Primark Nail Polish - Who knew it would be this good?
Hey guys! So I was shopping recently in Penneys (Primark whatever) and I came across their range of nail polishes. I have two polishes from them from a while back, one from their Glo baby glo nail polishes (which glow under UV light and look so cool) and one of their Anjelica nail polishes. I adore the Glo one, its super opaque, creamy and a lovely polish to work with. On the other hand the Anjelica one I purchased was not so good. It was watery and came out a horrible colour. I had purchased what I thought was a nice orange called Hip Hop, but once applied to your nails it turns a gross neon pink colour which was not what I had wanted. This put me of purchasing any other colours from this line, until I came across what I think is their Spring/Summer collection. This collection has the most gorgeous pastel shades ever! Yellow, pink, orange and blue, I love them! I picked up four, a blue, a purple, pink and a coral colour. Glo Baby Glo Polish Here are the colours from the spring collection that I picked up. So there you have it guys, I would highly recommend you check these polishes out they are amazing and I love them! I am currently wearing sorbet on my nails and its such a pretty color and compliments my skin tone well. I hope you guys enjoyed this and I will be back soon with a mini nail polish haul! Bye guys :)

Revlon Lip Butters: Review
Hey guys! Its been a very long time since I blogged. Well to be honest I never really began... :/ This month I decided that I would get my blogging back on track and try to at least do a few posts a week. To start of this kind of new years resolution ( on my blog at least) I decided what better way to begin than with the ever so popular Revlon lip butters.
These lip butters are HUGE all over the internet. People have been tweeting about them, youtube videos have been jam packed with these cute little lipbalms. The two I decided to pick up were 'Cotton Candy' and 'Lollipop'. In my local Boots there was only four to choose from anyways so I had very little choice to begin with.
Ill start off with Cotton Candy. This is a light pink colour with a tiny bit of an almost gold shimmer running through it. Its absolutely gorgeous on your hand and looks very pigmented but once on your lips it doesn't really show up too much. Personally I still like it as I an just through it on and not have to worry too much, but I'm sure most people would rather it be pigmented.
Next we have Lollipop. This is perhaps my favorite out of the two. Its very pigmented even on the lips. Its a bright pink again but more on the darker side and less pastel pink than Cotton Candy. It again has a slight gold shimmer running through it. I personally would have preferred it to have no shimmer but hey what can you do right?
So overall I think the Revlon Lip Butters are great and I would recommend them. As far as them moisturizing your lips, I personally do not notice any difference to mine. The only thing that would put me off purchasing another one of them is the €11 price tag. Steeep...
