Studs and Flicks: soap and glory

Avaliable from Boots and Soap & Glory website. £13.00

As the weather was warming up, I thought it was time to try a new moisturiser. I was looking for something lighter than my winter moisturiser, but something that would still hydrate my dry/dehydrated skin. I came across this new moisturiser from Soap & Glory, and I thought that it would be perfect for my skin.

This look is inspired by this video from Pixiwoo. I wanted to create a brown grungy look as it went with my outfit and I wanted to try out some of my recent purchases. The brown complements my blue eyes and the nude lips work with the heavy eyes.

I did a little bit of shopping today, woops! So, let's get started and go through my new purchases!

Firstly, I went to Office and purchased a new pair of Converse. I wanted a new pair for the summer and this olive green colour will go with loads of things in my wardrobe. So excited to start styling these up! They were £44.99 but Office had a 15% discount on in-store, so I got them for £38.24.

I then went to Topshop and purchased three pairs of lace topped socks and a new cropped jumper. The socks were in the three for £8 deal and the jumper was in the sale for £18. However, I used my student discount card and got 10% off them.

The socks each have lace on the top. Black socks with black lace, white socks with white lace and olive socks with cream lace.

The jumper has really long sleeves and is cropped. The colour is a dark red/burgundy. I think my new converse are going to look really good with the jumper too. It's super soft and comfortable.

My Avon order arrived yesterday and I also went on a mini shopping spree for a new skincare product range, new laptop and other bits on Saturday.

From Avon, I ordered a limited edition case SuperSHOCK mascara (£5 normally £8.50) in black. I am a huge fan of this mascara and the new case is beautiful for summer. I am going to do a review in a later blog post since this is the 3rd time I have used this mascara. The other item I ordered was the Clearskin blackhead clearing daily astringent (£2 normally £4). This was recommended to me by a friend so I decided to try it whilst it was half price in the catalogue. I can't wait to try it with my other new skincare products.

On Saturday 20th April 2013, I also purchased a few goodies whilst I was in the city centre buying my new laptop (which I am currently typing on!). I firstly went into a poundshop. I purchased some random pieces for my 'moving to lincoln' collection, which I am not going to talk about, and a new set of exfoliating gloves. I love using these when I am in the bath/shower as the tops of my arms have a rash/ezcema on them, so these help to reduce the rash by buffing the dead skin away. I just loved the fact that one is spotty and one is plain so that you can differentiate between each hand.
