BOOTS HAUL


Hello lovers! Now, as you all probably know, Boots are doing a wonderful 3 for 2 triple points events! This applies to nearly all of their make up brands, as well as some of their skincare range. So I thought I'd share my purchases with you lovely lot, and I've seen a few other bloggers sharing their buys from this event, so let's all share and be Boots friends!

Bourjois Products
Now, as you can gather from previous posts, Bourjois is definitely my favourite drugstore brand, so I definitely took advantage of their products in this offer. I picked up the beauty of a highlighter I had been wanting for ages which is the gorgeous Bourjois Java Rice Powder, a wonderful pink toned shimmery highlighter, as I have cool tones in my skin this really suits me and my pale complexion, although I would not recommend it for you especially tanned folk, but I love this product, I've used it a few times since purchasing and it really helps to brighten up my face. Then I picked up two lippys from their Aqua Laque range, which is a glossy liquid lipstick, now I own nearly all of their Rouge Edition Velvets and am in love, so I thought I'd try these out, I picked up the colours Rosè On The Rocks and Viens Si Tu Rose, I have never been a gloss girl but as it approaches spring/summer I want to try out new beauty trends, I have only used the lighter of the two colours which is Rosè On The Rocks, and I can say it is stunning, a lovely muted pastel with a stunning shimmer, and for a gloss it really stays put for a lot longer than I anticipated, so I hope good things for the other colour I purchased as well as the rest of the range.

Rimmel Products
I'm also very much a Rimmel girl, they have wonderful products and they never let me down. I was in need of a new primer, and I'm the kind of person who likes to switch up my primers, I haven't found my holy grail yet so I keep on the hunt, and I picked up their Fix and Pro Primer, I haven't used it yet but I'll be sure to share my thoughts when I've used up my L'Oreal Infallible Base. I also picked up two more of the wonderful Kate Moss range of lipsticks, the stunning nude which is shade 03, and an amazing deep purple in shade 30. I've heard wonderful things about the nude and I've tried it once and I absolutely love it so I'm so glad I picked this one up, and I have such a love for deep purples so I'm sure I'll love that one all the same.

Skincare Products
In a great turn of luck all my skincare products seemed to run out at the same time, so it was time to pick up a new moisturiser, cleanser and night cream. And luckily their 3 for 2 offer extended to simple skincare, I used to use simple all the time for my skin was ever so sensitive when I was younger, and I thought it wouldn't do any harm to revert back to it. I picked up the Kind To Skin Micellar Cleansing Water, Kind To Skin Replenishing Rich Moisturiser and the Kind To Skin Vital Vitamin Night Cream. I've only just started to use these products so I don't feel like they've done the world of difference yet, but the moisturiser is definitely better on my skin and helps keep my face hydrated throughout the day. I also picked up four of my favourite face masks which are the Montagne Jeunesse face masks, not involved in the 3 for 2, just a little treat for Emily, these are always a part of my pamper evenings so I thought I'd stock up, and for £1? How can you not! 

So that's everything in my Boots haul, I hope you enjoyed reading and if you picked up anything in this offer let's all share and discuss! Please check back for more posts.

  3. The Rimmel Lipstick in Shade 30 is so gorgeous! The perfect berry shade IMO and really suits pale skin. I purchased the Simple Micellar Cleansing Water recently and I can't decide if I'm impressed or not. It's my first time using Micellar water so I think I'll have to try another brand when I'm finished so I can compare!

    1. I quite agree!

      Well before the simple one I tried the Garnier Micellar water, and it was great for removing make up and cleansing my skin, I really liked it!

  14. I've never tried the bourjois aqua laque but they look fab! Would love to hear your thoughts on the Rimmel Primer when you use it!! I'm still on the hunt for that one true love with primers as well. It seems like other people rave about primers but I'm always a little bit neutral towards them xx
