OPI start to finish

OPI start to finish- Boots £13.25

A while ago my nails went through a stage of feeling really weak and limp probably from all of the painting my nails i do and then a lot of the time i'm really naughty and tend to peel my nail varnish off. They were so weak that i could bend the tips of my nails down (ew!) but i received this for christmas and it's an absolute god send and i can tell this is going to be a holy grail product of mine for ages and ages. I use this as a base coat and also when i don't have any colour on my nails, which is only really during the week as i'm not allowed to wear nail varnish to school. It has made a noticeable difference to my nails and i can't bend them at all anymore. My nails also look a lot more healthier and grow that little bit quicker. I think that the price is definitely worth it, if your like me and love to take care of your nails!

Elegant Touch Rapid dry spray

Rapid Dry for nails: Boots £3.05

This product is an absolute god send! It makes my life SO much easier when i've just painted my nails, i dont have to worry about needing the toilet but smudging my freshly painted nails at all. When ive finished painting both of my hands i spray this over all of my nails, it says it dries them in 60 seconds but i wait for about 5-ish minutes just to be sure it's had time to work it's magic. Im not saying this spray completely freezes the nail varnish and is instantly dry enough for the polish to not smudge or anything. You still have to be wary and careful with what your doing with your nails, but the Rapid spray just protects it that little bit more. After i've waited for that it do it's thang, i REALLY REALLY lightly dust a tissue over my nails as the spray leaves a horrible oily residue on the fingers and nails which your topcoat wont stick to. The spray also leaves a matt sort of finish on the nails so thats why i always apply the top coat after spraying my nails with this.

MAC Chatterbox Lipstick

              MAC Lipstick in Chatterbox: £14

There's so many lipsticks that I want at the moment but Chatterbox has been at the top of my list since I saw Tanya Burr wearing it and I immediately wanted it. Chatterbox is one of those products that once you've applied, you instantly feel better about yourself! Its a lovely blue toned warm Pinky colour that i think would suit most skin tones. When I want more of a noticeable, bolder lip colour I just apply it as normal but on days where I want the same sort of colour but just to be a bit more subtle I just work it into the lips with my finger and it still gives a great colour pay off.

Whats your favourite MAC lipstick?

MAC Studio Finish Concealer SPF 35

Seeing as I'm such a Concealer fanatic i don't know why I haven't bought this Concealer before! The Concealer is described as a lightweight, creamy, full coverage Concealer, and that it is! It's so concentrated and pigmented that the tiniest bit can provide completely opaque coverage and it can even supposedly cover tattoo's... wowzaa! It's also enriched with Vitamin A and Vitamin E and contains Silica which absorbs the skins oils (this concealer is pretty much amazing basically). I'm between and NC20 and NC30 in MAC but i always go with NC20 as it'a always better to go lighter than darker. I apply this with my fingertips but sometimes when i feel the need to blend it out even more i'll just use a 217 brush which does the job perfectly!

Christmas Wishlist

Yay it's this time of the year again! Christmas is my favourite thing ever, theres nothing better than cozying up on the sofa and watching Christmas films with a nice mug of Hot Chocolate. So these are a few things that i've asked for, for Christmas:

1. Nars Lauguna Bronzer- This seems to be a favourite with everybody and i've been meaning to purchase this for ages!

2. Mac Mineralize Skinfinish in 'Soft and Gentle'- Another thing that i've been meaning to buy and everybody also seems to love.

3. River Island Watch- I've asked for this in Rose-Gold but it's not on the website anymore in that colour. Im hoping to get a Michael Kors Gold watch for my Birthday so i thought this would be a good alternative in Rose-Gold.

4. Ted Baker Makeup Bag- I'm in need of a new makeup bag and this one is just too irresistible.

5. Benefit Coralista Blush- I saw Tanya Burr using this in one of her tutorials and i've wanted it ever since!

6. Mac 217 Brush- This seems to be an essential to all makeup artists and beauty gurus on Youtube and i want to start experimenting with eye shadows more.

7. Real Techniques Core Collection- Another thing that i've been wanting for ages and i just fancy some new brushes!

8. Topshop Nail Polishes in Plume, 3D and Razzmatazz- I'm a big fan of the Topshop Nail Polishes and these are just the nicest colours ever!

9. Zara Bag- I really wanted a new classy black bag that I can wear on my arm or over my shoulder and this bag is perfect.

10.vViva La Juicy La Fleur- The original Viva La Juicy is my favourite fragrance in the whole world so I'm sure i'll love this as well.

What are you asking for, for Christmas this year?

Have an amazing Christmas and I hope Santa brings you what you all wished for!

Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish Hot Cloth Cleanser Starter Kit

John Lewis- 100ml £14.25

There has been so much hype over this cleanser for ages and quite a few beauty bloggers and Youtubers have included it in monthly favourites and generally raved about how amazing it is. Seeing as i had just ran out of my Clarins Cleansing Milk it was a convenient time to be trying out a new Cleanser. As i said in my last post my skin has just been looking horrible and dull recently so i really wanted to try something new that was really going to help my skin, without it breaking the bank.

The starter kit comes with the 100ml Cleanse and Polish as well as 2 muslin cloths. I actually bought my one from Boots in the Shepherds BushWestfield but as Boots don't sell it online, I hunted it down at the cheapest price possible from a convenient store. I think mine may have been about £19, I'm not to sure. But anyways I saw that John Lewis are selling for around £14 which is amazing!

The cleanser has really combated my mix between dry patches whilst having an oily T-zone as it has Eucalyptus in to soak up any oilyness and Cocoa Butter to nourish dryness. It gives my skin so much moisture, after I've just cleansed I'm constantly stroking my face because it just feels so amazingly soft like feathers! Even though this Cleanser does remove eye makeup (very well!) i also find that i have to use a cotton bud and Eye Makeup Remover right on my lash line to get every last bit of it off. I use my Clarins One-Step Cleanser before just to get the top layer of makeup off, then use one pump of The Cleanse and Polish on the back of my hand and massage it all over my face and down my neck, until it gets really thick and I can't rub it in anymore. Then i take my muslin cloth which has been in relatively warm/hot water and literally just wipe off my makeup. It's so simple and i find that it gets rid of all my makeup with just one pump.

I LOVE this cleanser so much and I can already tell it's going to be a favourite of mine for a very long time!
