<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I hope you have all been well and made the most of your summer?? Here's a quick recap of mine: end of year uni exams (including copious amounts of blood, sweat and tears) - results (more tears but mostly of joy and relief) - graduation -</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> vacation - crazy family madness - catching up on Breaking Bad (someone hug me and tell me I will survive when it ends) - vacation again - crazy family craziness again (yeah, they'r a wacky lot) - beginning a new course. :)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Phew.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Yup, all that and more was the story of my life this summer. I can't believe how quickly it went though, I was on an adrenaline rush every single day! My results were such a shocker - I got a First! Woop! - and now after all the</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> madness has passed I am about to start</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> a new course by the Princes Trust which should be really amazing and a lot of hard work too. Its exciting and scary at the same time but i'm really looking forward to it! :) </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So right now i'm taking a bit of a breather just before my course starts. Aaaaah, that feeling of relaxation...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I can't wait to hear all about how your holidays went! Let me know what you got up to :)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">For today I bring you a super funky nail art kit by Nails Inc -</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Skulls and Leather Bling It On! This sort of stuff is exactly what I live for. Its shiny, its pretty, its daring, its blingy, its different! I completely love it.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The set comes with a Nails Inc Leather Effect polish in Tan, 4 skull embellishments, a nail glue and an </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">orange stick.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Here's how I used the kit:</span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The nail polish was effortless to apply and glided on like butter. It went on smooth then dried down fairly quickly into this gritty, leather effect. I didn't use any topcoat as I wanted to keep the textured effect. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">To apply the skull I simply dotted on a blob of glue on my nail and a blob on the back of the skull, waited a couple of seconds and then stuck the two together. Just as a warning, don't do what I did and use fingers to apply the skull... please don't do it! Use tweezers as the instructions say! The glue is extremely strong, like superglue, and I almost got my thumb and index finger stuck together permanently because I wasn't careful! =/ Ouch!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">To remove the skull you simply dip the nail in acetone and that will melt the glue away so </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">you can reuse it anytime again. Yay!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Overall I adore this kit as its a super simple and easy way to create a really bold and edgy look. The skull stayed put exactly where I applied it for the entire time I had this polish on, which was about 3 days. I did have to be a little more careful than usual to make sure it didn't get caught on anything and snag off, but once its on you get used to it being there.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This neat little kit can be bought <a href="http://www.qvcuk.com/Beauty/Nails-Inc" target="_blank">here</a> and <a href="http://www.qvcuk.com/qvc.product.203267.html?sc=BazaarVoice" target="_blank">here</a>.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So sorry again for vanishing - May is just ridiculously crazy for me! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This is the time of year when everything becomes completely insane and I end up losing more than a brain cell or two. Birthdays and exams and assignments and final year dissertations all rolled up into one month! MADNESS!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Anyway, since its my Birthday today (i'm 21! yay!) I thought i'd take a little bit of a break and catch up with you lot again. =)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Here's my nails as they were painted a while ago... my birthday notd doesn't really exist as my nails are naked at the minute! I honestly haven't had any time recently to do them up properly. After my exams however, I plan on dolling them up with cupcakes, sprinkles, you name it, so i'l show you guys what I come up with soon. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">For now though, please enjoy this random and crazy design which I shall name "the fake birthday notd" =)</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Yeah I was feeling a little funky the day I did these =P </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">These pictures do no justice to this amazing polish by China Glaze however, as anyone who owns this beauty will realise! Flip Flop Fantasy, in real life, is incredibly neon and eye watering-ly bright. Also its more orange than my pictures depict. Gosh its such an incredible polish and I think everyone should try it out at least once in their lives! You certainly won't regret it! (Quick shout out to the fab Eileen of <a href="http://sneakerette.blogspot.co.uk/" target="_blank">Lac Lac</a> who got me this beauty!)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It makes my hands look so blooming tan! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Er yeah, so for the design, I used an ebay striper pen in black and silver to get the leopard design, and then used triangle rhinestones, also from ebay, to fill in the empty nails. To finish off I placed black dots using the striper pen around the rhinestones. And et voila, super easy and eye catching! </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Apologies for the disappearing act - I've been pretty stressed recently with my Uni workload. Its assignment after assignment and then suddenly the exams are going to start. So yeah, welcome to the ridiculously intense world of a final year student. Thank God its going to be over soon!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Anyway, I thought today i'd show you all these pretty little matte lip creams from Collection 2000; which me and the rest of the beauty blogging world it seems, are rather fond of.