Boots Beauty Advent calender

Everyone is very much going crazy about Christmas advent calenders right now, and my favorite beauty store boots has decided to get a piece of the action!
Meet boots first ever advent calender  "24 days of beauty treats"
www.boots.com -£30
Launching 2nd October 2013

It will include many of boots favorite brands including Soap & Glory, Nails Inc, Rimmel and many more...
Items will range from make-up, skincare, hair-care and will include miniatures as well as a few full sized products.

I can't wait to get my hands on this, and it makes a great alternative for the more expensive advent calenders getting release this year. 

This is a limited edition, and personally I think this will go out of stock pretty quick. So make sure you pop to your local store, or visit the boots website! £30 bargain!

L'oreal Skin Perfection Awakening + Correcting Eye Cream.

I've been eyeing up the serum and moisturizer from this skincare range for a while now, but during a recent visit to boots I noticed this eye cream. I swatched some on my hand in store, and wow did it make it smooth! I couldn't help myself, it was 1/3 off also, so I just had to get it. 




This promises to improve visible skin quality day after day, conceal dark circles, reduce eye bags, and smooth fine lines. I need all of this (plus more) so I was very excited to try it out. 

It massages into the eye area beautifully, and absorbs very quickly, It definitely gives my under eye area an energy boost.  I also feel that it reduces my dark circles, not fully but enough so that I don't have to use under-eye concealer.

I cant wait for payday to come, so I can treat myself to a few more items from this range.

The whole range has a 1/3 off in boots and superdrug stores.

YSL Youth Liberator Serum Foundation!

I always love a new foundation on the market, and this one I was super excited about. 


The glow of the teint touche eclat foundation with the benefits of there amazing forever youth liberator serum. 
This retails at £34.00 which I think is a great price. The Serum alone costs £61.00 for a 30ml bottle, plus the £29.00 for the touche eclat foundation. So buying this mixture is an amazing saving. 



Before! (AHHHH)                                                  &                              After :)


This foundation has a lovely silky texture which glides beautifully on to your skin, and instantly gives you that radiance and glow. The coverage is medium-full and certainly hides away many of my imperfections and redness. When first applied is will leave your skin with a light dewiness, but then slowly dries to a semi-matte finish which leaves your skin looking lovely all day. 

Overall I am very happy with this product, I did have a little trouble finding a shade at first as the shades are meant to be the same as the touche eclat (B50 for me) but I found this too dark in the serum formulation so opted for the B30 instead.   

If you are in the market for a new high end foundation, I definitely recommend you popping down to your local YSL counter :)

Victoria secrets....Pure Seduction!

So I have just discovered Victoria Secrets has now come to the UK (Yes I know i'm late) and it is amazzzzzzzzzzzzzzzing!

I Spent a very long time smelling all the body scents, and instantly fell in love with Pure Seduction.
There website describes this scent as A flirty, floral fragrance. Entice in Pure Seduction, a passionate romance of succulent red plum and sweet freesia. I would also like to add that this is very sweet and sophisticated!



I picked up the fragrance mist, and body wash. These retails for £9.00/$12.00 but I believe they also do a 5 for 30£/$ offer across all the other items and scents.
Other products include body lotion, hand lotion, body scrub, body butter and eau de toilette.

I shall defiantly be visiting the new bond street store next time i'm up london, and purchasing some more bits from the brand :)
