NOTD - Sparkles

Hello all !

I apologise for my lack of Blogging, due to family reasons and birthday I've been quite preoccupied. But I'm back and have lots and lots to share with you all!

It was my 18th on Friday and so for the momentous occasion I decided to pimp up my nails.
Models Own is a brand I had never tried until now, however reading lots of amazing reviews I knew I had to get my hands on some and add it to my ever-expanding nail varnish collection. Having read Holly's review on Pink Fizz I had made up my mind about which type of varnish I wanted.
I headed on over to ASOS, my favourite online retailer and had a quick look at the several Models Own varnishes. I immediately spied Disco Mix and fell head over heels with the bright, attracting colours. Luckily for me it was reduced to £4 and with an exclusive 10% off I had, it made the total price £3.60 inc P&P - bargain!!
I used the glitter varnish in two different ways - a simple everyday look and a party look. The glitter is is quite opaque which means it needs a good 2/3 coats to get full coverage.

Have you tried any Models Own varnishes?

Blog Sale Haul

I'm more than certain a lot of you will be familiar with the wonderful Charli from http://www.charli-dot-dot-dot.blogspot.com/! Well recently she had a Blog Sale and always keen on saving a few pennies I had a look and found these beauties were still for sale. I have never tried ELF before as I am a typical tight arse and hate paying for P&P and so when I saw she had three cute colours on offer I snapped them up within a heartbeat. The beautiful pastel lemon caught my eye as I haven't got any yellow nail polishes and thought why not! Both ELF colours can be seen worn in this post. Charli had also added a bit of personal touch to the packaging by drawing on cute doodles, what a babe!

NOTD - Gone a bit dotty!

Iya Girlies! 

Just a quick shout out to a Blogging newbie Chelsea, cotton-sox.blogspot.com who has recently become a new fellow Beauty&Fashion Blogger. Please head on over to have a look and a follow! 

Here are my nails today, fancied something different and thought why not jump onto the whole 'Spotty Nails' bandwagon! Used a kirby grip to do the dots, personally think it's turned out quite well. The base colour looks a lilacy colour but its really a grey with lilac undertones, damn you lighting! Also went for the 'Index a different colour' look and decided to use pink (Cancer awareness month! - Hope you're all sporting a bit of pink!)
