Be Happy, Be Inspired

Today is a very sad day. I was out in town earlier, and my bag fell on the floor, nothing fell out so I just picked it back up and carried on. A while later I went to look for something in my bag and noticed a strong smell of nail polish...so I investigated and noticed that the top of my nail envy was missing and it had all spilled into my bag. Disaster.


So now I have Nail Envy residing at the bottom of my bag, I don't really fancy getting a new one for £15 as I had loads left of my other one. Arghghgg.
:(:(:(
does anyone know a cheap retailer?

Ok I'll start with...
1.
Dove Go Fresh anti-perspirant deodorant: I’m really impressed with this, it makes the skin on my underarms really smooth and smelling fresh  I feel safe wearing this I usually worry about sweating but with this I feel fresh as a daisy and it lasts a long time too.
2.
St Ives Apricot Scrub (blemish Fighting): This is a really good exfoliator. I find I need to exfoliate quite regularly and this doesn’t dry out my skin. It’s for oily/blemish prone skin, which I have and find that it really does help to clear my skin when I get spots. It has a really nice like antiseptic scent to it that is cooling on the skin.
3.
Rimmel Volume Booster Lipstick: as mentioned in my last post I love this lipstick.
4.
No.7 Stay Perfect Top Coat: literally what it says on the tin, when I use this, my nail polish with stay perfect. Its adds a nice shine as well. Need I say more?
5.
Bourjois 10 Hour Sleep Effect Foundation: I actually bought this a while ago, and have recently started using it again. It’s a really nice light foundation that covers well and adds a subtle sheen to the skin. It has a really nice ‘florally’ (is that even a word?) scent to it as well.
6.
Witch Radiance Serum: this has a really odd consistency, it’s quite runny, but it’s a really nice light moisturizer with light reflecting particles. Given that I have quite oily skin I find that I can wear this alone and feel that my skin is hydrated enough. Good for anyone prone to spots too
7.
Body Shop Tantalising Lip Butter: This is gorgeous. The scent is so nice and the consistency is creamy and smooth, which is unlike some of the other lip butters I’ve tried, I tend to find them almost gritty? It just melts onto your lips. It even tastes great. even better than that ‘Proceeds will be used to support the 2009 campaign raising awareness on HIV and Aids, in partnership with MTV, raising funds for the Staying Alive Foundation.’

I have never been able to wear nude lipstick. Untill recently every nude lipstick i bought just didnt suit me. I found that because my lips are naturally quite red that I just wasn't able to pull it off. I love the idea of nude lips so I didn't end my search, I bought a turquise dress recently and thought that a nice pinky nude lipstick would go well with it so my search began again and actually it was supprisingly easy to find. I'd seen another post about this lipstick so when shopping one day I decided to have a look at it for myself. It was Rimmel's Volume Booster Lipstick in Foxy. I instantly fell in love with the color and it was exactly the shade i'd been after.



It's have a really nice creamy consistancy, and because its 'volume boosting' a nice colling sensation.

Im just really happy that I've managed to find a nude lipstick I can wear. so for that reason alone it's love

I know its been a while, sorry!

anyway, back to the point. Nail polish... this week I will me wearing Barry M nail paint in 295 Turquise. :) love this color.



I know the picture quality is pretty bad, but you get an idea of the color.

I love the Barry M nail paints, probably the best high street brand of polish that I have come across. for £2.95 a bottle they're deffinatly worth it. I just find them so easy to apply and this finish is great, really smooth. I own quite a few of these already and have just orded the Mint Green one and Pale Purple. :) I'm just waiting for them to bring out a pale coral color and then I think my life will be complete. Natural Collection by Boots have a coral color that is just beautiful called Vintage coral, the colors fab but its quite difficult to apply, so if Barry M want to just bring out that color for me then that would be great :) (y)

Hello,
I just ordered a Split Ender...

Yes, it looks really gimmicky but I've read some really good reviews of it and given that I have really bad split ends and hate going to the hair dressers just for them to 'trim' about 5" of hair I thought I'd give it a go. it was £19.99 from Amazon.co.uk (not including P+P) and should arrive some time next week. Im quite excited. I saw it a while ago and wanted to buy it but didn't. so expect a post on that soon.

on the subject of hair, the other day I purchased a



SUPERDRUG EFFECTS MAHOGANY 5.5



'Colour Effects is a conditioning wash in wash out colour which will add beautiful tones to your hair whilst leaving it in great condition and with a fantastic shine. With 8 shades to chose from, there is something for everyone. This shade adds subtle red tones to light brown to mid brown hair.'

I have to say I'm really impressed with this. it cost me 97p. yes...97P! great for when your going out and want to add some color to your hauir without the damagin effects of dying it.


thank you for reading. have a lovely day.
