ASOS Wishlist

Hello darlings!

 

So I was browsing through ASOS and found myself drooling over so many things! Since I have more time to spare what with exams being done, I thought I'd create a wishlist of the random things I want from ASOS and share it with you dolls! =D

 

 

 

What's in my Makeup Bag - Weekend Edition

Hey dearies!

 

Final exams are finally over, which means that I can breathe a huge sigh of relief and enjoy the summer holiday! It also means that I have completed my degree and am no longer an undergrad student- time sure passes quick! To celebrate, I popped down to Cardiff for the weekend to chill out and spend some time with the boyfriend. Am actually writing this in Cardiff- hee!

 

I always like looking at 'What's in my Makeup Bag' posts on blogs and have been wanting to write one of my own as well but was waiting to be done with my exams before doing so. Now that that's done, I thought I'd show what I usually tend to bring in my makeup bag for weekend getaways. When I travel, I try to bring as little makeup as possible and ones that are versatile so that I don't have to lug too much around. For your convenience, I also thought I'd include links on where you can purchase them (if available online) and my reviews on them if I reviewed a specific product. =)

 

P.S This is going to be a long post- I'm in the mood to type! =D

 

 

News: Elle UK Magazine Freebie June 2013 Issue!

Hello darlings!

 

My third exam paper finished today, and I thought I'd take a quick break and type a short post seeing how I can't exactly study for the moment since even if I tried to study now, it's unlikely anything will enter my brain. Hee!

 

I'm addicted to buying magazines- just the feel of them in my hands gives me a funny sense of happiness. If there's an extra goodie that comes free with it, now, that's even better. This month many magazines (the June 2013 issues) have different types of freebies, and it was honestly a challenge not to grab all of them and bring 'em to the till. I've been really good this time and only purchased one magazine.

 

 

 

Another Year Goes By... It's My Birthday!

Hello dolls!

 

 

 

 

The clock striked 12 last night and I completely forgot I had turned 22 until the boyfriend wished me Happy Birthday- then it hit me, it's my birthday! What with my birthday being smack in the middle of finals (I have a paper tomorrow!), it can be hard at times to feel like there actually is a celebration. But I'm just thankful that I've lived another year and blessed to be surrounded by people who love and care for me.

 

Many have asked 'So how's it feel like to be 22?'. I can honestly say I don't know- I still feel like me, only maybe a tiny wee bit older. Hee! Thank you to everyone who has texted, emailed, and commented on Facebook etc wishing me Happy Birthday. Really appreciate it and you've made my day! =D

 

PS: I thought I'd include a rare picture of me for the fun of it! =D

Beautee Haul: Soap & Glory April 2013

Hello dolls!

 

My post today was initially supposed to be my 'March Favourites 2013' but I just cannot for the life of me locate the picture on my laptop so I decided to do a very quick haul post instead. Posts on my blog will be scarce for a while because I am currently revising for my final year exams which are only two weeks away! Please bear with me- I will continue to post more after my exams are done. I have so many ideas for different types of posts too so stay tuned! =D

 

Anyway, I popped into Boots yesterday and passed by the Soap & Glory stand. Soap & Glory is currently having an offer where you can get a free 'Butter Yourself' body butter if you spend £10 or more on their body products (the offer excludes skincare and cosmetics). I hardly ever purchase Soap & Glory products because I find the price tag slightly hefty for a high street brand, but this offer piqued my interest and I ended up purchasing some goodies. Another Soap & Glory (S&G) offer that is currently going on in Boots is to 'Buy One and Get the 2nd at 1/2 Price' for skincare items, so again, due to my severe lack of self-restraint as of late, I picked up some things.
