May Empties

I have finished a few products this month But would I buy them again?


Gucci Rush
This has been my favorite perfume since I was 16. This must be my 4th bottle! I am sad that it has finished but I have 3 perfumes waiting to be opened so I don't feel too bad! 
I think Alien is a close second to this.

YSL Baby Doll
I have had this for 2 years now and it has just run out. I used this as an every day perfume. I would wear it again but only if someone else bought it me. I wont be repurchasing again but I would recommend.

Umberto Giannini Morning After Dry Shampoo
I have been trying out a few different dry shampoos lately as I feel Batiste can be a bit heavy for my scalp. I bought a travel size of this and I love it! It smells the best out of all the dry shampoos I have tried and doesn't leave much of a white cast. I will be buying the full size of this and it is cheaper than Batiste.

Elemis Melting Cleansing Gel
I got this as a sample when I bought 2 products from the Elemis counter in Meadowhall at Christmas but have only just got round to trying it this week. I loved it that much I have already bought the full size. If anyone prefers cleansing washes or gels to creams then this is a must!

Ultrasun High 30SPF face
I have mentioned in a few blogs that I wear this every day as my moisturizer and SPF. It is amazing and I cannot rave about it enough. Can't even remember how many bottles of this I have used! They are bringing out a SPF50 of it which I have already ordered from QVC!

Sensodyne Pronamel Daily Toothpaste
Now if you read my blog a few weeks ago you would already know about the trauma I have had with my teeth! This product has really helped though. I used to have really sensitive teeth and have always used a sensitive toothpaste but this is by far the best. I have barely any sensitivity now and I do believe it has helped harden my enamel. They do a whitening version of this which I will be trying.

Any of these you have tried?

Mini TKmaxx Haul

Yesterday while in the middle of a nice shop around Meadowhall my zip decided to fly off my purse resulting in my money going everywhere! 
I don't have much luck with purses, they always seem to break despite me spending quite a considerable amount on them!
So while I was browsing around TKmaxx I found these little gems!


Ignore the Hello Kitty perfume for now!

I picked up the medium sized Jane Shilton green leather purse. It is perfect! I can deal with small purses but then I don't want my entire bag to consist of a giant purse. Hopefully this will take more wear than the last. Though I had had the other for 2 years so It did pretty well I guess. This Jane Shilton was RRP £59...I never know if anything has actually sold for it's RRP in TKmaxx but it makes me feel like I am getting a bargain at £16.99!
(Purse - RRP £59 - Bought for £16.99)

(Hello Kitty perfume RRP £35 - Bought for £12.99)

This was a very random purchase with no practical point to it at all! I already have 3 perfumes I am yet to open  so why did I buy another? BECAUSE IT'S HELLO KITTY OF COURSE!
I was more taken in by the packaging than anything. There were no testers but I thought for £12.99 I haven't lost a fortune if it smells horrid! 
It says it is 'Baby Perfume', not sure if this is the name or if you are actually supposed to spray it on a baby? It is alcohol free so maybe you are?! I wont be trying that one though, for a start I would have to find a willing mother to let me spray their child! 
The smell is pleasant but nothing special. I think this will be my new perfume to wear when I am not leaving the house! I must say...I thought the bottle would be more exciting too!

All in all I am happy with my purchases!
