Festivities In A Snapshot

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you all!

Before all the decorations and the tree comes down I wanted to share a few pictures from over the festive period. 

What did you all get up to over the season?

Lots of Love,

Nars - Sin

The first time I saw this blush was on Miss Budget Beauty's Blog ever since then I have been desperate to try it! It's a gorgeous shade of pink. Before receiving it the other week I hadn't actually seen it in real life but thought I would just go for it anyway, I certainly wasn't disappointed when it arrived. 

 I love the Nars make up packaging but I do find that it can get dirty with finger prints really easily. The blush itself is beautiful shade of rosey pink with a hint of sparkle but not too much - small little flecks. Its not the easiest to blend but can be built up to the level of blush you like. 

Lots of Love,

Midnight Mistletoe

Ohh so very sparkly! 

I love festive nails! Well actually I love everything Christmassy - festive nails is just one of the things I love. Red is a classic Christmas colour and something that I'll always go back to. Today I wanted to add a little twist with this glitter bomb nail polish "Midnight Mistletoe" from Rimmel London.

I bought this last year but noticed Rimmel are still selling them on the Boots website. I'm not sure if they have been re-released or if they have been available all year round; either way they are definitely worth the £3.99 price tag. Boots also have a 3 for 2 offer on just now so you don't have to chose just one glittery nail polish!    

The Nails Inc polish is called "Big Red Apple" and was a free gift in a Glamour magazine. I can't seem to find it on their site; it was possibly an exclusive to Glamour but this St James nail colour also from Nails Inc looks very similar. 

Expect to see some more festive nails before the big day!

Lots of Love,

Define Good...

Define Good...What a name! A lot of the time I buy nail polish because of it's name, this was definitely one of those times. Also because it's Christmassy and if you hadn't guessed by now I LOVE Christmas! 

This polish was from China Glazes Twinkle Christmas Collection 2014 but it is still available here from Amazon. This nail colour is very matalic and sparkly - which I love! The colour pay off is great near enough opaque with just one coat which makes it a good choice if you are in a rush but want some colour on your nails. With the Essie Super Duper Strong Top Coat the colour last for about four days without chipping which is pretty good! This is the first China Glaze polish I have used before and I would buy from them again. 

Lots of Love,

P.s We put up our Christmas Tree last night which I wanted to share with you.