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I bought them a good while ago, right in the middle of all the hype surrounding them. And I have to say, they really are worth the praise.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Angel Delight is a muted pinky brown shade which again, is very wearable and is a must have for natural looks.</span></div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I love the texture of these as they'r matte creams which smooth on easily and are very silicone based so feel like a primer. Soft and velvety. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I like wearing them over a bit of balm or gloss as alone the colour is heavier and I prefer a slightly glossy look. But whichever way you wear them, they look gorgeous. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The only thing I personally don't like about these is the smell. Its a toffee/fudge/caramel scent which is not my kind of thing at all! But luckily it doesn't linger, so that's alright I guess =)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I wish they came out with more colours as there are only 4 available at the moment and two of them weren't to my tastes. Its very difficult to find a decent matte lip cream at such a brilliant price (only £2.99 I believe) so a more varied shade range would be very much appreciated.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Have you tried any of these out? Which shades top your list or are they a miss?</span></div>

Hope you'r doing well? :)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Recently i'v been extremely busy with catching up with friends and family and also trying to shift my pile of Uni work down so I can get it over and done with and then concentrate on revision for my upcoming exams.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Eeek, time just seems to be zooming past! In just over a month, i'l be finished with Uni altogether! Gosh.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">After getting a presentation done and dusted, I decided to reward my hard work with a bit of me-time, and of course, that meant pampering my nails! =D</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Here's what I came up with after a bit of umm-ing and aah-ing over what design to do and what colours to use.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I painted my nails in Color Club's Where's the Soiree and then stamped over it in Barry M's Gold Foil. Finally I mattified the whole look using Rimmels Matte Topcoat.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This zebra pattern has got to be my all time favorite stamping design ever! Everywhere I went with this mani, someone stopped me and asked to get a closer look! :)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">What are some of your favorite, go-to colours and designs when it comes to nails? </span><br />

Its one of the most effortless types of blusher out there - easy to apply, foolproof, looks perfect and lasts all day long. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">There was a time when I used to hate anything cream based, due to the fact I have combo/oily skin which makes anything creamy melt right off my face. =/ Eew.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So when I choose cream products, I make sure they are the kind which dry down to a powder finish, don't look dewy on my skin and are packed with pigment.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Most cream blushers, although pretty and so easy to use, are a no-go for me as they lack the qualities which I need for them to last on my skin.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Topshop however, have perfected their cream blush formula down to a tee, making it ideal for any skin type, but especially oily skin which is usually frightened of creams!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I own 4 altogether and love every single one equally... seriously don't make me choose just one! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I've owned each one for over a year now, so excuse the grubbiness =) </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Oh and yeah, I lost the box for one of them... *sighs*. Am I the only person who keeps the boxes products come in?! I can't help it... I need to have them!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The reason I love these cream blushers over the others I've tried, is because they have a cream-to-powder finish, so they dry down perfectly matte and don't budge throughout the day. The colours are also mega pigmented, so only a tiny bit is needed which blends out like a dream. I use a stippling brush or my fingers to apply, usually depending on how much of a rush i'm in!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The way I apply with a brush is to dab the bristles in the product and then dab onto my cheeks, not swipe. Keep dabbing to build up the colour and then finish by gently sweeping the brush back towards the outer edges of your face.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">With fingers, just load a bit onto finger tips and pat onto cheeks. Keep doing this until you get the intensity of blush you like, and then blend outwards by swiping your finger through the colour you've dabbed on.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The products themselves are incredible and will last me a very long time as so little is needed each time. They both smell lovely and refreshing and are light products which don't weigh my hair down at all. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The Finishing Polish is great at smoothing down a finished style and keeping any fly aways at bay, and the No Oil Oil is wonderful before drying as it keeps hair soft and shiny. Both also offer heat protection which is always a plus!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">A full demo of each product in use can be found <a href="http://www.percyandreed.com/how_to/12-smooth-sealed-and-sensational-no-oil-oil" target="_blank">Here</a> and <a href="http://www.percyandreed.com/how_to/17-quite-frankly-flawless-finishing-polish" target="_blank">Here</a>.</span><br />

