Making Magic In Diagon Alley At Universal Orlando Resort

Wands up all you Harry Potter fans! I've been a huge fan since I was around 10 years old and have devoured the books time and time again since their release. When I started my first summer job at Universal Orlando in 2011 I was beyond excited to be able to work in the amazing Wizarding World of Harry Potter as an attractions attendant at Flight of the Hippogriff. The following year I worked as a dragon handler at Dragon Challenge and had the best summer ever in Orlando!

Summer 2018 Primark Haul From Universal's Cabana Bay Beach Resort!

Primark Harry Potter Haul - December 2017

If you are a watcher of our YouTube channel you will know all about our love of all things Harry Potter! Primark have been killing it this year with their Harry Potter merchandise and on a recent visit to their Newcastle store I couldn't resist picking up a few Potter themed items!

Primark PS...Pro Beauty Sponges

When we saw that Primark had released some new beauty sponges we couldn't wait to put them to the test! As die hard fans of the original Beauty Blender we are naturally sceptical of anything that claims to be a cheaper alternative as we have tried a few 'dupes' in the past and they have failed the test! However we had an open mind and selected a few different styles of sponges to try out and review, some from the regular PS.. range and some from the PS...Pro range. As suspected the PS...Pro sponges fared much better in our test.

Primark Rose Gold Jewellery Picks

Over the past couple of months Primark has really stepped up their game as far as jewellery is concerned and on recent shopping trips their Rose Gold Collection in particular caught my eye. I am not someone who wears a lot of jewellery, preferring instead to stick to my wedding and engagement ring as daily jewellery staples. When I am looking for jewellery such as necklaces, earrings and bracelets I like to pick up 'costume' jewellery that is more affordable and trend based meaning I can switch them up to compliament different outfits and seasons. During my recent Primark shopping expeditions I have collected quite a number of rose gold pieces that I wanted to share with you. They are in store now if you see anything that catches your eye!.  

Primark PS...Pro Blending Brush - Artis Dupe?

 

We have seen a lot of blog posts recently showing various 'dupes' for the Artis Oval Blending Brushes. The Artis brushes range in price from £28 for the smallest to £60 for the large foundation style brush. We have been intrigued by the Artis brushes but have not yet been tempted to invest in them due to the large price tag! When we spotted these recently released oval brushes in Primark we were very excited and threw a couple each into our basket without a second thought. The Primark version come in three sizes (we were only able to get our hands on two) and range in price from £2.50 to £4.00 (yes, really!)

 

Primark Haul May/June 2016

Recently we were shopping at our favourite mall, Intu Metrocentre and we couldn't resist popping into Primark to see if they had anything new since our last visit. The Metrocentre store is undergoing something of a makeover right now. They have taken over some space next door and are expanding. Its already a pretty big store covering 2 floors so it is going to be huge! How exciting for all of us North East based Primark addicts!

We both picked up a few things and wanted to share them with you. After all, who doesn't love a Primark haul! Here is what we picked up and who bought them!

Marble Clutchbag - Mimi
As we were browsing the bags Elle found this beautiful and so much cheaper than it looks marble clutch bag! It was literally the last one in the whole store! It is so pretty and versitile and I can see it being well used over the summer months. I already have it put aside to complete the outfit I plan to wear to my cousins engagement party next week.

My Favourite Gym Clothes

In 2015 we had a lot going on with a big holiday (vlogs are on our YouTube channel now!) and a wedding and that meant one thing....get fit or die trying! Well maybe not die but I certainly felt like I was going to quite a few times! I soon realised one thing; if I had gym clothes I liked, I wanted to go and exercise. This may sound totally ridiculous but you all know it is true! Once you get into those leggings and trainers you are ready to take on the world! (and still look decent enough to pop into Asda afterwards to pick up some super healthy food!)
