Rimmel Apocalips

All aboard the late train! Yes I'm about 3 months late on blogging about these little wonders. I remember when these first came out and the massive hype over them caused them to be constantly sold out whenever I tried to get to even look at what colours were available. So when I eventually did I spent what felt like hours at the stand look and swatching all the colours.

In the end I went for 'Big Bang' and 'Celestial'. I chose 'Big Bang' as I love the look of a red lip on a night out but sometimes red lippy can be a bit messy after a cocktail or two. So I thought I would try out these to see what lasting effects they have.

I chose 'Celestial' as I wanted a everyday pink colour I can wear well.. everyday! I have worn 'Celestial' a couple of times and have received compliments so I know this is definitely a winner but have yet to try 'Big Bang' out so I'm excited for my next big night out so I can trial it.

Have you tried these out and if you have what colours did you buy? What are your thoughts on them?

NOTD | Back To Black

Okay so they aren't black as per say but I couldn't think of a better title for this post. As much as I am loving the pastel nails I felt like I wanted a bit of a change. Maybe it's to do with the major snow we had last night and today but I wanted to go for a dark colour. I showed this polish in my last post (My Nail Polish Haul) so decided on this midnight blue colour.

I always use my OPI Nail Envy as my base coat. This was 2/3 coats and finished off with my Rimmel top coat. I love this polish for the pure fact at how fast it dries. As I've mentioned before the only thing I hate about doing my nails is the waiting about for them to dry properly so I don't get that sheet print on them when I go to bed! So the fact that these polishes are touch dry in 60 seconds is a god send!

Nail Polish Haul

Hey Lovelies

So first off I want to apologize for the lack of posts this past week. I was suffering bad with a constant toothache so found out I have a tooth infection and have hardly been able to eat. This has resulted in me having little to no energy and not really felt up to sitting at a laptop thinking of things to write. Anyway I am on anti-biotics and feeling 100 times better so I'm back!

Today I thought I'd show you a little haul of Nail polishes I bought the other day.

So first off in Boots I had a voucher for my Advantage card that if I spent £20 I would get 200 bonus points. I don't think I have mentioned on my blog yet that my plan for this year is to not spend any of my advantage card points and build them up throughout the year and then come December I will treat myself to something nice. I know a lot of you beauty bloggers did this last year and I was very jealous of some of the goodies you got!

So I wanted to buy the No7 Cleansing Water (A post on that will be up soon) so I needed to find other goodies to make it up to £20. Along with a new mascara I thought I would purchase some new polishes.

I was after the Spring colours from BarryM since they were released and everywhere has been sold out so I had to grab some when I had the chance. I picked up the ever so famous 'Greenberry' and the lovely coral shade 'Papaya'.

I also had a browse of the Rimmel 60 seconds polishes as one of my pet peeves with painting my nails is waiting for them to dry so I love these polishes as they do what they say on the tin, touch dry in 60 seconds. I picked up '440 Sun Downer' I think this shade will be perfect for summer and I don't own an orange this bright. I also got '850 Aye, Aye, Sailor'. Even though were getting into Spring (Well besides the snow we had today!) I still love to sport a dark shade every now and again.

I then popped into Poundland and whilst browsing the tiny beauty section I came across these 2 glitter polishes from Chit Chat in 'Gold' and 'Violet'. I've seen these on some blogs so was interested in them and who can turn down glitter polishes for £1!

What colour polishes have you been into lately?
