Drugstore Haul

Hey my lovelies, I hope you're all well and are having a good day wherever you are in the world. Today I have for you a fairly big Drugstore Haul, these products were bought on 2 occasions and as per usual I go to Boots and Superdrug with essentials or things in mind I had to buy and end uo buying more than I planned.

So first up was a re-purchase which is my trusty staple Batiste Dry Shampoo, I love this stuff especially because I try to only wash my has twice a week and this stuff keeps the grease at bay. Next I needed new deodorant and I usually go for Dove, I usually buy it when it's on offer but it wasn't so I looked at the others and noticed Garnier had brought a deodorant out and seeing as I like their products I thought I'd try them out. I also bought a new jar of coconut oil from my local health store as my other jar is almost empty.

I went into Boots specifically on this occasion for a dark nude lipstick, going for the over hyped Kylie Jenner lip look so I browsed all the lipsticks and came across the Rimmel London Lasting Finish Lipstick in the shade Asia, as I love Rimmel lipsticks I had to have it. I also saw a haul from VelvetGh0st and she bought the Maybelline Color Drama Lipstick in the shade nude perfection and her description for this was literally the perfect Kylie Jenner color so of course I had to buy it, and I also wanted a pink nude shade so I went for Minimalist. Then I wanted a lip gloss because I don't really have any as I've never really cared about them but I'd thought I'd try one so I bought the L'Oréal Glam Shine Lip Gloss in 400 Juicy Rose Glow.

Next up this one was also one of the main reasons why I went into Boots which was to buy the L'oréal Lumi Magique Foundation as I've seen many reviews that made me want to try it so I had to get it, a review on this foundation will be posted on Thursday, so in 2 days so keep a look out for that. Also I'd seen so many people rave about the Maybelline Erase Eye Concealer so I wanted to try it and see what all the fuss is about. As I bought a new foundation I thought it was only right to buy a new foundation brush so I went for Real Techniques Stippling Brush as I love all the brushes I bought from this brand and I had yet to buy this one.

Next up is the Collection Eyes Uncovered Palette In Nude that I saw a few people use on YouTube and I thought it looked a nice cheap but decent everyday nude palette so I had to buy that and check it out. I thought I was very overdue with buying new nail polish so I went into Superdrug and went straight to the Barry M stand and thought I'd try out the speedy quick dry range with the shades 502 Pit Stop and 450 Lap Of Honour, I think they're the perfect pastel colors.

Hair, skin & body health drink - Lemon water

Lemon's are very good for you, they have many benefits for your body, skin, hair and overall health. They're rich in vitamin C and also contains vitamin B, calcium, potassium, phosphorus and magnesium.

Body: Drinking lemon water everyday will help you lose weight as it speeds up your metabolism and gives you an immediate natural boost of energy, a tip is to drink lukewarm lemon water as soon as you wake up to get the full effects. It cleanses your stomach which helps get rid of indigestion, bloating, stomach pains and cramps. It detoxifies your liver and strengthens and boosts your immune system. It can also cure almost all respiratory diseases such as asthma. Also it helps your oral health by making your breath fresh. Lemon's are acidic but when inside our body it alkalizes.

Skin: Lemons are full of anti oxidants which helps restore the damaged skin cells in your body. Lemon water purifies your body by washing out the toxins from your blood which keeps your skin clear and glowing. It helps get rid of blemishes, wrinkles and fine lines, making it a great anti-ageing remedy. Drinking lemon water constantly can help cure acne, blackheads and skin infections.

Hair: Lemon water helps strengthen your hair by making your hair follicles and roots healthy and promotes new hair growth so as your hair grows it's condition will be overall healthy and strong. Lemon's are a natural stimulant and since lemons contain the essential vitamins and minerals that aids healthy hair growth such as vitamins C, B,  calcium, potassium, ect. Lemon water also helps to treat dry scalp and dandruff because of the anti oxidant that lemon's posses which is very beneficial for your scalp, and if you have oily hair it has the ability to reduce the secretion of sebaceous glands that is present in your scalp, which prevents the hair follicles from getting blocked or clogged.

I have only just started getting into drinking lemon water for about a week now after seeing many videos on YouTube about the benefits of drinking lemon water so I thought I'd write a blog post about it. And so far I'm liking it, I only am drinking one pint of lemon water a day which is when I wake up and I have it lukewarm as cold water will shock your body and it won't work as effectively and fast as lukewarm.

I hope you liked this blog post and it helped you in any way. If you do try lemon water out then leave me a comment on here or on my social media sites as I'd love to talk to you.
