William Tell Me About O.P.I

First off may i excuse for the mistakes around my cuticles i just did my nails and have no nail varnish remover handy haha!

So i am wearing O.P.I William Tell Me About, i love this colour because it is like a deep wine shade and gives a sophisticated look to nails i think.
The consistency is good as it is not too thick and clumpy but not too runny and would have only needed one coat, however i like to use two to give better coverage.

My mam got it for me when she was last at Sallys so i am not sure what the price is but i imagine it is around £10

Christmas Perfumes!


So i got 6 gorgeous perfumes for Christmas which will last me ages, and each one is gorgeous!
I got Ghost Sweetheart, Ghost Cherish, Sui Dreams, Midnight Fantasy, Sex in The City Illusion and Sex and The City Lust.



GHOST SWEETHEART
This is one of my all time favourites, i have gotten it every christmas/birthday since it came out i love it soo much!

Smell: unreal, sweet, pretty, just gorgeous
Bottle: quite rectangular but dips near the middle
Colour: peachy
Box: peach colour with feathers on

GHOST CHERISH
Now this was a new perfume for me as i have never smelt it before but i love it nonetheless!

Smell: strong but sweet if that makes sense :P
Bottle: rectangular then dips near middle with a round lid
Colour: pink
Box: a gorgeous pink colour with a angel/cherub on the top

Sui Dreams

Sui Dreams by Anna Sui is another perfume i adore and have had every christmas/birthday, i think the reason i get the same perfumes over and over is because i prefer my perfumes to be not too strong and more sweet and these are exactly that

Smell: just my type - sweet
Bottle: like a little handbag which is so cute
Colour: sky blue
Box: well mine came as a gift set so its in a lovely little toiletry bag


Midnight Fantasy

Midnight Fantasy by Britney Spears is just to die for! i have had the original fantasy before but never this one, my friend had it and i loved it then but just got it now and its lush

Smell: quite fruity with stronger undertones
Bottle: round with diamantes on and a studded neck - beaut
Colour: indigo
Box: blues and purples with flowers and silver studs

Sex in The City Illusion


I got Sex in The City Illusion of my sister and is another lovely perfume. I love the show and the films so its just right i should have the perfume, the sets come with a miniature perfume, perfect for in your bag!

Smell: stronger than my usual but i love it
Bottle: quite square but curved
Colour: the bottle is red but the perfume is clear
Box: it came as a gift set with body lotion, shower gel and a mini perfume but the box has a dotted view of New York

                                           Sex in The City Lust

 Last but not least is Sex in The City Lust, this one was of my Grandma and my sister got the Sex in The City Love one, they only have 3 types so its lucky none of us got the same haha!
It is stronger than my type but i do really like it and will wear it many of times

Smell: quite strong and alluring
Bottle: same as the other one
Colour: the bottom is purple but the rest is clear like the perfume
Box: came as a gift set with shower gel, body lotion and a miniature perfume and the box has a purple view of New York



So thats it, i love all my perfumes and have plenty of scents to choose from when i want to wear a one! hope you enjoyed.

O.P.I Nail Envy


Nail Envy has to be the best nail strengthener ever!

Nail Envy is a nail strengthening product from nail envy, it is amazing at keeping your nails strong and healthy after only a short time. I have been using Nail Envy in original and matte for about 9 months and it has done wonders to my nails when im not wearing acrylics (which can make them soft) you can also get 4 other types of Nail Envy which include soft and thin,sensitive and peeling, dry and brittle and maintenance which i dont have but may purchase soon enough! A 15ml bottle of Nail Envy is not extremley cheap and costs around £20 but it is well worth the price.



The original bottle of Nail Envy just looks how clear nail varnish would. You paint it on your nails just like normal and leave it for a few minutes before you apply the colour you choose. Only apply Nail Envy to the bare nail bed and you should have stronger nails in no time!


The matte bottle of Nail Envy is very similar to the original. The only difference is when you apply the matte polish like normal nail varnish it absorbs into your nail plate therefore showing no shine.
This one is suitable for men with brittle nails also as it doesn't show up and they wont feel embarrassed about wearing nail varnish haa

Its Christmas!!


heey,
so this is my first ever post (exciting haa) anyway since its christmas my lovely mam and dad got me a laptop! I did ask for one because i was sick of sitting in the dining room on the computer shared by everyone in my house and now i can type away anywhere to my hearts content, lol.
So i got a laptop along with a wii fit plus, about 87528365 bottles of perfume, dressing gown etc the usually girly stuff.
The reason i decided to start a blog was because with getting a laptop it meant i could blog whenever i want! This blog will be filled with all my beauty favourites stuff like that and i also have just learned how to do my own acrylic nails (hoooray) so will be blogging about that often.

Since it is christmas you can imagine i am sitting on my settee in my brand new dressing gown, typing this, stuffing my face with chocolate (even though im stuffed, its too tempting) and having a cheeky glass of rose! ;-)
However hope you all had a fantastic, amazing christmas and got everything you wanted and i will be back soon with more posts...

P.S since this is a brand new blog it has nothing on but will be a lot better soon, i promise.