Last week was absolute madness with 2 assignments due in on the same day plus another presentation to prep for, but now that its all over and done with, I can finally begin to relax a little.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">For today I thought i'd share with you all the much anticipated MUA Undress Me Too shadow palette, a supposed dupe for the Naked 2 palette.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Whether a dupe or not, its a beautiful palette consisting of cool neutrals in matte and shimmer textures.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This time, MUA have actually named their shadows, which is a nice touch and personally I prefer colours to have names as it makes them seem almost better than if they weren't named!</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The swatches were done without any primer underneath and the shimmer shades were easier to apply than the mattes, which were slightly chalky and took a couple of layers to stand out. However, since there's only 3 mattes in the whole palette, you're not losing too much!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The black, while a little difficult to get opaque, is surprisingly long wearing. After swatching, I took a shower and even after a whole lot of scrubbing the black still remained on my arm after every other colour had washed off! Not sure whether that's a good or bad thing...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The shimmer shades though, are packed full of pigment and glide on like butter. They blend easily and look gorgeous.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Overall this palette is absolutely stunning and its neutral shades with cool undertones make them perfect for easy, everyday wear. I can create endless looks with this palette and its quickly become one of my everyday essentials. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If you aren't sure about splashing out on the Naked 2 as your not sure if you'l even like the colours much, try this one out first. Maybe even get this as a travel substitute for the Naked 2, as its lightweight, compact and perfect for carrying around.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The first 3 were taken with flash and the last one without. Look at the colours in that last shot!! Like holy moly wow or what?!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I did take completely submerged under water pictures too, but they didn't turn out too nicely so I took these ones instead where I just had my nails under a running tap. Where the water hits the polish, it creates an amazing glow that is just mesmerizing to see in real life! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I suggest everyone who is currently wearing a duochrome to run to your nearest taps and be amazed! =P</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I'm so excited to be writing this post right now that I might just pee my pants! Talking of which (lol sorry) feast your eyes on this stunning beauty by Max Factor - yepp, the one and only, Fantasy Fire!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I think there's going to be a LOT of exclamation marks today... I feel the need to over-use them just to express my happiness! - (btw, remember that dreaded presentation I had last week?? Well I scored an A for it! Whoop whoop!) =D</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Anyway, onto the pictures!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Every nail addict has heard of the much coveted Unicorn Pee, aka Clarins 230, right?? (If not, get your butt onto Google right this minute and educate yourself!)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Well this particular Max Factor polish caused quite a stir in the bloggosphere when it was released, as its a pretty much spot on dupe for the mega lusted after Clarins!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Safe to say that when I first heard of this I ran out to the shops to grab myself a bottle or twenty, but alas, they were sold out for weeks on end and my dreams of owning this beauty were crushed. Lol, over dramatic much? Anyway, a good while went by and I had almost forgotten all about this magnificent magic potion in a bottle, until I went randomly strolling into Superdrug one day and caught sight of a couple sitting all by themselves on a stand! I snatched them up instantly, screamed a little, happy danced, jazz handed and then walked out with the smuggest grin plastered to my face.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Yepp. I am one happy bunny.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I mean, just look at it!!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I took about a zillion photos of this, and had a great time snapping away too as I discovered an awesome way to photograph this polish and capture all its crazy, colourful awesomeness. Two words - Under. Water.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Those awesome shots I shall show you all next time. Otherwise this post would be way too picture heavy. Also, i'm just evil like that. ;)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Do any of you own the original Unicorn Pee (if so, I promise I won't hate you forever... maybe... =P) or has this one quenched your lustings? If you haven't managed to nab this one, is it on your wishlist? Do you think its special or just hyped up? Let me know!! I love a good ranting! =D</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Sorry for being absent for a while, I'v had zero time lately! Oh and my oral presentation is TOMORROW! =O Eeepers. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have a ton load of things to blog about, so will hopefully be blowing up your dashboard soon! =P And I have a lot of catching up to do too, so will be visiting everyone's pages asap!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Take a peek at one of the things I will be sharing with you all oh so very soon:</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Yeppp its the stunning Max Factor Fantasy Fire!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I'm in a mega excited/scared/worried mood today and keep shaking like a leaf and having mini spasm attacks for no reason =/ It could be due to the fact that I have my presentation tomorrow and i'm kinda freaked about that, and also that I received some amazing news this morning which had me jumping around like a headless chicken!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">That news i'm talking about came from the lovely <a href="http://sneakerette.blogspot.co.uk/" target="_blank">Miss. Sneakerette</a> when she emailed me letting me know that my end of a swap I did with her reached her this morning! YAY!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If you <a href="http://sara-loves-pretty-little-things.blogspot.co.uk/2013/01/my-friend-deeja-takes-over-and-iv-got.html" target="_blank">read my post</a> a while ago where I ranted on about Royal Mail being completely awful and refusing to send out any packages which contained polish, you'l know why i'm so happy to hear this today!