Hey Girlies!
I think today it's time to do my favourite monthly feature, lust haves and must haves, where I go in search of more purse friendly alternatives to the loved and luxurious favourites. So let's see what you can save money on this week...
Lust Have- Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick £32
Must Have- 17 Shimmer Brick £4.99
Lust Have- River Island Spiked Ear Cuff £10
Must Have- New Look Spiked Ear Cuff £3.99
Lust Have- Caudalie Beauty Elixir £24
Must Have- Botanics Rosewater Toning Spritz £4.99
Have you tried any of these products or have any other good dupes to recommend?
I've just been having quite a chilled out time this week with my boyfriend which has been nice, but I have a busy time again from tomorrow starting with a weekend in Portsmouth to see my big sister so today I made sure I did lots of blog stuff and worked out quite a bit. My boyfriend has just bought us a gym rope to work out with so I spent quite a bit of time skipping round the garden looking like a right numpty! I honestly don't know what the neighbours think of me sometimes...right, I best go and get ready now as I'm off to the cinema tonight to see Magic Mike for the second time, clearly the 2 hours I spent last Monday watching Mr Tatum and Pettyfer strip wasn't enough!
Have a great night everyone!
Love Meg

Ive not tried any of these but ive been after the Caudalie spray for agesss but couldnt justify the price tag - so ill definately be giving the botanics version a go :) Love these posts - thanks meg :)) xx
ReplyDeleteQuite alright lovely, I've been looking for an alternative to the Caudalie for ages too! xxx
DeleteFirst time reading your blog- what a great idea for a post. I love the sound of the Bobbi Brown shimmer brick but it is quite expensive so will be trying the 17 one - thanks! I have the Caudalie beauty elixir but only the little one do I could try it and like it so far but would be an expensive habit to keep up!

Deletelove this feature on your blog :) definately going to pick up the botanics, been wanting the caudalie for ages xx
ReplyDeletethanks sweetie :) yes do, let me know what you think of it! xxx
DeleteHi lovely, thanks for visiting my blog :)
ReplyDeleteThis is such a great idea for a feature. I'm often happy to go for cheaper alternatives on things like eyeshadows, whereas I will pay a bit more for things like foundations and tinted moisturiser, as you often get what you pay for those. Thanks for recommending the Maybelline BB, I've ordered a sample so will see what I think and probably post about it :)
Hope all is well.

no problem, I really liked it! hope you like the BB cream :) xxx
DeleteLove these posts! Some good finds here! I'm tempted to get the botanics spray! xoxo
ReplyDeleteThanks love! and why not! xxx
DeleteI have the 17 bronze block and I love it!! I never knew it was a dupe for something Bobbi Brown came out with, have you tried both, if so which do you think is better?:)x
ReplyDeleteI love mine too, but I haven't tried the Bobbi Brown one, I don't feel that I need to because of how happy I am with the 17 one! xxx
DeleteLove the ear cuffs! Strangely I prefer the New Look one I think! xx
ReplyDeleteYes I think I do too, got to love a bargain! xxx
