New Look, Next, Boots, Lush and More Haul!

Hello Lovelies!

How has everyone been? Firstly, HAPPY EASTER! I hope you're all getting ready to tuck into your Easter eggs and regret it afterwards! Yay! Hahaha.

So, if you follow me on twitter (@theycallmeezza), you may know that on Friday I went on a little shopping trip and got a few things, which I for one am very very happy with! And I just wanted to show you all and tell you what I think of them.

In the UK, we have two clothing stores which are called Next and New Look (you might have them in your country and adore them as much as we do) and I love their latest clothing and accessories!


First of all from Next, I brought this blue top with white dots, which you put over a vest top and I love how it's so summery and how you can wear it in the day time and in the evenings. 


From New Look, I brought a grey blazer that the material of it is actually like a cardigan and I love that! I think it's great for spring and summer evenings when going out to somewhere nice! Also, it's just generally nice for special occasions. 


Going back to Next, I then brought this mint colour button up blouse with little birds on it and I thought it was so cute! With this, you also put a vest top underneath. As again, this is brilliant for the spring and summer seasons!


Back to New Look, I brought this long gold necklace which has little beady bits and a feather hanging off the end, I been needing something like this for ages now and I never really found one that I liked, thank goodness I found this!


Lastly, I brought this burgundy bag from New Look and can we all just have a second of silence and take a look at this bag....IT IS THE LOVE OF MY LIFE! I am in officially in love with this bag, it's so perfect for me as I tend to put quite a few things into my bag. It's just paradise. 

Now on to Boots! I love Boots. I think every girl in the UK loves Boots. It has everything that a girl will ever need! 


If you know me, you'd probably know that I stress out... a lot. And this tends to give me spots! Oh huzzah. So, I saw this little beauty and I thought I will give it a spin. I hope this will help my skin and me to relax and chill for a while.


Now, this is one of the prettiest nail vanishes that I've ever seen! The colour of this is called Pistachio Drage by L'Oreal, which comes out like a minty kind of colour, and I can't stop bragging on how much I adore this! As you can see in the picture, I do have it on my nails at the moment and I can't seem to stop staring at them...Oh dear. 

Lush. Oh Lush. Sweet Lush. Oh how I love the smell of Lush! I must of been in this shop for about half an hour just smelling all of their products! 



I've heard about this lip scrub for a while now and I've been wanting to try it out. The smell of this is so so strong! And every time I smell it, I just want to eat it... But you can! This lip scrub is actually made out of sugar and is edible but I wouldn't advise you to eat the whole pot for health and safety reasons, haha. Moving swiftly on before I get sued...

Now, for a little special treat... I went to Debenhams as well on Friday but I also been going throughout the week too and I picked up a couple of samples of products that I've been dying to try. 


The first sample that I picked up was the Clarins Face Treatment Oil in Lotus. Lately, I have had quite oily skin ,because of the weather changing, and it been especially at night! I had tried moisturizers but they're just not helping! So, I had a little chat to the Clarins lady about it and she recommended this and it has been so wonderful to my skin! I feel so refreshed and not so oily in the morning! I will be going back to buy the full product, believe me!


The second and last sample that I picked up was the Lancome Teint Idole Ultra in 01 and I love this so much that I don't seem to have much more of the sample (sad face) but I found this product incredible! It felt so light on my face and the coverage was very good especially as I'm always running around getting errands done, I only needed to powder once! Once! 



Then, when I went shopping Friday, I brought this glamorous product from Benefits! I was so excited to finally buy something fro Benefits as I've never brought anything from them before. So, this my lovelies is the Big Easy BB Cream and this is very very good! The SPF is 35 which we all know is pretty damn good! It also helps control moisture and oiliness on the face which is good for the summer and warm days. Overall, this product is brilliant indeed!




