American Haul....

Hi Lovelies :) Hope you are all doing okay!! This post is one that ive been quite excited about. Even though its a small haul its all from AMERICA!!! i came across the site 'Cosmetics and Candy' from twitter where they a range of beauty, sweets and drinks from America that can be shipped to the UK. I have only opted for a small section of goodies. I love watching american youtubers they have some really interesting products :)
Of course the first thing i was eager to try out was the chocolate chip pop tarts i am a massive chocolate lover and i know here in the UK we have pop tarts but only the simple flavours. I had one of them  yesterday and heated it on a low setting in the microwave and it tastes AMAZING :) if any of you are a lover of Dominos Pizza Cookies then its basically like that with the 'gooey' middle but stretches out and with a slight pastry taste. So good :) I would love to try out more of the flavours!! mmmmmm yumm!!

The Kool Aid Pink Lemonade was just a random purchase. Ive always wanted to know what pink lemonade tasted like and its quite sweet with a sherbet tang to it . Not sure if im a fan but im glad ive now ticked pink lemonade off my list.



(Swatch 'Blush Twist') 

Having heard from beauty youtubers about the Covergirl Lip Perfection Jumbo Lip Twists i was really wanting to try one of them out. Roughly i would say they are the same price as the Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stains. The shade i opted for was the Blush Twist a beautiful Pink colour that is perfect for Spring. The colour is lovely and pigmented and the balm is so moisturising with added Shea Butter and Mango. A little bit definately goes a long way but it stays on for a good 6 hours or so i would say. 





The Maybelline Dream Bouncy Blush is my 'go to' blush at the moment. Mine is in the shade Rose Petal and it gives the most natural looking flush of colour. It has a lovely bouncy texture that is really lightweight. I used this with the Real Techniques Stippling Blush and it applied like a dream!! I will be using this soon and a in more depth review!!


The Maybelline Baby Lips is again another product i was really wanting to try. Lip balms are forever scattered around my bedroom and in my bags. They always seem to disappear so another one needed to be mine :) I thought the peppermint one would be perfect. It doesnt have an overpowering mint smell and the moisture it gives to your lips is amazing. I love that it has an added Spf 20. Will be handy to use on holidays too. 

So that is all for my small American haul. I hope you enjoyed reading. I may try out Australia next? :)

What American products would you like to try out?

Feeling Fruity!!

Lately ive been loving lovely fruity smells which just smell so divine :) i associate the smells of fruit with freshness just something about it!! Anyways in my latest haul i brought two products from body shop. 
The first one is the born lippy strawberry lip balm for £2. This little lip balm has the most nicest smell of strawberries ever!! It gives a slight red tint and a lovely bit of gloss. It doesnt feel gloopey nor does it dry your lips out. Your lips feel so hydrated and moisturized.  Its so handy to carry around this lip balm around and ive forever been using it at uni!! So yes i have been loving this balm.
The next item is the Vitamin C energizing face spray for £9.00. Ive used the serum a few years ago and i just remember my skin being so clear from using it so i thought i would try and go along that same product line again. The smell of this product is insane probably my favourite smell ever. Its really orangey and tangy if thats a word?!! It bring instant hydration and revives the appearance of your skin. Its so cute and will be handy for summer. Ive been using this in a morning after ive had a shower just to wake me up abit more but also for my skin. Ive notice my skin being more hydrated and i feel much more awake when using this little beauty!!
Have you got any recommendations of fruity products?
