OPI Nothin' Mousie 'Bout It

Hello Readers!

Today I am reviewing OPI's Nothin' Mousie 'Bout It. It is from the 'vintage minnie mouse' collection, and is a pink glitter polish with small confetti love hearts in it!

It is ideal to wear over another colour, as a top coat. It does require a bit of effort to distribute the love hearts on your nail, because on some coats, you may not even get a love heart out, you'd just get a layer of fine pink glitter!

I am currently wearing this nail polish with my other OPI nail polish, 'My address is Hollywood'.

This is a really girly and fun nail polish, and can see myself getting a lot of use out of it! I have had this on for two days now, and have experienced minimal chipping.

You can get it here for £11, or any other OPI stockist of your choice!

My Rating: 4/5

OPI Be a Dahlia Won't You? - Nail Polish Review

Hello Readers!

This is just a quick post, showing you what I am currently wearing on my nails! This is a mini OPI nail varnish, in the shade 'Be a Dahlia Won't You?'. This shade came from OPI Nice Stems collection. This pack contains 4 polishes, and retails for just under £13. You can buy this on BeautyBay here. I think buying miniature OPI's is a good idea, because it allows you to try various colours and finishes for a lower price, and saves you around £11 if you were to buy a full size version, to find you don't like it!

This is a really nice sparkling fuchsia pink colour! It catches the light really nicely, and just is a lovely sparkling colour! It is not glitter, it is just heavily shimmery! Because of how shimmery/ sparkly it is, I found it hard to pick up the exact colour of the polish. 

My flash is making the colour seem more of a red colour, when it is a hot pink

The image on the left, with no flash, is very precise to the actual colour of the polish :D

As you can see, the bottle is tiny! It holds a teeny 3.75ml of product, compared to the full size version which holds 15ml!

Disclaimer: This photograph is not mine, I found it on google images, but I thought I would include it as it shows a true representative of the colour! :)

I really like the formula of this product, and I have had it on for 2 days so far, and have not had any chipping! It is a very glamourous colour haha! I think I may have to wear it on a few more occasions, to be able to decide whether I would like to purchase it full size!

My Rating (for the colour and the quality): 4/5 

Have any of you tried this colour?

Urban Decay Lip Junkie Lip Gloss - Crush: Review

Hello Readers!

If you  have read my last couple of posts, you will know that I have been to Paris! This is my last beauty review from the things which I have bought whilst I was over there!

I picked up this Urban Decay Lip Junkie Lip Gloss in Sephora, in the shade Crush. It is a girly pink, slightly edging towards a more hot pink colour, but it doesn't look too vibrant on the lips. The last photo, with the swatch, is the exact colour, as the lighting makes the others look a tad brighter than it is!

Urban Decay say it is a "Cooling Lip Gloss" and it contains an ingredient called 'Maxi-Lip' which is a non-irritant plumping ingredient. I had done a bit of research on Maxi-Lip, and it claims that if you use it everyday for a whole month, your lips plump to an average of 40%!

It is very creamy and not sticky at all. I hate lip glosses when they are sticky! I love the packaging! The tube is a squeezy plastic tube, and the screw on lid is a gorgeous patterned metal lid! The lid was one of the main things which attracted me to this product if I'm going to be honest! The colour obviously being the first though!

I bought this for €18, but you can buy this from Debenhams here for £13! I think it is totally worth it!

My Rating 4/5

Sephora Rouge Cream Lipstick - Sexy Game Review

Hello Readers!

If you  have read my last couple of posts, you will know that I have been to Paris!

Whilst on my venture in Sephora, I picked up one of their 'Rouge Cream' lipsticks in the colour 'Sexy Game 12'.

I really like the packaging! You can't really see it as well as I would of liked (due to rubbish lighting) But the lid is just plain black plastic, and then around the bottom of the base, it is a shinier black plastic displaying the word 'SEPHORA'. Like the MUA lipsticks, on the bottom of this one has the colour of the lipstick. 

It is a nice deep red/ rosy brown colour. It is amazingly pigmented, within one swipe your whole lip is covered! It is very creamy not dry like most Barry M lipsticks! The colour that it is showing up on my lip picture is more accurate to the real colour, as the lighting is making it look more red/orange in the other pictures!

