London Drugstore Goodies

While I was in London one of my top to-do shopping plans was to hit up a London drugstore and check out all the beauty/makeup brands that we don't have access to in Asia/US. I could have spent hours along the aisles sniffing and swatching, but unfortunately I didn't have much time in the store before I saw my boyfriend yawning of boredom at the door... men!!! I ended up literally grabbing these goodies as quickly as I can.

Nail polishes

I took the chance to test out 3 nail polish brands that are new to me:
From left to right, Orly VIP (mini size), Nails Inc. Wellington Square and Models Own Swan Lake. 

Wellington Square looks like a perfect peachy/pinky summer shade and I can't wait to try it! I think this will be on my nails next. 
The other 2 are sheer glitter polishes that were too pretty for me to resist. VIP is pure pink glitter in clear polish, and Swan Lake is a bronzy, rose-goldish glitter mixed with silver specks in a clear polish.


Soap and Glory products

Yay! I've been wanting to try out Soap and Glory ever since I heard about them on Youtube. The packaging and product names are so hilarious. If I could, I would've bought them all... Finally I settled on their infamous hand cream Hand Food. Love! I rarely use hand cream because they always tend to leave my hands feeling greasy/clamy. Fortunately this one sinks in pretty quick leaving my hands buttery smooth. Also it smells lovely... perfumy, flowery loveliness.

Trick and Treatment is their under-eye concealer which also claims to have clinically proven dark circle reducers. Being a sucker for concealers I had to get this. I have yet to try it out but the packaging looks promising. I have to say for a drugstore brand, Soap and Glory packaging is very decent. And creative!



All you lucky UK girls out there... London drugstores are amazing!
