Contouring your pretty faces

Review : Sleek Make up Face and Contour Kit 



 I came across this kit at superdrug the other week and i bought it to try out because usually i don't contour my face or nose at all but after checking out bubz and style suzi's videos on contouring it has made me want to contour my face to give the illusion of a slimmer face and a more defined nose.  

Check out the videos here at: 


I LOVE the packaging of this kit, the quality is like a MAC quad palette and this kit only costed £6.50 !!!! BARGAIN  !!!

I got the kit in LIGHT

Shu Uemura EyeLash Curler



This is a MUST-HAVE item to own as it is THE best eyelash curler ever!!! i am not just saying it but honestly, i have the shortest eye lashes ever and i was sooo surprised at how effective the curler were, no wonder the make-up gurus swear by this item =)  

The Shu Uemura Eyelash curler has a rounded sulicone rubber pad that allows for the appropriate amount of pressure to curl lashes naturally, without crimping or bending. 

Why not give it a try? you will not regret buying this ^_^

Instant Nail Effect

Everytime i head into town, i always pop into Boots or Superdrugs to see what new offers they have in store or new products that catches my eye.
Lots and Lots of highstreet make-up brands are bringing out their own "instant nail effects" to their nail varnish line and i have been meaning to try it so i went and bought myself  the Instant Nail Effect Nail Paint by Barry M in "Black Magic" priced at £3.99. 
Black Magic

Barry M also do 3 other shades in their Instant Nail Effect Line:


Pink Fizz 

Blue Print 

White  Frost
Results  


I applied Nails Inc in Brompton Place (170) on my nails, then let it dry for a few minutes.  Then I applied a SINGLE COAT of Instant nail effects on top but make sure you dont overlap as it will not create the cracked effect on your nails. 

Just to take note that light base coat colours may not be as nice as darker tone nail colours as i have tested that out using the Barry M Nail Paint in Strawberry I/C (309) 

I was truly amazed at how it created the cracked effect on my nails as when i coated my nails with the polish, it was as if i was painting my nails in black but soon it started to dry and it created a really nice cracked effect.  Check it out below :)

 I will definitely be purchasing the rest of the other colours :)
