A few of my favourite things

It's been quite a while since I updated you on my current favourites, now i won't make this a November favourites as I don't have enough of each specific genre to show you. But I do have a few bits and bobs that I've been loving and have been making me happy!

First being this beautiful turquoise set of teardrop studs that I purchased as a pack of 3 from Topshop they were originally £10.00 but they were on sale for £3.00! Amazing, for such an elegant looking piece.

Next being my new Autumn/Winter scent. The Ghost eclipse fragrance, I have run dry on my sample size so I had to go out and purchase a full size bottle. RRP: £24.99

Lastly being the lipstick I have been adoring over the past few weeks, it is by MAC and it is called All fired up. It is a beautiful true to colour dark fushia pinky and it applies matte (yet moisturising) and amazingly opaque! RRP: £15.50

That's all folks, only a few bits to show you today! Hope you enjoyed today's mini post!

Manicure Mondays | DIY 3D Manicure

Over the past couple of days I've been completely obsessed with looking on Pinterest at nail art designs especially 3d nail art. Now I wasn't too impressed with the prices of these ever so popular manicures, so I decided to recreate my own and compared to Ciaté prices, making your own was cheap as chips!

(Pictures don't do it justice, it is stunning and I'm in love!)

I found my inspiration for this one day wondering around the Topshop makeup section and discovering their new Glitter pots supposedly used on the body and face but I thought it would make my nail center piece! And boy does it look angelic! All I did was apply 2 coats on a baby pink opaque polish, a light sheer pearly polish and then dipping my ring finger into the Glitter pot, finishing off with a coat a glossy top coat. 

Products I used and prices - 

Essie; Fiji - £9.99 buy here

Perl polish??? (Sorry!)

Glitter Pots; Periwinkle - Topshop £4.00 buy here

Nails Inc; Save the nail - £5.00 buy here

Hope you enjoyed my first mini Diy!

Post soon!

Manicure Mondays; Think Pink!

As a big lover of the warmer weather in spring/summer it will come as no supprise to you that my favorite colours are any pastel shades in particular this very cute and girly pastel pink. Even though the weather here in England is still pretty miserable I like to pretend its spring by making my nails all bright and beautiful.

Polishes used:

Two coats of Essie's Fiji nail polish which is a bright opaque colour within 2 coats and is super handy when your in a rush and your not wanting to paint on more than two coats. I've always been a lover of Essie and this was probably one of my first shades from their collection that I purchased. You can buy this beautiful colour HERE for £7.99 per bottle.

One coat of Barry M's sparkle top coat in Pink Irridescent, about 4 years ago Barry M nail paints where my absolute favorite nail polishes and at only £2.99 per bottle could you blame me for buying the whole collection... This is a well loved and used polish but it still gives amazing results even though it is rather gloopy, half empty and 3 years old. I may need to go down to Boots and repurchase this shade! Purchase this glitter polish HERE.

And lastly as no surprise I finished off my manicure with my trusty Seche Vite top coat at a eye watering price of £15.99 per bottle I can just about justify spending that sort of money on this product as it works wonders on my nails and prevents the polish from chipping for nearly a week at a time which is fabulous. You can buy this top coat HERE.

Post soon!
