Free Ciate Nail Polishes in Marie Claire

Ciate nail polishes are very popular but also very expensive. They are not as expensive as Opi since one nail polish costs 9 pound and one nail polish from Opi is 11 pound. Anyway,  in the July's issue of marie claire, there will be three ciate nail polishes you can choose from for free.


There is a hot pink one called Jelly Bean and the other two are a lilac/purple colour and a nude/pink colour. These are all for the summer season and only being released with marie claire. You will not be able to get these nail polishes anywhere else but this magazine and it will be limited edition.

Marie claire costs 3.70 pounds and the ciate polish usually costs 9 pound, so you do get a bit of saving which is brilliant.

I do love this hot pink nail polish because its pink and it has a blue sheen running through the polish which looks amazing and so pretty.

Get your free Ciate nail polish in july's edition of marie claire in all supermarkets and other stores

First Thoughts on : Maybelline colour tattoo 24hr in Eternal Gold

So the colour tattoo cream eyeshadows have been around in the us for a long time and everyone mentioned how great these products are and there is such a hype around them. But when they came to the UK over a month ago, everyone loved them and they literally sold out in boots and superdrug. I found it pretty hard to find eternal gold for a while because it was sold out completely.

I watched videos where people were saying that eternal gold is the most beautiful gold colour they have ever seen and its something that they havent had before. I have got to say that i completely agree with what they have said because the colour is so beautiful and its not a colour that i have in my collection.

In the pot, it looks really bright, shimmery gold colour and when you apply it to the lids, some of the colour base does fade but the amount of shimmer you get is unbelievable. It looks like foil on your lids and its the most beautiful colour for the summer.

I havent properly tried it out and see if it really does stay on your eyes for the whole 24 hours and how quickly it fades but from just swatching it and applying it to my lids, i am pretty amazed and going to buy more of these cream eyeshadows :D

First Thoughts on the Revlon Lip Butters!!

So there has been a lot of hype around the Revlon lip butters for a while now since they got released in the US about 8 months ago or something like that. Anyway everyone has been raving about this product on youtube and blogs. The lip butters were released in the UK about 2 months ago and i found these hard to find since everyone went out and bought them. Took me a while to find but i did finally tracked some down and i bought three.

I went onto my local boots and they stocked the lip butters. There were a range of lip butters from brights to nudes and i think they had about 8 shades to choose from. But looking on the boots website, they have 14 shades in total. Anyway i bought 3 lip butters since they were on offer 3 for 2 at boots at that time. The lip butters are all pink shades because i prefer pink to any other colour. The 3 that i have are Sweet Tart, Cotton Candy and Strawberry Shortcake.

First off, i love the packaging, i love the design on the front of it because its a nice and its a fishnet design which makes it more interesting rather than just a plain boring packaging. The packaging seems quite secure and not going to fall apart quickly. It's quite hard to get the packaging away from the lip butter, which is a good thing because it keeps the lip butter secure.

Sweet tart is a quite bright pink and properly the most pigmented out of all 3. Cotton candy is the lightest out of all 3 and this one to me looks like it has a gold sheen going throughout the lip butter. Strawberry shortcake is sort of like Sweet tart but a lot lighter in colour.

I havent really tried them out that much so i cannot give a review but i can say from using the lip butter a few times, they seem moisturising but quite hard to apply evenly. I think that they are ok but not over the moon with them but i think i need to give them a proper workout in order to have a proper review.
