Just a quick post as I'm procrastinating on my very lazy Sunday. Went out with some friends I haven't seen in a while, it was really fun. We went to Popworld, Django's Riff and ended up in The Krazyhouse, all the while dancing to Spice Girl mixes and batting away boys with suspicious Pokemon hair :')

I've been meaning to post a photo of the Limited Edition Barry M colour nail varnish for a while now; I've only had it a couple of weeks, but it's not left my nails!


Nabbed it in the 2 for £5 deal, it's not a typical Winter colour, but I adore it! It goes on quite a light pink in the first coat, but a second gives it a lovely purple, I think it's quite a delicate colour. Not sure if you can still pick it up, try having a peek in a bigger branch of Boots, I don't think Superdrug stocked it to begin with.


I also nabbed these three the other week, I've tried the Indigo and LOVE it; it's more of a bright blue but with dark purple undertones - perfect for Winter.
I picked up the Strawberry Ice Cream because I've heard good things about it, and also "Wham" which is a light grey, purely because I don't yet own a grey, plus it was £1.99, so I can't really complain if it's crap!

EDIT - Looking deep into my nail varnish drawer, I may have a slight addiction... will post more on this addiction tomorrow.

What colour have you been painting your nails?

Much to my delight, my package from ELF arrived this morning.

This is the second time I've ordered from ELF - the first time I purchased 'Desert Haze' nail varnish; Complexion Perfection; Waterproof Eyeliner Pen in Midnight; and Candy Shop lip gloss in Cherry Bomb - all of which I'll post a haul on later.

This time, however, I went for lip products, as I've heard good things about their range.



I apologise for the poor quality photos - I'm having to use my phone for now as my camera's playing up :(


So I plumped for (L-R) Mineral Blemish kit in Sheer, All Over Colour stick in Pink Lemonade, Mineral Lipstick in Runway Pink, and Luscious Liquid Lipstick in Baby Lips.



(L-R) Baby Lips, Runway Pink, Pink Lemonade.


As you can never be too sure what colour something is on the internet, as the swatches aren't always accurate, I just guessed which colours would be nice... Turns out I guessed right!
The Runway Pink lipstick is pretty much exactly the colour I've been looking for - I'm trying to wear more lipsticks, and I wanted something clean and neutral-looking with a hint of colour.
Baby Lips liquid lipstick works amazingly well as a gloss over Runway Pink; they match really well, and Baby Lips isn't sticky so I won't wanna wipe it off all the time!

Pink Lemonade is lovely; I'm yet to try it out properly, but will update this later on when I do my makeup before I go out.
Same with the Mineral Blemish Kit - I've been told their Minerals range is really good, so we'll see :)




What's your favourite ELF product? Are there any I'm missing out on?
