Here we go...

My first proper video.

This video is sponsored by 

Taylor's Whinging Company Ltd

Disclaimer .. these are only my opinions I don't expect you guys to feel the same.




These are the overview of my products


Really nice coverage if blended in properly.


The 3 round makeup sponges I didn't blog about.
But the Applicator Mitt is super easy to use and blends the product really well.


It's a good Polish Remover but I find the cheaper versions more effective.


You can see this in use (here)
My easy French Manicure


Really good coverage concealor
I only bought it because of (Zoella) 
  recommending it in one of her videos



Pressed Powder in Shade 1
Really nice and leaves matte complexion

 
Air brushed finish, it feels really lightweight on the skin and 
covers any imperfections and redness.


Gelly Nail Paint 
in Prickly Pear 
Stay tuned for a review this week.
But I really love the colour so far!

 My nails in this picture are the Jack Wills Dandelion
My review is (here)


This product reminded me of the Laura Mercier Secret Camouflage Palette
Only this was £3.50.
I can't wait to use it.


Although I'm holding the mascara upside down, it is a really good buy.


 The one I can't pronounce, haha. 
Gorgeous colour!

Easy French Manicure...

Hey guys...

I am blogging from my bed tonight

it's so cosy and much warmer than my lounge haha.


I may have 'accidently' slipped into Superdrug again

and 'accidently' purchased a considerable amount

Oh dear

It's a good thing I've just been paid.


Anyway

I was thinking about other nail effects I could show you guys

and I thought about how much I struggled to get the hang of 

a french manicured finish at college

Then I purchased this today



and thought it might make doing it a bit easier

FYI - I don't practice looks before I do it, so sorry if it turns out a bit naff.

The thing with French finish .. you don't need longish nails

because it gives you that effect even if you bite your nails

you silly person. Hehe.


1. You've got to start of with clean unpolished nails

Mines aren't usually this long..


 Remember it's ok if you don't have any nail
as you can fill it in yourself


This is the natural nail colour I'm using



BarryM 125 in Pale Purple
which is a really nice colour on it's own. 


2. Using the BarryM Nail Pen in White, draw around your natural nail tip and a bit more if you like, but still making sure it looks natural.

 A little something like this
and my computer in the background on my comfy duvet

It's really easy to draw on.
You don't have to faff around with tape 
or making huge scruff marks on your skin.


3. Now using the natural Pale Purple colour paint two layers over the white polish.
Your white tips will show through and then can be used like a stencil.

 
First Coat















Second Coat









 See how it's like a stencil under the natural colour!

4. You must wait for the natural colour to dry
Then draw away
it is actually like using a felt tip 
so easy!

 
See how it covers up the pinkyness 

and the finished product...


One French Polish without the faff 
without the £30 salon fee

In the comfort of your own home.

Show me your try outs!
I'd love to see it.

Superdrug Haul...

At the weekend I may have sneaked into
Superdrug for a few bits and pieces.

They have a 3 for 2 deal at the moment

and to be honest

we all know it would be a bit rude if I didn't get some things!! 
 Cheeky!


The funny thing is, I was checking out the stuff to purchase,

I picked up 5 cosmetics (before realising the offer)

      Daniel sighed with relief once we got to the counter 

and the woman asked me if I want a 6th product for free!

Ehh Yes please!!

   So Daniel had to endure another 5-10 minutes of me making my mind up :) happy days.


 Goody bag! Full of ... Goodies!
