Barry M Nail Paint 337 Pink Silver Glitter


Barry M has recently launched new nail paints and this is one of them.There were about three or four new nail paints but this one caught my eye.
If you love pink or silver and love glitter, then this is perfect for you. Thats because this nail paint is full of pink and silver glitter particules. The glitter is micro which means you will not get patchy glitter all over your nails but an even application of glitter. The application is quite sheer, so for the full effect then you will need two or three coats and the texture is quite rough feeling. Like the feeling of putting glitter on your nails, its not the smooth texture you would feel for a non glitter nail polish.

For me, the nail paint started to chip off after two days but thats because I do a lot of typing for work. So for other people, it might take longer to chip off. It didnt last long for me and I also used a top coat to protect the nail paint to make it last longer but obviously it didnt work.



You do get 10ml or 0.35 fl oz which is quite good for £2.99. You can get this nail paint from Superdrug and Boots now. I will leave links below for boots and superdrug online.

Pink Diamante Heart Necklace - New Look

I was around my friend's house last week and I saw she was wearing this necklace. It caught my eye and could not stop looking at it because it is soo beautiful and something that I havent got in my collection of necklaces. I asked her where she got the necklace from and she said New Look.

I love New Look and I went into my local New Look store and found this necklace. I was over the moon I found it and I have literally fallen in love with it. Its a heart with different coloured diamantes such as pinks, purples, whites, blues, golds and muticoloured. The other side is just hollow but wow what an amazing, pretty and beautiful necklace and it looks very summery and very in season.

I have covered the diamantes with clear nail varnish to try and keep the diamantes on the necklace and stop them from falling off. The clear nail varnish does not affect the colour or anything to the necklace, it just protects the diamantes.

The necklace costs £4.99 and can get it online or instore in New Look.

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.

L'oreal Lumi Magique Foundation And Primer/BB Sample!

L'oreal recently launched their new foundation Lumi Magique into shops and the feedback i have seen, has shown that this foundation is quite good. However it is quite pricey for a drugstore foundation, so having a sample of the foundation before you buy is a great idea.

As i said, L'oreal are currently still giving out samples of the lumi magique foundation and there is a surprise when you open the sample package. You will also get a sample of their primer/BB cream.This is quite nice of them since i had no clue that i was going to recieve another sample along with it.

If you want a sample of the new Lumi Magique foundation then please follow this link which directs you to the page :)

The Colgate Maxwhite One Toothpaste Challenge!!

Anyone heard of the Colgate maxwhite one? Apparently this toothpaste really makes your teeth a shade whiter in a week. Well this is what i read on the internet reading customers reviews on this toothpaste and i thought i might as well try and see if what they say really does work, or its just another toothpaste which says it makes teeth whiter but it doesnt do anything apart from making your breath smell nice.

I dont know how long this toothpaste has been out on the market but i was going around Tesco and i saw this. I have tried so many whitening toothpastes that claim they whiten teeth but they never do. Colgate maxwhite one, states that this toothpaste can make teeth one shade whiter in one week!. I looked on the internet for reviews and people have said that it even makes teeth one shader whiter in 3 days. This looks pretty interesting and had to try it out.

I will use it for one week, 3 times a day which is the instructed number of uses and will see if this toothpaste makes my teeth whiter in one week. I will do another post on this after the week is up, to review and see if the toothpaste works or not :) x-x