With the BB Cream, I got a free Fake Up concealer which is also from Benefits. I'm still debating with myself about this product. It is meant to cover up the dark circles under the eyes and diffuse fine lines but I'm just not seeing it yet. I don't know if I'm not using it right or if I'm just too young to use it. Hmm, let me get back to you all about this.

So, overall I had a very successful shopping trip and I very much enjoyed it! I hope you all have a lovely weekend and Easter!

See You Soon!

Toodles!

Unboxing the Maybelline NY Limited Edition Fashion Look Box

Hi Lovelies!

How have we all been?! I do need to say sorry for not posting lately, I've been (once again) very busy with school and work but I'm here now to give you a review on a lovely parcel that I got the other day!

A few weeks ago, I ordered the Maybelline NY Limited Edition Fashion Look Box , which I brought from the trustworthy Boots. Can I just mention how lovely the products and this box is! Well, let me show you!


This is what the box looks like. I love the box especially with the Maybelline slogan on it! The colours on the box are pretty much gorgeous to me. Basic but gorgeous.


When I opened the box, I saw a little leaflet which told me what was inside the box and about the products. I found it quite adorable!


After you unfold the pieces of tissue paper, you come to the lovely products! I was fangirling at this moment. They all look so amazing!


The first product I picked up and tried was the Maybelline Mega Plush Mascara in Very Black. THIS IS AWESOME! The volume it gives you on your eyelashes is amazingly good! This is by far one of my mascaras.


Next, I looked at the Maybelline Brow Drama Sculpting Brow Mascara in Medium Brown and this is amazing! It gives your eyebrows that fuller look and makes them shaped which I was in desperate need of!


This product is something that I've wanted to try for a while now to be honest with you all. This is the Maybelline Baby Lips and this is the Hydrate. This is so good! It's not actually a lip balm, it's a moisturizing balm which stays on for 8 hours! That's pretty impressive if you ask me. 


This is another product that I've heard a lot about. This is the Maybelline Dream Touch Blush in Berry. The colour of this is so beautiful and perfect for spring and summer, especially for nights out and girly days out. 



The last product is the Maybelline Colour Show Nail Lacquer in Nebline. This is also a beautiful colour and perfect for spring! It's a pastel pink and if you like girly light pink nail vanishes, then this is perfect for you!

I am in love with this little box! I find so inspiration for any spring/summer make up looks! I personally think you should all try them too! 

Till next time!

You're Beautiful and Thanks for Reading!

How has your day been today? Or if your day hasn't started yet, have a great day! Today, I will be telling you my wishlist for this month and it will be specifically for skin care as I am in need for new skin products as I am running out. I would love it if you told me your opinion on these products if you do own them and what you rate them!

THE SKIN PRODUCTS:


I've heard good things about this exfoliator! To be honest, this is the first time I've wanted to use something from this brand, so it will be interesting to see how this turns out.


Lately, I've been having a few spots breaking out and I always seem to go back to this brand because it makes my skin really good! But, I haven't tried this certain product before so this will be interesting as well!


I've been wanting this product for a while now and I've had so many positive recommendations of this and been told that it is awesome!


This is another product that I've been wanting try for a while too! This looks amazing and the reviews of this have been so good so far! 


I am so excited to be able to try all of these products! They all look very professional and will hopefully work like wonders on my skin. I will keep you all updated of when I've brought these products and I will give you my honest opinion on them. 

Until next time. I post every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. You're Beautiful and Thanks for Reading!

My Online Makeup and Little Bits Haul!

Hi Everyone!

How are we all? How's everyone's week been? Well! If you follow me on Twitter or Instagram, you would know that I got a few packages this week! I love getting packages, I just think they are so cute! Anyway, getting back to the subject, a week ago, I ordered a few things such as make up and little bits and bobs which I thought were adorable and today I am here to give you my review of them! So, this is practically like a haul video but in blog form.

The first thing I received this week was my make up! I've been wanting to try new make up for ages but have never really gotten around to doing it. I brought all of my make up from Superdrug, which is a drugstore in the United Kingdom, I will link there website at the bottom.

