Spring Time Nails | Barry M 'Key Lime' & 'Sour Apple'

The sun was out all day today in Glasgow so I thought it's defiantly time for some summer nails. 
Here is my spring 'Nail of the Day' with a base bright green in 'Key Lime' in Barry M gelly nail paint, with a top coat of Barry M confetti nail pain in shade 'Sour Apple'.

Maybelline Colour Sensational lipstick | 'Hot Plum' | 906

"WHY AM I NOT CARRIE BRADSHAW!?"

Swatch | 'Hot Plum' lipstick

Bad light | Good lipstick :)
My Carrie inspired look



So in between vast amounts of uni work, i have been filling any spare minutes addicted to 'The Carrie Diaries".  I didn't think it would be all that good until I caught the young Miss Bradshaw wearing a jumper I own that!! It made me look at my current uni ensemble (leggings, baggy jumper, no make-up and scraped up hair) and think....what happened?! I LOVE dressing up, but over the past month I have had to make school my priority.....but with my thesis almost done and my last presentation a matter of days away... I can taste the freedom (and lipstick)!

I jumped into my make-up bag this morning and slapped on this colour sensation lipstick my Maybelline in shade 'Hot Plum' (No. 906). I bought it a few months back and still haven't had a chance to wear it out so what better day than today! 

During A/W I always head for reds, but hey, I've lost an hour of sleep so that mean S/S14 and pink lips right?!

The colour pay off was awesome and although it transferred off quite a bit, I just love the colour so much! perfect if you are feeling a little but 80's

What is your favourite Spring/Summer lip colour?

MUA Bronzer | Review & Swatches

"I'm too pale, I can't wear bronzer or i'll look like this....."

This was my motto/ fear for many years! A a pasty pale rose, struggling to find the right foundation that doesn't make you look too orange or pink can be a problem... so bronzer!? don't even go there...Until now!?

I always thought the key to finding the right bronzer would be to go for a better quality/ higher price tag! ohhh but how wrong I was. After years of spending a fortune on beautiful bronzers, using them once and realising I'm still too orange, I discovered this budget bronzer that are perfect for us pale gals!

MUA Bronzer | Shade 3 | £1



The good thing about this products is the colour pay off.... in high quality bronzers, the colour tends to be more intense, and harder to blend! Now while this may be perfect if you are a bronzed goddess... in my case, less is defiantly more. In the summer, if you are a slightly darker, then just simply apply more... are for the cost of this MUA bronzer at only £1, you will not be left out of pocket!