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If you want more details on the company that I used to ship my package through, feel free to email me =] I don't want to post about them in case they too end up banning polish containing parcels! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">On a totally different note, c</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">heck out the last slide of my forensics presentation I will be examined on tomorrow:</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I thought i'd be a little weird and freak my class out =] The artwork (which is incredible, no?) is by this cool dude over on <a href="http://mohzart.deviantart.com/art/Blood-on-Cloak-15844051" target="_blank">DeviantArt</a>.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">These pictures don't show this colours true brightness as my camera always freaks out with neons. Imagine it being a true highlighter yellow with neon green shimmer running throughout. That's what its like IRL.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Also this one is scented and smelt like sugary sweet lemons, which was nice but definitely not good when suffering with a horrid headache =/ Ah well, I'l remember that for the next time I decide to wear it!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Hope you've all had a fabulous week? I have a crap load of assignments due in so very soon and an oral presentation next week which i'm terrified about but I hope you all have a wonderful and much less stressful week than me!!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Repeating the last one at my brothers face annoys him like nothing else! I just love the look I get every time I spit it out mega fast. No stuttering - Result!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Moving swiftly on though... today I wanted to share with you the super duper hyped about Maybelline Colour Tattoo 24 hr Cream Gel Shadow. These are something I was NOT interested in at all when they first came about.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have trust issues with cream eye shadows. They love to crease on me no matter how long lasting they claim to be. So I never go near them.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In fact, it took me a good while to believe that these were worth trying out... so much so I bought my first two just a week ago.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

After a week straight of sporting just these alone on my lids, I feel like they are my bestest friends ever - the only two who never let me down, come rain or shine, they'l stick with me through it all. My God, doesn't that sound soppy?!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I hardly ever have time to spend lots of hours on my makeup in the mornings, and am usually a rushed concealer, powder, mascara out-the-door kind of girl. These shadows are just so effortless to put on that I can easily slick them on and go quickly, without worrying that they'l be a mess by the middle of the day.</span><br />

More MUA!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This time its this gorgeous gloss, which as the name implies, is seriously intense! This little gloss packs mega pigmentation and shine for a pout to be proud of.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I bought the shade Sealed with a Kiss - a fleshy nude with pink tones to it. Its one of those colours that might not suit everyone and has the tendency to make you look a little washed out. So deeper skinned lovelies, beware.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In terms of the gloss quality, its pretty decent. Not too sticky or gloopy, just right. It glides on easily with the applicator, but because of the colour it needs a little smoothing over with a brush or finger or uneven lines do show through.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Overall, I do like this gloss but don't reach for it often as the shade, although mega pretty in the bottle, just doesn't work for me as much as I'd like it to. If i'm ever sporting a super dark smokey eye, then this is what i'l wear on my lips, but only sheered out. Other than then, I don't think this is going to be an everyday essential.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Do you like colours like this? How do you wear them?</span><br />

Yay =]</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So these sponges have been been causing quite a stir in the world of beauty for some time now, but are they actually worth the hype? </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I bought these two Beauty Blender dupes from </span><a href="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Pro-Beauty-Make-up-Blender-Foundation-Sponge-Puff-Smooth-Bottle-Gourd-Water-Drop-/310511471573?pt=UK_Health_Beauty_Make_Up_Cosmetics_Foundation_PP&var=&hash=item484bed0bd5" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;" target="_blank">ebay</a><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">, and after a while of using them I can confirm that they are most definitely worth it! Top 3 reasons I love them - they give flawless results, leave skin breathable and minimal effort is required.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">To use them, wet with water and squeeze until just damp (I like to squeeze the sponge within a towel to get rid of excess water quickly and easily). Then simply dip the bottom of the sponge into whatever base you prefer to use and dab, dab, dab away! Don't swipe like a normal sponge, it doesn't work effectively like that. Once all the dabbing is done, use the pointed end to reach into those smaller areas of the face, like under eyes and around the nose, and et voila, you're done!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I chose to get the tear drop shaped (pink) and bottle shaped (cream) ones, to compare to one another and see if either worked better than the other.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The pink one is softer than the cream one which makes it easier to bounce on the skin and apply makeup more smoothly. The cream one has indents which make it much easier to hold and gives better control when applying foundation. Both give the same finish, but I feel that the pink one achieves these results in a much quicker time than the cream one, probably due to its softness.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I was worried that these sponges, being extremely cheap, wouldn't work too well, be a wrong density, poor quality and that the dye might bleed when washed. However this wasn't the case at all and every fear I had about them ended up being a distant nightmare as soon as I touched them onto my face. These are better than I thought and honestly I don't know why I didn't give into the hype a very long time ago! