MAC Sandy B Lipstick & Lush buys !

Hello there pretty ladies, i just wanted to show you a quick look at a few things i purchased the other day. I haven't been shopping for a while as I've been trying to be good. It was a little treat really for valentines. After all we all need a little retail therapy once in a while.

If you remember my post on lipglosses last week here then you will notice a distinct lack of peach shades which follows through with my usual lipstick choices too. Sooo i went on the search for a pretty peach lippy. After chatting to a few of you on twitter I decided to go for Sandy B and I'm glad i did:

I love the way it has a soft gold sheen to it. Its very different to my usual colours that i go for but that was the point. I think I've found another favourite for summer as i bet it looks great with a tan.

Swatched with flash

My lips are quite pigmented so i added a little foundation as a base before application. I'm so pleased with this shade yet it's one I've heard so little about.


Then i went to one of my favourite shops LUSH. I had to get a bottle of it's raining men before they sold out. I do like Honey i washed the kids soap but this for me personally is a lot lot nicer. Its a dreamy, creamy sweet honey fragrance which i have stashed away for a rainy day.

I wasn't planning on buying this cute blue gingerbread man ballistic named The Ex Factor but when i was browsing i walked past a large swarm of these and the smell just coaxed me in. I am a sucker for vanilla and so i cant wait to try this one out.

I also picked up a magic mushroom bubble bar. All the bubble bars last me an eternity as i have a jacuzzi bath so i use a tiny chunk at a time and the bath is always literally overflowing with frothy fat bubbles.
Strawberry and cream scented with again a distinct hint of vanilla makes this an irresistible bath time treat.

Last but not least i chose the Happy Blooming Bath Melt. I've not tried this before and i do like a nice moisturising skin lavishing melt. Bath times are going to be fun this week.The best bit about it is it breaks into 3 pieces for triple tub bathing.

On the way home we stopped off at matalan and i spotted this funky ring for just £6. I love angel wings and thought this was quite unusual. 

So that's my little lot although i did buy a few little bits again today ( ssshhh ) Separate post needed for that one.

I was just wondering if you love a particular makeup item which you never hear people talk about either?
