<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I was lucky enough to be a winner in the Latest in Beauty Facebook competition to win one of these boxes to try for free but I would 100% have brought this if I didnt win. </span><br />

<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">In the time I have been blogging I had a period where I was obsessed with beauty boxes… but after a few disappointing Birchboxes and a lack of desire to spend £15 a month on the Look Fantastic beauty boxes, I kind of gave up on them. This box has renewed my faith in the almighty beauty boxes because it is jam packed with things I love.</span><br />

<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">So whats in the box?</span><br />
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">First of all - how adorable is the box and the packaging inside? It is one of the prettiest I have seen (excluding the Harvey Nicholls for Glossybox box).</span><br />

<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Inside there are 9 products, most of which are full sized.</span><br />
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #444444;">Ill start with the thing I am least excited by so its out the way and that is the </span></span><span style="background-color: white; font-size: 16px; font-style: inherit; line-height: 29px;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>Rimmel Oh My Gloss! Lip Gloss by Rita Ora</b></span></span><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">. I wish I was a lipgloss lover but I'm just not so sadly this doesn't float my boat….yet. I am in love with the colour (Snob) and really want to like this so I am going to give this ago and hopefully my mind can be changed!</span><br />
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #444444;">Next we have </span><span style="background-color: white; font-size: 16px; font-style: inherit; line-height: 29px;"><b>Model Co Creme Rouge Cheek & Lips</b><span style="color: #444444;"> in the shade Just Peachy. This is a very bright reddy peach colour that is so perfect for that spring wind swept cheek and the fact is it multi purpose is even better.</span></span></span><br />

<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="font-style: inherit; line-height: 29px;"><span style="color: #444444;">Then we have two polishes from the </span><b>Revlon Gel Colourstay Envy Collection</b><span style="color: #444444;">. These are the Diamond Gel Topcoat and a lovely pink red </span></span><span style="color: #444444; line-height: 29px;">long wear</span><span style="color: #444444; font-style: inherit; line-height: 29px;"> nail enamel.

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #444444;"><span style="font-style: inherit; line-height: 29px;">Of course there is a mini brow palette in the box which is the </span></span><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-style: inherit; line-height: 29px;"><b>Beauty UK High Brow Kit</b><span style="color: #444444;">. This is a great kit for most hair type and it even comes with a setting wax to save you money! There is also some </span></span><span style="color: #444444; line-height: 29px;">miniature</span><span style="color: #444444; font-style: inherit; line-height: 29px;"> tweezers and a slanted brush which are great for travel.</span></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #444444;"><span style="font-style: inherit; line-height: 29px;">Then we have the </span></span><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-style: inherit; line-height: 29px;"><b>Nuxe Creme Fraiche de Beaute Mask</b><span style="color: #444444;"> which I have had in a beauty box before and loved so </span></span><span style="color: #444444; line-height: 29px;">I'm</span><span style="color: #444444; font-style: inherit; line-height: 29px;"> happy to not have to </span><span style="color: #444444; line-height: 29px;">purchase</span><span style="color: #444444; font-style: inherit; line-height: 29px;"> a new one yet. This is a great mask for clearing up any dry patches. I have very oily skin but as we are just getting out of winter I have a few pesky dry patches and I can put this mask all over my face without it affecting my oiliness. </span></span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #444444;"><span style="font-style: inherit; line-height: 29px;">I was also very happy to see a perfume sample in the box because spring is the perfect time to try out a new more floral scent! </span></span><span style="background-color: white; font-size: 16px; font-style: inherit; line-height: 29px;"><b>Elie Saab L’Eau Couture</b><span style="color: #444444;"> is the perfume including and although t</span></span><span style="background-color: white; color: #444444;"><span style="font-style: inherit; line-height: 29px;">he sample size is a little </span></span><span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; line-height: 29px;">disappointing,</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #444444;"><span style="font-style: inherit; line-height: 29px;"> with all the products you are getting for your money in the box already I </span></span><span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; line-height: 29px;">can't</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #444444;"><span style="font-style: inherit; line-height: 29px;"> really complain. It is a great light floral scent that I can really see myself purchasing.</span></span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-style: inherit; line-height: 29px;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #444444;"><span style="font-style: inherit; line-height: 29px;">Then I know a lot of people will be super happy to see a product from Morroccanoil which is the </span></span><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-style: inherit; line-height: 29px;"><b>Moroccanoil Intense Hydrating Mask</b><span style="color: #444444;">. I </span></span><span style="color: #444444; line-height: 29px;">can't</span><span style="color: #444444; font-style: inherit; line-height: 29px;"> say I have ever been as blown away with their products as everyone else seems to be but I do love a hair mask so this makes me super happy!</span></span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #444444;"><span style="font-style: inherit; line-height: 29px;">Lastly and </span><span style="line-height: 29px;">definitely</span><span style="font-style: inherit; line-height: 29px;"> not least we have my favourite product in the box which is the </span></span><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-style: inherit; line-height: 29px;"><b>Kiko Long Lasting Stick Eyeshadow in 07</b><span style="color: #444444;">. This is a stunning gold shadow stick which is something I have been wanting to order for ages but </span></span><span style="color: #444444; line-height: 29px;">haven't</span><span style="color: #444444; font-style: inherit; line-height: 29px;"> been able to justify the £25 minimum order fee on the Kiko website! I </span><span style="color: #444444; line-height: 29px;">can't</span><span style="color: #444444; font-style: inherit; line-height: 29px;"> wait to try this!</span></span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-style: inherit; line-height: 29px;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></span>

They have also included a 12 month subscription to Glamour Magazine which is amazing! All you have to do is type in the code online and bamm you get a year of magazines.</span></span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-style: inherit; line-height: 29px;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></span>
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-style: inherit; line-height: 29px;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This box has blown me away! The subscription is worth getting this box alone as the whole box is worth a massive £99, but you can get it for £16.99 from </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><a href="http://www.latestinbeauty.com/glamour/">Latest in Beauty.com</a></span><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">.</span></span></span><br />

So when I first started blogging which is coming up to a year ago now, I was massively into decals especially from Born Pretty Store and Sassy Nailz. They were a super easy way to create nail art without having to actually sit down for ages drawing lines etc… The other day I came across my decal folder and decided to create another mani using decals!<br />
<br />

<br />
I love all things floral decals and these caught my eye straight away!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
I debated just doing an accent nail, mainly because I love the polish I used as a base from Rimmel. But I decided to go all out and do all of my nails with a decal because it only takes a few minutes and the end result is so pretty.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
These decals also come with little glitter dots in the centre of some of the roses which makes it look like I put loads of effort into the mani and the truth is it took me about 15 mins! Ooops!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcjLyVPTRH55d2oh2yTSSvuL0N1aowYMNj38PcvcuVx7_yh5BPK9bigAS6rCJs_mMzwnzGobCbF9pHuUMASQWgcWF18__e_IwFf5ywkRXAP86n8-kEJSXR4O2LbRxeMRXsvpPe8Ax3tjgh/s1600/Antique-Floral-Rose-2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcjLyVPTRH55d2oh2yTSSvuL0N1aowYMNj38PcvcuVx7_yh5BPK9bigAS6rCJs_mMzwnzGobCbF9pHuUMASQWgcWF18__e_IwFf5ywkRXAP86n8-kEJSXR4O2LbRxeMRXsvpPe8Ax3tjgh/s1600/Antique-Floral-Rose-2.jpg" height="400" width="266" /></a></div>
<br />
So I started with my base which is a Kate polish from Rimmel London called Soul Session and then when they were dry I began cutting the decals off the sheet. Sadly these don't seem to be on Born Pretty Store anymore for me to share a link but they have so many pretty ones on there still so I wouldn't worry!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Once I have cut the decals out you dimly peel off the plastic cover and dip into water for about 20 seconds. Then slide the decal off the backing paper and place over the nail. If the decal isn't sticking very well just pat the decal with some tissue.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAFCMyrJeMrqI9xcAktPVIctzfJhN2c-vnnR6Fq9NGIePIPRD4Xc-dEW8GciFs3e4FVAT6ptYmFqz7msPW8Ss5zzMuFTkmVu2OtijPe7g-DUqIgwdsgvyz0-xmHbdmyJttT2DEU0NY3zBN/s1600/Antique-Floral-Rose-6.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAFCMyrJeMrqI9xcAktPVIctzfJhN2c-vnnR6Fq9NGIePIPRD4Xc-dEW8GciFs3e4FVAT6ptYmFqz7msPW8Ss5zzMuFTkmVu2OtijPe7g-DUqIgwdsgvyz0-xmHbdmyJttT2DEU0NY3zBN/s1600/Antique-Floral-Rose-6.jpg" height="426" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Then I sealed it all in with my Seche Vite and cleaned up the excess decal with acetone!<br />
<br />
Ta Dah! So simple and so effective!<br />
<br />
What do you think? Feel free to leave your links to decals below I would love to see what you have been making!<br />

