Superdrug haul/ NOTD

So this is a little Superdrug haul. Just got some things I really needed.


1. Batiste Coloured Dry Shampoo
I've used the original one before and loved it. It was great to use when I didn't have time to wash my hair but I didn't like the fact the it left some white residue behind, kinda looked like really fine dandruff!! But the coloured one is amazing, it's black so no visible residue!! :)

2. Carmex
I've been really late in jumping on the Carmex bandwagon. I like it but don't really think it's that amazing, it has no colour so it's abit blah. I prefer my bodyshop Born Lippy strawberry lip balm which has a slight pink tint and smells amazing. It really helps to bring out the natural pink in my lips and is so moisturising.

So there was a 3 for 2 offer on Rimmel:
3. Rimmel natural bronzer in Sun light
Was looking for a matte bronzer and this looked matte when I was in the shop but when I tried it at home, it had noticeable shimmer. Damn Superdrug lighting :(

4. Rimmel eyebrow pencil in 004 black/brown
I love this! My brows are near enough black but I didn't want to use a black brow pencil. But this is a really dark brown, just the perfect shade for my brows :)

5. Rimmel lycra pro nail polish in Beige Babe
A gorgeous greige colour, just perfect for autumn. It applies easily, needs two coats for opaque coverage.

Barry M nail paint review

I love bright nail polishes. Much easier to have colourful nails then wearing bright eye makeup or clothes which can become too much. They just allow you to have a nice pop of colour :)

So when I spotted these beauties in Superdrug on a 2 for £5 I snapped them up.
The first shade is lemon ice cream which is a lovely pastel shade of yellow.





The only downside to this polish is that it needs 3 coats to get an opaque coverage and needs to be applied carefully as it can go streaky.

The next shade is called Mint Green, which describes the shade perfectly.
This was much easier to apply, only needed two coats but again need to be careful to avoid annoying streaky marks.




Barry M nail paints are definitely hit and miss. I've tried some that only require one coat to give a completely opaque coverage and ones just like the above that require a little extra effort. But overall love the colour selection and the price.
