Mini shopping trip haul - Primark, Superdrug & Asda

 Me and my boyfriend went on a trip to Birmingham today and I just thought I'd show you some bits and pieces I picked up!

 I mentioned this Superdrug Naturally Radiant Hot Cloth Cleanser in my last blog post so made sure I picked this up while it's half price at £2.99. It's been compared to the Liz Earle cleanser so I am very excited to try this, watch out for a review soon!

We went into Asda on the way home (I was desperate for the loo!) and I was mooching around the skin care aisle hoping there would be some bargains I could pick up. This nspa brand has always intrigued me and this shower & body wash was reduced to 75p so I couldn't say no! I love the packaging of these products and the way they label them step 1 for cleanse, step 2 for exfoliate and step 3 for moisturise, such a clever idea!

Whilst in Superdrug I also picked up the Colour Effects Cool Blonde which I also mentioned in my last post. I ombred my hair last week and I hate the brassy colour of the blonde but this seems to be sold out everywhere so I was extremely glad when I saw it today! I'm expecting big things for this but it was only £1.99ish so I'm really not sure what to expect... ombre hair blog post to come soon!

Finally, whilst in Primark I picked up a 2 pack of bras from the Secret Possessions section (the more expensive underwear). I adore the vintage, girly look of these and whilst they aren't very padded, it was £8 for the two which I think is quite a bargain! The black one has white lace detail with pink ribbon, a pink bow and pearl in the middle and lace straps whilst the white one has tiny dots all over it with white lace, white ribbon, a white bow and pearl and the same lace straps! Love them!

I'm lusting after...

1) Superdrug Effects Cool Blonde - I've just ombred my hair (pics to come soon) and the ends are quite a brassy orange so I've been desperate to get this to tone it down a bit but it's sold out online AND in my local shop!!

2) Matalan satin plunge bra - I adore this bra, I think it's gorgeous and I love how Matalan has pictures of people wearing the bras. Creepy as it sounds, I like to see how boobs look in a bra before I buy (especially if I'm buying online).

3) Topshop blush in Afternoon Tea - Honestly? I just want it for the name.

4) Virtue Queen of Hearts stacking ring - I got one of the Virtue stacking rings for my birthday last month and I love it and unlike Pandora they do sizes small enough for my stupidly skinny fingers. I REALLY like this one but considering it's a heart, I don't think I can really buy it for myself. Might have to give the boyfriend a nudge!

5) Suede effects chunky cut out nude wedges - These wedges are from the Ebay shop I did a blog post about; Hidden Fashion. I think these are the perfect "I'm now 18 so need some clubbing heels that won't kill my feet" shoes!

6) Soap & Glory Mist You Madly - I got the body butter in this scent in a big gift set for Christmas about 3 years ago and it's the best thing I've EVER smelt so I've been meaning to get this ever since but always forget!

7) River Island Tshirt - My go to item at the moment is a boyfriend fit tshirt and the saying couldn't describe me better, I just wish it wasn't £15... can I really justify spending that on a tshirt that has such an ironic slogan?

8) Superdrug Hot Cloth Cleanser - I've read such good reviews of this cleanser and people have said it's as good as the Liz Earle one but I've been waiting for it to go on offer before buying it because for a Superdrug own brand product I think it's quite pricey (£5.99). It's half price at the moment so will have to make a trip to Superdrug soon.

9) Revlon Urban - Finally, I saw swatches of this nail polish on someone's blog and it reminded me how much I love really dark nail polishes, I think they really suit my pale skin. It's not exactly a summer colour but I can see myself living in this in the autumn/winter.
