Just the essentials haul

So yesterday I finally admitted to myself that I had run out of too many things to not be able to justify getting myself to the shops! I thought i would LOVE being back at the tills... but actually i didn't get the rush i normally get from being handed a bag of new things. To be honest, i felt a bit guilty...maybe I'm just out of practice!?

Like i said in yesterdays blog, I was getting only the essentials and strictly drugstore only. So here's what made the final cut from your suggestions:

Mascara - MaxFactor false Lash Effect Mascara in Black, £10.76 (Boots £2 off voucher took it to £8.76!Huzzah!)

Liquid Liner - Boots 17 Liquid Liner in Black, £3.91

Blush - Skin Loving Minerals Blush in 01 Pink, £7.82

And swatched with flash. I'll do a full review on this for anyone who's interested.

Kohl Pencil - GOSH lets twist eyeliner in Carbon Black, £5.87

Thanks everone who gave me recommendaions in yesterday post. i had great fun swatching them all today and am pretty dam happy with my final decisions. And lastly as a special treat from the BF: Lush goodies!

BUFFY(the backside slayer) - on the left in the picture: "Lush's best seller in the Body Butters. Exfoliating scrub for the seating area" (but i assume i can be used all over the body!?) and AQUA MIRABILIS BODY BUTTER - "aqua is even more scrubby than buffy it will leave your skin smooth and silky giving you a great exfoliating shower or bath" . I cant wait to try these out!
