I was requested to do a nail art tutorial, so I thought I would use some nice new polishes I got recently, and do Colourful French Tips!
The colour polishes I used were Bourjois, and they have both got amazing brushes! With the blue, I only had to do one coat, because the brush would fit the nail to size. The pink was really easy to French Tips with because it had a good angle, instead of a normal brush, which really doesn’t work well with shaky hands!
The Base Coat I used was also a Nail Thickener, but it is recommended for a Base Coat.
(Sorry for the size!)
(Sorry for the size!… Again!)
As you hopefully know, I have been out shopping to get a few products, a few meaning 2! In this review I will be including those 2 products, and also a few others which I already had. So, if you’re thinking of going on a purse friendly Make-Up Haul, keep reading!
MUA Mascara – £1.00 (Shade 4)
I love this mascara! I have had it for a long time now, and it is perfect! I like a natural, but long lash look, and that is exactly what it does. It may be brown, but you wouldn’t tell. The best thing about it, is that it does NOT clump, at all! It seriously doesn’t! I have tried Miss Sporty Studio Lash Mascara, and that was good, but it clumped, and was 5 times the price. For £1.00, you actually cannot go wrong. Even if you do think you really can’t spend again, just do it. It is well worth it, and there are many different colours.
Overall – 10/10 – Nothing wrong with it, it is perfect.
MUA Intense Colour Mascara – £1.00 (Royal Blue)
I have been wanting an eye liner pencil for ages, and I am glad I chose this one. I was going to get black, and play it safe, but I am glad I didn’t. The blue is very strong, but you can blend it really easily so it isn’t so dramatic. It just adds that little bit extra colour, and is great for when you don’t want to wear too much eye shadow. It goes on really well, and is very smooth. It doesn’t drag on the eye, and it comes with a sharpener in the lid, so no need to go out and buy one. This is a bargain!
Overall – 9/10 – It is very good, but maybe a little too strong a colour.
MUA Blusher – £1.00 (Shade 5)
You might think this looks really dark, but I think it is just the picture. I wanted this shade because I have tried Benefit’s Havana, and this gives the same sort of look. It has a pearly colour to it, and it very rosy, but not pink. I think it gives a natural look, but is strong enough to give a boost of colour and shine. It is best blended/applied with fingertips otherwise it will look to strong, and with a brush, it just doesn’t have the same pearly look.
Overall – 8/10 – It is nice, but you need to be careful about the amount you apply.
MUA Lipgloss Tube – £1.00 (Shade 2)
Again, this picture makes it look a lot darker than it is. It is really, a more peachy colour. I usually use it over the top of a Dior lipstick (Rouge Dior, 296 Beige Box Office), because it gives it a really nice shine, it works as a highlighter, and gives it a more metallicy, shiny look. You need to apply this gently, and with a small fingertip/brush, as it is quite strong. It is worth the price, but I wouldn’t necessarily, just buy it (as I got it for a gift).
Overall – 8/10 – Nice, cheap, and good for highlighting.
MUA Review –
Prices – 10/10 – The prices are amazing, and I think their most expensive product is £5.
Quality – 8.5/10 – Very good for the price, but isn’t as good as big brands like MAC.
Overall – 10/10 – Amazing for small budgets, and just for every day make-up, and perfect for cheap gifts!
I love Jumpsuits! I have one from Matalan, and it is amazing! They are very comfortable, and if you want to cover up then they are great! Not very practical at times though…
Two-tone Long Jumpsuit £39.99 (MANGO), HOLLYWOOD Heeled Sandals £40.00 (ASOS), Metal Frame Clutch Bag £18.00 (ASOS), Crop Back Collarless Blazer £65.00 (Topshop), Constellation Eye Palette £12.00 (Topshop) & Blush in Head Over Heels £6.00 (Topshop).
I love doing these posts! I hope you do, because I am going to try and do a lot more! This is a very easy and simple look to do, but if your in need of some inspiration, then take a look below! The link to the skirt I am using is here > Mini Skirt.
This look is super cute! Bright colours and this Jacquard skirt makes it look so Sport Luxe! This outfit was inspired by the Company Magazine task on BINTM last night, because I just loved it!
I love the Embellishment Trend! Just adding touches like the ASOS Collar Tips, is so cute, and makes you stand out from the crowd!
Cream Leopard Print Collar Top £30.00& Brown Leopard Print Studded Slipper Shoes £28.00 (Both from River Island).
If you want to look Simple & Chic, then this is the look for you! No accessories are needed, because the shoes & the collar, are quite enough!

One of the biggest events at the moment, is the V Festival, and I thought I would share my views on what the celebrities are rocking!
Kelly Brook
I think Kelly rocks this floral and paisley print dress. It is very feminine, and she gives it a vintage twist with these white boots!
Billie Piper
Billie works this pyjama style jumpsuit really well! If it was like Glastonbury, I don’t think this would be very practical, but at least the grass was dry!
Perry Shakes-Drayton
After the Olympics, Perry is looking fab! I love this denim dress on her, and she is rocking the high bun! I also love her aviator glasses, they look great!
Heidi Range
I think this is the best look! I love the floral print, on the bralet and skirt! I also think that the shape of her glasses, really does look great with her face shape, so if you have a similar shape, then go for those shades!
Tell me what you think by leaving a comment or a tweet! I will be posting a Poll on who looks best, so you can vote then!
I decided to do another ‘Styling for’ post, and I decided to do it for a celebrity, the reason being is because I usually do CSCs, but instead I am going to do my own styling!
Club L Cut Away Bralet £13.00 (Republic), Miso Leggings £8.00 (Republic), Blink Leopard Platform Heels £45.00 (Republic), Violent Lips The Leopard £10.00 (Selfridges) & Nail Rock Leopard £6.65 (Nail Rock).
I love finding Fashion Video Games online which are realistic, so maybe this is another one! Conde Nast a publisher of Vogue and other magazines, have made an App which is based on Catwalk disasters, dealing with the press and all other stresses of a model life. Here’s a screenshot… (Found via The Telegraph).
The App costs 69p and it is suitable for iPhone and iPad, but I am not sure whether it is worth it! If you have the money on your Apple account, then I guess give it a shot! If you do want to buy it, it is called ‘Fashion Hazard’.
