Primark Haul

I love Primark so I thought I would show you some of my love for it with some things I recently picked up from there. These purchases are mainly homeware as the homeware was really nice but there's also a couple of other random purchases like sunglasses as the summer is approaching us.

Primark Home White Heart Cushion- I have a bit of a cushion buying obsession so when I saw this really pretty heart cushion I had to have it as I knew it would look nice on my pink and white themed bed and would also look really nice with the throw that I'm about to talk about.
This was £3

Primark Home Super Soft Cream Throw- Getting a throw was something I was thinking about for ages so when I felt this one I had to have it as I had recently re-done my room and thought it would make my bedroom look more classy but cute at the same time. I also like to use this as a background for Instagram photos as I love a white background.
This was £4.50 

P.S. Love Waterproof Mascara in Black- I've tried one P.S. Love mascara in the past and it's really good so I thought I would pick up a waterproof mascara as during the day I only wear waterproof mascara (because when I get headaches my eyes water) so I wanted to see if it was any good like the other one.
This was £2

Yellow Mirror Sunglasses- At the end of the summer last year my sunglasses broke so I needed to get some new ones and I had wanted some aviators for ages so I picked these ones up. They're also mirrored but not that much as I don't like the majorly mirrored ones only the ones with a yellow tint like these.
This was £2

Unicorn Trinket- I really like watching room tours on YouTube and when I saw this unicorn dish thing I had to have it as I had been looking for one for ages and it's a unicorn! (and as you can tell I love unicorns). I just keep random bits and bobs on here as at the moment I have sunglasses, body sprays and a mascara.
This was £4

Glittery Unicorn Sign- Primark have loads of different signs in at the moment and I saw this one and it was the only one I really liked as I wanted a small one for the knobs on my wardrobe and this one was a great size. It also says 'dream big' on here and that's super cute and the unicorn is glittery as well.
This was £1.50

My Best Friend Is A Unicorn Wide Shopper- Lastly, I was getting a bit bored of my current PE bag as I had it for a while and I wasn't too keen on the print so I got a new one with a unicorn on because it was cute and the slogan on it will really annoy someone I know as he hates unicorns A LOT.
This was £1.50

As you can see Primark have some really nice things in at the moment for really good prices. I think all of this came to £18.50 or £18 and that's really good. I'm definately going back to Primark soon. If you want more follow me on Twitter (_louisecarter_) or Instagram (thelipstickinsider).

Wishlist | May 2016

I usually do wishlists on fashion but I wanted to share with you all of the lifestyle/beauty/random things I want to get. I thought I would do a short one because I personally prefer reading ones which only have a few items so I thought it would be fun to try it out.

1. White Wire Love Plaque from New Look- I have been loving New Look recently especially their adorable homewear and when I was looking on the website I found this cute sign which I thought would look really nice in my room. It's not like something I have already so it would cute in a corner. I don't know how big this is but I don't think it's too big or too small and it's only £12.99 which is a great price.

2. Floral Tumbler from Kate Spade- Kate Spade is a shop I love even though I have never bought anything from it as it is quite expensive. I really like their stationery as it's black, white and gold (drools) but I saw this on the website and really liked it as I love florals and would look super cute anywhere. It is £15 which is expensive and I could cheaper ones in Primark for only £3 but I love the print so much.

3. Liliya Bow Leather Small Wash Bag from Ted Baker- I don't need another makeup bag but I've loved Ted Baker makeup bags for ages and this was super cute as it's really simple and classy. I would use this to keep all of my everyday makeup in as it seems like a good size for it all. This is £35 which is sooo expensive but I do really like this and I'm sure it's good quality as it's Ted Baker.

4. Pinkie Floral Print Backpack from Asos- I love backpacks and have an obsession with them but obviously I want another. I really like the drawstring backpack style and the one I got which started my backpack love was a drawstring. I also really like the floral print of this backpack as it different to what floral prints I would normally go for but it's good to be different and I really like this.

5. Naked Palette from Urban Decay- The palette everyone talks about. I actually have the £4 MUA dupe of this but I do want to try the original version to see what all of the hype is about. I decided to go for Naked 1 instead of 2 and 3 because I think the colours are more wearable and more me even though the shades in Naked 3 are gorgeous and I want to find a good dupe for it.

6. Zoella Frosted Vanity Case from Superdrug- All of you probably know how much I love Zoella Beauty and I've wanted this makeup bag for ages but I don't need it so I thought I would include it in this wishlist. I think it would be the best place to store all of my makeup as it's big but I have a makeup bag which is the same size so I don't need it but the print is so cute and me.

I'm sorry this is shorter than usual and if you want I can continue doing longer wishlists as I like making wishlists in general. If I get any of these things (Being completely honest, I probably won't) I'll let you know on my social media which is @_louisecarter_ on Twitter and Facebook.
