So we just had a new shop open in our town called Boyes. It is a chain store, and sells things really cheap. They have an awesome makeup/nails section, so here is a small selection of what I got. They all cost £1 each, so absolute bargain!

W7 polish in silver, mauve crackle, purple pearl and diamond clear

LA colors in treasure island, lightning, atomic and circuit

Colorsport 30 day mascara review

So I recently got hold of this product, and having now tried it have fallen in love! The product is super easy to use, and not only does eyelashes, but also eyebrows!


It comes in black and dark brown, but to be honest the black is not severe. I have used it on both my eyebrows and eyelashes, and saw the results instantly. I have even done a video for you, with a brow demonstration.

It is available from Boots for £8.20, which considering it is a years supply is a great price!

So in conclusion, if you are fed up of filling in your brows everyday, or putting on 5 layers of mascara to make them super black, this may be the product for you :)

Missguided Makeup Review


So I have recently become obsessed with a makeup brand called Missguided. It is a UK based brand, but they do ship internationally. http://www.missguided.co.uk/ (take a quick peek!)
They are mainly a fashion site,but they do sell nail polish and lipgloss. I currently have 3 of the 4 lipglosses and 3 of the 8 nail polishes. They also sell eyelure eyelashes and patterned nail wraps.
I do feel like their prices are a little expensive, but they are midmarket. Varnish and gloss are £5 each, but they do do a gloss 4 pack which is £12, saving you £8! They are very good quality, so the price is very reflective of that. 
The gloss is not sticky or oily, and it smells lovely. It also stays put all day, so really £5 is a bargain! The polish is also very nice. You could get away with one coat if you are in a rush, but 2 coats makes it really vibrant. It doesn't chip or peel, so again very much worth the money. I also love the names they have come up with. My favorite is for the teal varnish, which is called Misstique.
 Overall, I am extremely happy with these products, and would love to get more in the future!

Hellcats vs Cyclones

I am currently in the middle of an mTV makeup series, featuring makeup inspired looks from shows. So far I have done Pretty Little Liars, which was a basic neutral eye with browns and blacks, very similar to what the characters wear.
My second and third looks have both been inspired by Hellcats. I have based these looks on the uniforms of the 2 main teams. Hellcats are in blue and yellow, and the cyclones are in blue and white. Both videos are on my YouTube account, so take a peek!

Barry M Nail Varnish

So today I am uploading a new video onto YouTube about my Barry M polish collection. I have recently bought 2 new colours which brought my little collection up to 8.
The colours are (from left to right):262 bright red, 161 vivid purple, 279 (no name as it is old, but you can get a very similar colour), 290 spring green, 315 blue crackle, 296 coral, 150 red glitter, 66 white.

I have done some swatches which look like this:


Some pro's about the polish:
  • It goes on smoothly, 
  • good colour coverage after 2 coats, 
  • doesn't fade/chip easily, 
  • nice packaging, 
  • brush doesn't shed.

Con's about the polish:
  • Goes thick after a few uses, so needs thinning with nail varnish remover, 
  • peels easily off of natural nails (only if a lot of coats have been applied though), 
  • can be hard to replace some colours as they get replaced.

I will continue to buy Barry M varnish as I do love it, especially at the moment as it is 2 for £4.99 in Superdrug!
