#NottsBBMeet Day and Keihl's visit

Yesterday I had the most amazing day at the #NottsBBMeet (Nottingham Beauty Bloggers meet up) and was so excited to meet everyone.
My Face of the Day! Wearing Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain in Crush.
 Throughout the day we did lots of shopping, I particularly liked going round with Sally from Rainy Day FacesEllie from Waterproof LashesGemma from Gemma Means JewelJoanna from Minty Essence and Clair from Bows, Bags and Boots. It was great to meet so many bloggers that I hadn't met before and also the people behind some blogs I love!

Sophie from Tattooed Tealady, along with the other organisers had split us into four groups to visit Kiehl's .


My Keihl's group!

Keihl's welcomed us with Bubbly and orange juice and cakes :)


Each of us had a skincare consultation and while we were waiting we got to have a look around the store and the lovely products. I spoke to one of the ladies about their new BB cream which has correcting and improving properties for the skin, we ended up getting a full size bottle in the evening meal goodie bags, more on that in the evening meal post! 

 

I love the feel of the store and the big apothecary chest behind the till. The store was also laid out in stands for different skin types, bestsellers, fragrance and men's skincare.





In my skincare consultation, I was shown their range of cleansers, toners and serums matched to my skin type after a dryness tester was done on my skin. I was told about the importance of toners (something I'll be trying to use from now on) and was intrigued by the Midnight Recovery Concentrate. Thanks to Keihl's for putting this event on for us!



For the rest of the day we shopped! I saw this quote and had to snap it, sorry it's blurry but my hands were shaky from the heavy bags!



This is what I bought through the day, I got the 'Good Things' face mask and Spot clearing gel on offer at Boots, as seen on my wishlist. I also checked my points and offers in the Boots advantage card machine and got a free Tea Tree and Witch Hazel shine control Day Moisturiser! We popped into Topshop and I got the Peel Off Nail varnish in 'On the Blink' and 'Air Kisses'. I also finally picked up the MUA Naked 1 dupe, the undressed palette.

I also went to the evening meal so will be posting about that and the goody bags in a separate post later, look out for that. Again, I would like to thank Sophia and the other organisers so much and all the lovely bloggers I met for making it such a lovely day!
