During the October half term my sister got to go to America with her school, I mean I did get to go when I was in her year as well but it would have been nice if I could of maybe hid in her suitcase and gone again, with them but apparently this wasn't an option. So obviously I had to give her some dollars to get me a few things which she kindly let me do, I mean if she hadn't I would have definitely had to have hid in her suitcase for sure.
The first things I thought of was some beauty products from Sephora and I only asked her to pick up a few because I didn't want to then get them and them to be the completely wrong shades so I went with the things I'd been wanting to try for a while and knew I would love the shades. The first thing I asked her for was the Bite Beauty Matte Cream Lip Crayon in the shade 'Glace' which is a dusty mauve colour, I absolutely love this colour, it's such a perfect almost purple shade which is perfect for this time of year. I did originally want one of the Kat Von D Everlasting Liquid Lipsticks but unfortunately my sister couldn't find them so instead I asked her to pick me up the Tarte Amazonian Clay 12-Hour blush in the shade Exposed. I'm so glad I decided to ask for this instead, it's such a beautiful blush and the perfect shade, although I wish they had the Kat Von D lipsticks in stock but this just means that there will have to be a Sephora order soon. The last thing thing I asked for was the Fresh Sugar Lip Treatment in the shade Nude because I have heard such great things about these and my lips are beyond dry and chapped and thought this would be a nice little treat to help moisturise my lips and keep them protected and hydrated.
She also kindly picked me up some candles from Bath & Body Works which is a must when you or someone you know goes to America of course. I chose the medium sized tin candle in the scent Vanilla Pumpkin Marshmallow thinking this would smell more of marshmallow's than pumpkin's because I'm not a massive fan of spicy scents and unfortunately their Autumn range was full of spicy scents but luckily this is a really sweet scent and smells like cupcakes which is always a good thing. The last one has to be my favourite and I need it in their 3 wick candle because I've burnt this so much already, it's a mini candle in the scent Marshmallow Fireside and smells amazing and I need this burning throughout the winter season and Christmas time. Why Bath & Body Works don't ship to the UK I don't know, but that needs to happen soon otherwise I'm going to have to go to America purely for Bath & Body Works!

And obviously I couldn't let her go without giving her a long list of American Sweets to bring home! The first thing on the list was the Birthday Cake Oreo's and I'm going to be honest I'm not sure whether I like these, and still don't know, they taste kind of weird and I can't tell whether I actually like them or not. But one thing I do know I like is Reese's peanut butter cups of course, and I know you can get them over here but I made her get me a massive bag of them in the mini's because when they're mini you can eat twice as many of them without feeling too guilty because they're mini so...
A few of the other sweets she brought home were some Jolly Rancher's, Sour Patch Kids and the watermelon ones, peanut butter M&M's as well as Swedish Fish which taste so good and are now my favourite.
I hope you enjoyed this mini American Haul and keep an eye out for some more posts and haul's coming soon!
