Back in October I posted this which was the day I got my kitten, Smokey. Well, 2 weeks ago Smokey's mum had more kittens and I got to meet them and they're so cute I had to share some photos of them!

 I think this has to be my favourite photo, they both look so cute!

I hope you're all enjoying your Sunday!

Since the weather still isn't brilliant in the UK, I thought I'd make my nails look pretty and sparkly to make up for the awful weather!

First of all I applied my ELF nail polish in 'Mint Cream'. It's only £2.50 and such a gorgeous colour! I applied two coats of this, and let it dry.

Then once 'Mint Cream' had dried I applied two coats of this gorgeous polish, Nails Inc 3D Glitter Polish in 'Fitzroy Square' which I love. I completely forgot I even had this in my collection and I was so excited to use it! It's a bit more expensive than the ELF nail polish as it is £11, but it's so pretty that it's worth it!

 Finally I applied a coat of Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Anti Chip Top Coat (which is a bit of a mouthful!) because I absolutely hate waiting around for my nails to dry. Once I've applied this they're dry to the touch in about 30 seconds. This is £5.99 but for me, it's worth it entirely.

This is how they look when they're finished! I am so in love with the colour and how sparkly and pretty they are!

Do you enjoy wearing sparkly nail varnish?

So today on my lunch break I accidentally (on purpose) ended up in Boots and I took advantage of their 3 for 2 offer on cosmetics and the half price offer on selected products from their Botanics range.

I'll start off with the make up bits I picked up. Like I've already said it's on 3 for 2 and so I obviously had to take advantage of that, I couldn't just buy one thing could I?!

I've been wanting to try a BB Cream for a while now, but my skin has always been quite bad so I always wore full coverage however since my skin has got slightly better recently I thought I'd purchase one! First of all I spotted the Maybelline Dream Fresh BB Cream which was £7.99 and was the most expensive out of my make up purchases. I did a quick swatch and compared it to the 17 BB Cream which was only £6.99 (only £1 difference but I'm saving for my holiday in summer so every little helps!) and the 17 BB Cream seemed a lot darker so I went for the Maybelline BB Cream. I'm super excited to try this since today it has been Spring weather and it's not snowed! Of course I bought this in the lightest shade 'Light'.

 Next I re-purchased my favourite concealer, Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer for £4.19. I think this is the third time I've bought this concealer now and for me that's quite a big thing since I never usually re-purchase products! I bought this in 'Fair 1' and it matches my skin almost perfectly.

This is another re-purchase for me since I'm running out of my Soap and Glory Thick and Fast Mascara. This Collection Supersize Mascara is a bargain at only £2.99 and I got it in 'Ultra Black'. I love to just chuck this in my make up and bag and know I can make my eyes look more awake and my lashes look better at such a cheap price as well.

 Now onto the items I bought from the Botanics range. I've never actually tried any of the Botanics products before but since selected items were 1/2 price I thought I had to take advantage of this!

I had seen Emma (Roselovelybones) mention this in one of her videos, and I wanted to try it out so I checked online and couldn't find it, however it was there right at the bottom of the shelf in my Boots. It's at an introductory price of £5.99 until the 17th April and then it will be £8.99 so if you're interested in trying it out I'd suggest you buy it whilst it's cheaper! Anyway, I know it might seem a bit silly to buy two BB Creams in one go, but I couldn't resist! I also got this in 'Light' and I'll do a review of this in a few weeks time.

 Finally I bought the Botanics All Bright Purifying Face Scrub which was on offer for £2.69 (usually £3.99) and I only bought this because it's on offer. I've not read any reviews about this specifically but I've heard the  Botanics range is meant to be really good, so I'm going to give it a go!

Have you taken advantage of the 3 for 2 offer on at Boots at the moment?