<br />
As a girl with super oily skin, I get very excited when I see anything with Matte or Anti Shine written on it so this caught my eye straight away… I have to admit I don't like the packaging. I think it is a rather ridiculous size for the amount of product you actually get and wish it was a little more compact. But non the less I still wanted to try it and into my basket it went.<br />

I have been using this for about a week now and I can't say that I'm sure it does much? At a usual price of £8.99 I would expect to see a big difference in the time it took shine to appear on my face. I still get oily pretty quickly and it doesn't really fill in my pores enough to just use this as a primer on its own so I have still be using my Smashbox Pore Minimising Primer on top…<br />
<br />

<br />
Having said that it does create a really lovely base for my makeup and I have noticed that my makeup lasts a bit longer in terms of the fact it doesn't melt off quite as much. I still look just as oily but my makeup kind of seems to stay there anyway since using this.<br />

<br />
It has a very silicony feel, similar to the professional but a lot more velvety and soft to touch. I am trying to find a better way to apply it because although I don't love it I would like to use it up now I've paid for it.. and I hate the sponge applicator method!<br />

<br />
I don't think it is a holy grail product and I wouldn't say go out and buy it now but if you aren't particularly oily and are looking for a lightweight primer that keeps your makeup in place then I would say it does that job! Its just a shame is doesn't do the job is says it will!<br />
<br />
I also think this would be a great product to wear by itself because on its own on the skin it does kind of just blur imperfections very subtly!<br />
<br />
So have you got any holy grail products for oily skin? Please leave them in the comments below!<br />
<br />
Hope you liked this post.<br />

<br />
Im super excited for Valentines day, even if my boyfriend isn't.. I guess I'm just soppy at heart… so I decided to create some nails a bit early! And I am hoping to create some more in the week if I have time to give you guys some quick and easy ideas!<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br /><br />

<br />
So to create these I just painted random nails different shades of pink and red, then used the dry brush method to create crazy lines across all the nails also in random pinks and reds. I sealed all this in with very thin coat of Seche Vite and waited for it to dry.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWd8mqPmXm295hCDg3D9SV9-lDlxtrW4KjkwdwJ-fuJ5C-ANdBkKG0K_FVuMi6U1D2kpeI3_Q-kFXk8Q75omDtaKBvfQORRTW-zjOsuP6NR6RhKaBPTOg-NYrZt__QXDXdvNXGnG_-XWZb/s1600/Valentines-Heart-Nails-1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWd8mqPmXm295hCDg3D9SV9-lDlxtrW4KjkwdwJ-fuJ5C-ANdBkKG0K_FVuMi6U1D2kpeI3_Q-kFXk8Q75omDtaKBvfQORRTW-zjOsuP6NR6RhKaBPTOg-NYrZt__QXDXdvNXGnG_-XWZb/s1600/Valentines-Heart-Nails-1.jpg" height="266" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
Then I simply cut a big strip of cello tape and placed it on the back of my hand and pulled it on and off again a few times so it would mostly lose its sticky. (This is so it doesn't pull the nail polish off) Then I cut out little hearts and stuck them wherever I fancied on my nails.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2d9I_y02jKfcorbc2fxeAjoU6y0eLY2lfxboWte_2yksMqsFcCKpX-Sl5V20VIrRGgz1wWzQZN-F4-NuvX6tfEy73FuJZe7Wh8UlWiHwfGSpcG5KjXaOTJDiuZHMvSCCPe_ZnnfmFZ7Zq/s1600/Valentines-Heart-Nails-4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2d9I_y02jKfcorbc2fxeAjoU6y0eLY2lfxboWte_2yksMqsFcCKpX-Sl5V20VIrRGgz1wWzQZN-F4-NuvX6tfEy73FuJZe7Wh8UlWiHwfGSpcG5KjXaOTJDiuZHMvSCCPe_ZnnfmFZ7Zq/s1600/Valentines-Heart-Nails-4.jpg" height="251" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
I painted one nail at a time with a thick coat of Models Own White Light Hypergel and quickly pulled off the hearts and repeated this for all nails. Then after a quick clean up using the acetone I applied one final coat of Seche Vite. Ta Dah!<br />
<br />
Im pretty happy with how these turned out and I love the dry brush showing through!<br />
<br />
Hope you liked these nails and feel free to leave your valentines nail links in the comments!<br />

Peace.<br />

Sorry for not posting last night but to make up for it I have a super tasty Treacle Sponge recipe that is great with ice cream or custard! I don't know about anyone else but this was my favourite pudding as a child but I don't have time for all that steaming and saucepan rubbish so I have created my own oven baked sponge which is so delicious! I hope you like it!</span><br />

It is the Zoeva Buffing Brush 104 that I purchased from <a href="http://www.beautybay.com/zoeva/">Beauty Bay UK</a>. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I picked this up after watching a few you tubers use a similar shaped brush and it seemed to make liquid foundation apply effortlessly. I was kind of due a new foundation brush as I have been using the Real Techniques Buffing Brush for a good few years.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This brush was £12.95 and it was very hard to not add other brushes from Zoeva to my basket but I really don't have the money to buy anymore. The thing I love about Zoeva is that they do not test on animals and have a vegan brush range. They appear to have a good sense of corporate responsibility both socially and environmentally. I would happily purchase more without feeling quilty that they were created irresponsibly.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Since using this brush I have become obsessed. It is a flat kabuki brush and I really understand while they have called it a buffing brush. Just like I have seen on youtube you can use it by patting the foundation into the skin using the brush… but you can also move the brush around is swirling motions to create an effortless and flawless finish. The shape is perfect for all of the parts of the face because the bristles simply bend into any dip or crevice. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Asides from the brush looking beautiful it also fits perfectly into my hand because of the slightly chunkier handle and I love that it comes in this little carry case. Obviously I won't put it back in this bag everyday so it seems a bit pointless.. but I do almost always run out of space in my make up bag when I go away, so now I have a bag I can put my makeup brushes in and carry them separately to create more room in my make up bag.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As you can tell I am in love with this brush! It is so soft and I would really like to add some of the rose gold collection to my brush stash and also the powder power brush. Just need to save up some money first!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

Two posts for you today and kicking them off with this Burgandy Mani I created using Essie Sole Mate and a trusty old black from Collection.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This was a really hard mani to photograph because the colours were so similar to each other that you couldn't really see the details. I had originally done this deliberately to create a kind of secret mani that just looked like one colour but was actually more interesting. I hadn't really thought about how I would actually show you guys what it looked like.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It was super easy to create this mani as all I did was paint a base of Sole Mate and then add polka dots with the black and seal it all in with my Seche Vite. This mani literally took like 15 mins including drying time.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Here I have massively edited the picture so that you can see the details so bare in mind it didn't look that the pics above and below.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I really liked how they turned out and think that people who have to wear plain nails to work could definitely get away with this look and it could even be done with lighter colours such as a pretty light pink and white dots.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Sadly I am having a massive problem with my base coats at the moment. For some reason no matter what base I use my polish has started peeling off within like 2 days. I don't know whether its because I work in a workshop lifting heavy items and sanding furniture etc or whether my nails have just changed, but if you have any got to base coats you would recommend, please leave them below.</span><br />

