Guess who had a cheeky little pop into Boots and Superdrug while visiting the UK.... -raises hand- Guilty.
It was like a beauty blog-obsessor's dream to be surrounded in stands that we don't have in the US like Soap and Glory and Bourjois. I swear my friends must've thought I was all kinds of nuts rambling off about the Barry M nail varnishes and my strange desire to own a "Tangle Teezer," but I'm sure if you're reading this you've at least heard about the awesome Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer. Am I right? I must admit I've been listing up a few bits and bobs that intrigued me from the moment I found out I was going to have a stop in London (though I did do a bit of drugstore hopping in Oxford and Edinburgh as well). From all of the YouTube monthly favorites to beauty hauls on my favorite UK blogs, I am quite pleased with what I managed to pick up across the pond. Not to mention the KIKO eyeshadows I fell in love with while still in Italy, which I decided would just be wrapped up into this overview of foreign cosmetics while I was at it. Interested in hearing how I got along with these? Leave me a little note, or I may just get around to talking about them all eventually anyway!

I don't know how I ever survived without one!
DeleteI saw versions of it but I thought maybe I should try the original... My hair doesn't tangle as much so I don't know if I even need one...

It's a great excuse to go! Haha, I can't wait to be back in the UK
DeleteI really want to try Soap and Glory body wash, but they're pretty pricey aren't they?
ReplyDeleteAlso, that Sleek contouring palette looks like something I would want!!

Yeah, that's why I opted for the mini sample, but perhaps a sale at Sephora will convince me to buy! The Sleek palette has turned out to be my favorite purchase from this haul (:
