Pay Day Treats! - June

Hello,
I've been meaning to post this blog for ages now. Its been delayed lots of times because of products that I just couldn't wait to share with you.
Most of the month I try to be quite good with money and not spend too much, but when payday comes around I love to treat myself to a few bits, and I think it feels extra special for being a bit of a monthly treat... that said though, I have bought myself a few other bits since taking the photos for this last week :P But here are my payday treats.
Ginvera BB Cream £16.00- This stuff is amazing. I got a tiny sample as an extra in June's She Said Beauty box and fell in love with it straight away and knew I'd have to buy a full sized bottle. This BB cream actually has foundation quality coverage as well as boasting all the extra benefits you get from a BB cream. I have a full review of this planned for one day this week so I won't go in to too much detail but basically I love it and everyone should own a tube.
River Island Owl Bracelet/Anklet £3- This little guy has wanted to come home with me for weeks so I headed straight to River Island when I was shopping. I really like the simple look of this bracelet but I did find that it is a little large on my wrists so I wear it as an anklet. Isn't the little buho so cute?
Topshop Cream Eyeshadow tubes £2 each- I saw these in the sale in Topshop and leapt on them in a way that perhaps a koala would some eucalyptus. I love the pigmentation of Topshop's cream shadows and these are no exception. The colours I picked up were Emerald City and Amethyst and let me tell you, Amethyst may well be my new favourite eye colour. I have a review coming up of these too so keep an eye out.
Pink New Look Studded Sandals £12.50(?)- I grabbed these when New Look had their 25% off sandals sale and can't quite remember how much they cost but I had to have them in my life. I was drawn in by the colour, the studs and the fact that they don't have a toe bar which I find can feel a little restricting with proper sandal style shoes after a while. These are really comfy because they have fairly padded soles so I'll be able to wear them all day on holiday with no problems and they also look cute with jeans here in England during our not so great summer.

So thats pretty much it. I also picked up a half price bra in Boux Avenue for £9 but who wants to see my over the shoulder boulder holders in all honesty so I thought I'd spare you that sight and since then I've bought 4 pout paints in a blog sale and a No 7 lipstick using one of the infamous £5 off vouchers but I'm back to being good for now, honest :)
What did you treat yourself to this pay day? Am I the only person already eyeing up next months treats?

    1. So far I'm loving the pout paints but I'll pop up a proper review and "how to" post within the next couple of weeks for you. They do take a while to get used to but the colour they give is definitely worth it! xx

    1. The BB cream is definitely one to look out for if you're wanting a good summer foundation because this gives a light to medium coverage that looks really fresh and pretty as well as having high SPF and lots of good-for-your-skin properties :) xx
