Space NK Haul

-
When I received an email about a 75% off sale at Space NK I had to take a look.  They had some really nice stuff left and I ended up buying a few things.


First of all I bought 2 100ml bottles of Diptyque eau de toilette in Vetyverio. Each bottle cost a bargainous £17, reduced from £68.  Here's a discription - the fragrance opens with a radiant burst of Italian mandarin orange, Florida grapefruit, and Sicilian lemon and bergamot, giving the eau de toilette a fresh and fruity top. Sweet organic ylang ylang from Madagascar, sensuality-steeped Turkish rose absolute and slightly peppery geranium from Egypt add a distinctive touch and build towards the exquisite core of vetiver. 
Now I haven't tried this scent yet as I think I am going to save them both for presents for my sisters.  Like me they love buying perfume, but have never had a Diptyque fragrance.  That being said if I happen to visit a store that sells this perfume and I try it out and like it, then I may just keep one for myself, even though I must have about 20 unopened perfumes still to use.  Decisions, decisions!
I was also tempted by a Darphin travel set that cost £6.50.  Its the Hydration Expert Programme and contains Azahar Cleansing Micellar Water (50ml), Intensive Skin-hydrating Serum (5ml), All-day Skin Hydrating Cream Gel (15ml) and Anti-fatigue Smoothing Eye Gel (5ml).   I can't wait to try this set.
I bought 4 sets of Eco Sachets in various frangrances for £3.50 each. These little sachets will be great to put in drawers and cupboards to lightly fragrance my clothes.
Finally, in order to spend enough to receive free postage I bought a couple of Rococo Nail Polishes in Mysterioso Metallic and Glam Roc Molten Lava.  These were £4 a piece (they are now £3).  They both come in a lovely presentation box and are pretty metallic gold colours.
I also received a couple of sachets with my order for free, which is a nice touch.  They are Beautannia Brighton Body Cream & Bath & Shower Gel.
I addition, I received £5 worth of points on my Ndulge loyalty card.  Unfortunately, I totally forgot to go through Topcashback before I made the purchase, so I missed out on nearly £4 cashback on the purchase.
Overall I am really happy with my purchases and can't wait to use them all.
Did you buy anything in the Space NK sale?

Theres a poundshop haul coming up shortly.

Primark Vitamin Enriched Moisturising Primer Review - Bobbi Brown Dupe

**Reposted as the Primark Vitamin Enriched Moisturising Primer is  currently reduced to £2.50 from £4.50. I picked up the Primark Vitamin Enriched Moisturising Primer because it looked like it was a dupe for the Bobbi Brown Vitamin Enriched Face Base. The Primark version costs £4.50 for 45ml and the Bobbi Brown Face Base costs £48.50 for 50ml, so there is quite a price difference.   I had always wanted to try out the Bobbi Brown product, so when I received a mini version in a gift with purchase goody bag I was really excited to try it out, but I have to say I was somewhat underwhelmed.  I have quite dry skin and the face base did not have as much slip as I was expecting, so it didn't feel smooth when I applied my foundation. For the price I was expecting to love it way more than I did. It does have a lovely lemon smell which I really enjoy, where as the Primark version doesn't really have a fragrance.  Overall, I actually preferred the Primark version as it is thicker and it ma

I have wanted to get an LED Mask for ages but with prices for some of them at over £400 I just haven't been able to pull the trigger and buy one yet.

Aldi Lacura Vitabase Moisturising Primer Review - Bobbi Brown Dupe

-
Image
I managed to get my hands on the newly released Lacura Vitabase Moisturising Primer from Aldi which is supposed to be a dupe of the Bobbi Brown Vitamin Enriched Face Base. It costs £5.99 for 50ml whereas the Bobbi Brown product costs £48.50 for 50ml. That's a big difference especially at times like these when every penny counts. The big question - is it any good? I actually really enjoyed using this primer. I have dry skin and this thick creamy primer really suited my skin. It contains vitamin c, vitamin b, vitamin e, shea butter, sodium hyaluronate & geranium oil and I found it very hydrating on my skin and it provided a great base for my makeup. My makeup stayed on all day and didn't go patchy or dry. It also has a fresh grapefruit and geranium scent which is really refreshing, but don't worry its not an overpowering smell. If you have dry skin I really recommend this product. It looks like its only available in store, so be quick as I'm not sure how long it will
