Boots Haul


So I have travelled back home for the week, as it is Reading Week at my university. I only got back yesterday and already I have gone completely mad in Boots. I wanted to share my purchases with you because I picked up some real bargains, and when I checked my receipt I couldn't believe how much money I saved, and how many points I earned!

Oral B Pro 2000 Electric Toothbrush: £34.99 (Supposed to be £69.99)
I have been weighing up whether to buy an expensive electric toothbrush for some time now. I'm obsessed with having white teeth, but I'm not ready to commit hundreds of pounds towards professional whitening just yet. My dentist only recommends Oral B, and as I suffer with sensitive gums and teeth this will be perfect for me. It has a sensor which tells you if you are brushing too hard, and a timer.

Oral B Precision Clean Replacement Brush Heads: £11.99 (Supposed to be £17.99)
Even though the toothbrush comes with a brush head already, I thought I would stock up while everything was so cheap!

Garnier Ultimate Blends 'The Sleek Restorer' Shampoo and Conditioner: 2 for £3
I've seen this advertised everywhere, and read some really amazing reviews, so thought I would give it a whirl. Whenever Autumn hits, my hair takes a turn for the worse, falling out a lot more and generally just looking more dull and dry. The Loreal Oils collection is also amazing, but I decided to go with Garnier as it was on offer.

Lee Stafford 'Hair Growth Treatment for hair that won't grow past a certain length': £8.49
I have repeatedly raved about this on my blog, and for me it is the holy grail of haircare. I've tried to have a few months without it in a bid to save money, but as I mentioned above, my hair has started falling out quite a lot, and this is really good for treating your roots and scalp and preventing this from happening. It also smells LUSH and let's face it, I want Rapunzel hair!

Seventeen Phwoarr Paint Heavy Duty Under Eye Concealer: £5.49
Again, I've read amazing things about this on the Internet, and decided to try it out while Boots were holding 3 for 2 on cosmetics and haircare. I was a bit disappointed that my local Boots only had two shades available, but I'm hoping the 'Fair' one will be OK! I haven't been getting much sleep lately so I've got high hopes for this!

Kate Moss Lasting Finish Matt Lipstick in '107': £5.49 (but FREE on my 3-for-2)
This was on my latest wishlist that I posted. I love the colour berry in general for Autumn/Winter, and love the Matte finish. I've done a quick swatch to show you - I think it's gorgeous! From trying it on so far, it lasts forever and ever and ever (I've even done the food and drink test, pigging out on Maltesers and Coke, just for experimental purposes for you guys of course...)


Have you gone mad in Boots lately? What do you think of my purchases?

My Christmas Favourites from Boots: Under £10

My Christmas shopping is truly well under way! I am literally so excited for Christmas this year, and can't wait to throw on my Christmas jumper and listen to the good old christmas classics wherever I go! Not to mention the films, and the food... 

I love Boots 12 months of the year, but never more so than at Christmas! Not only does their Christmas range make really nice gifts, but they're all on 3 for 2 which means you can pick up some real bargains. (Not that I'm a Scrooge or anything)

Here is a quick guide of my top picks of Boots Christmas Gifts this year, and the best thing of all is that everything you see here is under £10! So you don't even have to trawl through hundreds of pages on Boots website. Consider it an early Christmas present from me to you!

For Her

Soap and Glory Clean Getaway Travel Set, £10
Yankee Candle Small Jar in 'Soft Blanket', £8.39