Melts are a type of candle wax that you place in the top of an oil burner or melt warmer to create a nice scent in the room.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgpEFK3IyguDFnHSJL3UB5JLWVqRCwc4o2NMiIkVGxleQ7rbi2bVrrYqpLVgrdVwoFfbzPjxoZ_BYwYoy0zuRtYwqeeEIltBgnEbiWSKjtN4GOHs29GpqEDkNkFJipmSX_xxsxGsh-bwX2c/s1600/Busy-Bee-Candles-Review-2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgpEFK3IyguDFnHSJL3UB5JLWVqRCwc4o2NMiIkVGxleQ7rbi2bVrrYqpLVgrdVwoFfbzPjxoZ_BYwYoy0zuRtYwqeeEIltBgnEbiWSKjtN4GOHs29GpqEDkNkFJipmSX_xxsxGsh-bwX2c/s1600/Busy-Bee-Candles-Review-2.jpg" height="398" width="640" /></span></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Most people will know of the Yankee Candle melts but I much prefer these! These are mini wax melts created by a Welsh company called <a href="http://www.busybeecandles.co.uk/product-category/magik-beanz/?orderby=popularity">Busy Bee Candles</a>, which they call<a href="http://www.busybeecandles.co.uk/product-category/magik-beanz/?orderby=popularity"> Magik Beanz</a>. The idea is to place a couple of these into the top of your burner and leave to melt, but because they are so small and individually shaped, they can be mixed with other scent to create your own magical cocktail! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<a name='more'></a><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I picked up two pots of these when I went to Tenby with my extended family but when I found out they had an online shop I went a bit mad and picked up more (and some for my mums birthday shh).</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUC3Rd_ancsqldIId5U4t9ock24TWZYvZyPVJr7f1mBgO8Gyrvao1FGZwDk5h8ENNjwTkvfpeOhN9BKgzXfKae5Uf5_BRMbi-C53jmq-U1Ao72504jF1nK30Q3Qma0PsxQc0c_Wh-Sn6IX/s1600/Busy-Bee-Candles-Review-4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUC3Rd_ancsqldIId5U4t9ock24TWZYvZyPVJr7f1mBgO8Gyrvao1FGZwDk5h8ENNjwTkvfpeOhN9BKgzXfKae5Uf5_BRMbi-C53jmq-U1Ao72504jF1nK30Q3Qma0PsxQc0c_Wh-Sn6IX/s1600/Busy-Bee-Candles-Review-4.jpg" height="426" width="640" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">They have hundreds of different scents and I have about 10 of them but will definitely be trying more! My favourites are Mango & Papaya Smoothie and Strawberry Crush but all of them are lovely so far. They are also great because there are different strengths you can choose from if you have a more sensitive nose…</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">They say to place 5 beans in at a time but I have only been using 2 at once at that is plenty to fill the room with the scent and you can re burn them twice before they loose their smell. Once that happens simply place your burner in the freezer for 10 mins and the wax will pop off the top so you can throw it away. Or if you have no room in the freezer I like to put a tea light in once lit, wait for about 30 seconds before the wax can melt properly and pop it out with my fingers. Be careful though.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Overall these are amazing. I look forward to choosing a new scent everyday when I get home from work and I feel calm and relaxed with one on. Busy Bee also so candles, wax tarts and burners. My burner was a gift from my boyfriend and not from Busy Bee but they have some great ones. As you can see mine is pretty well used and needs a good wash!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If you are interested in trying some they often have 5% off codes on but one pot of Magik Beanz containing 15 beans costs £1.75 which is hardly anything for nearly 8 fresh uses and 8 other second uses. They really are worth it and they cost pennies. Checkout their website <a href="http://www.busybeecandles.co.uk/product-category/magik-beanz/?orderby=popularity">here</a>.</span><br />

<a name='more'></a><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">First up we have <b>Stila Lip Glaze in the shade Glaze which is full size (RRP £15)</b> which most people will probably be really happy with but I hate anything remotely glossy or sticky so I'm not even going to open this. It will just be a gift for someone. I am really interested in trying other products from Stila though…</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Next is <b>Caudalie Vinoperfect Radiance Serum (RRP £4.50 for 10ml)</b> which I will admit I might use. My Elemis serum is running low and it could use this after but its not really targeted to any of my skin problems so I'm not sure whether it would have the same effect. It feels a bit like this box is targeted to people older than my age.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Then we have <b>Embrace Matcha Green Tea (RRP £24.95 for 25 bags)</b> which sadly is also something I won't use as I hate green tea but my boyfriend will love this and I do kind of think it sounds cool. It can be used for cold or hot drinks and sounds like its jam packed of pretty good things!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Also we have <b>HealGel Intensice (RRP £3.75 for this 5ml tube</b>) which is not particularly attractive to me at all as I have oily skin which is usually pretty healthy. I am going to safe this as in these cold winter months I might get a dry patch (although unlikely) but you never know!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFTmCyM3umNQ-XAfe0oseGaVJcmB2_ZsS22XOOG1c0VO52BDp2RpmtUoGfsPRkeE6r7SZHnSDl4kpzSsQPHMw0Et1Fs2LZhwIFuQE5XNaaoEby21A2Vah9Mz6cySCZEn2NBHG7LvLXNPaH/s1600/Birchbox-Jan-2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFTmCyM3umNQ-XAfe0oseGaVJcmB2_ZsS22XOOG1c0VO52BDp2RpmtUoGfsPRkeE6r7SZHnSDl4kpzSsQPHMw0Et1Fs2LZhwIFuQE5XNaaoEby21A2Vah9Mz6cySCZEn2NBHG7LvLXNPaH/s1600/Birchbox-Jan-2.jpg" height="426" width="640" /></span></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Then the box included <b>Phillip Kingsley Body Building Conditioner (RRP £1.52 for 20ml)</b> which I will take on holiday but I'm not really excited to use. When it comes to conditioner I like it to be repairing or nourishing. I prefer body building in my shampoo, but at least this means I won't need to go and buy a travel size hair conditioner for summer holidays.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Lastly I received the <b>ActivBod Cooling Finish Lotion (RRP £2.40)</b> which I also have no use for. Im pretty bad when it comes to exercising but even if I went to the gym everyday I don't actually know what this would do that would make me ever want to buy a full size…</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Sadly I am very disappointed in this box and with my subscription coming to an end I'm not too sure what to do… I loved my first months but I have not been too impressed recently.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This box was worth <b>£28.16 </b>which isn't awful as you pay around £10 for the box. But considering I will use about £5 worth of this stuff I am defiantly not happy.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">There was also an excerise band in the box which I have given to my mum but is no use to me really..</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">What did you think of this months Birchbox?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Peace.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

Quick photo filled post for today which I hope you will enjoy because I have had these nails on for a week now and I probably won't take them off for as long as possible!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Last christmas I brought myself a scarf from Urban Outfitters that is dark purple , tan, white and black. I was obsessed with this scarf all of last winter/spring and the same for this winter so I thought I would create some nails inspired by them.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Although these nails are not the dark purple of the scarf they look so much like it that I'm so happy with how they turned out. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I chose to use Essie Bikini So Teeny for a brighter base, purely because I missed that beautiful colour and needed to use it. But as these turned out so well I will definitely re create them with a darker polish on the base. Let me know if there are any colours you would like to see together in a check mani.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">To create these I took this stunning checkered plate from Born Pretty Store. It worked so so well and I'm really impressed.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">To start I painted my base of Bikini So Teeny and once dry began to add random stripes of tan and white polish where I thought appropriate. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Then I took my favourite black from Rimmel london and begun stamping over the lines. I will admit I missed it up a few times and had to gently scratch off the wrong lines but that is the beauty of stamping… You can correct mistakes easily!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">After a little bit of clean up I simply top coated with my Seche Vite and left to dry!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Taa Dahh! I love them and I think a few people will too! I know they aren't perfect and have a few smudges but they are good enough for me!</span><br />

I realise that this is pretty late and people did these kind of 'favourites of 2014' posts ages ago but yanno… I was ill so give a girl a break.</span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">All of the products are items that I have worn non stop throughout 2014 or fell in love with in 2014 and I know I will still use them for a long time to come so I thought I would share my favourites with you.</span><br />

