Clinique Job Lot
If you don't know what a job lot is, it's basically people selling products in one sale rather than selling them separatly. I picked up this mini set of Clinique products for £3.76 + p&p, which I think is amazinggg, considering the prices of the full sized versions! Included in this set is Clinique Self Sun 50ml (RRP £18 for 125ml), Clinique Happy Body Smoother 75ml (RRP £26 for 200ml), Clinique Deep Comfort Body Butter 75ml (£19 for 200ml), Clinique Perfectly Real Compact Makeup 2g ($25 for 12g) , Clinique Colour Surge Eyeshadow 1.8g (£26 for eyeshadow quad 4.8g).
It's a great way of trying products out before splurging, if I was buying these by Clinique's pricing standards, it would have cost me 10x the price I paid which is insaneeeee! I have seen many Designer beauty products such as MAC, Chanel and Dior going for dirt cheap prices, so it's always worth having a little search and see what comes up!

I was in the market for a new primer/BB cream, I currently use Rimmel Fix And Perfect Pro Primer and bought this as it was half the price of Revlon Photoready Perfecting Primer which I had been using before that and Iwas trying to save money. But compared to Revlon (which is ace btw), the Rimmel primer is shocking, it did nothing for my skin and didn't mattify whatsoever; and with slightly oily skin this was my biggest concern. So when i saw this Clinque Age Defense BB Cream, I thought I'd give it a go!

Clinique Almost Lipstick
You may be thinking I've gone a bit Clinique crazy, but who can resist when there are such bargains to be had?! This is Clinique's Almost Lipstick in Flirty Honey. It's a lip balm with a tiny hint of colour that is super moisturising. For this 1.2g lipstick, I paid £4.40 + p&p, the full priced version for 1.9g is £17, so think I did pretty well here! It is really nice to wear and it's good to wear as a top coat to a lipstick to add shine to your lips.

Maybelline Colour Sensation Lip Stain
I am a girl who loves brightly coloured lips, whether it be red, pink or coral, i think my lips are my best facial feature and I like to showcase this. This Maybelline Colour Sensational Lip Stain in Shy Red (RRP £5.99) cost me £1.99 + P&P. I love it because you can build up the level of colour you want by adding another layer and it STAYS on your lips, it lasts so much longer than lipsticks and glosses. It gives a nice matte finish, but you can always add a layer of gloss if you want some extra oomph.

I wanted a nice new lipgloss to go with my other lip products and I came across Maxfactor Vibrant Curve Effect Lip Gloss, I got it in 'In the spotlight' which is a nice coral colour. It goes on quite sheer but it is very shimmery and it has a lovely watermelon scent! This cost me £1.99, which is a quarter of the price it would have cost me to buy it in Boots (£7.99). As a student, I'm all about saving money!
