Beauty findings for £1

There is no secret that I love a great bargain and when I have a day off I like to walk up to my local small high street, sit down for a coffee and look into poundland.

I made a post about a year ago called 10 Makeup Products for 10 Pounds, which had products I found from Poundland...

It is always different in there and you just have to be lucky to find something great..

Here are few little things I found last week for a £1

I found the Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure Nail polishes.
These Nail polishes in general are amazing, the formula is good, and the brush is large and rounded.
I saw the gray/purple one and picked it up, there were about 10 other colors but I was in a hurry and thought I don't need anymore, but the next day I went back to grab a bright pink one that I saw but almost everything was sold out and the only color I liked was this green/teal color.
The one on the left is 404 Greige Gardens and 

the one one the right is 450 Fairy Teal

Here I am wearing the 404 Greige Gardens and it lasted around 4 days (while I was working) without chipping. I did try the Fairy Teal tonight and it was a little bit darker then I thought it would come out so I don't know if I like the color.

Last week I went to 99p store (Same as poundland except everything is 99p haha)

And I came across one of my favorite products... for 99p!

Yes this is the Garnier Tinted Eye Roll On...

The reason why it's 99p is the packaging is half in Arabic (or something like that)

The product is the same as the one I have at home and the Eye Roll was in a closed box and not used haha

Now I have two brand new (I recently bought one since mine ran out)
(I will be posting a 'empties' post soon)

What great bargain have you been spotting lately?

Thanks for Reading

Sunday Obsession #2

This week I have been using the same makeup everyday and one item I have been using has surprised me so much.

I was going through all me makeup last week and pulled out few things so I would start to use them. One of the item was MUA blush shade 2.

The colour is so pigmented and you only need a tiny bit, it does blend pretty well. Just make sure to use tiny bit and then build the colour up if you want more.

The biggest surprise was how long the blush lasted on me. I came home at night after work and the colour was still very vibrant on my cheeks.

And the best thing is that the blush is only £1! (203 krónur) Yes MAU is know for their super affordable products and tomorrow (Monday) there will be 50% off everything AND a free international delivery!

All you have to do is follow MUA on Facebook (here) and get the promo code on Monday morning. The reason for this great offer is that they have reach 50.000 likes on Facebook.

The offer will last few days and like I said 50% off everything so the blush will be 50p (102 krónur) and there is international delivery!!

So I am defiantly gonna get few lip liners and lipsticks (they will be 50p each) and probably the undress eyeshadow palette since it is know to be cheaper version of naked 1 from urban decay.

So I want to share the few products I have from MUA.

Two blushers in shade 2 and 4

They are so pigmented, I just touch them once and this is the color pay off.
Great colors for everyday makeup!

I was worried that the packaging would be super cheap but it is surprisingly steady. 

Lipstick in shade 15 (name Juicy) - only £1! 

I bought this color in Superdrug in Camden one day and I really like it. 

The lipstick is very pigmented, there is nothing amazing about this lipstick but still it is very affordable and I will definitely buy some more tomorrow. It has a very flowery scent to it but it does not bother me at all. Overall it is a nice lipstick. 

The packaging is not super sleek but still it is handy that the color of the lipstick is at the bottom so you know what lipstick you are grabbing. 

Two single eyeshadows in shades 24 and 16

As you can see from the photo the one in shade 16 broke!
Anyway I picked these up ages ago and yet again they are a pound each.
The one in shade 24 is a pearl eyeshadow and they have a lot of colors in that range but the one in shade 16 is a matt color and there are fewer colors in the matt range.
However the colors are very pigmented but the light pink matt one (shade 16) is very chalky, I don't know if it is because it broke straight away or not.

Here you can see the colors.
The one on the left is shade 16 and the one on the right is 24.
I do like shade 24 and I think it is a beautiful color to put all over the lid. 

Shade 24

Shade 16 - Here you can see the broken remains, I should  fix it but it is only 1 pound and I don't really think the color is that unique so I am not sure what to do..
The packaging is maybe the reason why this one broke, it is not as steady as the blushers. 

So please check their Facebook page out and do some shopping over the next few days.
I really recommend both blushers and the lipsticks (I am not getting the ones that have the glitter in them, just make sure you look at the photos in a close up).
The eye shadows are very pigmented but do get the pallettes and especially in undressed and heaven or earth.
HERE YOU CAN FIND THE MUA WEBSITE

10 Make up Products for 10 pounds!

My little bargain/Make up corner

10 Make up products for 10 pounds...

And these are quality make up products!

Why only a pound for each?

Where to get them? 

I got mine at my local Poundland store!

How crazy is that, Rimmel, Revlon, Sally Hansen and more

They were all packed in purple bags with the logo famous brands, when saw them thought this is fake and makes no sense that a Rimmel blush that I recently bought in boots was here in poundland for a pound!

So why are these prouduct only a pound...

Well most of these products are 'old'. these are last season, old packaging. But obviously the prouduct inside is 'fresh' and new. all of the products are un-open in their originally packaging. like the plast is still on the product and then they are in a bag from poundland. 

So what picked up over the last few weeks are 10 great products.

I also went yesterday and found my most favorite of all poundland products and that are eyeshadows. and will post a whole blog devoted to them soon..

Here are the products that I picked up:

Rimmel blush, in number 021 and is called Summer Fever

This is the reason why I started looking into this.

I just bought a brand new rimmel blush in the drustore and here is the same blush but in different colour!

That's crazy, 

It retails for about over £5 and I bought the one on the left for £1

Here have Rimmel lasting finishing lipstick in number 026 called vintage. 

This is a rosie nude with shimmer. love the colour

These are the old packaging, have like 7 other rimmel lipstick and these packaging are a bit thicker, if that makes any sense.
Also I think this colour is discontinued. 

Rimmel Vinyl Glosses, these are the old packaging.
The nude one is number 112 and called steal my kisses

And the clear one is number 171 and is called crystal clear

This one is sparkly pink number 430 and is called liquid acid.
I bought the exact packaging but in a different colour like few days earlier.
That was like 4.99 pounds!
So this is most likely discontinued colour. 

Revlon Créme Gloss in 015 called Play up Pink.
I really like this berry, rosy pink colour. Very Creamy.

Another Revlon lip gloss, this one in tube and is a purply berry colour.
It is called Beach Plum. 

This actually surprised me, I did not think this would be worth even a pound but Oh my.
There are 4 colours in this 'wheel', the middle one is such a good shimmer colour and the light brown is perfect for blending and the dark brown with the shimmer is so pigmented!
A big hit!
and only a POUND

Sally Hansen nail polish, these are not cheap one.
I don't care to much for the colour but it is a Hot pink shimmer colour and frankly, it is a bargain.

This was the first thing I bought at Poundland, and this colour is called coralicious and is number 430, and I saw it (that exact) in my local pharmacy for something like 3 pounds.

Well...

I am really liking that I can find these kind of bargain!

And I will post soon the biggest hit from poundland.. stay tuned :)

Hope you enjoyed this:)

Have you ever found any make up bargain in your local poundland store?

A little bargain bag

My little fashion corner

On the 24th, I headed down to Oxford Street in hoping to finish some last minute shopping.

Surprisingly, i have never seen so few people down in Oxford street.

Anyway, I did a bit of shopping, and picked up few things for me.

My favorite is this cute, bag

I love the caramel brown color, and on the inside there is a really cute fabric..!

And my favorite about this bag...

It was only 3 pounds
From Primark

Right now I am cursing myself for not picking up the bag in different colors as well!

plus it will be perfect for spring:)

What do you think?