<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I am going to try and keep things pretty short as there are a lot of products to talk about but there may be some a ramble on about so I'm sorry!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">1. Primer - L'Oreal Skin Perfection Magic Touch Instant Blur Primer. (£12.99)</span><span style="color: #666666;"> This is an amazing primer for all those oily skinned girls out there! It fills in all of my pores and keep me more matte than pretty much all primers out there. I have just started using the Smashbox Pore Minimising Primer and I love that now but I had to include this L'Oreal one because I really did wear it for all of 2014.</span></span><br />

(£4.19)</span><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> There is not much that needs to be said about this! Pretty much all Bloggers and Youtubers will have heard loads of people rave about it and I love it too. High coverage and no creasing gets a massive tick from me!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">3. Foundation - Rimmel Wake Me Up in 010 Light Porcelain. (£8.99) </span><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Now I am a crazily oily skinned girl, but as much as I love matte foundations to keep the oil at bay, I find they really can make your skin look flat. For pretty much all of 2014 I added one pump of this foundation to any matte foundation I was using to create a more natural and healthy look. It has a slight shimmer in it to make your skin glow and is probably one of the best matches for my ginger skin tone that I have found.</span><br />

I absolutely love this blush. Although I didn't have it for a massive part of 2014 it is definitely the best I used as it is the perfect peach pink shade.</span><br />

(£18.00)</span><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> I was lucky enough to receive this in a <a href="http://littleredlovesblog.blogspot.co.uk/2014/11/november-birchbox-review.html">Birchbox</a> and I am so glad I did. I like to use this at the end of my morning face routine to tighten my pores for the day ahead. It works a treat.</span></div>

I was also lucky enough to get a Magnitone Lucid for Christmas which works so well with this cleanser. My skin has never felt so good!</span></div>

(£10.00)</span><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Now I LOVE this product but I have no idea why it says '& Peel' because this is not a peel at all. It is a very creamy exfoliating task mask that clears my pores out so well whilst also having a nice mint scent that is calming and cooling.</span></div>

I am not a massive fan of the texture, I don't really enjoy using it… but it seems to be the only thing that makes a dramatic difference in my skin. If I don't use this every evening I regret it and my skin makes sure I do. Since using this I have had hardly any spots and my skin has been a lot plumper. As you can see I am getting close to needing a new one!</span></div>

(£13.50) </span><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This has to be by far my favourite product of the whole of 2014. I received this in a <a href="http://littleredlovesblog.blogspot.co.uk/2014/10/october-birchbox-review.html">Birchbox</a> and a Look Fantastic box and oh my gosh its amazing. A few squirts of this all over my hair and I have noticed a massive difference in the dry time of my hair. It smells incredible and I am always excited to use it. (Just remember to shake it first)</span></div>

So so sorry to my readers for the lack of posts lately but as soon as christmas was over I got really ill and had a lot going on at work which meant I couldn't really shake off the flu and have now had to take a few days off to get myself back on track. This all means I've had no time or energy to keep up to date with my blog but lets pretend its only just turned 2015 and this is my first post of the year.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I sadly missed out on the collection when it was released around summer 2014 and there were so many good items in the collection but I have been lucky enough to pick up these two blushes which were the items I most wanted anyway! Lucky ey!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<a name='more'></a><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The collaboration was one of the best collaborations I have seen from M.A.C with a lot of products being released as part of the collection not just the standard few lipsticks. I wish that at the time I could have picked up more of the items which were all stunning.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have managed to get Kelly's Blush in Cheeky Bugger and Sharon's Blush in Peaches and Cream and I have to say I am not disappointed with either of them!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">My favourite of the pair has to be Cheeky Bugger which is a pale apricot shade which is perfect for my incredibly pale skin. I got this just before christmas and I have not stopped using it since I got it. It has definitely become my favourite ever blush and I can't see this changing anytime soon! Unless I do manage to get my hands on the Nars Virtual Domination Palette :( Although I have had a Nars blush for christmas that is a close second!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Other than the perfect colour of this blush I have to say how in love I am with the packaging of this blush! The pale lavender colour of the packaging is very Kelly especially with it being the same colour as her hair. It goes so well with the blush colour inside and I can't stop looking at it. I actually look forward to using this blush and I am so happy I got it!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Next is Sharon's Peaches and Cream which I also really like and is a big staple in my makeup drawers but I do have to say this colour is quite hard to wear with a bright lipstick.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Just like Cheeky Bugger this blushes packaging is so pretty and is perfect for Sharon as it again matches her red hair. Both blushes have such a creamy formula even though they are pressed powders and they are very finely milled for a great subtle look that can be flawlessly built up.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This blush is more of a vivid pale pink blush which looks great with a nude lip and a cat flick. As you can see in the swatches above although they look quite similar in the pictures, they are very different colours.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have been loving all kinds of christmas jumpers lately especially those that are dainty and delicate like subtle fairisle jumpers. This inspired me to create these pretty nails which were super quick to do!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I simply started with a single coat of this O.P.I. nail polish which I can't find the name of, but it is a sparkly grey and it only took two thin coats for a totally opaque look.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When this was totally dry I simply begun stamping using a Barry M Matte white using this beautiful stamping plate from <a href="http://www.bornprettystore.com/nail-stamp-template-beautiful-lace-snowflake-pattern-qa57-p-6457.html">BPS</a>. I LOVE this plate and will definitely be doing more designs with this plate and some brighter colours… maybe like a more garish jumper.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Once I was happy that all the nails looked how I wanted them to (ignore the wonkiness.. its so hard to get the lines straight) then I did some quick clean up with my acetone and applied my quick dry topcoat to seal everything in.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I liked how they looked at this point but as I hadn't done anything a bit different for a while I opted to use this topcoat from Barry M to achieve a matte look. This is my favourite topcoat and at only £2.99 its a bargain. I would definitely recommend trying out this topcoat if you haven't already.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As a lot of people have been asking me lately… I do do both of my hands when doing nail art, it is only if I am really pushed for time that I would do one hand and deal with looking like a crazy person. So here is a pic of both hands together.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I really like how these turned out and will be doing these again soon!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Hope you are all ready for christmas and enjoying the festive weather! Stay safe and let me know what you think below.</span><br />

Woo I'm so excited! And as I wrote in my last post, I have been very behind on my christmas nails so I thought I would upload these straight away so I can squeeze some more designs in before christmas!<br />
<br />

These are my latest creations inspired by the decorations on my christmas tree. Unfortunately I don't have any pictures of my tree because all of them came out over exposed from the lights and I'm not a camera genius so I couldn't fix it.. but anyway! Basically our tree at home is white, teal and silver. I realise these nails aren't quite teal but this blue was the colour that really took my fancy that day.<br />
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Our christmas tree is covered in these massive teal glitter bombs basically and after decorating the tree I felt it was only appropriate to use the most glittery nail polish I could find. Therefore I reached for one of my newest polishes from the Barry M Glitterati Collection (which I'm obsessed with can I add) called Rockstar. It is a beautiful black, silver and blue/green filled glitter polish that was perfect and I was dying to try it out!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrirLOgChFSWelKIMLEUZoAo4GNxw52bh95MS13OMtRF835HE-ISZyfnnIZiUuIjNvkXSjtfsGMubt4_GxUyHWar8pzqiXXcX1e7hJSFUr44Md7IXMOZUIMVFBBrycP9MJYLgUIUJ9Wgea/s1600/Winter-Sparkle-Snowflakes-7.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrirLOgChFSWelKIMLEUZoAo4GNxw52bh95MS13OMtRF835HE-ISZyfnnIZiUuIjNvkXSjtfsGMubt4_GxUyHWar8pzqiXXcX1e7hJSFUr44Md7IXMOZUIMVFBBrycP9MJYLgUIUJ9Wgea/s1600/Winter-Sparkle-Snowflakes-7.jpg" height="426" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
To create these nails I simply painted three very thin coats of the polish on top of my peel off base coat (this is essential for glitter polishes in my opinion) and used my Seche Vite quick dry topcoat to seal the glitter in. I am so waiting for Barry M to come out with the best quick dry topcoat because that would just be amazing!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Next I took a new plate I ordered from <a href="http://www.bornprettystore.com/nail-stamp-template-cute-snowflake-design-qa58-p-5695.html">Born Pretty Stor</a><a href="http://www.bornprettystore.com/nail-stamp-template-cute-snowflake-design-qa58-p-5695.html">e</a> which is full of snowflakes of all shapes and sizes. I fell in love with this plate as soon as I saw it and for only <a href="http://www.bornprettystore.com/nail-stamp-template-cute-snowflake-design-qa58-p-5695.html">$2.99</a> how could I not order it?<br />
<br />

