Haul / Topshop, MAC, Boots, Lush, Primark and Beales

Heey, this might get long...

You must be getting bored of me saying this but, I went shopping with Zoe last weekend and I bought quite a few things I would like to show you!

The first place we went was Beales. Beales is a department store and I think they have quite a few stores in England but our local one is quite big and on the ground floor it has a beauty and accessories, the lower ground has home, then the above floors are things like clothing and I think it might have a cafe?

We went to the lower floor for get my Mum a present for Mothers Day (my last post was 'Mother's Day ideas' click HERE to see that post). I bought her a cute little plaque with a funny quote. This was £5 and I think that is such a good price for somethings as cute as that! They also have ones in other colours with other sayings on. Not only do they have these plaques but also other ones for around the same price.

After buying that, we went to the ground floor and straight to the MAC section. I wanted to buy the MAC Brush Cleaner for a while but I never got round to it. I finally had enough money, so I parted with my £10 and off I went with a new brush cleaner! If you wanted to know, I later on cleaned mine and Zoe's brushes and it was an amazing product. I will hopefully do a post on how I clean my brushes soon.

After MAC, we moved to Topshop. I love Topshop and all of the clothes in there, Zoe and I spend a long period of our life just dreaming of Topshop shorts and jeans because they are so perfect ;). But today I wasn't looking at clothes, I went to buy a lipstick. I have never owned a Topshop lipstick but I'd wanted one for ages so I finally went for it, handed over £8 and I was the owner of a brand spanking new 'Nevada' lipstick. The packaging is amazing and looks so pretty on my counter top. I feel like I will have more in my collection soon!

Lush was obviously next on our agenda (yes, the night before we planned our whole trip like it was a once in a lifetime opportunity). I looked on the website before I went so I had a good idea of what they had in their new Easter and Mothers day collection. I wanted either 'Inhale, Exhale' or 'Secret Garden'. I liked the look of both and the description. However when I got to the store I decided I didn't like the smell of Inhale, Exhale. £2.95 later and I had purchased Secret Garden. By the way, can we give Zoe a round of applause because she didn't buy anything from Lush. I think that's a first *clapclapclap*

I believe the next place we graced our presence was Boots, a favourite of ours, and we spent about half an hour in their just looking, swatching, looking again, swatching again, picking something up, putting it down because we didn't have enough money. We went through this painful process about 4 or 5 times before I came away with a new £4.19 Collection Lasting Perfection Ultimate Wear Concealer in shade 2/Cool Medium while Zoe walked out with 3 new Maybelline Colour Show Nail Polishes (if you're lucky, she might post about them).

We then went to New Look and tried on a few Spring/Summer dresses but, we couldn't really afford it, so we just admired. We did however go to Primark which was more in our price range (we had spent all our money on other things, we're not cheap! Okay, maybe a little bit) also trying on a few tops, shorts, dresses and whatnot. I picked up a really pretty Pink Floyd top (yes I do sometimes listen to their music). The top itself is quite sheer so I do layer it with a black vest top underneath. If you want to see what Zoe bought then click HERE to go to her blog and I'll try and get her to post a haul as well :) It's quite big and oversized but I love that style of top because I can tuck it into a pair of jeggings and I'm good to go.

Happy Wednesday to you, I hope you have a lovely day, subscribe for posts Saturdays and Wednesdays, I will speak to you, very soon for a new post about my favourite Lush products (by the way, if you want to see what my next posts are, I have a section on the right sidebar which will tell you whats coming up)

Hugs and kisses
