Recent Purchases #2 (Pic heavy)

So I've gradually been picking up little bits and pieces over the past few weeks so I thought I'd show you what I got!

This is when Body Shop had their sale on. I picked up this passion fruit scented body butter for a fiver! £5 is a bargain that I just couldn't leave there. Smells so gooooood. 
Tesco recently had a little sale on too! I have a Tesco Extra where I live so they basically stock everything! There's an eye primer which is from the company "Along Came Betty". I'd never heard of it before, have any of you? Also Tesco's own brand F&F have a makeup selection which I ended up picking up the Galaxy Glow highlighter and the All About Nails nail varnish which were marked down to only 19p each!!
Below are the shades Purple Rain and Emerald (L to R)



Everyone has been talking about the Maybelline Colour Show nail varnishes so I've finally got my hands on some after the great reviews.
I have Green With Envy, Tutti Fruity, Sugar Crystals (L to R)


I was naughty and bought another Baby Lips. This one is Cherry Me. Again, smells amazing!

So those were my recent purchases! Did you manage to find anything in the sales?
Let me know! :)

Beauty Bite: ELF's Eyelid Primer in 'Sheer'



 Now I've heard some wonderful things about this product so I just had to try it out! For someone like me who has oily eyelids and eyeshadow doesn't really like to stay very long, this is the kind of product I like! This Little tube of primer is a brilliant steal price at £1.50. You can't really leave something so great there for such an amazing and affordable price.
It comes with an easy brush/sponge applicator which is great for when you need to quickly do your make up. You only need a small amount of this product for it to work it's magic which is an even bigger bonus! It makes your eyeshadows appear brighter and more vibrant as well as making them last long. 
 You can buy this eyelid primer in 4 shades, so do not panic if the shade 'sheer' is not for you! You can also buy it in 'Champagne', 'Pearl' and 'Golden'. This product blends out beautifully and doesn't make your eyeshadow crease which is also a real problem for me with eyeshadows. It's also lightweight so doesn't feel heavy on your eyelids after a long day.
All in all, this is a budget friendly, eyelid loving primer (you'll probably love it too, not just your eyelids).
If you're in need of a primer or if you've never tried one before and wish to give it a go, this is definitely something to try!

Plus, ELF have a sale on right now...so go go go!