<br />
To use this I simply took this Rimmel London polish in Too Cool to Tango and a Barry M Matte White and begun scraping the polish across the images and then stamping them straight onto the nail in random positions.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgs56CY0-CAvaFfEMu3VKgnhJBRnBWkT2lp7CHZw88tv6yWqPLM-KUCwBSBdtCmzrtqPgU0PdmfQMVsdg002dxzW1sdEj8TOXxbXp9N1nk13gqhLm0-eSuQIfG8qaNph54TPjxSQzbeRH1v/s1600/Winter-Sparkle-Snowflakes-4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgs56CY0-CAvaFfEMu3VKgnhJBRnBWkT2lp7CHZw88tv6yWqPLM-KUCwBSBdtCmzrtqPgU0PdmfQMVsdg002dxzW1sdEj8TOXxbXp9N1nk13gqhLm0-eSuQIfG8qaNph54TPjxSQzbeRH1v/s1600/Winter-Sparkle-Snowflakes-4.jpg" height="426" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
I LOVE how the snowflakes came out but I would defiantly recommend not using a white headed stamper to stamp with white polish because it made it very hard to see if the image was broken or not.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
This is such a subtle look in terms of the snowflakes because they are sort of overpowered by the glitter, but I like that. The people who take the time to look properly at my nails will notice the secret details and appreciate them.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
And I love how the glitter polish looks. It applied so well and it probably would have been opaque with two normal coats but I like to do three thin coats with glitter polishes for a better glitter look overall.<br />
<br />
Apologies for the strange lighting in the pictures but Im working with a new background at the moment. Bare with me please.<br />
<br />
I hope you liked this post! If you have done any christmas nail art please feel free to leave you links in the comments below! I love the christmas nail art period and I can't wait to see all the looks everyone has created!<br />
<br />
Peace.<br />

With the plates they also sent me a new squishy stamper and scraper. My old stamper and scraper were actually also from BPS but I have had them for a few years now I think….<br />

<br />
To create this mani I started with a warm brown gradient base using a wet sponge from pound land and 3 polishes. They were Rimmel - Rapid Ruby, Models Own - Naked Glow & Barry M - Matte White.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihbR60UvNOoPFNPfvbj6Lg3_ZAyvvOpN-pERfWwuXe49gJyswWTtmJ6hNBAHoFf8qLFcPYRcvcCk-ksOQMjurvArddIYtqt5XPgf7suy-pS6Xz1CAwlgkHxblvu6oxEmYN-f9W9ZUihyphenhyphenYI/s1600/Winter-Leaves-Nails-2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihbR60UvNOoPFNPfvbj6Lg3_ZAyvvOpN-pERfWwuXe49gJyswWTtmJ6hNBAHoFf8qLFcPYRcvcCk-ksOQMjurvArddIYtqt5XPgf7suy-pS6Xz1CAwlgkHxblvu6oxEmYN-f9W9ZUihyphenhyphenYI/s1600/Winter-Leaves-Nails-2.jpg" height="400" width="266" /></a></div>
<br />
After a little bit of clean up I began priming the stamper with a nail file because if the top is too shiny the stamper will not pick the image up of the image plate. DO NOT OVER PRIME. If you over file the top of the stamper then it won't pick anything up at all. This stamper took pretty much no priming as it was already pretty good at picking up the image.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjAKfDM8lWqzYULagxoqAsr7ji35rcdNT0bB1Gg-wL8DmgdSQA4Hams6QKBZD112SgDRyxYNCmP7p9pbypeXgGM912Hca8NjydJ4mgkNFirMEpDxyDaqh49bWC6r48fqWn-pVIsFdiIH_66/s1600/Winter-Leaves-Nails-4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjAKfDM8lWqzYULagxoqAsr7ji35rcdNT0bB1Gg-wL8DmgdSQA4Hams6QKBZD112SgDRyxYNCmP7p9pbypeXgGM912Hca8NjydJ4mgkNFirMEpDxyDaqh49bWC6r48fqWn-pVIsFdiIH_66/s1600/Winter-Leaves-Nails-4.jpg" height="426" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Then I simply began putting drops of polish near the images I wanted to use and dragged the scraper across the image. I have to say I am not a massive fan of the scraper because it seemed to catch on the high points of the leaves and jolt as I tried to swipe it across. I am not sure whether it was the plate or the scraper but I will keep using this scraper because it is bound to be a matter of practise.<br />

<br />
The stamper is WAY better than my old one and I love that is it rectangular and not round. I also LOVE this <a href="http://www.bornprettystore.com/leaves-theme-nail-stamp-template-image-plate-born-pretty-p-17264.html">stamping plate</a> and I can't wait until Summer or Autumn next year to use this plate more and create all over patterns.<br />
<br />

<br />
For this look I simply took different purples and reds and stamped different leaves over the top half of my nails, until I got the desired look I wanted.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Overall I love how these turned out but I kind of wish that I used different colours on either the base or the leaves because I feel like they don't quite mesh well, but I still like them.<br />

I hope you liked this post and let me know what kind of christmas nail art looks you want in the comments!<br />
<br />
Thank you to <a href="http://www.bornprettystore.com/leaves-theme-nail-stamp-template-image-plate-born-pretty-p-17264.html">Born Pretty Store</a> for sending me these products and if you want to buy some stamping plate I really recommend you do buy them from BPS, not only are they £1 or less mostly, they are great quality! They all come with a protective blue film that keeps them from scratching. This is the <a href="http://www.bornprettystore.com/leaves-theme-nail-stamp-template-image-plate-born-pretty-p-17264.html">plate</a> I have used.<br />
<br />
Peace.<br />

<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">As always with Look Fantastic, things are just getting better and better and another I preferred last months box for my personal tastes I do actually think this months is better and sadly for my bank balance that means I will want to buy the next one!

<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">So first up in the box and what I obviously spotted first because you can't miss it… we have a product from Macadamia Healing Oil Infused Comb (full size £6). Confused? Me too.. what is thing humongous thing?! I don't really know but I love it! I never use combs but this intrigues me so much! I will have to report back on this one because its a bit strange, but I've heard such good things about the brand so lets hope its great!</span><br />

<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Next we have the Pure Gold Collagen Drink. These usually come as a pack of 10 worth £34.00 making this one £7.65 and again this is another strange product but I also love it. I know that it will literally take me so long to gather up the strength to decide its a good idea to put this in my body! I feel like this is going to make me bloat out crazy amounts like I've had botox.. but all the bits on the back say it is very good for your body although I doubt I'm going to even notice a difference as it says that you have to drink 1 a day for 4 weeks or longer…</span><br />

