Spending too much time in Boots | Haul

All the Boots close by me are crap and barely stock anything interesting but there's a few big ones that I like to travel to as a treat. Nothing better than a Sunday afternoon strolling around Boots looking through all the isles, testing things and picking up products from brands I haven't tried!
 
 



Real techniques Stippling Brush: £11.99, Avene Eau Thermal (mini size): £3.15, Aussie Heat Protectant: £4.69, Sugar Crush Body Wash £6.50
 
I am a huge fan of sweet smelling products and once I heard Zoella raving about the Sugar Crush products, I went out smelt them and fell in love! Good enough to eat!
 
Bought the Avene spray as I've not tried any of these (basically a skin refresher, spray on cleansed skin or if you've overpowdered for a more natural less cakey finish) or even anything from the brand Avene and after spending a bomb in Origins I do not need any more skincare yet. I was also looking for something to spritz on my beauty blender before I apply my foundation and I'm hoping this will work well for that too.



Stila lip and cheek cream Gladiola: £16, Nivea lip butter Caramel Cream: £2.25 (No Filter)
 
Hands down the best lip balm ever, purely for how it smells, AMAZING!
Bought this Stila product when I seen Essiebutton raving about it also, I have high hopes, I love corals!

Flake Away & Sparkling Lemon Verbena | My Body Loves!

My body loves these. I also love these a lot.
 

Sparkling Lemon Verbena Body Cream (£3 from Marks & Spencer)
Soap & Glory Flake Away Body Polish (£8 from Boots)
 



I know this product has been doing it's rounds on the blogsphere at the moment but there is really a reason for it. I use it about one to two times a week depending on how much fake tan I'm using or how much pampering I'm in the mood for. The scrub is oil based so it's really moisturising and I haven't had any problems putting tan on a couple of hours after using it. I've also noticed a really lovely improvement to my tan after this, much more natural looking and no streaks! Also I think it's really good value for money, a little goes a long way.



 
I was so shocked at the price of this body cream, I am seriously going back to buy more, there's a coconut one that I had my eye on too. But if you love lemon cheesecake you will love this. It's gorgeous and silky, absorbs in really quickly which is perfect for everyday. But really the smell is just amazing, I really do think it rivals a lot of high end creams. But this is definitely not like the body shops' butters which is what I initially thought but more like a souffle cream texture, equally as nice.
