I popped into Boots and bought 17 products!

So! A few days ago, I popped into my local Boots store to get my migraine medication as I was in there I could not help myself but to look at the cosmetics stands...

I've become a huge fan on 17 products and have bought a fair few items in the last couple of months and if there's a promotion on I'm a sucker for it!!!

I decided to try the new 17 BB Blemish balm in Medium, This one has SPF 25, 30ml and claims it "Helps improve Skin Condition"
http://www.boots.com/en/17-Blemish-Balm-BB-Cream-SPF-25_1273909/

It cost £5.99 for the promotional time and changes to £6.99 after but if you pay £5.99 for any of the 17 products you get a free gift!

The "Get Bronzed" gift comes in a box all wrapped up in tissue paper and inside are an Ultimate Volume lipgloss the colour is "In The Nude" ~ a small pot of Bronzed cream blush which is a limited edition and finally a pot of eyeshadow which reminds me of Sin from the UD Naked palette.

I tried the BB Balm which is one of many that I have bought and I absolutely love it!

It is very moisturising and goes on my skin really evenly and smooth, covers my blemishes and spots, pushes into the skin really nice and I highly recommend it!
I don't know what the original BB Balm is like but this version is fabulous!

The free gift products are a nice little extra to my collection of makeup and I find the eyeshadow so pigmented and has hardly any fall out when applied on top of eye primer.

The Cream bronzer is great but I find that because I use fake tan on my face you can hardly see it as it blends into my cheeks and temples a little too well for my liking!  Appears more like a shimmer instead of bronzed sunkissed cheeks, maybe if you have paler skin it will look more appropriate as a bronzer than it does on darker skin but none the less it's still fab as a free gift!

Thanks for reading!
