NOTW: Suzi Says Feng Shui

Hi =)

Nail of the week: Suzi Says Feng Shui!

Collective Haul

Hi =)

I know I said I wasn't going to do a haul, but I haven't had much time to try and review all the items. I collected everything together and took one snapshot:

NOTW Part 2: Disco Ball

Hi =)

I did a post yesterday with Rimmel's Sunshine yesterday, and I added a little glitter on top. It's Rimmel's Disco Ball, with large blue and purple glitter and very fine silver too in a clear polish base. I love it!

Quick NOTW: Sunshine

Hi =)
Unfortunately, I'm only going to do a quick NOTW because I used up all my seche vite top coat, and I ordered a new one over a month ago but still have not received it =( so the polish looks dodgy (hence why I only have a blurry pic of it). This is my own photo.

Re-starting up this blog. (And the other one.)

Hi! =)

As you can probably tell, I have changed things around (again). As you may also be able to tell, all my old posts are missing. I have changed a lot of the layout and the blog and everything so here are all the important points to note:

• I now have two blogs, and two links at the top of this page. One is for my personal blog, where I rant, do updates and fun little things. The second is for my "beauty" blog. I put beauty in quotation marks, because my knowledge of beauty is very limited, but it is the easiest word to use. 
• If you have followed my old blog, you are now subscribed to my "beauty" blog. It sort of happened as I was moving things around, and I suppose it is easier to keep it that way. Follow my personal blog too if you are interested. Mostly I will be using it to vent. A LOT. And all other non-beauty related fun stuff I like to talk about.
• As I said before, all my old posts are missing. Some of them have been moved to the Beauty Blog. The rest, I have deleted, and I decided it would be good to start fresh. A lot of them I am not happy with, and will probably re-do the same/similar posts but with, hopefully, more info and a higher quality. 
• I will continue to write up posts beforehand, so my opinion may change or there may be a strange time lapse between posts... This is the reason why, and I feel like this keeps me on track and keeps me committed to blogging. 
• I am trying to be serious about these blogs, so as I said before, I will post up at least one blog post per weekend, either on my beauty or my personal blog. Please, please check back regularly =)
• I am still also working on Project 5 Pan (which I may have slightly broken - explanation later). I have hit pan on one lip gloss from the e.l.f. beauty black book. (The original post should be under my beauty blog). 
• I will try to organise my tags better too. Particularly on my beauty one, I will probably tag them by name. 

I think that's all for now? I also have A LOT more posts coming up I have bought a few clothing items in preparation for summer (YAY!) and I have purchased a few make-up items from NYX and a few other brands, which I will do a review on each item, in place of a haul. The first review will be coming up very soon.

Also, on my old blog, I had nearly 20 followers, so thank you for following! Hope you enjoy the future blog posts! And this new layout/design/style. Thanks =)

NOTW: Paint Splattered - Do You Lilac It?

Hi =)

Just a quick NOTW. OPI's Do You Lilac It?

Summer 2011/2012 Trends

Hi =)

I did a little shopping yesterday, and after spending winter hearing all about the summer trends in the Northern Hemisphere, its finally our turn! These are trends that may be obvious, talked about incessantly by others, but these are the trends I saw as I walked around the shops.

NOTW: OPI's In My Back Pocket and Sportsgirl's Ink

Hi =)

Unfortunately the polishes I ordered two weeks ago, still haven't arrived =( neither has my little NYX batch!
As soon as they do, I'm definitely doing hauls! YAY!

Anyway, for these nails I used OPI's In My Back Pocket:

Beauty mark: Tightlining/eyeliner with NYX

Hi =)

This is slowly becoming more and more of a beauty blog =/ It is by no means intentional. I just find more interesting things to say about beauty related things. If I'm not doing this, then I'm going off on an angry rant...

Anyways, a couple weeks ago, maybe a month, MakeupByTiffanyD put up a video about tightlining. I really loved her tutorial. I learn a lot from her videos.

Basically (not taking credit for this!), tight lining is a technique used to "fill out" the lash line to make your eyelashes seem fuller (as in you have more lashes).

NOTW: China Glaze For Audrey

Hi =)

I used to be obsessed with painting my nails, and I would probably change my nail colour twice a week. And then I slowly got lazier and lazier, and would sometimes only paint my nails every once a week, and now every 2-3 weeks. But to keep it simple, I won't do a "Nail of the Day" (NOTD) because I don't change my nails every day (and I know people who do NOTD, don't change their nails everyday either).  But I'm going to use "Nail of the Week" (NOTW) just because its a little more realistic for me. I wanted to create a new title for this, but to be honest, I can't really be bothered. I'm not very creative, so I will end up spending hours on Google, and Dictionary.com and Thesaurus.com trying to find something clever. And plus NOTD is practically universal, so NOTW should be kind of easy to transition into right?

Project 5 Pan

Hi =)

I heard about this awhile ago, and it is for people who own waaaaaay too much make-up to stop purchasing more and more, and to instead use what they have, until they "hit pan" on 10 of their products. From what I understand, "hit pan" means to use up a product so much you can see the tin "pan" bottom of the container. Obviously, things like lip gloss and foundation don't have the "pan" but you get the idea. Instead of 10 though, I'm going to do 5 =P

NP Collection 31/08/11

Hi =)

This is my mini nail polish collection. I have only included my OPI and one China Glaze, because I love them more =P
