Beauty uk French Manicure Update

I re-did my nails from last night. I didn't start over as I have no tip guides left. They look much better!!

I fixed my dodgy thumb without starting again to! Very pleased with how they've turned out now. Practice makes perfect.

Beauty uk French Manicure

Huge warning: I took these straight after I had finished the DIY manicure, so excuse all the white polish on my skin. I thought I better do it quick as I tend to be very impatient when waiting for my nails to dry.

A few months ago I brought the Beauty uk French Manicure set, it was only £2.99 and I thought for a first try at it was a good price.

I used three coats of the base cost, two of the white tip and one coat of the top coat. For a first try I'm pretty impressed. Even though I got the white everywhere on the skin next to my nail. 

My thumb went a bit tacky but the rest have turned ok, I defiantly need more practice with doing it and grow more confident doing it myself. Just need to buy more strips now! This set only comes with 10 which is a bit rubbish.

Anybody else tried this or another brands french manicure set?

New Purchases

Today I went out to get my Mums birthday present and card ect, and brought a few things for myself, not a lot as I'm offically broke, I know I say that a lot, but I am now!
I went into Superdrug hoping to buy the MUA Heaven and Earth Palette and still do not have it. Everything else was in stock  but that, and I was a bit disappointed it wasn't there so I settled on two lipsticks.

MUA Lipstick (Shade 11) - £1 Superdrug

I tried this as soon as I got back home. It's such a lovely warm colour and I will defiantly be wearing this as part of my everyday make-up. 

MUA Lipstick (Shade 13) - £1 Superdrug

How a-mazing is this red?! Its so vivid and great. I only recently just got back the confidence to wear bright lipsticks again, and I literally cannot wait to wear this out! 

Ivory Sunglasses - £1 Primark

I was meant to buy these last time I was in Primark, but they were stuck in the bottom of the basket. They were originally £2 and are now on sale. I have brought a ton of sunglasses in the past but I always break them, so I got this too.

Floral Sunglasses Case - £1 Primark

This was also in the sale, and used to be £2 I think. Hopefully now sunglasses will last much longer! 

Lastly, I picked up a few jewellery accessories from Primark. 

Stone Bracelet - £2 Primark

Stud Earring Set - £1.50 Primark
How cute! I love this set. All are wearable. Sometimes in earring sets, there are always one pair I'm not that keen on, but I would wear all of these, Plus, they have Owl studs! So adorable.

Hope your all enjoying the Summer, UK weather isn't great at the moment.

Just a few weeks till I go on holiday, really need to get away. And looking forward to spending time with family.

My Favourites

Hi guys, sorry for lack of posts, been revising like mad last few weeks. Just wanted to share a few of my favourite products and jewellery. I apologise now for the photo quality, still can't find my camera so I used my phone.

Maybelline Eye Studio Gel Liner (Black) - £7.99 Boots

I know in my previous post I talked about this, but you can see from the pot that I use this a lot. It's a great liner and well worth what I spent on it. I'm thinking about purchasing the Eggplant colour of this too. 

Superdrug face masks (Apricot, peach and Mango Self Heating 

Smoothie Mask) and (Chocolate Nourishing Mud Mask) - Around 60p each Superdrug

I love these face masks. They work well with my skin and make it feel soft after I have used one. I don't use them often as I think they work better within a few weeks of each use. My favourite is the cucumber face mask, as it cools down my skin and as I have sensitive skin, doesn't make it dry ect after use. 

Natural Collection LashCurl Mascara (Brown/Black)  - £1.99 Boots

Collection 2000 XXL Waterproof Volume Sensation (Black) - £4.99 Superdrug

No7 Extreme Length (Black) - Part of a set, Boots

For every day use I use Natural Collection mascara, I love this mascara and was only £1.99. My lashes aren't that long, and when I apply this it extends the lash length and adds a curl to it. I also use No7 Extreme Length mascara, this was part of a set my Mum had, but wasn't to keen on the mascara so I had it. After I've applied the Natural Collection mascara, I use this to separate the lashes as I prefer my lashes to be long and thin for everyday use. For going out, I add the Collection 2000 mascara as it thickens the lashes and gives a fuller lash look. I really like this mascara but feel its a little too much to use everyday. 

Rimmel Vinyl Gloss (Crystal Clear) - £4.99 Superdrug

Rimmel Glam'Eyes Quad Eye Shadow (Beauty Spells) - £6.99 Boots

I really like this lip gloss as it doesn't feel as though you have your lips caked in gloss but makes them feel full and pout like if that makes sense. Also, I really dislike glosses that have a unpleasant smell to them but this smells quite nice. The eye shadows I also love, I haven't yet tried out the smoky eye look on the back on the container, I tend to just use on colour all over the lids. 

Left to right : Natural Collection SunTint Bronzing pearls (Tropical Tan) - £1.99 

Eyeshadow (Barley), Eyeshadow (Fine Silver), Eyeshadow (Candy Floss) - £1.79 each

LashCurl Mascara (Brown/Black) - £1.99

Tinted Lip Balm (Melon Cooler) - £1.99

Moisture Shine Lipstick (Crimson), Moisture Shine Lipstick (Rose Bud) - £1.99 each

I adore the Natural Collection from Boots, it's affordable, very much affordable, but also I feel that its good quality too. The crimson lipstick lasts for ages! And the mascara as I said above works well with my eyelashes. The bronzing pearls are also great and they too last ages.

Left to right : Models Own (Nyla Nude) - £4.99 River Island

Revlon (Minted) - Around £6 Boots

Natural Collection (Hibiscus) - Around £2 Boots

Rimmel Lycra Pro (Peppermint) - Around £4.50

17 High Gloss (Twilight Teaser) - £3.50 Boots

These are my absolute favourite nail colours, I'm loving the green/blue nail polishes at the moment and also Models Own nude colour.

Gold and cream bird ring - £2 Primark

Silver cutout butterfly ring - £2.99 Select
