Marie Claire September Issue


Like everyone else this month I purchased Marie Claire. On the cover is the gorgeous Anne Hathaway. I can't wait to see her new film, One Day which is released this week. Unfortunately I haven't read the book but if the ads are anything to go by this will be a Summer hit. Hopefully I can get the boyfriend to tag along with me.


 Of course when I seen the gorgeous Ciate nail polish freebie with this month's issue I couldn't resist. Last month, I got a Ciate lipgloss with the magazine which I've been using alot. There are 2 different shades to choose from and I picked My Fair Lady. It's a gorgeous nude colour which would be perfect for work. Expect a NOTD very soon.

There is also a Dove Nourishing Oil Care Express Treatment Conditioner Sample with this issue. Has anybody used it yet?? I can't wait to try this out. This product is a conditioner and a treatment in one so it seems to have a lot to live up to. I haven't tried anything from the Dove Haircare range yet so I'll let you know my thoughts. As this is a travel size product I will probably wait until I go away to use it.

Have you purchased this month's Marie Claire magazine??..What nail polish did you get??

Weekly Round Up #5

Here are some my highlights from last week........

Monday I met my boyfriend in town. We went shopping and I picked up some lovely goodies.
 I brought all my empties Back to MAC and picked up another lippie to add to my ever growing collection. A lustre lipstick, it's in the shade Patisserie.


   I don't hear it mentioned enough  which is strange as it's a gorgeous neutral pink shade. I'm loving it so far.


While at MAC, I purchased the Mineralize Charged Water Skin Hydrating Mist from the Semi Precious. I've never tried the Fix+ spray so I snapped up this to try it out. While in town I also picked up the OPI Texas Lil Shooters Collection (not pictured above) which you can see here. After shopping for what felt like a age, we finshed off our trip by heading to Yo Sushi! were we had a lovely dinner.. Yummy!!

Tuesday As I wasnt working I spent the day studying  for my theory test and checking out college courses. I'm hoping to do Event Management in September but I haven't found a course yet that suits my schedule. I work weekday mornings so I have to do a Part-time course at night. Even though I'd probably much prefer to do a Full-time one. Who knew it was so hard to find a Part-time Event Management course...I most certainly didn't. I'm really looking forward to my theory test cause afterwards I'll be able to drive officially. I was given driving lessons for my 21st birthday way back in February which I haven't used yet. I'm really looking forward to taking them though even if I am quite nervous.

Friday I went to Hollister as it finally opened. It was so busy all day so I went down in the evening and it was like empty so I had a look around and I picked up some bits which you can check out here!. I really liked the shop and I love the layout and interior. While I was in Dundrum I also went to McCabes and picked up some goodies that were so inexpensive. I couldn't possibly leave without them.

 Saturday Enroute to picking up my nephew I popped into Boots in Liffey Valley. A while ago I was told that Stila was opening a stand instore. Of course I went in to look at the stand and left with more products which I hadn't planned on doing.You can check out what I purchase here. If you haven't been to Boots in Liffey Valley it's huge and has to be the biggest one I've ever seen.

 Sunday I was working 12 to 6. As I work in town I  go shopping alot which results in me spending money on little things which certainly adds up without me knowing, I arrived in a bit early so I went into Brown Thomas.  I spotted a new stand at MAC for their Sized To Go Collection. I wasn't expecting to see this instore as I heard it was just going into airports as they are travel sizes. I really like this collection as I think it's a good way to try out products and it's also handbag size.


I got the Fix+ spray (€9) and the Cleanse-Off Oil (€9) I can't wait to try these products out. I've heard such good things about the Cleanse-Off Oil so I have high expectations.

After work my boyfriend picked me up and we went to see Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2.
 I was so looking forward to seeing this movie and I wasn't left disappointed one bit. I really enjoyed it and most importantly it stayed true to the book. I don't want to say too much about the movie cause some of you may not have seen it yet. I was so sad to see it come to an end!! At least we have Twilight to look forward to.

I picked up this month's Marie Claire Magazine for the bus journey home. A Ciate lipgloss comes free with this issue and I love it so far. Inside the mag you also get a £10 voucher for the Ciate. That's not all on the lipgloss packaging there is also a promotional code for 15% off your total order when you shop online.If their lipgloss is anything to go by I will be picking up some more products!!

What did you girls get up to during your week??
