Andrea Fulerton Nails, and a Rhinestoned phone case!

Hello readers of mine!

How are you all doing this chilly February day?

Although I have not been blogging much recently, I have still been reading a lot of blogs

and this nail varnish by Andrea Fulerton caught my beady eye!

Its the trio layering system in the colour petrol and water,

and I absolutely larrrfff it!

It was £7.99 from superdrug and I think it was well worth it.

You put the base coat on which is a kinda blacky muddy colour,

which I don't really like on its own,

but once you put the shimmery topcoat on it totally transforms!

It looks turquoise in some lights as above

and its a bit purply in other lights,

almost like a duochrome!

Also its lasted so so well,

seriously I have had it on nearly a week, 

and there is just a bit of tip wear, and next to no chipping

I'm super impressed,

nothing lasts that long on me!

I'd love to try the other colours but reports so far show 

 the others just are not as good as this colour combo!

Also I've been meaning to show you for forever,

do you like my phone case?

I did it myself using the same technique I used in one of my very first posts

for rhinestoning the front of converse!

I love its tacky goodness,

I did it about 6 months or more ago and its still going srong!

have you tried and of the Andrea Fulerton range?

do you love a tacky phone case?

let me know in the comments below!

Barry M Giveaway!!! NOTD, and Mac new arrivals!

Hey lovely readers of mine

still major busy in milly land

but I just had to show you this!

First off,

I bought quite a bit from mac this week

I've been super excited about the mac venomous villains collection for ages
 so just couldn't resist when it came out!


I bought:
Nail Varnish: Mean  and Green
Nail Varnish: Bad Fairy
Nail Varnish: Formidable
Magically Cool Liquid Powder: Truth and Light

Mineralize Eye Shadow Duo: She Who Dares

as well as

Mac Face & Body Foundation in C1

Now I'm not going to do swatches etc as You've probably seen them all already!

Suffice to say I'm pleased with everything

Also I jumped on the band wagon

and bought Barry Ms Instant Nail Effect Nail Varnish

Now I'm sure you'll have seen this before too
but maybe not this combo?
Here is Barry M Nail Effects applied on top of Mac Villains Mean and Green
Amaze no?


Just one tip for the mac duo chromes,
apply 3 or 4 thin coats
I was pretty disappointed at first, but found with a few thin coats they look really effective

And then whilst having a play today I applied Barry M Nail effects over the top
I love the effect!
Make sure you read the instructions though,
just one quick coat with no overlapping
and then it transforms in front of your eyes!

I love the cracked effect
it looks different on each nail and my hands don't quite match,
but I don't really mind that as it looks like it took ages to do
and it really didn't!

I also applied a clear topcoat after as it dries quite matte,
and then voilà done!


I picked up one for you guys too,
as I know they are becoming a bit elusive

YAY GIVEAWAY!


To enter please comment below
I will draw the winner at random on Tuesday the 26th of October
so you only have 2 weeks!


hope you enjoyed this post,
I shall try and remember to take outfit pics soon!

New Arrival: Mac Haulidge! + NOTD

Good evening ladies!

I'm going to start by showing you my first ever nail of the day!

It's Nude Beige by models own, and I love it!

I quite like the mannequin hand look, and I'm loving concealer lip too lol!

Models own polishes tend to be really good, they hardly ever chip on me,

will deffo be going back for more!

Oh and the reason I've never done a NOTD before,

is because I have pretty diddy stumpy nails, and child hands!

Done even get me started on my thumb nails!

anyway

Onto the Haul!

(pic heavy)

This is the order that greeted me today!

I found it so hard to choose what to get!

In the end I chose the Beauty Powder in Shell Pearl,

I bought it to use as a blusher cos I'm pretty pale

The packaging is just too cute!

Its a lovely colour peachy and shimmery,

although I'm super red anyway, I've recently started to wear foundation

which just washes me out completely

So this should give me a bit of colour back!

As me and some of the girlies discusses in the comments of my foundation review!

I also got a lipstick in Blooming Lovely

Its a yummy mauvey colour,

a bit gagaesque!

It looks quite a bit lighter than this in R.L

Aswell as the lipstick and the face powder

I bought 2 of the Pearkglide eyeliners

and one Greasepaint stick

This is A Pearlglide Eyeliner in Blackline

Its black with a old gold shimmer, totally unique

I also got a pearlglide eyeliner in Industrial!

which is seriouslt the most amazing colour ever!

so hard to describe

uber shimmery teal blue,

kinda fairy like!

The swatches on temptalia show these tons better!

Temtalia's Pearlglide Swatches

Last But not least

I got a Greasepaint Stick in Dirty

which is a brown taupe, with a stunning multicoloured shimmer!

phew that was a lot!

Here are my swatches,

sorry!

I tried my best

Top is with flash,

bottom with natural light!

I love everything I bought

wish I would have bought some lip markers too

but not enough funds!

do you own anything from these collections??

what do you think of the mannequin hands look??

and do you know anyone with funny thumbs like me?

I'm thinking of starting a support group :P
