Beauty and Fashion Haul - November







I've been shopping a couple of times in the past few weeks and picked up some new beauty products as well as some fashion pieces, so I decided I would share them with you today and give little reviews on the products I have tried.

The first item I bought was the Maybelline Fit Me concealer because I had heard brilliant reviews on it all over blogs and YouTube! I got the shade '10', and it suits my skin colour quite well. I always find it so difficult to match concealer shades in store as you can never tell if the colour is right because of the yellow lighting. But anyway it works very well at covering dark circles; I find it doesn't crease like the Collection Lasting Perfection concealer does on me. The formula isn't too heavy, although it has good coverage. Overall I am very pleased and for £6 I think it is great.

My skin has been playing up recently, I'm not too sure why but I was getting pretty annoyed. I read some reviews on The Body Shop Tea Tree range and so many people said the products worked wonders on their skin! I went in store and found a set for £13 including the tea tree foam cleanser, toner and clearing lotion. I have been using these items for just over a week now, and I am really enjoying using them. The tea tree scent is so refreshing especially good in the morning to wake you up! I may do an updated skincare routine soon, when I have tried out the items for longer.

The last couple of things are some fashion pieces. I was looking around the sale section in Topshop expecting not to find anything in my size and then I spotted a pair of Mom Shorts reduced to £10 from £30. I kind of had to buy them, even though we are now getting into the colder months of the year... I figured I could pair them with a nice woolly jumper along with some tights and boots. Let me know if you'd like me to write a winter style post, or how I style jumpers. I have also been needing a new bag, not too big, not too small, to go shopping with or just out and about. I found this lovely burgundy/wine red coloured bag from Primark for £5, it is the perfect size and the colour fits in with the Autumn season well.
