Boots Haul 019



Back in March, I mentioned that I won't be doing any more big splurges until my birthday and low and behold, that time has come around. Instead of doing one splurge, I've done three albeit one of them is rather small in comparison. I've decided to rename this week splurge week as that is all you'll be reading this week from me apart from on Sunday where it'll be a review.

Whenever I go to York, I love walking into town by myself and go into every store that takes my fancy. In particular, I love the Boots that they have as it has every single brand there possible with advisors at my disposable. My first port of call was the Origins counter as I was after two things in particular - the Make A Difference Night Cream and Make A Difference Plus Treatment Lotion. The Make A Difference Night Cream is an overnight hydrating repair cream which helps lock in moisture overnight to give radiant, awaken skin come morning. The Make A Difference Plus Treatment Lotion is leaning more towards a refreshing toner than anything else because it feels both hydrating and moisturising at the same time which you can use both morning and night.

After browsing the self selection area for quite some time, I walked away with an Essie Nail Varnish in Blossom Dandy which I've been wanting ever since I saw it on ThatsHeart's Instragram. It's one of those minty green come pastel blue shades that looks different in lighting. Whilst finding said shade, I got approached by a Benefit Consultant who gave me a mini lesson in all things Benefit and after spending half an hour with her, I walked away with both Browzings and Gimme Brow. I truly didn't need any more eyebrow products but she had applied them on me and I must admit, my brows never looked better!

As mentioned in my previous post, in order to get the free No7 gift with purchase you have to purchase two cosmetics. So I decided to pick up two nail varnishes as you can never have enough nail varnishes! The first one being Rose Gold which as the name suggests, is a beautiful rose gold shade which I can't wait to start wearing and the other being Grapefruit which is very similar to Essie's Cute As A Button in the sense of being a bright pink-ish red colour.
