Teeny Greeny Binkini nails!


Another treat from mother dearest, this beauty, as with most Sally Hansen products I will post about was found in my go to shop, Poundland! I had a wee browse of the world wide web and have discovered the Xtreme Wear comes in more colours, more colours that I love and will have to buy somehow!


I love the name, Teeny Greeny Bikini! It's so cute and summery sounding. Not that I'd ever wear a teeny greeny bikini, but I like it all the same!


My all time favourite thing about Sally Hansen polishes are the brushes. Long, thin and great coverage. Amazing! However, getting an up close picture in detail is very difficult. I must improve my photography skills!


From top to bottom; 4 coats, 3 coats, 2 coats, 1 coat
As you can see from the picture above, it takes at least 3 coats to become fully opaque. I prefer polish like this so any time I wear this polish it will be 3 or 4 coats each time. It's a reasonable sized bottle though, 11.8ml, so it will last quite a wee while.

I am the first to admit that my nails are in shocking condition! I need to find an amazing hand cream, remember to keep using my ridge filler and just generally take better care of my hands! Need to save up some pennies and maybe go to a wee nail lady, get myself a manicure!

Sally Hansen Natural Beauty Lip Colour



 Hello lovelies! As you can see from the title, today I'm talking about Sally Hansen Natural Beauty Lip Colours. I go these two beauties from, would you believe it, Poundland! I should become an ambassador for that place soon!


A colour I always wear and a new one. Mix it up a bit!



I love these two lipsticks. Adore them! You can probably tell from the wear on them both! They are so nourishing and look at the colour! Despite my undying love for red lips, I actually prefer the Golden Berry. It's such a nice dark brown but still with red tones. So it's a bit of both, something new and something old.

The only downside to buying these gorgeous shades from Poundland is that I probably won't find them again in there, shouldn't take too long to find them on the net. Just hope I don't have to pay too much over what I paid for these.

Do you wear Sally Hansen makeup or just use their nail care?

What's On My Face Today


The past few days I've not been wearing much make up. Enough for a wee natural glow and a stand out feature.
Todays products are Maybelline Dream Fresh BB Cream (3rd day of using this sample!), Constance Carroll Mega Volume Waterproof Mascara, Sally Hansen Natural Beauty Colour Comfort Lip Colour in Golden Berry and Sally Hansen Natural Butter Lip Shine.

Apart from the BB sample, I purchased all these products from Poundland! The mascara is great for during the day if you don't want out there lashes, just a nice bit of coverage. It would probably look better if I could find my eyelash curlers! And my lips feel amazing! Both the lipstick and the lip butter are nourishing, the colour is great and I think they look fab together! It's a nice rich brown with the shine of the gloss with a golden shimmer to it.

The BB Cream, oh my word I love it! I don't think I'll ever be going back to foundation. I used to have so many problems with foundation; finding the right shade (casper skin!), decent coverage, value for money. Plus it would make my skin feel really heavy, like the foundation was just sitting on top of my face whereas with the BB, it feels like my skin absorbs it and makes me look great! Nice natural, healthy glow. Love it, love it, love it!

This is my first What's On My Face Today, hopefully not my last! Hope you enjoyed it :)

Pale skin



Ok so I am as pale as Casper which means I've always been a bit scared of blusher. I have a really pale pink one with a wee shimmer to it which is lovely on if I just put a wee bit.

But this one, I am so scared of it, I've not even opened it yet! I got it as part of a wee 3 piece set. It looks way too dark for my skin. Like I'd just look ridiculous if I wore it.

Am I right or is there some way I could wear this? I would like to try a blush darker than the one I have just for something different every once in a while.

Leave me any tips or suggestions below in the comments section!

If I can't find a way to wear this then I might as well sell it to someone if I can. Another reason I think I haven't opened it.

Enjoy the close up of my awfully painted thumb. Boo Technic!