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If you haven't tried sponges like these, you are missing out big time. Go out there (or not actually out there...) and order these right now!! You need one. Or two. Maybe more.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I can't say how they compare to the original Beauty Blender, since I just couldn't bear the thought of spending £16 on a single sponge... and now that I realise how well these work I'l probably never need to spend that much on one anyway!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Have you surrendered yourself to the Beauty Blender, or a just-as-brilliant dupe of one? If yes, what do you think, worth it? And if not, are you tempted??</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">My amazing friend Deeja came into uni one day rocking these seriously awesome gradient nails so I literally begged her to take photos of them so I could share with all you lot =]</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">She used Accessorizes Bronze and Topshop's Glimmer to create the gradient by applying both polishes onto a sponge and then dabbing onto the nails. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I was surprised to learn that she didn't paint a solid base before doing the gradient - this way it seems to be a much easier and quicker process without any excess drying time! I'l definitely try this technique out soon!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Thank you doll for snapping these gorgeous pictures. I love the colours you used and the way you did the gradient =] Don't you think her nails are so cute?!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Deeja doesn't have a blog (yet ;]) which I could forward you all too, but hopefully she'l make one soon and post amazingness onto it about all things beauty!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">And on a completely different topic, something I'v been ranting about the past few days:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I tried posting a couple of gift and swap packages the other day through Royal Mail and they refused to send them as they each contained nail polish. I was told that from last Monday they changed their security measures and are now mega strict on the sending-polish-overseas rule. I'm actually really upset by this as it could potentially mean I can't complete a swap i'm in the middle of and also that I cannot do anymore in the future. I feel really bad for the person i'm swapping with too as she has spent money on buying the things I want and then shipping it out to me... and I can't send her stuff in return. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Now i'm also worried that the her end of the swap may not even reach me, if these security laws have become so tight recently God knows what could happen! =/</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Has anyone else had the same problem recently? Has anyone found another shipping company that maybe isn't so uptight about polish??</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Please let me know as it could seriously help me out!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Thank you =)</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">She's a felt-tip marker pen who stains lips with a soft berry pink hue, which looks really soft and pretty. I chose the shade Fabulicious, which is one out of three shades available.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The stain lasts for an extremely long time, however it must be topped with a lipbalm/gloss because on its own it is quite drying. Its super easy to apply but does take a layer or two for this particular colour to properly show up. I love that I can just apply it and not think about touch-ups, since I know it'l last me the entire day. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Also worth noting, this one smells of sparkling apple! A nice surprise for me because I wasn't expecting that! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I love this and plan on trying out the other shades soon! Its also a much cheaper alternative to revlons lip stain pens, however if you prefer brighter, more colourful shades, I think the revlons are better suited for you =]</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Have you tried lip stain markers? What do you think of them?</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I''v been ridiculously busy recently and every time I paint my nails I end up forgetting to take pictures of them! But luckily for this design, I managed to capture a few photos late at night, the day before I removed the mani... as it was a week old by this point!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So apologies in advance for not the best pictures, hope you still enjoy the post!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This was my very first attempt at doing a skittles mani, and I was inspired by a dress i'd bought during the boxing day sales. This dress was grey and purple but with flowers, and I decided to stick to the same colours but mix up the design a little more =]</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The polishes used were OPI Siberian Nights (deep, vampy plum) and China Glaze Pelican Grey (subtle shimmery grey). I used a dotting tool for the polka dots and little silver beads for the bow.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Usually my first attempts at anything end up disastrous, but this turned out really well, even though I created it on a complete whim! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I'm so happy with how it turned out and even got a few compliments from random strangers in the street! *blush* =)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">What do you think of these kinds of skittle designs? Ever created any yourself? =)</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Its huge! Easily the biggest sized compact powder type product in my entire collection =]</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The packaging is lovely, sturdy and not cheap looking at all. I especially love the embossed design on the powder, even if I was too afraid of using it at first because I didn't want the design to get messed up! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The shade of this bronzer isn't dark, orange or muddy at all. Its probably the lightest bronzer I own too. But its not so light that it isn't workable! I only use bronzer for contouring or as a very natural blush when I'm in a hurry, and this works amazingly well for doing both.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">However, because it is a lighter shade of bronzer, it probably won't show up much on darker skinned beauties, but for people with fair to medium skin tones this is perfect. I have a light/medium skin tone with yellow undertones and this builds up nicely to the perfect amount of colour I need for natural contouring etc. I think MUA should come out with more shades in this though, its a wonderful formula which would be such a hit with everyone!</span><br />
