oreal Paris Infallible Matte Foundation in shade 20- Sand. I've read so many blog posts about this foundation and thought I would give it a try for myself. I prefer quite a high coverage as my skin can break out really easily. This foundation applies so well, it's not too thick which I think helps! I do normally prefer a more yellow under toned base but I'm actually really liking the more rose undertone! Now the million dollar question, does it really last 24hours? Simply no, however it does last probably 15/16?? after that a little touch up is definitely required! 






My final purchase was the Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water. This was a repurchase as I just can't get enough of it. This product is AMAZING. I love taking my make up with it, its so soft and its perfect for sensitive skin. My skin can break out for no reason at all so I have to be really careful what products I use. It smells lovely and fresh and it really makes your face feel properly clean. 
I also use it as brush cleaner! It's probably the best thing I've ever used to clean my brushes! I just pop some in a glass and put my brushes in to soak, clean them through and then leave to dry. It makes them so soft I cannot even begin to tell you! Currently the 400ml bottle is only £3.33 at Boots...go buy!




Any recommendations for my next trip?!