<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Elemis Papaya Enzyme Peel (15ml = £8.85) is up next and that is a product that I have actually used! I tried it as soon as I opened it because I got excited! I can't say that I noticed a massive different after one use but I will keep going with this product! I love Elemis so I hope it impresses me. Also it is not a peel… it does not peel off/peel your skin off. I don't really know why its called that!</span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Next is the <span style="background-color: white; line-height: 24px;">Ole Henriksen’s Pure Truth Youth Activating Oil 15ml. A 30ml bottle is £47.00, so 15ml is </span><span style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 24px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">£23.50 which is CRAZY for such a small bottle. Hence I am expecting big things! Very big things</span><span style="line-height: 24px;">…</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have always been a massive fan of GHD with their being the brand my hairdressers have always used on me. About 7 years ago I got my very first pair and I loved them! They were bright pink and I used them pretty much every day for a long time.. but as I grew up I kind of left my hair a bit more natural, or curled it, or used my straighteners but didn't enjoy it as much because I am a bit more grown up now and although I am still a girlie girl they are a bit too much of a childish colour for me.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Also over the last year I have noticed that they have not been working anywhere near as well as they used to… I had been thinking a lot about asking for a new pair for christmas but hadn't really got round to it, so when I saw I was being sent this beautiful new pair I was so happy!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As soon as these new straighteners arrived at the door I fell in love. They are packaged in the most elegant and simple black and rose gold box. Inside is a wonderful set containing:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1 pair of GHD Rose Gold V Stylers</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">2 GHD hair clips</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1 Rose Gold trimmer heat mat which turns into a carry case</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1 GHD Nose cover</span></li>
</ul>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKF6uL82TXSFbDiVt1oUq3WYIWMkLPYWuq-jNgVpN1fZcmbBS2hnYCuN-35ZWJ-afFvxaTJIUYThyHvPlEZkyku7LmvlOM7sKoMZke4nQavorzhnlNpbDT9DrVLYWhGqP1PGZSy8U82pm_/s1600/GHD-Rose-Gold-5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKF6uL82TXSFbDiVt1oUq3WYIWMkLPYWuq-jNgVpN1fZcmbBS2hnYCuN-35ZWJ-afFvxaTJIUYThyHvPlEZkyku7LmvlOM7sKoMZke4nQavorzhnlNpbDT9DrVLYWhGqP1PGZSy8U82pm_/s1600/GHD-Rose-Gold-5.jpg" height="266" width="400" /></span></a></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This set honestly has everything a girl needs to create any style of hair (except for a brush) and the thing that most separates these from my old pair are the super curved edges and corners. This developed design means you can not only create sleek straight locks, but also curls, waves, flicks, anything you fancy really! I was never able to create curls with my old pair and conveniently my curlers have decided that they want to just burn my hair off all the time… so now I have two products in one and don't need to replace my babyliss curlers.</span></div>

<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Other than the fact these straighteners are amazing, the set is perfect too. The heat mat doubles as a protective case, perfect for taking these straighteners away with you and the rose gold detailing makes it look so stylish and much more grown up which is just what I needed!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Everything is branded with the GHD logo in rose gold and I love how the whole set goes well together. They all pack away nicely into one bag and even the clips have little slots in the case so they can't get lost.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">And if I couldn't big this product up anymore I just have to include how much of a joy they are to use… I feel so cool using these and I don't feel childish at all. This stunning design is truly beautiful to look at and the light up detailing that tells you they are on and ready is so pretty and subtle.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The fact that they even include a nose cover to keep them locked close when you are finish and want to put them away just makes them feel so much more expensive and like you are getting your moneys worth. GHD have thought about everything and have produced a product that is far more superior to their past sets in terms of styling, safety and value for money. The straighteners even come with a sleep mode that shuts them down after 30 minutes of non use to prevent any risk of over heating.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">These pictures show you how well they straightened my long hair but also allowed me to put a little flick at the front of my fringe to keep my hair out of my eyes.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Overall these are amazing. They are sold online at <a href="http://www.lookfantastic.com/ghd-rose-gold-styler-gift-set/10999378.html?review=success&reviewId=705670">Look Fantastic here</a> for £130 which may seem expensive when you can buy others in Boots for like £40 but those brands of straightens are nothing in comparison to GHD's. These are such good quality and you are getting such a complete product for your money. I know that I will probably not need to replace these now for a good 10 years + and I am so happy that I was lucky enough to be sent them so I can't thank Look Fantastic enough.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If you are thinking of purchasing these after this post then I would definitely recommend using Look Fantastic due to their incredible customer service… I have never had a problem with any of my products and they always have amazing deals on. For example today they have a 25% off code so you could get these straighteners for just under £100 which is amazing!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This is not a sponsored post although the product was sent to me, but all views are truly my own and I wouldn't promote or compliment a product I didn't think was worth the praise.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I hope you have liked this post and let me know your favourite styler in the comments below!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Peace.</span><br />

Today I have an amazing box review for you which you have probably already read all about before but I was super busy when it arrived and didn't get the time to write a post quicker. This box is a collaboration between department store giants Harvey Nichols and subscription box gurus Glossybox. First all I can think about when I see this box is WOW… There are so many amazing products crammed in!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Next I sadly have to mention the price.. This box was £35 (plus p&p) which is crazy for a box of samples, but this is no ordinary box of sample (its an M&S box of samples… just kidding) it is a super sized box of samples with products from high end brands that you don't usually get in the standard subscription boxes. I was so sad to part with this much money at first.. but it was so worth it and I am so happy I did.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This box comes so beautifully wrapped up with ribbon, stickers and a detailed guide on the products included. Way better than the usual Birchbox description cards.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I almost wish I brought two of these boxes so I could give one to my Mum or Aunt but I am a student and for that reason I was selfish and I do not regret it ;)</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The first product you will see in the box straight away is the gold beauty that is SHOW Beauty - Divine Thickening Lotion. How stunning is this packaging? It is most definitely the most beautiful product I own now and although I already have super thick hair I will probably use this every time I was my hair just to feel like a queen when the bottle is inn my hand! </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Love love love. Also full size!! This is worth £40 alone so it has already covered my box cost!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Next is the Benefit They're Real sample (worth £6.88) which is a product I have heard so much about and have been wanting to try for ages! I have to say I am not disappointed at all! Lovely long lashes but I just hate how hard it is to get off.. it is so off-putting when you go to put it on! Still a great product to have in the box.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Then we have the Laura Mercier Foundation Primer (worth £17.80). Also a product I have heard a lot about… I have not really gotten on with this primer. Well its more that I haven't found that it has helped at all. It feels super nice on application but I tend to get on better with silicone based primers like the Benefit Porefessional or the Garnier Instant Blur. I am still happy to have received this as it has meant I now know that I don't need to go and spend £29 on a full sized to test it.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Next is a mini Nars Satin Lip Pencil <span style="background-color: white; line-height: 24px; text-align: justify;">Rikugien (worth </span><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 24px; text-align: justify;">£13.90</span><span style="background-color: white; text-align: justify;"><span style="line-height: 24px;">) which I have been lusting after for a long time! I am so happy that this was part of the box and really want to try more Nars products, as my mum and dad have discovered from my Christmas </span></span><span style="line-height: 24px;">wish list! This is also the perfect sized sample and I would be so happy to receive these in future subscription boxes!</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 24px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 24px;">One of my personal favourites from this box is the Harvey Nichols candle which some people may think is crazy! But I am obsessed with candles at the moment with it being winter! This smells so good and I may just have to purchase the set of 4 but I am struggling with the idea of parting with £30 for some candles :/ I got the 'Dinning Candle' and I have no idea what my candles sent is but it smells so darn good! (worth £7.50)</span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 24px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 24px;">Then we have the Dermalogica Overnight Repair Serum (worth £19.16) which seems CRAZY for such a small bottle but I guess it must work! Although I am yet to find out because I can't get it out of the opening? I have shaken it as much as I can but still nada.. I will find a way some day and report back!</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 24px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 24px;">Up next is the Rodial Bee Venom Moisturiser (worth £15) which is crazy in both name and price. This little baby is £150 for a 50ml tube.. and this 5ml tester is literally so small. There is hardly any in the tube but I can now say I have tried a £150 moisturiser made of bee venom and it didn't hurt!</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 24px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 24px;">Then (so many products, need more starting words) we have the Elemis Pro - Collagen Marine Cream (worth £20) which is an anti ageing cream so isn't really my cup of tea as a student but this smells so good and leaves you skin feeling so smooth that I am happy to use it an prevent the wrinkles from forming!</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 24px;">Next is the Macadamia Natural Oil Healing Oil Treatment (worth £1.70) which I have already used up! It smells so divine and leaves my hair feeling nourishes and healthy! </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 24px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhlAzqs9RkaLWlRTY150NC16tLkEbh90sp4sCeWnd0UOdPO24AtAfcEmJEUGQLfnj4dvaaHcAPNInugVhvxAwbyRYVHu95EFy4JJWiU8bOgt1CGE2hwqFOPfrWsPPxgJ8xvymxhNGBSQNBf/s1600/Glossy-Box-Harvey-Nichols-8.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhlAzqs9RkaLWlRTY150NC16tLkEbh90sp4sCeWnd0UOdPO24AtAfcEmJEUGQLfnj4dvaaHcAPNInugVhvxAwbyRYVHu95EFy4JJWiU8bOgt1CGE2hwqFOPfrWsPPxgJ8xvymxhNGBSQNBf/s1600/Glossy-Box-Harvey-Nichols-8.jpg" height="426" width="640" /></span></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 24px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 24px;">Then we have the La Coupe Coconut and Macadamia Oil Hair treatment (worth £3.60) which is one treatment size but could probably do short hair twice. I haven't tried this yet because my hair is feeling pretty good thanks to the Macadamia Oil but when my hair is feeling a bit more sorry for itself I will definitely be whipping this out and giving it a try.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 24px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 24px;">Lastly! Phewww.. we have the O.P.I Avoplex Moisture Replenishing Lotion (worth £8.50) which is probably the only real disappointment in this box. People who bought this box could receive either this hand cream or an O.P.I nail polish in the most beautiful Purple colour! I was so wanting that polish but even though I got the hand cream I am still happy because it is a product I have not tried and hand cream is a product I really need to start using more!</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 24px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 24px;">Wow! I am so impressed with this box! The contents came to a massive £149 for all the sample sizes and that is almost 5 times the amount I paid! Unfortunately this was a limited edition box and sold out pretty quickly but if you want to checkout <a href="http://www.glossybox.co.uk/">Glossy Box</a> or <a href="http://www.harveynichols.com/?_$ja=cgid:4082409114%7Ctsid:34314%7Ccid:59505834%7Clid:44841353394%7Cnw:g%7Ccrid:48621926154%7Crnd:9827633729037371812%7Cdvc:c%7Cadp:1t1&gclid=Cj0KEQiAneujBRDcvL6f5uybhdABEiQA_ojMgmVWjd-MSv_m2MgnB4YldHGAfHY3ZiSCo04OLxOhdLwaAlDR8P8HAQ&gclsrc=aw.ds">Harvey Nichols</a> websites click their names in bold.</span></span><br />

