ASOS Rimmel Mini Haul!

Hello lovelies,

Just a small post about my small haul from ASOS. As I posted a few days ago, ASOS had Rimmel products for 30% off. This is such a steal since most of these are not going to be discontinued any time soon. Here is what I got:


Stay Matte Pressed Powder in Pink Blossom - £2.50 each
Glam Eyes Eyeliner - £3.50 each
Metal Rush Nail Polishes in 'Royal Blue' and 'Purple Reign' - £2.50 each

In a way, I regret not buying more Rimmel products as I love there products and these eyeliners do not tend to be cheapest on the market (£5.29 in Superdrug!). These eyeliners also tend to be highly recommended in magazine (such as The Sunday Times Style Magazine).

I also wanted to complete my collection the the 'Metal Rush' polishes as I love duo-chrome! I have owned 'Purple Reign' before and it was gloopy but I'm hoping for better this time as it has come from a warehouse where it will less likely have been tampered with.

I am also a huge fan of Rimmel's 'Stay Matte' pressed powder! It is the only one I have found on the market that suits my skin tone perfectly. I highly recommend it.

Have you shopped on ASOS for some Rimmel bargains?

Fragrance Direct Haul!

Hello all! I apologise I've not posted anything for a few days. I have just been very busy and found it hard to get the time to come online. However, I have been looking forward to writing this post :)  (Do excuse the blurry photos)

This is what I have been excited for over a fortnight. My mum and I had ordered two lots of products between us. She placed the first order, then I made a second order. You may think this sounds odd but if you have been reading any of my perfume post, you will know my mum and I were organising party bags for someone's birthday. We wanted to put in each bag a nail varnish each. The cheapest place to purchase branded polish is Fragrance Direct (we do not have a pound shop near us :( ).

So we put in a big order! And this is what we got...


 Rimmel Nail Polishes
(L-R) Red Carpet,Fast and Fushia, Man Overboard (back, Dark Grey), Pink Punch, Euphoria, Star Kissed, Ethereal, Princess Pink, Celebrity Bash, Purple Addict & Magnetise.

Essie is 'Mojito Madness' & 'Neo Whimsical', Rimmel Glam Eyes Eyeliner
in 'Diamond Kiss' and 'Intense Plum'

The Essie 'Mojito Madness' and both Rimmel Eyeliners were what I purchased for myself while all the Rimmel nail polishes were for the party bags. My mum bought herself 'Neo Whimsicle' as she loves a nude polish :)

The reason we bought a second haul was because I had spotted Fragrance Direct had put more OPI polishes online and noticed they had 'Nothin' Mousie 'Bout It' available to buy. I have been seeking this one for ages but never seen it at the right price so I had to get it. And after my Mum had received more responses to the party invite, it meant she had to buy more polishes 
for each bag. So this is what we got...

The second haul.
(L-R) OPI: Nothing Mousey 'Bout It, The Color of Minnie, Rimmel: Magnetise, Grey Matter, 'Ready, Aim, Paint!', Sorbet So Good, Revlon Lip Gloss 'Shine City, Sally Hansen Salon Manicure 'Hidden Treasure', Rimmel 'Purple Addict'

A few bits for myself.

I got quite a few bits for myself. I bought:
  • OPI 'Nothin' Mousey 'Bout It'
  • Rimmel 'Sorbet So Good'
  • Pretty Quick Nail Polish Remover pot
  • W7 Eyeshadow Brush (04)
  • Revlon Lip Gloss in 'Shine City'
  • OPI Tiny Treats (Complete with mini Nail Envy, Chip Skip, Rapid Dry Top Coat and Acetone Free Nail Polish Remover)
My other OPI is the 'Colour of Minnie' which my Mum had seen before and love the colour.

Good news is, we over ordered accidentally so we got to keep a couple we liked for ourselves. I kept Rimmel 'Purple Addict', Sally Hansen 'Hidden Treasure', Rimmel 'Red Carpet' and Rimmel 'Grey Matter'.

I am so excited about all these products that I will share them with you soon. My favourite of the whole haul is the OPI Tiny Treats. I have heard a lot of good things about 'Nail Envy' that I cannot wait to try it out!

I'm a little disappointed in the colour of Essie's 'Mojito Madness' as it looked a little different that the photos I had seen. But you never know, I might be pleasantly surprised :)

Do any of you like Fragrance Direct? Do you tend to buy 'hauls' from there?
