So, I was a little naughty last week on the shopping front. You know how you just get those weeks when you have nothing better to do and before you know it, you've got like five order confirmation emails in your inbox? Well, this was me last week. A few clicks later and I had made a serious dent in the bank account. Unluckily for me, it's a joint account, so I have some explaining to do to my other half...whoopsies! We all need some retail therapy sometimes, no?
I did put some teaser photos on Instagram, so you may already know about the above purchases! But I've managed to keep the actual contents a secret until they all arrived so I could unveil them in this post. Now, I'm not going to go through everything in the boxes, I'll just give you a sneak peak of everything and some of my favourite things. If you have any questions about anything I've bought, just comment below. Let's start with a glance at what's inside...
Look at all these shiny beauty products! I'm so excited to actually try them all! I'm gonna start with the Birchbox. I've finally popped my Birchbox cherry. I've wanted to subscribe to this for absolute ages, so when I go an email offering me free shipping, I finally bit the bullet and let me tell you, I wasn't disappointed. For those of you who haven't heard of Birchbox, you complete a beauty questionnaire online and they send you samples/full size items every month tailored to your preferences. These are great if you want to test something before splashing out on the full size product. I also love the packaging this month, they've collaborated with Harper's Bazaar (you also get a discount on a HB magazine subscription). If I remember right, it only costs about £10 a month to subscibe and you can cancel at anytime. Judging from the contents of this month's, though, I won't be cancelling anytime soon! Below are my favourites from the Harper's Bazaar Birchbox.
Which lovely things have you been buying lately?
