Spring Shopping Part 2

I do love to shop till I drop and now that English Spring is here, I've got an excuse to satisfy my addiction. Sometimes I feel that even if I don't particularly need anything in the high street, I go around town anyway to have a look at new girly stuff.

So, after I've dropped my son at his school, I was off all morning shopping around for my Spring wardrobe.


My first stop was Boots where I intended to have a look what was on offer and spent more than I thought I was going to... Never mind, one of them was an absolute essential... and the cheapest one!

Second stop, Zara! I love Zara clothing because they are not into mass production and if you miss an item, you'll never see it again. I find it annoying when I go somewhere and find other girls wearing the same top as mine. Jeans are not too obvious but tops... they're right in your face!

This was my loot from Boots. I've got sensitive skin that I can't use ordinary facial tissues... It has got to have balm in it, so there's a couple boxes of my facial balm tissues, my favourite moisturizers, Olay Definity (1 bottle moisturizing foam, and 2 bottles serum), my Olay Definity gift, Dead Sea Source De-tox Seaweed Salt Scrub, Urban Decay Too Faced collection including, Duo-sided Blush Compact in Creme Brulee, Eye Shadow Dou in George & Weezie and Lip Injection Technicolor Lip Plumper in Techno Buff


This is one of my must have item as it helps keep my eyes fresh. I've been having dry eyes in years and an Ophthalmologist I worked with on one of my placements recommended this to me. I've been using this for over a year now and I just won't be able to live without this.

As you can see, I've got a stash of my moisturizers, Olay Definity! I love this stuff and I'd say the best one I've ever tried! I've spent £180 in the past on a 50ml of moisturizer (I can't name it as I might get done for slandering), but this one really topped it. They cost me £24.99 for a bottle (Serum and foaming moisturizer)... Foaming moisturizer lasts me 10 weeks but I use it at night only and serum during the day. Serum lasts me around 3 months so I guess, it's not too bad. This product definitely compliment my Susan Lucci Dermabrasion kit. Give it a try if you haven't done it yet.
