A month of Lipsticks, January 2nd 2014.

Hello lovelies, another lipstick for you all.

Revlon Lip Butter - Creme Brulee 


I love the luxurious feel to these lip sticks/butters they make my lips feel so nourished. This colour Creme Brulee is quite sheer on the lips but enough of colour to not make you look washed out or anything, a hint of caramel, nude shade that can be worn daily to work etc. Its quite glossy that make your lips look luscious and plump. I need to expand my lip butters also as I just love the feel of it on my lips.



I think my lips look alot fuller with this on, there not sticky like lip glosses, enough pigmentation which can be adjusted with more coats or less, to suit whatever look your going for. Here is a picture of it swatched on the hand also.


It looks super shimmery here where the light has hit it but its not that shimmery on the lips a gorgeous glossy finish and the perfect nude. If you like the look of these you can pick one up from Boots. 

Do you own a Revlon Lip Butter?


My Nail Varnish Storage.

Hello lovelies, how have you spent your New Years Day? I Wish all the happiness for you all in the New Year and thought I would share with you all today how I store my nail varnishes and tools etc.


Firstly the acrylic stand you see I bought this of a lady who used to do my acrylic nails as she was closing her shop down and starting to work from home again she was selling these for £20 or £25 not too sure and I had always wanted one so picked it up from her. It holds around 60 ish nail polishes maybe a tad more but I have minis on here so can fit more than that at the moment. 



By looking at the acrylic nail varnish storage shelves you kind of get the idea what polishes I have on there, OPI, Models Own, Company, Natural Collection, Max Factor, Nails Inc, Topshop, The Ciate mani mini collection from there advent calendar with a full size one also, Essie, Barry M collections from there Gelly ones, Limited edition, Textures, Mattes and Nail effects, Loreal and Maybelline Colour Show. It would be a very lenghtly post if I named all the shades but if you want to know any names just comment below, I'd be happy to help.

I then keep a few in this cute little vintage floral looking tin which I actually bought from Home Bargains at £1.99 or £2.99 Bargain! 



This little tin mainly holds Miss Sporty nail polishes, a couple Rimmel, MUA, 2true and a Primark one mainly my cheap and cheerful ones really. Again if you want a more detailed look of them just let me know.

Then lastly the long box is actually the box that held my leopard print GHD's in I really like leopard print and thought it was a great storage idea to hold my other nail polishes. This is currently filled to the brim and if you can't tell already I am a bit of a nail junkie. I am always changing my nails since I stopped getting acrylics done a few months ago. Best thing I ever did, as much as they look beautiful they are so bad for your nails they damage them whatever they say. Plus I get bored really easily of colour's so I like to switch them all the time. So many nail polishes not enough fingers!


In here holds, Revlon, Seche, Hard Candy, Beauty Uk, Seventeen, Me Me Me, No7, Lacura, W7, Technic, Sally Hansen, Essie, Collection, Rimmel and my base and top coats. Like above want to see any particular ones close up or know prices, shades etc just comment below lovelies.

I hide all my tools etc in a little draw underneath all these where since I changed around my beauty room the GHD box now lives in there too as I'm going for a floral, vintage looking beauty room and leopard print wasn't really fitting in with that.






I have used old glossy boxes and baskets to contain tools for my nails etc, I keep one filled with diamonds not real of course, beads, fur effects, stones and nail art decor etc. One with my nail wheels, dotting tools, brushes, cuticle pens and nail art pens. One with nail wraps, my nail polish removers of all kinds, scissors and foot spray cherry one lovely and lastly one filled with my acrylic tips (I never use), nail files, Acrylic nail cutters, normal nail cutters and buffers. From all types of brands some even from the Pound shop! Lastly to not sound too repetitive if you want to know about anything in more detail just comment below and I'll get back to you all as soon as I can.

Hope you liked this and it was some sort of help to all my fellow nail polish junkies or new nail varnish addicts, Hello. I love how I keep mine where do you store your nail polishes?




A month of Lipsticks, January 1st 2014.

Hello lovelies, it felt so strange typing 2014 I just know I will still write 2013 somewhere. Isn't time just flying by? I sound like an old woman now but its true its so scary how time does go by so fast you really do need to make the most of it. But back to the post I thought I would share with you all a lipstick a day for one whole month! Luckily for me I'm quite keen on the odd lipstick so I have enough to fill me out for the month from Drugstore to High end, you never know you might just like one yourself. Here's the first.

MAC - SNOB


A light neutral pink with a purple undertone, gorgeous satin finish that leaves your lips looking shiny and sleek with added glamour and different. I find this to be very different from any other shade of lipstick I have. 


It looks like a Barbie pink here but it has got a slight purple tinge to it. I love this colour and expanding my Mac lipsticks at the moment if you have any recommendations. Also it may be strange to you all but I LOVE the smell of Mac lipsticks they just smell so edible of vanilla cake or something, yummy. But don't eat it, it does make your lips look delicious too though, if you are liking the colour of this it is worth checking it out at your nearest MAC counter lovelies, heres a swatch for you on hand also.


If you want to pick this up online you can find it over at the MAC website. 

What's your favorite Mac lipstick?

Just want to say also a huge HAPPY NEW YEAR to all my lovely followers/readers new and old. I feel like I have come so far from when I started my blog it still amazes me every time I get a new follower and I am so grateful, your all amazing people and make me enjoy blogging even more with your fantastic support!
