Collective Haul: Lush, Feel Unique & Apple

Friday 22 August 2014

I've not done a haul post for a while, so it's no surprise that this is going to be a small post :)
These are just some items that I have brought in the last couple of week's.

Because I having been working more hours, than normal since going full-time at work, I now have found it a lot easier to buy my things online. So when I found out that I had ran out of my favourite mascara I turned very quickly to Feel Unique.



I wasn't expecting the Benefit, They're Real! mascara to be cheaper, but at the same time Benefit had just released their new push up eye liner.
I also needed some more shampoo, but rather than go along with a brand and type that I knew worked, I opted for the John Frieda Colour Renew for Blondes, rather than my regular Colour highlighting one.
I know what you're thinking, I don't have blonde hair, but I do have blonde colour treated hair as my ombre, and actually this shampoo has worked wonders! It leaves my hair so soft and people have asked if I have had my hair coloured again, which I haven't. Last time I had my hair coloured was back in DECEMBER!
Ombre is amazing for lasting ages, plus I'm trying to grow my hair long! :)




This girl right here is a complete sucker for freebies, so when i saw that if i brought two items from Benefit I would receive a free LUGGAGE TAG! Yes, a luggage tag.. I will probably never use it, but you never know.. ha!
Other free items included samples of more shampoo and conditioner... haha!




Moving on over to Lush. I've never brought items from Lush, and in the past have steered clear from their shops as I would find the smell a bit over powering. However, with my brother not using his bath for 3 months (he is currently away in Canada, and has usage of the family bathroom which has the only bath in the house, in it) and watching copious amounts of videos and reading blogs about Lush hauls, I thought I would jump on the band wagon.




I brought not one, but 4 bath bombs and made sure that they were all bubble starters. I was given a Santa bath bomb from Lush for Christmas and was slightly disappointed to have no bubbles in bath!

My choices were:

The Comforter Bubble Bar
The Brightside
Dorothy Bubble Bar
Pop in the Bath Bubble Bar

Writing all this, I've noticed that since buying them, I've not even had time to try them out and are currently sat on the side in my room.... I really should take advantage of a free bath, he's back in a couple of weeks!

My final purchase, and most exciting one, is my new PC. Funny story really, went in to LOOK at Apple MacBooks. Two hours later, left with a 27" Apple Mac.. yeah!
I am glad with my purchase as it is now helping me edit photos to a much higher standard. I am no longer squinting at a small 15" screen on a laptop, trying to find the Wi-Fi signal.
I am IN LOVE with my new toy.. absolutely love it. However, I do find the added extras for the Mac are ridiculously priced, so I will be keeping my laptop incase I need to put anything on discs.




That is everything! Let me know if you have had any different Lush Bath Bombs that you think I should try :)

Until next time,
