3D Alice in wonderland + Haulage....Benefit/Hotel chocolat/MAC/Lush (of course)

Alice in wonderland was AMAZING. I went to the second showing of the day it was released because I'm a geek like that, I even made my friend power walk from uni to the train station so we could get there early even though we had like 2 hours and I had pre-booked tickets. I really recommend it, when it ended I was like wow that went so quick! Time flies when your enjoying something.

After the movie I went shopping, I really need to control my spending right now but oh how it doesn't help when your in the city center numerous times a week. Anyway I'm typing this with the smell of sweet vanilla wafting around me thanks to the scarf I spray attacked at boots. I actually really wanted it but it was sold out due to the save 66p offer so £1.33 for a bottle of yummy smelliness? Bargain. I might have to pop back in to get it and maybe some other scents too..

Okay so thing's that I actually got my hands onto was: 

Benefit- Coralista    
I finallyyy got my hands on Coralista, I've been wanting to buy this blusher for a long long time, I've heard so many good thing's about it so I got it a couple of day's ago from Debenhams as they had 10% off beauty.

 
 
First of all I have to say how nice it smells, pretty much all of the benefit blushers do, this is the second one I own the other one being Dallas which I seemed to have stopped using so it's nice to have a great smelling blusher in use again! I'm not a huge fan of shimmery blushers but this one is just right, the colour is gorgeous and I can't wait to use it.

Dorothy Bubble Bar- £2.80

Okay so the smell I got told is like the figs and leaves soap which I'm not a fan of. I compared them both at the store but its similar but Dorothy is somehow different in a way. I just had to get it because its so cute and I'd like to see my bath water change blue or different shades thanks to the rainbow. I'm a huge fan of Lush bubble bars....think I've tried almost all of them!

I also got Amandopondo £2.45

As you can see I've already used it. It's supposed to smell of Lemon and Rose but personally I think it's more Lemon than anything, I think it overpowers the smell of rose that might be in it. Despite this I still like the smell, it's refreshing. I had lovely fluffy bubbles but obviously the water stayed it's normal colour and the smell didn't linger. No match to The comforter.

I popped into MAC as I was in there a couple of days before and tried on the lipstick Faux a satin finish mauvey pink.When I got home I felt the need to buy it, I really liked the colour on me and it was nothing I've had before.
So I went back but somehow ended up getting Brave which is a Satin muted pink beige with a pearl overtone.
I still want faux!
 
 
My 3rd Mac lipstick believe it or not! Any recommendations for some everyday pinks?

Last of all, I'm the biggest chocoholic in the world, I'm so going to have diabetes when I'm old. I went to Hotel chocolat just to look (honest!) and the SA let me try some chocolate and of course I went back and got a box....

Soooo yummy, and of course they look adorable. A nice sweet note to end my day on =)

Finnaly got my Alice In Wonderland Pallette! + Random talk.

So as I write this I'm recovering from the pain of being stabbed in the hand with a pen by my brother, no joke...a hole in my hand followed by blood. Painful.
Anyways hope you've all had a good weekend, mines been kinda busy at work! Don't really see the point in valentines day except that it's a excuse for people to tell someone who's single they like someone. Although I guess people could do that any other day too. Other than that commercialised rubbish in my opinion.
So last week as I was saying in a post about packages I received one from my lovely BF and with it all he sent me a Alice in wonderland palette I've been wanting for agess. I had been going on about it to him for ages and told him he MUST get it for me and bless he did.


The pictures don't do it justice at all, they even look somewhat washed out. But really the colours are so vibrant and there's a mixture of glitter and matte eyeshadows. It also came with a free pocket rocket sample lipgloss, there was a picture of a guy on it but my boy decided it didn't need to be there haha.
Another thing he got me was the amazing Lace leggings that I loved and also did a post about here. I was so surprised and couldn't believe he got them for me. Still can't to be honest, I can't wait to wear them!