I've had this post in my drafts since January which is ridiculous and I'm not sure why I haven't posted it before! Anyway, I'm doing a review on the Barry M Gelly Hi Shine Nail Paint in 'Pomegranate'. When I first got this nail polish I'd not seen anyone blog about it or it mentioned in any Youtube videos, however now I'm seeing reviews a lot more. I think I bought this when it was released and so there weren't many colours avaliable, however now there are 13 different colours. They are currently £3.99 and are available from Superdrug or the Barry M website.

The packaging is almost identical to the normal range of Barry M Nail Paints with the square base on the bottom which fits nicely into storage next to each other. I am so glad I bought this, it's absolutely amazing. It's so glossy after two coats, the only thing is it can stain your nails a little if you don't apply a base coat.
'Pomegranate' is such a beautiful colour as well, and even though it's not a typical Spring colour I know I'll be wearing this a lot. I'm hopefully going to pick up some of the other shades next time I can!

Have you tried the Gelly Hi Shine Polishes?

I don't usually go into Lush when I go shopping because I know I'll spend all my money in there (which is both good and bad!) however, I ordered a few things online on Monday. I was told they'd arrive by next Monday so I was so happy when they arrived today so only took two days which is amazing (considering Monday was a bank holiday). I apologise in advance that this is a picture heavy post!

It was packaged with the polystyrene peanuts which was obviously to prevent any damage whilst in transit.

First off I bought the Karma Bubble Bar purely because it looks so pretty! I've never actually tried a bubble bar either and this was £3.15.

Sticking to Bubble Bars I bought the Mumkin Bubble Bar because it was too cute to not buy! It just looks adorable and was only  £2.75 which is a bargain.

The last Bubble Bar I bought was the Creamy Candy Bubble Bar for £2.50. Once again, I just thought this looked cute and wanted to try it!

The next item I purchased was the Twilight Bath Bomb which is £3.20 and when I got this out of the packet I was honestly shocked at how big it is! I wanted to try this because I'd seen quite a few reviews and pictures of how pretty it looks in the bath, and we all love buying pretty things don't we?!

This is the second to last item I purchased and it's the Fluffy Egg Bath Bomb. I bought this because it was Easter Monday when I made my order and so of course I had to buy something to do with Easter! This cute bath bomb was only £2.95. 

Finally I purchased the Dragon's Egg Bath Bomb which I was probably most excited about. It not only looks adorable, but from looking at photos it makes the bath look beautiful too. However, it arrived damaged (photo above) and I'm not sure if I'm meant to contact Lush and tell them or just use it? If anyone knows what I should do, I'd appreciate some help here please!

~~Update~~ I emailed Lush last night explaining what had happened and attached the photo above, and they replied very quickly and they're going to send me a new Dragon's Egg Bath Bomb to replace the broken one. I'm very impressed with their good customer service!

Overall I am extremely pleased with my purchases and my order (minus the one broken product). The delivery was fast, especially considering I ordered on a bank holiday. I'd definitely order online from Lush again!

What's your favourite Lush product?

I'll start off by saying, I've been meaning to do this post for some time now but I never got round to it, and now the 'Wild Cherry' scent is unavailable so I apologise. However, I then thought I'd do a post about the Strawberry scent shower gel but that appears to have gone missing! Although, I know that the things I'm going to say about this shower gel are also true for the Strawberry Shower Gel I have. 

I absolutely love this shower gel, it smells amazing and the smell lingers as well which I love. It lathers up nicely, and leaves me skin feeling soft. It's £4 for 250ml and I do think it's worth it so I'll definitely be trying other scents. There's also a smaller 60ml size which would be perfect for travelling for £2 or even just to try out! 

The next two I'm interested in trying are Mango and Coconut which look like they'd be lovely!

Have you tried any shower gels from The Body Shop?

Just a very quick post to say Sinful Colors Nail Polishes are now available in Boots and they are only £1.99! I've seen so many American bloggers and Youtubers talk about these and I never thought I'd be able to get some but now I can! Boots also still has the 3 for 2 offer on, so if you wanted to try some I'd recommend picking them up whilst they're on offer. I'm going to purchase some for myself soon!