If I get the chance again, I would like to buy more of these! To me, it is a tad too dark for an everyday colour, but I think it would be nice as an evening/ more sophisticated colour! 

You can view more colours here which is on the US Sephora website.

I bought this €10.90, which is approx. £8.70.

Sephora Long Lasting Eye Liner Review

Hello Readers!

If you have read my past couple of posts, you will know that I had been to Paris! When in Sephora, I picked up a few bits which caught my eye!

This post is about Sephora's own brand of Long Lasting Eye Liner. I hadn't heard of this product, so I bought it 'blind'. 

THIS. EYELINER. IS. AMAZING. :D Before I went to paris, I was still on the hunt for the perfect eyeliner, but still had not succeeded! So I went into Sephora on the second day I was in Paris, and picked this up. The main thing which attracted it to me, was how thick the brush is! I hate the skinny little brushes, as I like to create a fairly thick line on my eye, and with a thin brush, it takes a lot more precision! This has a spongey textured 'brush' and creates a perfect line!

I tried this out as soon as I got back to our hotel, and fell in love! I wore it for the rest of the day (which it happened to be raining :( ) and it did not budge! I love it so much, I had to go back into Sephora the next day, to stock up! This eyeliner is still a firm favourite of mine! 

I got mine in the colour 01 Black/Noir. It cost me €10.90 which is approx. £8.70.

Sephora Fresh Glossy Gloss Review

Hello Readers!

If you read my last post, you will know that I have been to Paris. Before I went, I knew I must take a trip into Sephora, because as far as I know, there aren't any here in the UK!

It is such an amazing shop! All make-up lovers would be in make-up heaven! It is faaaab! Here are a few photographs of inside Sephora! *Swoon*

Doesn't it look amazing?!

Anyway onto the review!

A lot of people steer away from blue lipgloss. So did I, until I tried this out! It doesn't come out vibrant blue, and people won't be able to tell that you have blue lipgloss on! The blue in it helps your teeth look  whiter. This is why blue toned pink lipsticks (such as Lovelorn by Mac) are a big hit! 

It is not sticky, which is a bonus! Sephora had so many colours to choose from, but as far as I am aware, this one is the only 'fresh breath sensation' gloss. It is mint flavored, and once you have had it on your lips for at least 3 seconds, it starts to tingle your lips! Its nothing too uncomfortable, I'm not sure if it claims to plump your lips.. if it is, it doesn't work on me!

Overall, it is a nice product, but not one that when it runs out, I will feel the need to panic and pay excessive postage fees for another! I'm sure you could find similar products in Boots or Superdrug!

You get 15ml of product for €8.50, which is around £6.90.

My Rating: 3/5

Bioderma Crealine H2O Cleanser Review

Hello Readers!

Sorry about the long delay in blog posts, I have been busy with college still, and revising for exams coming up this month! :(

At the end of April I went to Paris for a few days, and did a bit of shopping! Today I will review some Bioderma which I had read so much about, so needed to try it out for myself! When I get the time, I will review all the other little purchases which I bought.

 This cleanser is so gentle, you wouldn't even know it is cleanser if you were given it to use in a label-free bottle! It is colourless and scentless, but removes every bit of makeup. Including waterproof mascara! I have fairly sensitive skin, and this does not irritate it at all!

To remove my daily make up, I usually put a fair amount on 2 cotton pads, and use one on each eye (But I wear a line of eyeliner on my top eyelid, so requires a bit more to get it all off!) and then I use one more cotton pad for my face! Once you have used it you feel refreshed and clean! To me, it leaves a slight tight feeling on my face, but it is nothing uncomfortable. It is a wonder product!

Like I said, I got this in Paris in one of the many pharmacies. I got 2 X 500ml Bottles for €18 which is approx. £14.50, so £7.25 a bottle. It is quick a struggle it get your hands on it over here, but if you really feel you need to try it out, and will not be able to access it from abroad, you can buy it on Amazon here for just over £20 for a 500ml bottle.

My Rating: 5/5
