Boots Haul

I finally picked up the Real Techniques Retractable Kabuki Brush; I’ve been wanting to try it for a while but it was always sold-out in store. It is the same great quality as the rest of the line, it’s also convenient for travelling but still remaining a full size brush. I like to use it both for blusher and setting powder.

L’Oreal Nails a Porter in 002 Killer Nude – I picked these up to try out. I have never use fake nails before – they just seem so uncomfortable to wear – but I loved the design of these. 

Essie Nail Polish in Aruba Blue – this was a long overdue purchase. I adore this colour and blue polishes are my favourites! Not much to say in words, it’s simply stunning and the pictures are speaking for themselves, me think.

Yes To is a brand that I’m been testing lately; I tried the Yes To Cucumber Soothing Facial Wipes before and loved them so I picked up another full pack. I also wanted to try the new brightening Grapefruit line and I  bought the Yes To Grapefruit Uneven Skin Tone Dark Circle Correcting Eye Cream, which sounds fab to help lighten my dark circles… will see how it fairs.

How I spent my Boots points...

So I had about £50 worth of points to use from Boots and I decided to pick up few essentials; I don't usually use the points to treat myself to anything special but I spend them on meal deals and just everyday items, really.

Soooo glad you can now use the points online too so I placed an order on Boots.com.

I've been busy training for my new job, lately and not had a chance to pop into town... plus, I had a voucher for £5 off on orders of £45 and you get free delivery over £40... Pretty good service, really!

 As I said, I had to stock up on essentials mainly... but here you go anyway:

Compeed Blister Plasters - these were 3 for 2 and they are total saviors! I usually buy these when they are on offer as they are quite pricey. Always handy to have some in the house.

I got 2 boxes of the 'extreme' and 1 of Caroline Wozniacki... haven't tried these versions yet, hopefully they'll be even better than the regular ones.

Tea Tree Witch Hazel 6 Nose Pore Strips - also on offer in the 3 for 2; I recently spoke about these strips in my empties post.

Bodycare: I got few body creams because I use them twice a day and go through them quite quickly:

Jergens Skin Firming Tones & Tightens - never tried this before but I'm absolutely in love with the scent! I have just started using it so I can't comment how effective it is. I can only say that it takes a bit to work into the skin and it really requires some good massage action.

Nivea Firming Good-bye Cellulite Gel-Cream - another product that I haven't used before. I'm usually quite happy with Nivea products so I have good expectations for this as well.

Biotherm Celluli Laser D.Code + Biofibrine - I really like Biotherm products! I use these creams regularly, especially when I feel I need an intense treatment 'cause they give great results.

I also want to try their face serums... when I finish all the half full bottles I got around in the house, tho. :(

ahhhhh, the best for last! ;)

I also bought a small tube of the Smashbox Photo Finish Foundation Primer light oil-free.

I've been wanting to try this for ever and I'm so glad you can buy the sample, without committing to a full size bottle. Can't wait to try it out!

That's all for my Boots delivery... How do you use your points??
