Superdrug's Beauty Card...

Supedrug's beauty card
This card is new the superdrug, and it is free to join up. You register the card online, where you can keep track of how many points you have. If you are familiar with boots advantage card, this is an similar concept. As, personally i switch between shopping in boots and superdrug, this is ideal for me. As, Superdrug tends to be cheaper than boots. You may spend the points you save up i believe on other products, which saves some money! I think if this is available to you, you should get one and its completely worth it, and only takes seconds to sign up!

The Good And The Evil...♥

China Glaze-Awakening


Barry M- Pink Flamingo
China glaze nail polishes have got a reputation to be incredibly good, this is what persuaded me to purchase one. They retail at about £6-£8 in the UK. Also, i picked up a trustworthy Barry M nail paint. I generally always love Barry M nail vanishes as at £2.99, they are incredibly cheap and an incredible quality. Out of these two nail vanishes, i wanted one perfect for this type of whether. They may be total opposite shades. China glaze is an two tone colour, with a mix of purple and gold. Whereas, Barry M is what i describe as an 'Barbie Pink', its pure pink with a coral undertone to it. Surprisingly, i HATED china glazes, with such the hype around their nail vanishes, i was shocked at the result. After 3 coats, the colour (Awakening) still didn't completely covered my nail, the liquid was just to thin, and as i tried to build up the colour, it took hours to dry, literally about 4hours just because i couldn't get a colour pay off. Then i also tried Barry M's, it was totally brilliant, as always. Within two coats of the colour (Pink Flamingo) my nails look fabulous, and super summery. Once again, Barry M's comes out on top, and even though i don't completely strike out China Glaze, i shall wait until their is an colour i fall in love with!♥

17Blusher Review...♥


I recently bought one of the 17 blushers and was completely surprised by the outcome. For years, i stayed away from 17, as i have had bad experiences from their company such as reactions and the products just being bad quality. As, i said i was totally taken back by this Blusher.



Its in the colour 'First Kiss', and is a gorgeous doll pink, but with gold under tones, that really complement my skin tone. Its got a brilliant pay off colour, and lasts most of the day without needing to re-apply. Its an build able colour, plus its super cheap at around about £3.65. Its now a must have of mine, and i may try some of their other colours to see if they live up to my expectations.♥
