Pre-Holiday Haul

As the title of this blog suggests, I am going on holiday so I needed to stock up on a few travel size goodies as well as some other products that I'd either run out of or had been eyeing up for a while. I'm off to Cornwall with about 10 of my friends for an end of exams/chill out week. I'll probably do a 'what's in my travel makeup/washbag' type post as well as post what Lewis and I get up to (see my lifestyle blog).
Here's what I got:





 Aussie 3 Minute Miracle Conditioner, Cuticura Anti-Bacterial Hand Gel and Arm & Hammer Brilliant Sparkle Toothpaste. I don't want to have to lug full size toothpaste and conditioner on the train and tube and anti-bacterial hand gel is a must when I plan on eating fish and chips on the beach.



 Neutrogena Visbly Clear 2in1 Wash & Mask, Simple Kind To Eyes - Eye Makeup Remover and Simple Age Resisting Eye Cream (I already have one of these but as it was reduced to £5 I got a backup).
I just ran out of my Neutrogena face wash so I had to pick up another before my face freaked out! Do you want me to do empties posts? I know they've become quite popular as YouTube videos, but I don't use up that much in a month... maybe I'll do them bimonthly. I find it really hard to find an eye makeup remover that doesn't irritate my eyes and I love the Simple Kind To Eyes Eye Makeup Remover Cream so I thought I'd give this a go. 





 Sally Hansen Maximum Growth Daily Nail Treatment, Superdrug Nail Polish Remover - Acetone Free, Elnett Hairspray  - Extra Strength & Nutri Protection. My nails are just a disaster, so as a last ditch attempt to give them some strength before my Leavers Ball tomorrow (super busy next few days) I am hoping this nail treatment works wonders overnight! You can never have too much nail polish remover, I don't bother with branded ones, to me they're all the same. The only hairspray that was in my house went walkies, I didn't really like the way it made my hair go crispy and it didn't really hold my hair. I preferred Elnett when Penelope Cruz was the face of it, can't stand Cheryl what's her face at all. However I saw that they did a variation for damaged hair that has 'nutrients' so I figured it can't be bad and with the extra strength hopefully it will hold my fine hair in a curl tomorrow. We'll see. 





Swatch of the NYC Kohl pencil (you can just about see it in the top picture) in the shade 925 Sable. At just under £2, hidden away in a box on a discount shelf I thought to myself, I'm nearly out of my Rimmel Kohl Eyeliner in the shade 011 Sable Brown so I picked this up, it will last me forever! Its one of the longest eyeliner pencils that I've ever seen!

Hopefully I'll get some good pictures in Cornwall as well as at my Leavers Ball, I may show you what makeup I wear if I remember to take a picture after each step. I can't decide if I want to start my own beauty channel on YouTube or not, my voice always sounds weird when its recorded.
