Hey Beauty Buddies…
I’m back again this week with another Wednesday chatter, only this time I have a pocket friendly little goodie bag to reveal gals! Considering there’s very little I enjoy more than trawling through the shelves of Boots & Superdrug, putting my faith into buying something I’e never tried, tested or even seen (!!) seems a tad bizarre if I’m honest… particularly for a girl who arrives home every pay-day with her arms plastered in a series of multi coloured cosmetic swatches. Oh yes, Steve knows only too well when I’ve been lured into another drug store Me Spree! Anyone else with me on this much loved ritual?
So put your feet up for ten minutes & watch me discover what budget beauty goodies have found a new home in my collection…
Don’t forget to say hello in the comments below, we do love a chatter here on Confetti & Curves 🙂

Well will just reply to both comments here then lol. I love getting the sneak peek! lol! 🙂 Watching my fellow blogger friends’ videos are some of my favorite videos to watch. I really want one of those bags now haha! I should ask Jen from The Avon Insider about them. I’m sure she might know about them if they have them here. I won a giveaway of hers back in the fall and she sent me a lot of nice Avon stuff too that I’m still making my way through it lol. I even got a nail polish like you got but I think it’s a red shade and I’ve been wanting to wear red lately so I might just do that color next! I am already missing blogging! At least I can still pop on here to read and interact with everyone. I can’t give that up! Enjoy your goodies Karen! I would love to see what the eyeshadow and lipstick look like applied and the nail polish too of course! 😉 I hope you’re having a great day too! XXX

No cure for that addiction Katie lol Yes, it's good to pop on and keep up with everyone, keeps you in the loop of things 🙂 I will certainly do an all over look very soon – I think they're going to be lovely… that lippy is such a pretty shade! I reckon it's a Katie shade 😉 hehe Sending you the hugest of hugs huni ❤ XXXXXXXXXX

Hi Karen! I’m so glad you like my chatty comments! I just love chatting with everyone and still am spending a bulk of my time reading blogs and commenting lol. I will be sure to ask Jen about it sometime soon. I know she has a lot going on right now. I need to repaint my nails tonight, I think that’s how I will spend my evening. 🙂 Oh I bought the Simple Micellar water the other day but haven’t tried it yet because I haven’t worn any makeup in a while. I plan on wearing some today so that will give me a chance to use it. I hope you’re having a wonderful day Karen!! Sending you back the hugest of hugs!! ❤ XXXXXXXXXXX

I don’t paint my nails often but I think that colour would encourage me to a bit more. I am a bit jealous. I used to love browsing Avon catalogues. Didn’t get things often but I did love those catalogues. Haven’t seen one though since they pulled out of Ireland.

I’m exactly like you Emma, love having a wee flick through the catalogues but very rarely order anything – more down to the fact that I can’t test them out… I love having a good browse in drug stores etc too much lol Oh I have no idea they were even in Southern Ireland at all… obviously we still have them here in the North. I wonder why they pulled it?! Can you order online instead? XXX

Recession and all that. Think it was 2013 that they pulled out. I just checked the site and can’t order online either. Shame!
