So I decided to get a couple skincare and makeup things because I hadn't been shopping in a while.

THE BODY SHOP :
*Tea Tree Squeaky Clean Face Scrub (£6.50) - I have only used this once or twice so far but love the smell and I use it in the morning and it feels really refreshing and cleansing.
*Tea Tree Cool and Creamy Face Wash (£5) - Again, I've only used this a few times and use it at night/evening, love the smell and is smooth on the face.
*Tea Tree Blemish Gel (£6) - I've used this several times and again, loving the smell. The applicator is really good and I have definitely noticed a difference through using it.
*Seaweed Clarifying Toner (£8.50) - At first I was a bit sceptical over the seaweed but it actually smells AMAZING. Super refreshing on the face, love it!
*Seaweed Day Cream (£11) - I use this after the toner in the morning and evening as its a moisturiser and again, love the fresh smell of the seaweed. It is a fairly small pot so for £11 it is expensive but if it works well I will be happy to repurchase.

MAC :
*Pro Long Wear Concealer in NC15 (£17) - After many of you guys recommending it to me I caved and got it. I love how a very little amount goes a long way and the coverage is great. I was a bit concerned for the shade as I bought online and as I am pale I was sceptical on whether this would be light enough but it's a perfect match! Not a huge fan of the pump though, often more product than needed comes out.
*Satin Lipstick in Faux (£15.50) - I love it. It's a perfect nude shade for me and is not far off my natural lip colour which I love. Not too dark and not too light as its a pretty mauve/pink shade. Definitely recommend!

URBAN DECAY
*Naked 3 Palette (£31.66 on sale, usually £38) - Even the packaging of this is gorgeous! I adore everything about this! The brush is pretty good also and the colours are great for my blue eyes and pale skin. I used Limit and Nooner today which was the first time I used the palette and it is definitely a new favourite!

Sorry for such a long post and thanks if you read to the end! :)

Great haul! I've never tried any skincare from the body shop but I've had my eye on the seaweed range. Is the toner alcohol free? Love mac faux and thr concealer is great too just wish it wasn't in a pump dispenser.

Nice haul! I use the seaweed line exclusively and the toner is my favorite part lol. Just dabbing it on my face makes me feel like a rich person at a spa with the smell. It's also alcohol free Rebecca :)
I also love the moisturizer, but if you use it during the day, the spf one lasts me almost twice as long and is.the same formula but with spf. I notice zero difference in the actual formula. I only use that during the day now though. I have both, but I really only use the day cream on days I'm not leaving the house, and the spf one when I'm leaving the house. I use a night Cream now by a different brand or the night serum in the seaweed line on nights when my skin feels dull. But the price is definitely worth it all in my opinion. Especially since the night Cream I use (by ole Hendrickson) and pretty much all the skincare at sephora is like 3 times the price of them both put together lol.

I looooove the seaweed line. I have the toner, day cream and the cleanser. They have improved my complexion (combo skin) :) and they overall are at a good price comparing to other brands, as Alyx said.
