Anastasia Beverley Hills| Liquid Lipgloss

Hey Ya'll!

I've been browsing the internet, in the hopes finding a lipgloss that I like. I mean, I like lip glosses but it takes more than just a bit of shine to interest me in them. I'll be honest I'm more of a matte lip kind of girl. BUT I was more than intrigued in these lip glosses, I've heard many good things and I wanted to really put the gloss to the test.
I chose a dark reddish plum colour, I like a bold lip and decided that if I was going to go for it, why not go for it hard.

Behold!


How did that little blonde hair get there! Whoops..


This Lipgloss can be found on Amazon ranging in price from £25.00-£29.99 - click this link to view on their website.

I've been really impressed with this, the colour pay-off is amazing, the way it applies just glide on. The texture on the lips is a little tacky but not sticky or gloopy which is great.
I personally would like to grow a collection in these lip glosses as they are just what I am looking for. I am also totally in love with their liquid lipsticks (a blog post will be coming at some point for this too) as they are beautiful.


Hope you enjoyed this post, I'll see you soon!


Love C xx

The Perfect Nudes| Essie Nails

I have a love/hate relationship with painting my nails.

I HATE having to actually paint them and then wait for them to dry, I have better things to do and always end up smudging them or chipping them.

I LOVE having them painted a nice colour and find that when they're painted, they're stronger and healthier.

Dilemma!

However, I recently caught sight of these Essie nail varnishes in Boots and was reminded of seeing my sisters nails a few months ago. She had the 'Spin the bottle' colour on and it looked so classy.
I decided to pick them up because I was hoping that maybe these were going to better than the other nail polishes I had.
These two came together as a gift set (to myself obvs!) and was around £12.99 I think.

Definitely worth it!



Honestly, I painted my nails in about 2minutes.
The applicator is so easy to use; you can get the product onto your nail in one to two strokes without causing stripes.
The polish drys within about 20 to 30 seconds which is great for me because I get bored, sidetracked and to be honest I get frustrated with waiting haha! These are definitely polishes I would buy again and again as they don't go out of style, they are a classic.

'Ballet slippers' is a very subtle, yet cute.. well.. ballet shoe pink colour that gives your nails a healthy pink glow.


'Spin the Bottle' is the perfect nude colour, I have honestly been looking for this colour for so long. It is, again, subtle but gives enough colour too. I really love this one and is my favourite of the two.

If you like your nude colours or need a nail polish that can keep up with you and your busy lifestyle, or like me you get bored easy, then I really recommend giving these a try.

Hope you had a beautiful weekend.

Love C. xx
