Real techniques brushes at bargain price!!


I recently went to ASDA and saw they had some Real Techniques brushes, which of course I got excited about! I purchased this blush brush for just £5.87, I wasn't actually sure how much this brush retailed for but when I looked on the Boots website I saw that it usually costs £9.99!! I'm a bit annoyed at myself that I didn't get more while they had them in stock, they had at least four other types of brushes and also one of the sets for very reasonable prices! So if you've been wanting to try these brushes I would recommend looking in your local ASDA, also Boots have got 3 for 2 on cosmetics until mid March (which includes makeup brushes!)

February Favourites


 LUSH Dream Cream Hand and Body Lotion - I've been using this product to try and cool down my eczema, it's £13 ish for the tub (I think) but it really is worth it and I know it will last me a while.

LUSH Popcorn Lip Scrub- With the weather being so cold this has been the best product for my chapped lips, it makes them feel SO soft!

Soap and Glory- Thick and Fast Mascara- I go through phases of loving then being indifferent about this mascara, however it's been the only mascara I seem to have been using this month! It makes my lashes look nice and long and very black.

Simple- Eye roll on- This product is so cooling and perfect to use in the mornings to help wake yourself up and refresh the skin under your eyes.


TRESemme Heat protection- Lately I realized how I've stopped using heat protection on my hair so repurchased this old favourite which smells nice and products my hair against the heat of my straighteners!

LUSH American Cream Hair Conditioner- If you want amazing smelling hair, this is the product for you! It smells incredible! I usually just put this on the ends of my hair as I feel it is a bit too heavy to use on my roots. The scent lingers in your hair for absolutely ages, which for me is extremely important!

My Kindle and new case is a non beauty favourite - I've been trying to get back into reading, this month I read The Knot- Mark Watson, it's quite a quick read that tells the story of a wedding photographer and his life.


What products have you been loving this month? I'd love some suggestions of some new things to try!

My Current LUSH Collection!

At the moment I have quite a few bits from LUSH so I thought I'd take a few snaps and show you what products I'm using on a daily basis and looking forward to using soon! Going into LUSH can sometimes be quite overwhelming as there are so many products. If you're new to LUSH or are stuck on what to buy I am loving the products in the top photos, they smell AMAZING and the scent actually stays lingering on your skin for ages! The bath bombs are mainly gifts left over from Christmas which I haven't had a chance to use yet!


 -Snow Fairy Shower Gel - I am so sad I won't be able to get any more of this until Christmas!!

-Popcorn Lip Scrub- This has been amazing for the weather lately as my lips keep getting really dry and chapped from the cold and wind!

-Dream Cream Hand and Body Lotion- This does an amazing job cooling down my eczema and for putting on freshly shaven legs 

-FUN (Green)- This smells so fresh and zingy I love washing my body and hair with it!

-American Cream Hair Conditioner- This leaves your hair smelling absolutely amazing even for hours after washing your hair.

-Prince Charming Shower Gel- Valentines collection, I'm a bit iffy on the scent of this and probably wouldn't repurchase.


Bath Bombs      Bubble Bars

 Dragon's Egg                     -Candy Mountain

-Sex Bomb

-Shoot for the Stars
 
-Bombardino
   


Is there any products you would recommend that I try? I really can't wait to purchase some of the Easter and Mothers day collection and also really want to try some of the skin care products!
