As always, the expiry date on the No7 £5 vouchers approached far too quickly, and I had five to use up! In the end I only used three, the sales assistant manage to both extremely confuse and con me! Ended up paying £5 more than I should have because she convinced me to use the No7 3 for 2 promotion, even though I insisted I didn't want to! GRRRR: note to self, trust your instincts!
Anyways, onto the haul. My first thoughts were to pick up the No7 BB Cream, however after swatching the normal/oily cream in medium, I was worried although the tone was deep enough, it leaned slightly too pink, so I will be trundling back at a later date with a MAC sample pot to decant myself a little sample! In the end, I really liked the look of their new skincare range, and picked up the Beautiful Skin Foaming Cleanser for normal/oily skin - retailing at £9.00 here - to use with me old Clarisonic - foamy face washes seem to work better with this. I had been using the Body Shop Passion fruit gel type cleanser, which lathers up pretty well, but doesn't reaaaaally seem to do anything except clean. First thoughts are that I really like this cleanser, and I will do a review on it in the near future.

I also picked up the Beautiful Skin Purifying Exfoliator, which retails at £8.00 here, as I love me a good old scrub - although I have limited my scrub days to Monday and Thursday as I can get a bit over-zealous with the amount of days I scrub! Again, first impressions on first use are wonderful, I really like it and will do an in-depth review soon.
I picked up the mini kit for my mother, which was a bargain at only £5!
Makeup-wise, the first thing I picked up was the Perfect Lips Pencil in Fire! I have only recently got into the whole red lips thing, and have been using my nude lip liner as a base, but really needed a red one, so picked this up!

The Last of my bits are my fail-safe options when it comes to No7 Vouchers - Stay Perfect Nail Colours. The colour temptress is my classic vampy red shade, and has been since I was 18, I am sure you will see a nail of the day with this colour very soon. The second nail colour is Pinky Pure, which I think may be a Limited Edition colour, as I picked it up from the Limited Edition stand. I am currently wearing this, and will be doing a nail of the day on it ASAP!
