MAC's Rich Kid Blues Nail Polish

MAC's Rich Kid Blues is a gorgeous green full coverage glitter polish. This polish is much more vibrant in real life and I'm a bit disappointed I can't show you how nice it actually is in these photographs.

Rich Kid Blues has a great formula which isn't too thick or too thin which means it applies really well to the nails. The brush is fantastic at spreading out the glitter evenly. It dries quickly and is very hard wearing. It is also pretty smooth once dry.

This is a lovely glitter polish and one I'd definitely recommend.

What do you guys think about MAC's Rich Kid Blues Glitter Polish? Do you like green glitter polishes? I'd love to hear what you think! 


River Island Grey Jewell Necklace

How cool is this Grey Jewell Necklace from River Island? I really love the geometric shaped jewels and the understated glamour that this necklace has.

It has all the characteristics that I love in a necklace. It is not too heavy to wear, it's smooth and it's a bit sparkly. What more could I want?!

Essie Winter Nail Polish Haul

Essie are one of my all time favourite nail polish brands so I knew that I would be desperate to get my hands on their new winter polishes. Of course, Essie did not disappoint with these gorgeous metallic and glitter polishes.

The polishes I bought were Leggy Legend (gold metallic), Bell-Bottom Blues (blue metallic), Frillin' Me Softly (silver glitter strands), Tassel Shaker (golden & copper glitter strands), Fashion Flares (pink glitter strands) and Fringe Factor (lilac & purple glitter strands).

What do you guys think about these Essie nail polishes? Do you have any of these? Which is your favourite?







MAC's Silver Dew Nail Polish

MAC's Silver Dew Nail Polish is a silver/pearl toned shimmery glitter polish. I think it is one of my new favourite MAC glitter polishes. 

Silver Dew was lovely to apply as it glided on smoothly to my nails. It has a great brush and an excellent formula. MAC have really got their polish formula down. It dried really quickly and as with all of MAC's polishes was long lasting. I would suggest wearing this polish over another polish as I think you might need quite a few coats of this polish to achieve opaque nails. In the photograph I'm wearing it over a silver polish.

Silver Dew is absolutely gorgeous and I highly recommend it. 

What do you think about MAC's Silver Dew Nail Polish? Would you like to try it? Do you already have it?


MAC's Haute Octane Nail Polish

MAC's Haute Octane Nail Polish is a blue full coverage glitter polish. In the photograph I am wearing it over a black polish but you could probably wear it alone however you might need three coats of polish.

I am a huge fan of MAC's glitter polishes and this one is no exception. The formula of the polish was just excellent with the perfect ratio of glitter to clear polish. It's not too thick or too thin-it's just beautiful. Haute Octane dries super fast and is extremely hard wearing which is great. 

Haute Octane is a brilliant full coverage blue glitter polish which I would definitely recommend to others.

What are your thoughts on MAC's Haute Octane Polish? Is it something you would like to try? It would be great to hear your thoughts.


Too Faced Natural Eyes Eyeshadow Palette

Too Faced's Natural Eyes Eyeshadow Palette has all of the shades that you could want in a natural eyeshadow palette. It has a lovely combination of matte and shimmery shadows. 

I have been so busy that I haven't even had a chance to swatch these shadows. They are so pretty I can't wait to try them.

I think my favourite shades will be Nudie and and Push-Up. I guess I will only know once I've tried them though.

Have you tried Too Faced's Natural Eyes palette? What did you think about it? Leave me a comment!




Christian Dior Nail Polish

My mum surprised me with two pretty Dior nail polishes for my Christmas. I love their polish bottles-they are just adorable! They make beautiful ornaments.

Gris-Or is a metallic shimmery silver/grey polish with golden tones. I was also given State of Gold which is a golden/silver glitter polish. I'm seriously looking forward to wearing both of these polishes together and with other polishes.

What do you think about Gris-Or & State Of Gold? Have you tried any Dior nail polish before? Let me know if you liked them!



MAC's Spelldazzling Nail Polish

I bought MAC's Spelldazzling Nail Polish with my MAC vouchers on Christmas Day because it looked gorgeous and it's even better in real life. It's a beautiful bronze shimmery polish with copper sparkles/shimmer throughout. I wasn't really able to capture this in in the photograph which is a real shame.

Spelldazzling was a dream to apply with its amazingly smooth formula which is highly pigmented and it's great brush. Two coats of polish created perfectly flawless nails. This polish dries really quickly which is a total bonus and it is hard wearing which is ideal for a working girl wearing this polish a week at a time.

