Norwich Haul (Mostly Inspired by VelvetGh0st)

So on Tuesday 19th of August, I went to Norwich so naturally I went into Chapelfield Shopping Centre and hit the shops. I went to Boots, Superdrug, The Perfume Shop and Next. Here is what I bought:

My first little section of this post is make up. I picked up two nail polishes. The first polish I bought is  'Peace and Mauve' from Bourjois' So Laque Glossy collection. I'm wearing this one at the moment and it's a very interesting shade. It's like a nude pastel; very pale but also very natural. I love the gel formula but this one did take 3 coats. 'Peace and Mauve' was £5.99 from Superdug. This purchase was inspired by Youtuber Gabby/Velvetgh0st (my favourite atm - so a lot of my purchases were of her recommendation!) 

The second polish I picked up was also of a gel formula - another Barry M Gelly! I'm obsessed with these polishes and I now have an embarrassingly large collection but I had to pick up this bright barbie pink, again, because Gabby convinced me to! This polish, named 'Pink Punch' was £3.99 from Superdug and these usually take 2 coats but you could get away with one.

The next two products are for my lips. The first being my 4th Tanya Burr lip gloss in 'Let's Travel The World' - a beautiful orange-red that is good for people like me who are too scared to wear a red lipstick but want something eye-catching. This lip gloss was £6.99 from Superdrug, and with high pigmentation, one of my firm favourites. 

My next lip product is the Nivea Natural lip balm in the 'Milk and Honey' flavour. I know this is a theme, but I bought this because of Gabby! I'm a bit of a lip balm hoarder, but I've found this to be at the top of my list as it has the natural properties of the Body Shop lip butters that I love, but in stick form so is easier and cleaner to use. I wasn't sure of the scent at first but it's growing on me as a light, natural scent. This was £1.99 from Boots. 

Before I get into my review of the next two products - I'll say that, once more, these were both inspired by Gabby - that naughty girl making me buy things!

The first buy is a Tangle Teezer. I would never have bought one of these as I wasn't convinced that they would work properly, especially on my thick hair but oh. my. god. I love this thing! It glides through my hair, brushing it without pulling. Also, these brushes are supposed to prevent split ends.This was £10.99 from Boots - a little pricey for a hairbrush if you ask me, but definitely worth it!

My next buy was another that I would never even consider buying unless Gabby had told me how good it was! The Garnier Ultimate Blends Sleek Perfecter Oil is a wonderful product. The coconut oil in it gives your hair wonderful scent and makes it so , well, sleek! I run this through my hair about 10 minutes after I get out of the shower and leave my hair to dry fully. I got this treasure for £4.97 from Superdrug but I know this wasn't the full price. It is £9.99 on the Boots website so go to Superdrug for this one!

This is Katy Perry's new perfume - Royal Revolution. I'm a huge fan of Katy's perfumes Killer Queen and Oh So Sheer so I had to give this one a sniff when I saw it in the shop. Of course, I loved it so I bought it. This was the first perfume I have ever bought for myself so this one will always be special for me. The Perfume Shop say this on their website:

• Heart notes

  Sandalwood, Orange Flower, Jasmine Petals

• Top notes

  Pink Freesia, Pomegranate

• Base notes

  Black Thorn, Skin Musk, Vanilla Orchid

I love this fragrance and I also got a free gold and black tote bag with my purchase as I bought the 50ml bottle. This was £28.99.

My final purchase is an Autumnal mug from Next. I love Autumn so whenever I see something like this, I have to get it. This cute little mug has a hedgehog in orange leaves on either side and the words "Just rustling around" on the inside for you to read as you drink. Perfect for hot chocolate, coffee or tea, this adorable gift is a bargain at just £3.

So that is all I bought from my little trip to Norwich. 

I'm lucky enough to be in Spain next week, but this means I don't know if I will be able to get a blog post up, but hopefully I will - it all depends on the internet. Though there will definitely be a post the week after!
