#1 What Did I Buy This Month? - October

I don't often have a lot of dosh to spend, which means I don't really go on huge shopping trips and ever have huge hauls. I do love having a nose at what other people have purchased though, so I thought because I don't often have lots of new purchases on a regular basis, I'd start a new feature on my blog featuring the items I've bought over a whole month. 

Rimmel Stay Matte Powder £3.99: This is just a re-purchase, but I love this powder and recommend it to everyone who suffers from annoying oily skin just like I do.

Primark Aztec Nail Wraps £1.00: I haven't actually tried these yet but I couldn't resist picking them up for such a bargain price. I'll post a review after I've tried them out.

Revlon Colour Stay Gel Eyeliner*: I actually won this and the other two Revlon products from a twitter competition. A review will be up soon when I've tried it!

Revlon Top Speed Nail Polish in Forbidden*: A gorgeous dark, deep red and perfect for the Autumn and Winter months. Review up soon.

Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick in Cherry Blossom*: This is such a beautiful colour. It appears as a normal run of the mill red on first appearance, but turns up to be a cherry-toned red when on the lips.

Simple Soothing Facial Toner £2.99: Another repurchase. It's also currently by one get one free on selected products in Simple Superdrug at the moment.

Aussie 3 Minute Miracle £4.99: I've always been a bit lazy with conditioning my hair so for me this is my perfect product. I only have to use it a couple of times a week and the condition of my hair has definitely improved, which is great as I haven't had it cut in an unspeakable amount of time.
Umberto Giannini Jet Set Brunette Luminising Shampoo £5.49: This product really does look like chocolate sauce. I love that the shampoo is richly coloured brunette, however it has actually managed to stain my shower curtain. It smells amazing, but I don't think I'll be buying it again.
Umberto Glam Hair Backcomb In A Bottle £1.99: My hairs pretty limp and lacking volume at the moment, and this sounded like just what I needed. I decided to try the sample size and it works a treat to give a backcombed effect without having to do any unforgivable damage to your hair.
Umberto Giannini Incredible Body Volume Blow Dry Spray £1.99: As I said, my hair is in serious need of volume at the moment. I'm really impressed by this product, it's easy and quick to use and smells lovely as well. The only problem I've had is that it can make my hair a bit greasy if I use too much.

Grey Thin Knit 3/4 Sleeve Jumper - New Look £14.99: I find it really hard to find flattering jumpers (stupid hips) so when I came across this I was thrilled to bits. I love the speckled knit, and especially the dip-hemmed back. I'll definitely be picking it up in a few more colours.
Khaki Vest Top - Primark £2.50: A shopping trip isn't complete without a stop in Primark. I wanted some more 'throw on' style tops, and I love the colour of this.

I'm off to Lincoln on Wednesday to visit my friend at university. I'm SO excited, I've been going through a hugely stressful time with applying to university at the moment so it will be lovely to get away. I can't wait to get dressed up and go out for Halloween as well. Has anyone got any ideas for a last minute costume?
