August Favourites

With September only a few days away I'm starting to feel quite wintery. Where did the summer go? Here are my August favourites.

Jemma Kidd Make Up School I-Glamour Volume Mascara - My Mam got this free in the July issue of Red Magazine, she didn't want it so she gave it to me. I LOVE this mascara! I will do a full review on it soon. One of my favourite mascaras I have ever tried.

Avon's Naturals Key Lime & Passion Flower Volumising Shampoo - I was loving this shampoo this month. It really gave my hair a nice lift. Unfortunately I used it all up. I'm devastated as it's been discontinued. Wail. :( For a full review click here.

Beauty UK blush in 08 Dolly Pink - A gorgeous bright pink blush. It might look shocking pink but it looks great on my pale skin. 

Body Shop Beautifying Oil - I'm still LOVING this product. I have used it everyday since I got it in June and still have loads left. It is the first product I have found that finally keeps my dry skin away. For a full review click here! 

Me Before You by Jojo Moyes - This is the first time I have included a book in my monthly favourites. This book is a great read. From the first couple of pages I was hooked. Great characters and a great story line.

Until next month!

Sales Haul

I have been trying my best not to buy anything in the sales (as I'm trying to save money.) Unfortunately, I didn't succeed in my shopping ban, I only bought a few things though and didn't go too crazy! 

Leopard Print Faux Fur Scarf - I picked this up in Dunnes Stores for €3.00 (reduced from €5) I forgot to bring a scarf one day so I was freezing! I bought this to warm me up! I wanted to get a faux fur scarf for ages, so I'm quite pleased with this.

Top Shop Earrings- I love these earrings! I think they are so pretty! They have a bit of a Downton Abbey look to them. They were a bargain at €4.50 (reduced from €12.50)

Penneys / Primark Necklace - This flower necklace was only €1 (reduced from €3) I'm always breaking necklaces so picked this up to add to my 'work wear' necklaces.

Revlon Nail Builders 'Grow 10' - My nails have been in bits lately so I have been looking for something to give them some TLC. I picked this up in the cosmetics shop in Georges Street Arcade for only €3. Hopefully help my poor nails.

James Corden 'May I have your Attention Please' Autobiography - I'm a huge 'Gavin and Stacey' fan so I wanted to buy James Cordon's book. I looked before Christmas and it cost €18.50!! I however, found it while browsing in a charity shop for €1! Yes €1! It was brand new and looked like it had never been read. (I'd say it was an unwanted Christmas present!) I'm about half way through and really liking it.

So that's my sale haul. Not bad for €12.50! :)
