A bit of beauty

I tend to use the nail polishes that i own and don't expand my collection unless i get some as a gift. I was very lucky recently and i won the lovely Beth's giveaway and in that i got some lovely polishes.



Then the lovely Lisa gave my a birthday gift with lots of lovely nail polishes in


So after getting all these you'd think i'd have enough polish to last a life time but the nail polish bug seems to have over come me !
While i was in superdrug the other day i picked up these Barry M polishes

Gelly Hi Shine in Satsuma & Textured polish
in Ridley Road

Red glitter polish & Pink Saphire glitter

Im sure its no surprise to anyone that while i was there i picked up 2 new lipsticks, I'm an addict I'm sure!
Traffc Jam & Blue Rose
I was lucky enough to get all of these on offer when i went into Superdrug, i have used the red lipstick and i must say it fab the colour is great and its lovely and soft on your lips i'd definitely recommend it and a bargain at  £1.99!
I also got some great bargains at Tesco the other week, not beauty related but i thought id share them,

Black faux fur collar £4, Blue angora beret £2.50
Purple angora beret £2.50
I'm not sure how to wear the beret so any tips would be welcomed thank you :)

Have you been buying any beauty bargains recently?

Hello kitty

On my way to visiting my mum last week i stopped in Boots and Superdrug to pick up a few bits. I thought I'd show you what i bought.
First off from Boots i decided to get myself some everyday perfume. The kind i can wear to work but that doesn't cost very much and isn't too over powering.


 The first perfume i got was the Yardley Royal English Daisy i got a sample of this in my beauty box this month and liked the light fragrance. This was on offer in Boots for £6.65 for 50ml. The second perfume is You & me and reminds me of love heart sweets. Its has a sweet fruity smell and was £2.99 for 15ml. These aren't the sort of perfumes I'd wear on a night out or at the weekend but they are good to wear for work so I'm not using my expensive ones everyday.
Then i went onto superdrug where thanks to Gemma from pinkhairedprincess I'd found out they had Hello Kitty make up in stock. Now you might not know but i love Hello Kitty and i really struggle not to buy everything with her cute little face on! 



While i as there i picked up some VO5 hairspray that I'd heard good things about, £1.99 for 400ml and the VO5 backcomb spray £3.69 for 200ml. I'd seen the back combing spray on athriftymrs and can't wait to try it. I also got 2 of the Hello Kitty lipsticks in underground queen and blazin' both were £3.99. There was lots of other Hello Kitty bits including nail polish and eyeshadow pallets, which would be great for gifts, but i managed to restrain myself to just the lipsticks. 
Thought I'd add i a few pictures of my mums dogs and me too.

Aww snuggles

Day 15 - Your favourite nail polish and your collection

I've only started to paint my nails about 3 years ago and I'm still not amazing at it. I dont think I really have a favourite polish but I do prefer bright colours. I never really have a plan about how I'm going to paint them i just pick the first polish that jumps out at me and i never match it to my outfit! Here is my collection
these are my nail art pens,the first two are primark
 and £1.50 each the other models own and about £6

these are barbara daley for telco

the rimmel polish was free with a dorothy perkins order  last year
and the gosh is from superdrug

these are all 17 from boots

these are barry m the top ones are the crackle effect
and the bottom just solid colour
