Accessorize 4D nails

I received this nail art kit as a gift a couple of days ago.

 

This is my first attempt. I love that it sparkles! What do you think?

 

 

I was so excited to try it out because I had heard a lot about it. Otherwise known as ‘caviar nails’ I tried it out and I think that it’s an amazing product. I love products from Accessorize, be it jewellery or bags. Now I’m in love with their nail varnish. I am definitely going to get more of these nail art products.

It’s very simple to use. You use the nail varnish that comes with it and apply two coats. However once the second coat is still wet apply the little gems onto your nails by just tapping it on your nail or dip it in a container containing the beads. It is so easy to apply and just leave it a while to dry and apply a top coat.

It has lasted a long time on my nails and it gives such an awesome texture. I love the feeling of it and it looks like little sparkling gems. It truly gives a 4D effect.

I am truly a nail art enthusiast and probably change the pattern on my nails perhaps once a week. I am definitely going to incorporate this product!!

You should definitely buy these if you love nail art or you want this easy and fantastic nail effect!

Let me know what you think about it! +Accessorize

Revlon Just Bitten Lipstain and Balm Review

Hello!

For a while I’ve been looking for a good lipstain for the summer and at my local drugstore I found many varieties but I decided to get the Revlon Just Bitten Lipstain and Balm.

I have to say that I am loving the product so far and would love to give you some pros and cons to help you out if you were thinking of getting it! Here it goes:

Firstly I have to say there are more pros than cons! The smell of the lipstain is a peppermint smell which was surprising as I thought it would be more berry smelling but to be honest once it’s on your lips you can’t smell a thing.

I bought the Beloved/Adoration colour and I think that’s my favourite as it is a natural colour which is perfect for everyday use as well as going out.

Pros:

·         Easy application: Once you put it on your lips it feels like a balm. Make sure you moisturise your lips first with the balm from Revlon or your preferred balm to prevent dry lips later on.

·         Amazing stain power: if like me when you want a lipstain, you actually want it to stain your lips instead of fading very quickly. This lipstain is fantastic! It practically lasts for the whole day (but may vary depending on what you eat or whatever you do with your lips!).

·         Fantastic pigmentation: there’s no need to have many layers of the lipstain on your lips. Just Bitten has great layering.

·         No taste to it: You practically forget that you have it on your lips because it feels light and you don’t have that chemical smell to it

·         It truly is kissable!

 

Cons:

·         Not retractable- You don’t know how much product actually is in there

·         Make sure when you use the balm and place the top back on, do it gently because you might chop the balm off which wouldn’t be good!

Summer Nail Art Ideas

So if I'm not mistaken we are in the summer season and hopefully the sun is shining wherever you are. I love summer and I am a big fan of nail art designs and I thought that we could combine the two to have funky nails this summer! I'll show you a few designs that I found online that you could try out. Some are easier than others but in the end they will all look amazing!!
 
What you need:

• A base coat (optional but I always use it because it protects my nails)
• Specific nail varnish colour
• Top coat (once again this is optional but by putting on the top coat it makes your design stay on for longer for you to admire!)
• Nail art pens (you can get these at any drugstores, these are great for detailed patterns on your beautiful nails)

Feel free to try these out and if you want you can send me pictures of your great designs!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Have a great day! x

There's more to life than technology

You are probably reading this blog post on your laptop, computer, tablet or phone... am I right?

I have written a blog post on social media but this is slightly different. Today I'd like to talk about technology as a whole and how much it of an impact it makes on our everyday lives. I'm not saying technology is at all bad, it has been used for scientific research to save lives and to improve people's lives; but I think that we rely on technology too much nowadays.

Technology definitely affects my life. I wake up in the morning and I check my emails, news on my phone that is next to me. Is that just me? I am constantly on YouTube, Facebook and Twitter even though there is nothing of importance on these sites. We are in our own little world with our phones and tablets, just today I was on the train to meet a friend and surrounding me were people on their phones. Ok, I'm not saying we should all talk to one another in a circle but it would be nice if they read a book or just enjoyed the surroundings. What do you think?

We are constantly surrounded by technology and have the need and desire to get the latest phone model. Does it really make you happy if you buy the iPhone 6? What I am trying to say is that people were happy before technology really developed. Honestly I think that technology can affect a persons' mental and physical health. Insomnia, aggression, obesity and depression are a few effects of constant use of technology.

So what can we all do to overcome this addiction? :

1. Before picking up any technological device say to yourself: "Do I really need to use it? Will it benefit me?"

2. Cut down the amount of time you use a device. I am going to give myself an hour max to do what I need to do with regularly breaks. I really don't need to spend so much time on my phone

3.  People seem to forget that there is a real world out there. Yes it might be scary but you have to enjoy what you have. Put that phone down and socialise with real-life people by going out for a meal or go for a walk in the park. Anything really to enjoy what really is there. Life is short. Enjoy every bit of it.

So there you have it. I hope I helped you realise that sometimes we don't always need to rely on technology


See you next time x

Live Pink Victoria's Secret- Crushed Berries Perfume Review

Hi there

It's been a long time since I last wrote a blog due to many reasons but now I am back and will be writing regularly! YES!

A couple of days ago I decided a long awaited shopping trip was needed. In one of my various shopping bags was a bottle of perfume from Victoria's Secret. I'll tell you that I have never been in this store before (I never really understood what was special about it) but I have to be honest that once you get in this store you never want to leave because it is beautiful! What made this store even better was that there was a MASSIVE SALE! I do love a sale ;)

From the sale I got myself a black Victoria's Secret Hoodie and a crushed berries scented perfume:

I love this perfume! This perfume definitely smells like summer! It is vibrant and young. It does not have a strong sweet smell which is perfect for me as I am not keen on really sweet smelling perfumes... they just hurt my head! I just love this scent, just the name of 'crushed berries' gets me excited about summer (I see myself relaxing by the pool or going on a camping adventure). It is sweet without being too sugary and it is light which is perfect for everyday use. Also I have to say that it is really fun and youthful.
Once I have finished the bottle I am definitely buying another!

Bye gals x
