MeMeMe Nail Polish- Swatches and Review

Refined, Wild, Exotic, Vivacious, Demure, Impulsive, Proud.

Top to bottom: Refined (Can hardly see), Wild, Exotic, Vivacious and Demure.

Proud and Impulsive.

Price: £4.50 each.

Demure and Refined are from the Classic collection whilst the rest are from the Catwalk collection.

The brush is wide (Can cover my baby finger) which some may like but I had to get used to it. Refined and Impulsive were quite streaky but I find that most pastels and yellows are. Apart from that, the formula is fine.

£4.50 for 12ml is affordable, I'm just not sure if I like the brush and no colours particularly stand out to me (I really dislike the colours of Proud and Impulsive and the others are colours you can get from any brand)

You can buy these from MeMeMe Cosmetics or Superdrug.

Little shop!

I haven't been in town for ages! For the last couple of months I've had to buy school revision books and equipment but from now on, the money I earn can be spent on myself :)

I love this time of the year as all the Christmas stalls are out with pretty scarves (3 for £5, getting some next time), home made fudge and massive frying pans filled with noodles, chicken and all things yummy.

I'm in desperate need of a whole new wardrobe and I'm slowly getting there. Next week I'll buy a coat, week after, jeans, then hoodies, then tops, then underwear.

H&M T-shirts- 2 for £7.99

Primark grey pumps- £4

Primark thermal socks- £2.50 for 2 pairs. Love these, they're so thick and warm!

Primark balconette purple lace bra- £5

Primark plunge grey lace bra- £5

There are tons of pjs I want from Primark, including snoopy ones. The night wear is the best part of Primark :)

Happy times!

This is just a quick post!

My blog is like a diary so I want to note this down :)

So why am I happy?

I have 3 conditional offers from Universities (One more to go, as I only chose 4 options), I've gone up a cup size ;), my dad just bought me a new bra (Might sound weird to some? haha), my dad just bought my London trip snacks which include BBQ Rib Doritos! anddd the big one is I got a high B in my Psychology test! This may seem like an everyday thing but it's not to me. For the last couple of months, I've been struggling with Psychology and getting really upset about it (You should know, I've mentioned it in every update post!). This goes to show that if I just revise, I can do it :)

Have a good night :D

P.S I'm extremely tempted to open those Doritios! and the wine gums... and the jelly beans. Must. Resist.

Nails Of The Week!

I'm not happy with these photos :/

This is Barry M's Nail Paint in Indigo, one of the newest additions to the family.

This colour is dark, but bright for how dark it is, get me? It has some 'umph' to it.

It's the perfect combination of blue and purple but my camera isn't capturing it well. It's not as blue as the photos suggest.

I realised I didn't have an Indigo or Navy in my collection so off I popped to Superdrug. I went straight to the Barry M stand as they never disappoint!

Barry M also have a colour called 'Navy' but it has fine shimmer and is too dark for what I was looking for.

TRESemmé No Frizz Smoothing Serum

Price: £4.29 or currently on offer 2 for £6 at Superdrug.

'Helps to instantly smooth and calm frizz, leaving hair softer and healthier with great shine. Also helps protect hair before and after drying and helps prevent split ends.'

When I hear the word 'serum' I instantly think 'miracle in a bottle!' as I'm sure most of us do. With those claims ^ this certainly sounds like one.

These products are always hard to review because how do you know it protects your hair before and after drying? and helps prevent split ends? You don't, but you know it's doing something.

I pump two pumps into the palm of my hand and with the ends of my hair, I 'paint' (The ends of my hair are the brush and the serum is the paint, kapeesh?)

You expect a product like this to feel greasy, but it isn't. First of all you think it's greasy, because it's a liquid, but it leaves no greasy residue on your hands.

Instantly, my hair feels extremely soft and feels/looks healthy.

This product just works.

I don't know if it protects my hair or prevents split ends, but I know it's doing something positive and I'm going to continue using it :)

Collection 2000 Extreme 24hour Felt Tip Liners - Review and Swatches

Left to right: Black, Blue, Purple, Teal.

Price: £2.99 each

Collection 2000 say:

Be bold, bright and beautiful!

The fast drying versatile felt tipped pens give your makeup look an instant burst of colour.

Easy-to-apply felt tip nib for all day long lustrous looking eyes.

Set trends with four intense, high powered hues including purple, blue, teal and black.

The felt tip design makes these easy to apply and the colours are highly pigmented (Apart from the black, which isn't as intense as I would like it to be). A quality we all look for in a product is it's staying power and these certainly have that, so much so that these leave a slight stain.

The swatches above show the liners normally, and then the result of rubbing forcefully (No jokes please!) and lastly the result of wiping (Again, forcefully) with a facial wipe. You can see the stain they have left on my arm.

These stains can probably be removed with a lot of force and products, but I don't think this will be good for your eye area.

I love the price, felt tip design, colours, pigmentation, staying power, but not the stain afterwards!

For £2.99 though, I would definitely try these out.

UPDATE: I've been wearing the black and it's so easy to use, lasts all day and doesn't stain, definitely a new favourite :)

Nubar 2010 Preview

This is just a preview because I want to take more photos but couldn't wait to show you!

Nubar 2010 is £6.80 on Feel Unique's website but I had 20% off :)

Swatches:

They're not very good so that's why I want to take more in the next week. The reflective flakes main colours are copper and green but other colours sneek their way in, in certain lighting (Looks pink on my blue nail at the moment)

Gorgeous isn't it?

You will be seeing more of this in the next few days :)
