Hello!
Last week it was my Nan and Granddad's 50th Anniversary, so we went up to see them and gave them a chocolate cake (waitrose special... nothing fancy) and my mum also made them a cross stitch picture, as they love those kind of things!
Here they are just after eating their cake and posing with their new picture and balloons!
And here is the cake. My mum and I added the decorations before we took it up

Next i wanted to go and check out the Benefit stand in the new Debenhams that has opened quite near me, I have been there on previous occasions but i felt like i definitely needed to go again.. (if you're a Benefit addict like me, you'll totally understand)
This is what I purchased whilst in Debenhams. As i start to get really anxious in crowded places, a brand new debenhams was not really an ideal place for me. I was browsing through all of the different products on offer at the Benefit counter and decided on the Big Easy, i have had a sample from this before and really liked it, so i was really excited to get the full version.
The lady behind the counter could tell that i was a bit anxious so she decided to give me a few free samples to cheer me up, which really lifted my mood!

| Big Easy - Benefit |
The Big Easy is really lovely on the skin and literally feels like you are not wearing any foundation, it is a light but good amount of coverage for me, and, of course, i am the lightest shade.
It also has an amazing amount of SPF in it, which is also amazing for someone who burned in the space of 5 minutes.
My favourite thing about it is that it is so easy to blend, and as you are blending it, you can really feel it changing from a liquid to a powder, which gives a lovely finish.

| It's Potent! Eye Cream - Benefit |
Here is the one of the samples that i got from my trip, this is the It's Potent eye cream. I tried this out the other night before i went to bed and then again once in the morning. I prefer using this at night so it has chance to work into my under eyes and make me feel and look more awake in the morning.

| Fake Up - Benefit |
This was another thing that i received from the Benefit counter.This is the Fake Up concealer, this is used underneath the eye in a triangular shape, it is then dabbed into the skin with your fingers, this has alot of hydrating properties in it aswell as being a concealer.. big thumbs up from me!! however i think they should do a lighter shade!!
 |
| The POREfessional - Benefit |
The last, but definitely not least, sample from Benefit, was The POREfessional. This is honestly my all time favourite primer, however i haven't tried any other high-end priming products as I haven't really had the budget to go and do so, but it is definitely better than all of the high street primers I have seen on the market.
So thats what i've been up to this week! Be sure to follow this blog if you enjoyed!! :D
