Poundworld Haul

Hi All! Wow it feels like ages ago since I last wrote a blog post! I've returned to work after my maternity leave so I'm just trying to find the balance between working, looking after my boys and blogging!

I picked up these fab bargains in my local Pound World last week.

Maybelline Baby Lips.  I picked up one of each, I know these have been around for a while now but I have not tried them and couldn't resist for £1 each.

The outside packaging was not all in English so I wasn't quite sure which scents I was buying but the balms themselves have the names on in English.  I got Anti-Oxidant Berry, Cherry Velvet and Mango Pie.  These are all colourless so fab to pop under any drying lipsticks.  They all contain SPF20 so I'll be taking these on my hols.

These colourless balms retail for around £2.80 each on Amazon.

I also picked up these two Revlon Baby Sticks for Lips & Cheeks.

I got shades Sunset and Tahitian.  I found these for £3.29 each on Amazon.

My local Pound World is a bit hit and miss but sometimes it has some fab bargains like these pretties! What's the best thing you have bought from a pound shop?

Custom Made Indie Nail Polish Giveaway!

Hello everyone! I've not been around for a few weeks but I'm back with a fantastic giveaway, three full size bottles of custom made one off polishes will be winging their way to one very lucky winner!

I asked three UK indie polish companies to make me three prizes for a giveaway and I used inspiration for a couple of major events that happened to us in 2013 for a bit of inspiration!
