Anyway, I'm going to begin by stating the obvious and say that this isn't a prom series post... after doing a good few posts in this series, I realise that for my readers who come to read beauty reviews and hauls and who aren't going to a prom, it could get a bit boring. So today's post is all about what I have been up to recently...
On Sunday I went out for lunch with some friends and afterwards (as well as before hand) we did a spot of shopping. As my birthday is just around the corner (next Sunday!) I didn't buy too much...however, everything was beauty related and so I'm going to show you all what I brought.
Firstly after reading Lily Pebbles' review on the Topshop highlighters that she recently purchased, I decided that I would go out and buy them myself to try them out and review them. When paying at the till, I let slip that I was buying them thanks to Lily and the assistant said she read Lily's post too! I will link Lily's review below so you can read her opinions on these gorgeous products! (This isn't my review on them, that will be coming soon!)

Next I popped into Boots and spent ages in there...literally ages. I picked up some Katy Perry for Eyelure eyelashes because I was looking for the Mille Mackintosh ones but couldn't see them :-( however these Cool Kitty ones look lush and I can't wait to try them!

I also got a new Essie nail polish in Cute As A Button which is a gorgeous coraly, pinky summer shade that is so warm and summery and makes me feel happy. It is certainly a shade that will be featuring heavily on my nails this summer! So todays Manicure Monday is Essie Cute As A Button!
I then went to Superdrug which was probably a bad idea in some ways... I picked up the Real Techniques Stippling Brush which I have been wanting ever since I purchased the Core Collection. The reason why I held off was because I was so in love with my MAC 187 and I didn't want to disregard it and hardly ever use the amazing makeup brush that cost me close to £40...however, I gave in and brought it and it is amazing! I will be doing a full review of it soon as I only got it yesterday but already I can tell that I'm going to love it and it will become one of my favourites!
I also got a new, cheap moisturiser because my skin is really dry at the moment and what with the weather warming up I will probably want to start fake tanning so I need nice soft skin! E45 cream is something that I have used in the past to help dry skin etc.
The last thing I got from Superdrug was the Accessorize 4D nails in Stardom. Basically these are the Ciate Caviar nails but they are only £5, and after having spent an arm and a leg on the velvet nails set which I was disappointed with, I would buy a cheaper version and see how I get on. I'm really excited to use this set as I think the blue colour scheme is really pretty. Lets hope they last!
The last thing that I picked up was a new Bubblegum Lip Scrub from lush as I have really dry, chapped lips at the moment and so though I would buy myself a new lip scrub...
A few of these products I will soon be writing reviews for so stay tuned!
More of an unusual part to my blog...Today, I went to a farm with my friend Lucy and we had a great time holding baby animals like goats, ducklings, goslings, piglets and rabbits as well as feeding sheep! Here's me holding a baby goat!
Hope you all had a lovely sunny bank holiday!
