B-e-a-utiful eyes

Lately I have been venturing in to the area of eye make-up, as in wearing a lot more of it, and with this, every girl knows you need a good eye make-up remover. I had tried a couple but none of them really removed it nicely with out me taking violent action against my eye, which trust me, it didn't appreciate. I'd had this problem for a while, until I came upon this beauty...
Vast in it's glory...
I had never heard of the brand botanics before, but now I don't know what I would do without this product. It looks a bit strange to start with as the oils have separated, but don't fret with a vigorous shake you're all set to go. It take's off your eye make-up so easily, just one swipe over your eyes and most of your make-up has gone with it, even waterproof. I will admit the first time I used it around my eyes felt strange and oily but that's just the product using it's after magic. If it isn't enough that it takes all of your make-up off easily, it also brightens and soothes your eyes and conditions your lashes, and I mean who doesn't want conditioned lashes? I think this product is perfect and I am very happy with it, so I definitely recommend it. Don't forget to check what it's made of to make sure you're not allergic to anything, and if you're not then go ahead I say!

Nail Varnish Of The Week

I rarely have naked nails, that sounds a bit strange, and so I've decided to make a short post every new nail eve about the nail polish I've been wearing that week, just a small review about the colour, how well it stays on and my personal opinion on it. So let’s begin with nail varnish of the week numero uno :) 
this weeks nail varnish...
So this week I decided to use a nail varnish from the brand 17 in the colour 'Glisten'
I bought this nail varnish a year ago now, but luckily is still available to buy in boots. It is one of my favourite nail varnishes for autumn as it has a warm orangey colour to it with a shimmer of rose gold, it is a beautiful colour! It stays on your nails for a medium period of time with out chipping, and you can layer it up to create more of an intense colour, or stick to one coat for a subtle hit. For this week I decided to layer it on top of a white nail varnish and it has given it such an amazing light pearly look to the nails and I am very happy with it. I definitely recommend this nail varnish to anyone and everyone!

Thankyou for reading, and have a nice day :)

Coating Up For Winter

WHERE DID THE SUMMER GO?
OK I know I am a bit late noticing but summer has definitely gone and autumn/winter has officially began. Which means a lot of good things, for instance wrapping up in layers of clothes and warm jumpers, an aroma of cinnamon where ever you go, the season of snow and rain (although if you live in Britain like me, every season is rain season) and a lot more. But what I'm trying to get to is that since it is going to be raining more and (hopefully) snowing, there is one item of clothing we're all going to need, yes that's right... a coat. Now I know I'm not the only one that is thinking this but I hate wearing coats, with a passion... even so that I would go out in the snow with layers and layers of jumpers on instead to keep the cold away just to make sure I didn't have to wear one. But the reason I hated coats was based upon the fact that I could never find one I liked (I'd like to think of it as not being picky, but just knowing what I prefer... OK maybe a bit picky) but that, was until now...
Ta Dah!
It may seem like a simple parka to anyone, but for some reason it had never occurred to me to try a parka coat, and I definitely regret it. There are no flaws with a coat like this, I love the colour (check), it has a fluffy inside (check) and well if that's not enough to get you to love this coat then I don't know what else is, because it definitely is enough for me. This particular one is from Matalan and only cost me £35, which if you ask me is very cheap for a coat, but the coat it's self is the complete opposite of cheap, being thick, comfortable and perfect for layering jumpers under and keeping you warm in the colder days (although if you do want to layer underneath I do recommend getting one size bigger than usual to make sure it's still comfortable). So there we go, my fear of coats has been lifted and I can not wait for it to get colder so I can practically live in the thing... sorry for rambling, but I do recommend taking a look at it, if you have the same problem as me or are simple looking for a good coat
