June Penneys/Primark and Essence Haul

Today I went on a mini shopping spree in Penneys/Primark for some basics. I picked up some nail polish remover and some new nail polishes, make-up brush cleaner (as I really need to clean my brushes and Beauty-La-Linda showed me this) some brushes, clear eye-lash/eye-brow mascara and my fav nude essence lipstick.

 

I needed nail polish remover, then I saw that the essence counter had been restocked and they had “the gel nail polish” base coat and top coat. I had just tried this out last week at my fellow blogger Linda’s and found it really good. Then I thought why not get some new bright colour polishes for the summer. The purple Essence “20 Beautiful Lies” and the pink from Essences “The Pastels” collection “yummy gummy”.

You can never have too many make-up brushes, especially for the eyes so I just picked some up! For €1.59 to €1.89 you can’t go wrong. Beauty-La-Linda has reviewed some of these here.  Also the brushes I have need to be cleaned so I’m not brushing old make-up and bacteria onto my face.

I saw the essence “Lash & Brow gel mascara” a product I have never tried before but thought I should as your brows should never be neglected as part of any good make-up routine.

This year I have been using essence nude lipstick no.40 “look at me” as my stable so as I was running low I grabbed a new one.

Penneys is one of the best places to stock up on everything without going over budget while still being on trend. They also stock the essence make-up range which is one of my favourite high street brands.

Has anyone else tried any of these products? What are your thoughts?