<br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Bronzed Perfection is a matte bronzer, which is what I always prefer to buy as personally I find shimmery bronzers really strange to contour with. I think i'd end up looking like a total glitter ball with a shimmery bronzer and sparkly hightlighter put on together!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Overall I love this product a lot and recommend it to everyone looking for a decent bronzer which won't break the bank either! Did I mention this was just £3?! Yes really! I love MUA... seriously they are quickly becoming one of my go to brands with all the amazing products they keep releasing! *Hint hint fur nails - which is what I got my mitts on recently! I'm looking forward to trying them out asap and telling all you lot about it as soon as I do!*</span><br />

Everyone wanted them, everyone got them. Almost everyone loved them.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I happened to be sucked in by the hype, but didn't find the need to grab every single shade in the line since they didn't seem all that special.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Honey was the only one which looked unique and like something I didn't already have. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The name honey is unusual for this colour, a pretty vintage rose shade. I mean, am I the only one who expected this name to be given to a nude/bronzy shade?? Lol ok, I admit it... i'm kinda weird like that =P</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Moving on, this is a gorgeous lippy which smells of peppermint! I don't think i'v read anywhere else mentioning this, so when I smelt it after first opening it up, I was surprised!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I do like the smell though, anything minty is right up my alley.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The colour applies sheer if you'd like it to or deeper if you want it to. Its quite versatile like that, but it always remains slightly glossy.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Once the gloss wears off, a light stain is left behind which I love! It's probably more evident with the brighter shades, but this one lets my lips look like they'r subtly shaded with a pink-mauve tint.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I do like these balm stains and the pencil shape makes it fun to work with. I'd love to know what you think of them and which shades you'v tried out, if any =) </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

Living in England it's difficult for me to get my hands on them and I refuse to buy them online as they'r so stupidly expensive when I know they retail for just a few dollars in the US. If I ever do another swap with someone living there, I'l be asking for a few of those egg shaped pretties to be added to my package!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">But for now, my craving for dome shaped lippy has been quenched by the release of these amazing Body Shop festive lip balms. They'r a similar style to the EOS ones, only the inner balm though, as the outer package is much smaller and mushroom shaped. These ones also contain shimmer, which I don't think the EOS one's do.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Altogether there are 3 flavors in the Body Shop balms, and I hauled each one. How could I not with a 3 for 2 going on?!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Lol so the flavors are festive season inspired and I believe these are limited edition. Damn it. They must release more during the future, as these have proved to be quite a hit down here! Two of the flavors had sold out within a few days of them hitting my BS branch.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">All of these provide comfortable moisture but do need to be applied often as they wear off... or in my case, I accidentally lick them off since they taste and smell divine!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Talking of which, the fragrances of each are heavenly! Even if you don't wish to buy these, go and smell them!! Seriously, they'r just incredible. They are quite strong so if you'r sensitive to smells then you might not like them, but I love catching a whiff of it every now and then whilst its on my lips.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I adore these balms and even though the pigmentation isn't that great, I don't mind as its a lip balm after all. They'r so easy to throw into my bag and apply easily wherever and whenever. Its also great surprising everyone around me then I whip one out to use; a real conversation starter as everyone wants to look at it and see what it is!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Any of you lovelies tried these out? What do you think of them? And what about the EOS ones, should I be lusting after them??</span><br />

Right now I'm probably eating something mega unhealthy from an amazing takeaways near my cousins house. He's so lucky to live so close to it, but then again maybe its for the best that I live an entire countries length away, as i'd be there every day if I was anywhere near it! I should be coming back tomorrow, so will hopefully talk to you live once I get home =) Anyway, I really hope that you'l enjoy today's post =]*</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I'm not normally attracted to red polishes. As beautiful as they look when worn I hardly ever reach out for a crimson shade when deciding on what colour to put on. I end up skipping over to my blues and blacks!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">But this gorgeous rosy shade by Barry M is an unusual tone of reddish pink, and along with its magical magnetic performance, its a polish I would turn to again and again.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I absolutely love it!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Also, this is just one coat!! Yes, really! Gosh I adore this polish so much. Its magnet was super easy to work with and created those pretty stripes with minimal effort. Simply perfect.</span><br />