So today I have a pretty exciting post for you. I was recently contacting by a lovely lady from Quiz who invited me to take part in a nail art competition where you are inspired by one of their dresses! So of course I had to take a shot and I am going to show you the nails I created.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">There were so many nice dresses on their website that it took me ages to find just one that I wanted to turn into nails as I had so many ideas buzzing around my head!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I chose this wonderful Black and Silver Lace cut out dress which you can checkout <a href="http://www.quizclothing.co.uk/clothes/00100003965.html">here</a>, as I had the perfect stamping plate to create the look.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">To start I obviously did a base coat and then 2 coats of my black nail polish which was Collection 2000 lasting gel finish in black… you can use whatever black polish you have! Then when that was totally dry I simply began stamping on top using Rimmel - Your Majesty which is a gorgeous silver. The stamping plate was from Born Pretty Store but there are tons out their that are super cheap and will have similar lace patterns.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">To stamp I simply put some nail polish on the plate, drag it across the image, pick it up with my stamper and roll across my nails.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">After clean up I decided to add some hand painted mini flowers to the more bare areas and then a little glitter topcoat by Seventeen. TA DAHH after that all I did was lock it all in with my Seche Vite and I'm done! Super simple but super effective!</span><br />

I hope you are all good and enjoying this beautiful winter weather! Today I have a quick post on these super easy but incredibly effective nails!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I created these a few days ago and I have fallen in love with how they look. They were so easy to create but they look so good and I have had so many compliments… especially from people asking where I got my nail wraps from.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<a name='more'></a><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">To start I simply used my base coat (Bourjois) and 2 coats of Rimmel London - Rapid Ruby and then I left this to completely dry.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When the base was dry I just began creating little dots on the nail using the thin end of a dotting tool and Models Own White light hyper gel. I tried to keep the dots as uniform as I possibly could but its not very easy and pretty hard to notice anyway.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I LOVE how these turned out and will definitely be trying this again with different coloured bases and maybe some floral nail art on the sides.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This honestly only took my like 20 mins from start to finish and that was more because of drying time and me trying to be precise. Try this look if you want to dabble in nail art but don't have to time or patience to try something more elaborate. This will look so effortless and everyone will be asking you too where you got your wraps from.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If you don't have a dotting tool.. don't fret. Anything with a round blunt point would do, including bobby pins, sewing pins (put something over the sharp end) a ball point pen… etc..</span><br />

For this post I am reviewing another beauty box! Which seems mad…. I have gone from getting none to reviewing 2 or 3 boxes a month! My bank balance does not like me right now… But my face does!

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This time is the November edition of the Look Fantastic Beauty Box and it is their best one yet! I was pretty confused when my box turned up because it had no box cards and as the products are all samples, some do not have instructions on the back. I contacted LF and got no response which I think is pretty rude seeing as it is their mistake.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<a name='more'></a><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Anyway after working out what each product was for I fell in love with this box!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">First off we have to mention the Glam Glow… I have been wanting to try a product from their range for a long time and lets just say it doesn't disappoint! My pores felt clear and tights after using this mask and although I really HATE the massive lumps of leaves in the mask…. if it works as well as it did first time I really can't complain and ill just ignore the blobs. I am super impressed at LF for getting this in a box and would love to receive samples of the other masks to review in future!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Next is the Eve Lom Cleansing Balm. This is a classic balm cleanser that you can use to cleanse or to remove makeup with a muslin cloth. The first thing I have to say is that this stuff STINKS. It smells horrible… really horrible and it hate using it. But it does do the job…. it leaves my skin feeling clean and clear (and under control ;) hahhaa comment if you get that) and it is a very good cleanser but I spend the whole time using it with my nose wrinkled up and eyes closed because the smell is so overpowering!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Next is a Lip Crayon from New CID. I love New CID…. I don't have many of their products but I love their primer and this is a great addition to my small collection. It is a nice colour and I am wearing it in the pic above. Love.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Then we have some kind of product from NUXE. I haven't worked out what this is but I'm not really interested… the front of the packaging is in french and I understand french well enough to know this is an anti ageing product. For me I am a teenager and these products don't interest me. I wish LF would stop including them…</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Next is a Recovery Balm from Monu which has been a life saver. I have had a few breakouts this month and smoothing this over my skin just before bed has totally calmed my skin. The only other comment I have is that the sample bottle is sooooooooooooooo thick that it is almost impossible to get anything out of the packaging. I can't squeeze it with my weak fingers! Other than that it is fab.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Then last we have a Hand Cream from Hand Chemistry. I am not a massive hand cream kind of girl but I love it! My hands feel super smooth and healthy after using this and it has made its way into my handbag for everyday use!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Overall other than problems with customer service, smells and packaging… this is an AMAZING box and I have signed up to the December box already. Hope they just keep getting better and better.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The only other comment I have about these boxes is that when they advertise these boxes they say that 5 lucky customers will find specially bonus products in their box but so far I have not seen anyone get anything. I have searches twitter and instagram and I hope they are not false advertising something that doesn't exist. If anyone knows anyone who has got the bonus treats then let me know because Id hate to think that a company I love so much has been leading customers on!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Anyway I hope you have a lovely day and I have a mani post coming up on Sunday…</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Peace.</span><br />

