I'm not a proper adult, I don't have many bills to pay or much hanging over my head so as soon as I get paid I just spend it all on myself on anything and everything that I want. It's an exciting time after working all month really. So of course just like last month, the day I got paid I was out spending,
and who doesn't love a good oul' haul post ; )
Lets start with the "main" gift I bought myself this month. I have been after a pair of Beats headphones since November of last year and just never really got around to buying myself a pair. But finally a pair of Limited Edition Rose Golden Beats were released and I just knew I had to have them. I'm so happy I bought them because I am obsessed with them, the sound quality is amazing and just look at how pretty they are! I bought them in the Airport so they were a little cheaper than buying them from the Apple website but they are definitely worth every penny!

I stocked up on my No7 foundation and also picked up a lipstick in the shade 'Caramel Silk" which is a gorgeous warm nude colour. I'm still surprised at how much I love this foundation, it gives a good coverage and doesn't cake. I've wrote all about my thoughts on it along with other No7 products in my "Why I Changed My Mind About No7 Cosmetics" post. When I purchased both products I ended up also getting a free gift as there was a promotional offer on, see what was inside in my "No7 Set For Sunshine Free Gift With Purchase" post!
Not needing another brow product but after seeing this Freedom Makeup Duo Brow Powder I just had to have it, plus it was quite the bargain. I picked up mine in the shade Medium Brown and I love it. Both shades are true to their colour and don't have any red undertones to them. Its quickly becoming my new favourite brow product and I'm already thinking of purchasing the palette of them all.
After reading a few reviews and having them recommended to me I picked up two of the Body Fantasies body sprays and I am so in love with them. I picked up the scents Twilight Mist and Japanese Cherry Blossom and both are such lovely Summer scents. While in work I much prefer to use body mists and sprays as I always worry about carrying a good bottle of perfume with me and letting it smash, so body sprays/mists are the way to go for me.I wanted to include a photo of it in my hand to show how small it actually is as when I was ordering it I was expecting it to be almost like the size of the Victorias Secret sprays. However for the price they are well worth it and it claims theres up to 500 sprays in each bottle!
Recently I've been kind of in love with false lashes again, I think once Summer comes in I just love fluttery lashes and think they add that extra something to your eye makeup. I had been looking at these Fleur De Force x Eylure lashes all month and decided to pick them up. They're only 3/4 length lashes which I really like as they'll add that fluttery lash look I love but still look natural. Also I'm loving how thin the band is on these lashes, it's practically invisable which makes them super easy to blend to your natural lash line.
I have a bit of an obsession with skincare so I stocked up a little on a few bits. This time round I seemed to have been going crazy for eye makeup removers. My eyes are mega sensitive so I don't like anything oily on my eyes or that feels too harsh. I picked up the Simple Kind To Eyes Eye Makeup Remover Cream to give it a try. I have tried Simple products before and really liked them so I'm hoping I'll love this one too!
I also picked up the No7 Beautiful Skin Oil Free Eye Makeup Remover to give it a try and so far this is the only one I've been using since purchasing it and its fab! It removes even waterproof makeup and is so gentle on my eyes. They also have an oil version of this one if you like ones with oil but of course I had to go oil free! I'm so glad I picked this one up because I am really loving it right now.
I also picked up 2 packets of the Yes To Facial Wipes. I'm not really a fan of wipes but these are amazing. They are soaked in product so much so that I can remove every speck of makeup from my face with one wipe and there will be still product left on the wipe to use! I am so in love with these and while the large packets of them are a little expensive they are well worth the money. This time however I thought I'd just pick up the travel sized packs, one in the Cucumber scent which I had tried before and loved and the other in the Blueberry scent which I am so in love with right now.
Everyone has the Boots app on their phone right!? Well after loading my offers onto my card one offer was I'd get €1 worth of points if I picked up something from the Boots Essentials range. So I picked up the Boots Essentials Cucumber Eye Makeup Remover Pads. They also worked out as free as skincare was 3 for 2 so I couldn't not pick up something. I'm all about those points! I have yet to try these out but I'm sure I'll let you know how I get on.
While ordering from Superdrug I decided to pop the Lottie London Solid Brush Cleanser into my basket to give it a try. I'm all about anything that might make cleaning my brushes not so tedious. I've already been using this the past 3 weeks and have a review post that went up earlier in the week, find it here!
Back to skincare I also picked up a bottle of my trusty Simple Kind To Eyes Eye Makeup Remover. I absolutely adore this stuff, it's like a micellar water but just for your eyes. I've used this since I discovered it last year and never allow myself to run out of it because it's just that good.
The No7 box was a free gift with a purchase of any two No7 Cosmetics, so of course I had to pick up two things so I could get the free gift. You can find out whats inside in my No7 Set For Sunshine Free Gift With Purchase post!
The Makeup Eraser was actually a gift from work, so I didn't actually buy it but thought I'd still include it in the haul! I haven't heard much about this product but basically its one of those thats supposed to remove your makeup with just water. I don't tend to like these kind of things as my skin never feels right after using them but I will give this a go. I'm sure I'll let you know how I get on after a few uses! I will say it's the softest thing I've ever felt, it's like a baby blanket!
I picked up my trusty Smashbox Photo Finish Primer in a double pack so it'd last me that little longer, plus it was a great price! This is my holy grail primer and it literally keeps my makeup looking fresh all day long, I just absolutely adore this stuff. I had let myself run out of it for over a month and no primer I was using was doing it's job the way the Smashbox one does so the double pack was to make sure I don't run out of it anytime soon!
While at the Smashbox counter I enquired about the Photo Finish Primer Water and it sounded and felt amazing so I decided to treat myself to it. THIS STUFF IS MAGICAL. I will have a blog post going up soon all about this but I am so in love with it, we'll leave it at that.
Another gift from work was the Nip + Fab Viper Venom Serum. I have only ever tried out the Nip + Fab Dragons Blood Pads and wasn't impressed with them (see review here) so I am excited to see if I like this product. It feels so luxurious and lovely on the skin but I have yet to start properly using it.
After Zoella releasing her new range and informing us that her tutti fruity range will be slowly disappearing, I wasn't sure if that meant the cosmetic bags that came out at that time aswell so just to be save I picked up the Zoella "Favourite Things" Cosmetic Bag because you know I totally needed another makeup bag...I really didn't but I had my eye on this for quite awhile so I had to get it. Plus if it was gone I'd be so gutted I missed out on it.
I picked up two packets of the No7 Beautiful Skin Quick Thinking Wipes just to have for when I'm taking blog photos and swatch things on my arms/hands. I'm not really a fan of these for removing my makeup as I find they are quite dry and theres barely any product in the wipes. However they're fine for cleaning swatches off my skin etc plus the discount is way too good to not buy them just to have.
While in my local pharmacy looking at their clearance stand I came across the Sleek Snapshots Palette reduced to just €4 so I had to grab it. How gorgeous are the colours included in it, this is definitely going to be one of my summer go to palettes for sure. I'm so in love with the shades and cannot wait to experiment with them all.
I also bought a Batiste Dry Shampoo because that stuff is a life saver for second day hair!

I also treated myself to a few items from the Disney Store, you can find that haul post here if you'd like.
And finally thats everything I bought myself. I probably didn't need most of it, but if you can't treat yourself on payday when can you!?
Did you treat yourself to anything on payday?
