I was gifted Oribe's Royal Blow Out and Supershine Moisture cream today. I am beyond pleased, I've always wanted to try these products but was reluctant to shell out the cash as they really are a luxe range. I hope I don't like them too much.

They smell out of this world...

I did a cosmetic shop this week because I'm having a style overhaul I bought...

Superdrugs own MUA range eyebrow pencil, a lip liner and two lipsticks, all a quid each, mascara for £2 and BB Cream for £4. I love MUA, all the make ups last all day without needing to touch them up unlike some other cheap brands.

And I bought my staple shampoo and conditioner, VO5 Nourish My Shine from Savers for £2 each.

I'm a bit of a cosmetics bargain hunter I have to say!

MUA is such good value I ordered one of their velvet lip laquers with a revlon lip butter and a collection lipstick on the superdrug website. 3 or 2 and free delivery when you spend over £10.

Did an order on Fragrance Direct, some amazing bargains on there:

Rimmel Moisture Renew Lipstick Funtime Fuchsia
Badger Balm Lavender & Orange Lip Balm
Orly Nail Polish 18ml (Lifes A Peach) (only £2.99!)
Bourjois Une Skin Glow Foundation
Elizabeth Arden Ceramide Cream Blush (Honey (03))

Everything apart from the blush, which was £5.50 (£26 in Boots!) and the lipstick (£1.50) was £2.99, all a lot cheaper than they would be in Boots etc.

3 for 2 on Soap and Glory stuff so bought some shower cream and 2 tubes of foot cream. I read somewhere that the foot cream was good to get rid of those annoying little chicken skin spots that I sometimes get when my arms have not had enough UV. Apparently Flexitol is very good for this but I can't abide the smell and it is too thick to spread all over my arms and the S&G one is thinner with a more acceptable smell.

Ran out of my Perricone Face Finishing Moisturiser and promptly bought another. It feels like a dream on my skin.

Dove Oxygen Moisture Treatment Souffle- new product, a weightless hair mask for fine hair. I have just used. Feels okay but the true test is when I wake up in the morning. Often masks make my hair limp, okay before bed but a mess the next day.

An Art Deco lip gloss. Usually quite pricey but I got this in a sale in a dept store (£4). Nice nudey shade.

Yes, I liked it. It definetly did not weigh my hair down and gave me just the right amount of moisture. I don't think it would be that great for someone with dry hair. My hair looked nice and swingy the next morning.

Moving on to today, I bought a body lotion from Neutogena - it has nordic berries in, not that I know why that is a selling point. £4.99 for a huge pump dispenser (400ml) from S'drug. Also, L'Oreal Micellar Water Cleanser, just right for summer and always on offer somewhere. A third off in S'Drug at the moment. I have also made an online purchase of two old OPI nail polishes. I have only seen the shades online so they could be expensive mistakes. They are from a 2012 limited edition with a German theme. I got Schnapp out of it and Every month is Oktoberfest - or something like that. An orange and a plum shade. Quite restrained for me on a Saturday!

Clarins Golden Booster Drops. That is not the official title, it has even more words, but it will do. It is a new Self tanning product for the face.Add three drops to moisturiser and it gives you a glow. Add more and you get more tanned. It has been out in US for a while and gets good reviews. Not used yet.
In case anyone is interested in what this was like. I did not like it. Made my face look sallow. A faff too. I have used Clarins facial self-tanning cream for years - and as long as I do not use every day, that gives me tge right amount of believable glow. I should have stuck to that one rather than the new Clarins kid on the block.

Bumble and Bumble mini blow dry set. £3 down from £7.50, I have thick hair already but it's quite flat due to the weight of my hair and the thickening spray in this set gives it more volume.
Bumble and Bumble mini dry spun hairspray £2.50 not tried this before, heck I've never bought hairspray in my life but I like the brand and it was on sale.
Above all from Boots

Also bought some Scholl party feet gel inserts for £2.49 down from £4.99 on clearance in Tesco
