BarryM Greenberry with Ciate Snow Globe Nails

I hadn't painted my nails for three weeks until the other day. After painting them a couple of times a week, sometimes more, for a long time I thought my nails could benefit from a break. It was hard because I love having painted nails and I'm always buying nail polish that I want to try out. I think I did good lasting three weeks :)


      First Coat of Ciate Snow Globe

    With two coats of Ciate Snow Globe


I used BarryMs' Greenberry first, this is my favourite colour from their Gelly range.  After applying two coats I let them dry for a few minutes before applying a coat of Ciate Snow Globe. I absolutely adore Ciate polishes. Not only are the bottles cute with their little bows but I find the brush easy to grip and apply with. The polishes themselves have never disappointed me! 
I fancied a bit of sparkle which is why I chose Snow Glove to use over the top. It's a Cloudy polish with chunky hologram foil pieces in silver, pink and blue. I had to apply two coats to get a decent layer of the pieces but it dries clear, so it doesn't look too thick or cloud the colour underneath. 
I really love this combo, its perfect for ending the summer before I dig out the more autumnal colours. 

What was your favourite Summer Nail colour/combo?

Superdrug - Vitamin E Hot Cloth Cleanser - Review

Hey Guys
 
I bought this Vitamin E Hot Cloth Cleanser a few months ago and after losing it to a mound of unused products for a couple of months I finally rescued it and have been using it for about 3 weeks now.

Back of the product
 
A lot of people rave about the Liz Earl Hot Cloth Cleanser which, I was very tempted to buy but I don't like to spend a lot of money on a product/brand I have never tried before so prefer to try the cheaper brands first and if I like them I feel better about investing in a more expensive brand. After seeing a few reviews for this Superdrug Hot Cloth Cleanser I decided to pick one up. I'm glad I did because I'm very impressed with it, it smells really good, feels silky when you apply and using the hot Muslim cloth to polish it off, leaves your skin feeling amazing and so smooth and soft!
I have noticed my skin looks clearer and has a lovely glow after using. I'm very happy with this product so I won't be buying the Liz Earl, no point spending more money on the same when you're happy with the one you have!
 
This is available from Superdrug stores and online and you can find it here it is currently on offer for £4.99 instead of the usual £5.99.
 
Let me know if you use a Hot Cloth Cleanser :)

Im Back!

Hey!

I am back to blogging after a short break, I have had a hectic few weeks, some personal stuff going on, my brothers wedding, home decorating to name a few.

I hope you have been enjoying our great summer weather? I have to admit I loved everyday but was relieved to have a few days of cooler temps lately.

I have had a few shopping trips so will post what I bought with a review over the next couple of weeks.

I will share this cute lantern I bought from Hobbycraft with you today though, I bought two to use as a makeup brush holder and a hair brush holder. They has a cute heart cut out and are about 6 inches tall so perfect for storage. I currently use the ELF single brush holder which did me just fine but is too small now I have a few extra brushes.





I'm spending the rest of today writing posts and taking pictures so hopefully I will have a few posts up soon :)
