Shopping My Stash #5


I think this post should have been up last Sunday but my computer was in the middle of a meltdown so I carried on using the same products from the last Shopping My Stash post. For this fortnight I've picked out 5 products. Some are new to me, some I love and one I loathe.

Benefit BrowZings in 'dark': BrowZings was my favourite brow product for a long, long time. It contains everything your brows need in one compact: wax, powder, 2 brushes, mirror and mini tweezers but recently the Liz Earle Brow Pencil in 'Fair' knocked it off the top spot. My problem is when I find a product I adore I completely forget about other great products and let them go to waste so this fortnight I'll only be using this bad boy on my brows.

Soleil Tan De Chanel: I don't think anyone understands how angry this product makes me. I just don't get it. I don't get the hype and I don't get how one shade supposedly suits everyone. Sometimes it isn't noticeable at all on my skin and other times I end up looking like a clown. I really want to love Soleil Tan De Chanel so this fortnight I'll be trying my hardest to turn hate into love. I always say this but if any of you have any tips on how to make this work then please let me know in the comments.

Armani Code: One of my all time favourite fragrances. Armani Code is instantly recognisable, comforting and the perfect winter scent. This bottle has lasted me an absolute age due to not needing to top up throughout the day. If you spray it on a scarf then wear it weeks later the scent will still be there.

Lanolips Lip Ointment With Colour & SPF 15 in shade 'Rhubarb'*: If you suffer from dry, cracked lips during the Winter months, get yourself a tube of Lanolips! 'Rhubarb' adds a lovely red/pink blush to your lips and makes them feel comfortable from the first use. I don't think I could ever be without Lanolips now.

Dove Colour Radiance Express Treatment Conditioner: I ended up with 4 of these when buying Marie Claire for the L'Occitane Hand Cream Freebies. I recently added more highlights to the midlengths-ends of my hair so have been opting for treatments with every wash over regular conditioner. I really hope it works well for me as it's alot cheaper than some of the treatments I've fallen for lately.

PS - Is everyone excited for I'm A Celeb tonight?!

  2. I'm tempted to buy the Chanel tan de soleil because i have heard so much rave about it but also alot of people who doesn't get on that well with it. I stay by my trusted NARS laguna bronzer or my benefit Hooler :) I may need to start doing shopping my stash posts soon because theres so many products that i hardly get any use out of and i want to finish some before purchasing new ones :P Thanks for sharing xxx

    1. I haven't tried Laguna but I've only ever read good reviews on it. I would say stick with it and forget about Soleil Tan De Chanel. lol

      You should start shopping the stash posts. I love seeing what products people are using. :)
