I thought I was going to get away with rolling July and any potential August purchases into one blog post but a little last minute beauty box purchase right at the end of the month made this collective haul big enough for one post, oops! 

 

Starting with a few “boring” repurchases – my trusty Schwarpzkopf dry shampoo which I got in Home Bargains for £1.49 each instead of £2.99 and my favourite Nivea Double Effect eye makeup remover which was £2 in Superdrug instead of its RRP £3.99. 

 

I made one Look Fantastic order to finally get my hands on some cult favourite SPF’s I’ve wanted to try for a while as they had them on (I think) 20% off already then gave out a code for an extra 10% off. The La Roche Posay Anthelios UVMune 400 Invisible Fluid SPF50+ Sun Cream (what a mouthful!) was £12.97 instead of £18 and the Garnier Ambre Solaire Ultra-Light Sensitive Sun Protection Face Fluid SPF50+ was £5.39 instead of £8.

 

As always, I *needed* to get free delivery so added a couple more things to my basket including the Neutrogena Hydro Boost Body Gel Cream Moisturiser for Normal to Dry Skin for £4.49 instead of £5.99 and the Cantu Thick Detangle Sturdy Wash Day Comb for £2.87

Instead of £3.99. I am going through body products like crazy at the minute and have wanted a detangling comb for when my hair is wet for ages now. This one has been designed with curly and afro hair in mind – I have neither but my hair gets so tangled so easily and I’m hoping it will help minimise breakage! I think Look Fantastic might have upped their free delivery to spends £30 and over instead of £25 which sucks as I got all this for £25.72 so I think it’s gone up from then! 

 

Lastly, and on the last day of the month, Latest in Beauty sent out a discount code for 30% off any of their boxes so I decided to get the Style Summer Essentials 2022 box which came to £33.60 instead of £48. I got this mainly for the Skingredients Skin Shield Moisturising + Priming SPF50 PA+++ which is full size and worth £51 while the overall contents of the box are worth £274. Also included is an Iconic London Triple Precision Brow Definer - Cool Brown (you can pick from a few different shades), The Body Shop Drops of Youth Concentrate, St. Tropez Gradual Tan Classic Lotion - Medium/Dark, Olverum The Dry Body Oil, Prai Beauty Ageless Upper Arm Crème, Code8 5Secs Hydrating Lip Colour in Voyage en Orient, Escentric Molecules Molecule 01 + Mandarin, Bumble and Bumble Hairdresser’s Invisible Oil Primer, Avant Brightening & De-Puffing Hyaluronic Overnight Eye Recovery Mask and the NUXE Organic Micro-Exfoliating Cleansing Mask. My mum also ended up getting me to order her one too when I told her about the offer! 

 

Overall, my total spend this month was £64.30 instead of £93.95. As always, I use Top Cashback where I can to place orders so I am pending cashback of £3.08 for my Look Fantastic order and £2.95 for the Latest in Beauty purchase. I really recommend them, and they partner with loads of beauty sites! 

Did you buy much last month? I have a few makeup items on my wishlist but they’ve been going in and out of stock and we all know I don’t like paying full price for anything so I’ll keep patiently waiting ;)