Firstly, I got the MUA eye shadow palette, this palette is called Heaven and Earth and oh my goodness, the colours of this are incredibly natural! So perfect for me as I'm more into natural colours and colours that don't stand out, so this palette is one of my favorites that I have ever used! Also, the price of this is amazing as the quality of this is really good especially if you're a person like me who can get quite a nasty reaction to certain cheaper make up. So, I really recommend this so much! I give, MUA, a rating of 9 out of 10!


Next purchase was the GOSH foundation primer classic clear, this is the first time ever that I have used a foundation primer and I must say, I quite enjoy it! It has a velvet feel too it, so it makes your skin feel soft and smooth. The only downside to this is that it does give me a bit of dry skin but I think it's only because I just started using it and need to get use to it. This was a bit more on the expensive side, in my case, but it is good for beginners to make up. I give, GOSH, a rating of 7 out of 10!


I then got the 2True Colour Blusher Shade 1 and I really like it! It's not too pink and heavy, it's comes out as quite a light pinky colour that just gives your make up a final touch. I've been needing a new blusher for a while as mine just ran out, so I am so happy that I got this and it is quite cheap but it's a good piece of make up! I, personally, think that this would suit anyone!



I also got another piece of make up from 2True, this is the 3 in 1 concealer in medium and this is amazing! I really like this as it suits my skin tone and it isn't too creamy for my face or too oily like some concealers. I only put a dab of it under my eyes, eyebrows and a few pimples and it makes the face look so natural! I give, 2True, a rating of 8 out of 10!





On my last piece of my make up purchase, I brought a eye liner. This eyeliner is the Collection 2000 Extreme 24hr felt tip and it is so lovely! I mean, this literally stays on all day! Also, if you're not a big fan of deep black eyeliner, this is perfect as it is black but it's not too black, if you get what I mean. This is great for an everyday make up piece and even for an all nighter on the town. I give, Collection 2000, a rating of 8 out of 10!


So! That's the end of my first package. Now on to the second package!

A couple of weeks ago, I wanted to buy a candle but didn't know what specific one to buy. So, I asked around and most people recommended to buy a Yankee Candle. I've heard of them so many times but never thought of actually getting one until now. I looked around the website and saw a few that I liked but I only wanted a sample just so I could try it out. So, I chose the Bahama Breeze and can I just say that I think it smells DEVINE! I am in love with the smell of this candle, it smells of citrus fruits which I completely love! I can't get over the smell. Yes, I'm gonna say it. I can't even.

The last package I got was from Amazon and I've been saving for these items the most!

The first item is the Q&A 5 Year Journal. This little book is so so cute! It has a little question each day and, what you may be able to tell by the title of this book, you do it for 5 years, this lets you look back at what you wrote the year before. Which I think is super adorable! The person who recommended it was actually BubzBeauty. If you don't know who she is, I will link her website and YouTube below. But, she is a beauty guru and is my inspiration for beauty! She is so relatable and so open with her readers and viewers, so big shout-out to you Lindi! Oh and Domo, Tim and Chubbi. Hehe.

The last and final item that I got was my make up brushes! Ah! I've been wanting and needing new make up brushes for absolute ages! And now, I finally have some! So, the make up brushes that I got was the Vanz 32 piece cosmetic set. I've never heard of this brand before but I was so in need of new brushes that I went for any kind. Of course, I read the reviews first and most of them send positive things, so I thought to give them a try and, oh my god, I loove them! They are so lovely and they don't give me any rashes as some brushes do. They are so incredibly soft and so professional!


I must say, I am very very proud of my self for these purchases as I will use them so well and wisely! And I hope you've enjoyed this little blog haul, please comment below if you did and tell me if you want anymore because I would love to know!

Anyway, it's that time again where we say goodbye to this post but I will be back soon and I hope you will be too! You're beautiful and I'll see you soon! Bye!