Overall, I have to give Spelldazzling a glowing review as it is just fantastic. I highly recommend this polish. I have been so impressed with MAC's nail polishes lately.

What do you guys think about MAC's Soelldazzling Polish? Have you tried this polish? I love hearing from you! 


Juice Cube Review

I bought myself and my parents Juice Cubes for Christmas. In between Christmas & New Year we had a major power cut due to flooding and I was totally kicking myself because none of us had charged up our juice cubes. So, as soon as the power came back on I got my Juice Cube out and started charging it.

Since then I have given it ago and I think it's great. It was really easy to charge and I love the design. If you shake the Juice Cube little lights light up to indicate how much charge is left which I think is a fantastic idea. It is also the perfect size to carry around in your handbag. It's definitely ideal for emergencies when u need an extra bit of phone charge. I don't think it could charge your phone fully from a very low percentage to one hundred percent but that is why we have mains chargers.

This might be an emergency charger that you might want to invest in .

What do you guys think about this Juice Cube? Do you have one? Or is it something you would like to get? I would love to know your thoughts!



River Island Multi-Coloured Jewelled Necklace

I am loving this Multi-coloured Jewelled Necklace from River Island at the moment. I think that the combination of differently coloured and shaped jewels makes this necklace really cool.

The jewels are clear, grey, green, blue and pale pink and surprisingly they all look really nice together. I love the contrast with the gold metal of the necklace. It is not too heavy which makes for a more comfortable wear which is great. This is overall a really lovely necklace and one which I am glad to have purchased.

What do you think of this River Island Multi-coloured Jewelled Necklace? Do you have a necklace that you can't stop wearing right now?

MAC Girl Trouble Nail Polish

I am so in love with MAC's Girl Trouble nail polish. It is an awesome metallic, shimmery pale lilac polish which is not a shade of polish that you see a lot. It is quite unique and very pretty.

I am so happy I bought this polish as it has an amazing formula which applies beautifully to the nails. It is really smooth and has a fantastic consistency. It is extremely well pigmented for such a pale shade and you only need two coats of this polish for flawless nails. This polish dries really quickly which is ideal.

Girl Trouble is definitely a polish that I would highly recommend to you guys! I can't wait to team it up with some glitter.

What do you guys think about MAC's Girl Trouble nail polish? Have you ever tried MAC nail polish before?  


MAC Over-Acessorized Nail Polish

Over-Accessorized is just one of MAC's amazing glitter polishes. I feel that it is quite different to other glitter polishes that I have tried. It is such a cool polish but it was so difficult to photograph.

MAC's Over-Accessorized polish consists of golden and pale pink strands of glitter. Unfortunately, I'm not sure how well you can see this in the photographs.

This polish was great to apply as it has the perfect glitter strand to clear base polish ratio. The glitter is distributed nicely when painted on with the great brush. Over-Accessorized also dries really quickly and rather smoothly.

I would definitely recommend this polish to you especially if you are looking for something a bit different which is still sparkly.

What do you guys think about MAC's Over-Accessorized polish? Have you tried this polish before? I love hearing from you guys!



Grey Swarovski Phone Case

I bought my Mum this amazing grey Swarovski phone case for Christmas and I really wanted to share its beauty with you guys. I know you love sparkly things as much as I do. She absolutely loves it and it made such a great gift for her. I can share in her excitement too by having a wee look at how pretty it is every now and then.

MAC Amber X 9 Palette

I tried to resist MAC's Amber X 9 eyeshadow palette a few months ago but as it got closer to Christmas I decided that I should treat myself to it before it was totally sold out. I am so glad that I bought it now because I think I will get a lot of use out of it. It is also extremely pretty. I think that the matte shades in the palette will be great so I can't wait to try it out.

What do you guys think about MAC's Amber X 9 palette? Do you guys have this palette? It would be great to hear your thoughts!



MAC Faerie Whispers Eyeshadows & Nail Polish

I discovered MAC's Faerie Whispers collection on Christmas Day when I went online to spend the MAC vouchers that I got for Christmas. When I saw these eyeshadows and this nail polish I knew that I would love them. The eyeshadows looked like they would have an amazing texture and great pigmentation and I was right. I bought Fairy Land, Joy Toy, Enchanted Forest and Faerie Fayre. I think these will be my new favourite eyeshadows in 2016. 

The nail polish is called Spelldazzling and it is so much more beautiful and sparkly in real life. The photo does not do it justice.

What do you think about these new MAC Faerie Whispers Foiled Eyeshadows and this nail polish? Have you tried anything from this collection yet? I love hearing from you!
