ORLY Mani Mini Lacquer Trio


cool romance - rrp £13.00

The other day I was doing a spot of shopping a decided on a little trip to TK Maxx! Now I picked up loads of things but had also bought a few bits and pieces from boots so didn't want to go overboard! 
I saw these and couldn't believe it because I really like Orly nail polishes but these colours are seriously perfect for me! 

Orly nail polishes are of a really high quality! The packaging of the bottles is really sleek and easy to hold. I love how just one coat is enough but I normally use two coats anyway. The swatches are just one coat! The finish is shiny but not really shiny which is nice for a cute subtle colour. They also dry super quick so you don't have to worry about smudging them. I got these for £6 they were in the clearance section ! £6 thats amazing :) 

I am defiantly going to keep my eyes open for more orly polishes in TK Maxx- I've seen loads of people buying cheap models own and OPI polishes from there too have you guys been into TK Maxx recently? Keep checking the blog to see what else I bought at TK Maxx.

zara vs missguided


I love finding finds like this bag from Missguided which is SO SIMILAR to the zara bucket bag! I do love the Zara one but I think £40 is abit overpriced! I know the Zara one is probably a better quality but the Missguided version is a really cute dupe and its a lighter colour - I actually think the Zara bag it abit too TAN/ORANGE for me personally. 

What do you think ? I've also seen amazing versions on ebay if you wanna buy a more identical version.

REVIEW: Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish Hot Cloth Cleanser



Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish Hot Cloth Cleanser 100ml Starter Kit £14.25*

I was so glad to try this cleanser because literally theres so many great reviews by other bloggers and I really wanted to see what all the hype was about. I bought the No 7 Hot cloth cleanser when the No 7 Vouchers were about (see review here) I bought that as an alternative because it was cheaper so I jumped at the chance to try the Liz Earle one. 

I love the little bag that the Starter Kit comes in! Its really cute and handy and would be lovely if you going away and wanted to bring this with you. The packaging for Liz Earle products are really nice and simplistic and I love the matte feel. I also like that this product has a pump, I like using products like cleansers that have pumps because it just keeps them cleaner.

The smell is really nice too - I noticed with the No 7 version there wasn't really a smell but with the Liz Earle Hot Cloth Cleanser you can smell the oils, camomile and theres a hint of tea tree in the smell. You apply the product to dry skin and it rubs in really nice and then I like to relax by soaking the muslin cloth, rinsing it and placing it over your face for that spa like feeling. Then you use the cloth to remove the product and wet your face with cold water and dab your face dry with a towel. 

Afterwards my face felt really soft and smooth. I think it is rather expensive but products like this last along time and I really didn't use alot of product and could see this 100ml bottle lasting for ages. 
I would really recommend it and I really can't wait to try out some more Liz Earle products

I'm a bargain hunter

I've always been one to spot a bargain so I thought i'd give you some tips to saving your money. There are loads of discount codes out there you just have to find them. I always see people paying full price for things when they don't have to !

1// When your shopping always have a look around before buying something from a more expensive shop- Shops like Internacionale, Quiz, Miss Guided and Boohoo always have really good copys of clothes like jumpers and t-shirts from more expensive stores like Topshop and River Island, Its worth a look around because if your like me and only wear things a few times its worth saving some money!

2// Student Events - Shopping centres always have Student events so its worth having a look online and seeing when and where these are held- On thursday the Bullring in Birmingham is holding a student event and shops like Topshop and River Island are giving out 20% student discounts, You can save loads of money!

3// NUS card- I have an NUS card and use it all the time. I have a student card too but you need to have an NUS card when your shopping online. Also my student card doesn't have an expiry date so I'm always using my NUS card and places like Pizza Hut do 20% off for NUS card Holders. Look on the NUS website for more discounts and its only £12.

4// Look on blogs for discounts, you can get 20% off motel rocks by entering 'amydtm' to the promo code box. Clothing websites always work alongside bloggers and they give extra discounts for blog readers

5// Join websites like Vouchercloud and Studentbeans for brand new and exclusive discounts.