Todays post is a little bit late going up but it turns out that someone who is way better than me at nail art posted some very similar nails just before I was about to post mine…. So I didn't want mine to look poor in comparison and decided to hold off on posting them for a while.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I am a true lovely of autumnal colours and berry has always been my go to polish and lip colour, so autumn nail art is super exciting for me! I thought these up one night when I couldn't sleep and sadly they didn't turn out quite as neat as I hope (I think I need a smaller brush) but I am still super happy with them.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The base colour is Bourjois Violine Chic which is more of a purple toned berry but I LOVE how in some lights it looks brown and in some it looks purple. It is the perfect fall and winter shade!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">To create the gradient I took Models Own Juicy Jules and Barry M Pink Silver Glitter on a little sponge and begun to push down on the bottom of my nails until I got the desired effect. This took a few tries.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQpLpeszjitUIdx96NPn2JTx5KDTW2b2BIbxpiuTnbeB-r3yupZAfye1sHge3tUHhjDB3faX2C2AZ3XJeTh4c6WwOBPN3jdW_CQu2PrLELQVx1mT1rnZiRE4NSkbeckNg26xwDLHjhAns3/s1600/Autumn-Leaf-Nails-4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQpLpeszjitUIdx96NPn2JTx5KDTW2b2BIbxpiuTnbeB-r3yupZAfye1sHge3tUHhjDB3faX2C2AZ3XJeTh4c6WwOBPN3jdW_CQu2PrLELQVx1mT1rnZiRE4NSkbeckNg26xwDLHjhAns3/s1600/Autumn-Leaf-Nails-4.jpg" height="426" width="640" /></span></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Then after applying my Seche Vite topcoat, I created some outlines of autumn leaves with my Models own White Light polish and left to dry. When it was dry I begun creating the details on the leaves using a mixture of yellow, orange, red and brown polishes.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I then sealed it all in with my Orly Shine topcoat and cleaned up any edges. There was quite a bit of glitter left around my nails and if I did this again I would tape of my fingers.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Overall I am pretty happy with how they turned out and they are making me feel so seasonal!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

So for todays post I am going to show you the birthday cake that I made for my younger cousin, Nathan's, birthday.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Nathan has been loving the Frozen CD lately and when my Aunt asked if I could make an Olaf themed cake, I jumped at the opportunity as I am a bit of a Frozen lover myself.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br /><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhjd3z7590W1K4V7H_naVByQCgueaAYnOq5BM_QFzWgg9MnqY9cIYsxQufxyVvV-Vcuy2POQxFlueG-CmejID5SM8e_O1ZzBHDVA5y-fFBQA_JN1__U_PnQP3ABD8gqgm9UDpRx6ixUXYlw/s1600/Olaf-Frozen-Cake-2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhjd3z7590W1K4V7H_naVByQCgueaAYnOq5BM_QFzWgg9MnqY9cIYsxQufxyVvV-Vcuy2POQxFlueG-CmejID5SM8e_O1ZzBHDVA5y-fFBQA_JN1__U_PnQP3ABD8gqgm9UDpRx6ixUXYlw/s400/Olaf-Frozen-Cake-2.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
Instead of making a traditional circular cake, with an Olaf figure on top… I decided to make my life hard and create an actual Olaf cake. This cake was inspired by the scene where his head falls off and also by cakes I came across on Pintrest.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgGsHRgnB3RxL7g3FBF1mPfWa2YtxJSeTKi-KoPtFxjO3TJgpiCmaWm1KeOgyw3dJNu45TJJC-BTQfhF0A-MiQHf7wpq9gPU8Djcp5rKJxlXF42HdL8cqNrXsWdl75A274nFFWO1A5CweYk/s1600/Olaf-Frozen-Cake-3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="270" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgGsHRgnB3RxL7g3FBF1mPfWa2YtxJSeTKi-KoPtFxjO3TJgpiCmaWm1KeOgyw3dJNu45TJJC-BTQfhF0A-MiQHf7wpq9gPU8Djcp5rKJxlXF42HdL8cqNrXsWdl75A274nFFWO1A5CweYk/s400/Olaf-Frozen-Cake-3.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
Although it may look hard, it was actually easier than expected. After carving the (blue) cake I had baked the day before, I simply butter creamed it for a crumb coat, and cover it in fondant icing for a traditional birthday cake finish.<br />
<br />
After that I could simply let my creative side go wild with (baking) coloured powders, icing shapes, sugar paper snowflakes and twigs! Of course!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
I am super proud of how this turned out and I am happy to report that my cousin LOVED the cake and that it tasted just as delicious as it looked!<br />
<br />
I would love to see other peoples bakes so feel free to leave links in the comments!<br />
<br />
Thanks for reading!<br />
<br />
Peace.<br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I think beauty boxes may have become my obsession and I am already signed up for the alerts for the Glossybox with Harvey Nichols AND I have another beauty box review coming this week! They are such a good way to find new products you haven't heard of or wanted to try but didnt want to splurge…</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So this months Birchbox theme is '<a href="https://birchbox.co.uk/box/">Cosy at Home</a>' which is filled with products that are meant to help you get through the cold winter months! As usual the box was filled with a selection of cards with hints, tips and product information… but also this months cards had my face on!!! (above pic, bottom right)</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Each month they have a sample selfie competition where you can win a full size version of your favourite sample if you take a picture with it. You can enter this on instagram, twitter and Facebook.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Anyway onto the box! First ill start with my favourite things from the box… Birchboxers were lucky enough to receive a full size product from Dr. Jart +. Each subscriber could receive one of 5 different products and although I have heard of this brand before they somehow managed to send me the exact right product for my skin. I have a massive problem with large pores so I was super excited to get the Pore Refine Tight Effect Toner. This is full sized and is usually sold for £18 so this has covered my subscription cost already (£10 a month + £2.95 postage). I have already fallen in love with this product due to the fact that unlike most toners it has a spray pump and straight away after the first use I could see my pores were tighter! I don't know if I think its worth £18 though..</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Next is a Protect & Detangle spray by Beauty Protector (£14 full size/£1.50 sample size ish) which has added to my current hair care obsession after I found a new holy grail hair product in my last Birchbox (see what it was <a href="http://littleredlovesblog.blogspot.co.uk/2014/10/october-birchbox-review.html">here</a>). It is a leave in conditioner which claims to (deep breath) : </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I can't say yet whether it fulfils all of these claims but it definitely helped with detangling and combined with my miracle product from last months Birchbox, hair drying time is so much shorter than it used to be which makes drying my hair so much more enjoyable. Plus is smells delicious!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Next is the lifestyle sample which was a Montezuma's Mini Milk Bar (£2.39 for 100g/70p sample size) which lets be honest everyone was probably happy to receive!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Also include was a Welda Lavender Relaxing Body Oil (£11.95 full size/£1.95 sample size) which to be honest isn't really my thing but I am open to trying and will give it a go one night when I need to have a nice deep sleep.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Next is a Lord & Berry Mini Bronzer (£19 full size/£3.00 sample size) which made me laugh so much because it is the size of a pan eye shadow. If it was an eye shadow they were sampling I wouldn't be disappointed at all but how an earth am I meant to fit my bronzer brush into this pan?! This will definitely be used as an eye shadow instead!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Last is a sample of the English Laundry perfume in Signature for Her (£60 full size). Don't really think its fair that this is counted as a sample because lets be honest I can barely get 2 proper uses of this size product… Also I don't have £60 to spend on a perfume so I haven't even smelt it! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Overall this is a pretty good Birchbox… Take away my perfume sample and swap it for the O.P.I polish that some subscribers got and I would be super happy! The box comes to a total of £25ish which isn't the best total for a Birchbox… but I really can't complain because I love three of the 6 products and I have gotten nearly double my moneys worth!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I love the cards that were included and seeing my face on the cards was an added bonus! This will defiantly help me get through the winter months!</span><br />

So I'm back from my holiday now and thought I would show you the nails I wore for the WHOLE week… yes they lasted the whole week! I only had a few chips on the last night and peeled them off in the car on the way home (so so bad I know but I was bored, 5 hours is a long time to sit in a car).</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">These nails were literally so simple to create and they looked so effective. I started off with a base of 2 coats of Essie Sole Mate and when that was dry, I begun taking random colours and making fast strokes using the brush include in the polish but I had brushed most of the polish off on the bottle top.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I used Barry M Aquarium in Caspian, Rimmel Ultra Violet and Barry M Baby Pink to create the brush strokes and I also went back over a few sections with Sole Mate.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This is honestly a method that can't really go wrong, but do make sure that your base is totally dry or the dry brush will pull the base and create drag marks. Not quite so attractive.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I love how this looked and it took me only 30 mins to create, with drying time etc..</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
