Last weekend marked my first ever visit to a consumer beauty expo - Olympia Beauty. With my Max Factor Ruby Tuesday lipstick and lightweight handbag, I went straight down to the social media hub to discover the latest launches from big beauty brands such as OPI, Sienna X and Dermalogica.

I then spent the rest of the afternoon grabbing some beauty bargains at the likes of NYX Cosmetics, Aduna and Color Club. Watch this space for my haul post...
