I Wish I Had A Decent Camera To Show Off My Nail And Make Up Designs :(

hey lovely people :P
its been a while sorry about that but its been my BIRTHDAY week 1st May lol
im now 23!! gosh im getting old haha, i am planning on doing a blog post on the things i got for my birthday but for now im just going to show you a nail design i done and a make up design i tried :)
i do believe other bloggers are calling this sugar (something) please let me know if you do know what it is as iv got a complete brain block haha! as my heading shows the quality of my pictures are TERRIBLE and it annoys me greatly that u cant really see the effect :( but im totally loving this design for nails!!!

you just blob some of your nail polish onto a surface and mix it a little till it becomes thicker, using a wooden cuticle stick, dip it into the mixture and drag the stringy polish over the nail until you have the desired effect :)
for the base coat i used BarryM in Raspberry, but you can use any base colour you want then choose your polishes around that colour :) i used a different colour on each nail and i loved the end result!!! There are loads of tutorials on you tube to help you if you want to try this out yourself, i would defo recommend u try it because it gives such an amazing effect but isnt too difficult :)

This is the eye make up design i did and i love it but again its a crappy picture so you cant really see the full result of how it looks! i have put this picture up of me because you can just see how much my eyes POP with this make up on, its kind of a smokey purple and i used my gorgeous eye shadows from the make up pallet my friend Romana sent me its her own make up line but sadly she doesnt make them anymore :( which is such a shame because the colours are amazing and the pigment is sensational stays on all night and morning (if you been out the night before and was naughty and didnt remove your make up before bed *whistles*)
AMAZING colours, one of my best gifts ever :D
i know this was abit of a long post but i hope you enjoyed it :)
i will return soon for my birthday post (hopefully lol) and show you all the lovely stuff i got and bought :)
stay beautiful guys
much love
xoxo

Cats Eyes ;)

The other day i woke up to a fantabulous (made that word up haha) email from Maybelline telling me i had won there comp!!! I was sooooo excited to find out i won there amazing new mascara 'Colossal Cat Eye's' its £7.99 in Boots at the moment or 2 for £12 :) I was really chuffed as im really running low on mascara and it was just what i needed!!! Anyway I must say its one of the best mascara's iv used in a LONG time!!! its amazing really does bring out your eyes, the brush is curved instead if straight which i must say i much prefer :) I will defo be buying this again once this one runs out as i fricking love it! It separates the lashes beautifully and really does make them look longer, also you only need a few coats, usually im there for about 15/20 mins doing my mascara so that it looks just right and thick enough but with Colossal i only took about 5 mins :)
Unless i find a mascara that matches up to this one il be sticking with Colossal Cat Eyes for a while as its reasonably priced too! You cant be long thick lashes they look super sexy ;) mwah xoxoxoxoxox

MUA Cosmetics Yay or Nay?. . . . YAY ;)

As promised this is my review on MUA cosmetics :) Iv never actually owned any MUA make up before as every time iv gone out and bought make up i have never seen it but was told such good things about it by many people so thought id try my luck and ask them if they could send me any free samples to review (was thinking maybe an eyeshadow or something small like that)but to my surprise they sent me loads of there amazing new products to test out and OMG they really are fantastic, i decided to look on there website to see how many different kinds of products they have and they have hundreds of amazing different types of make up http://www.superdrug.com/mua-makeup-academy-introducing-our-new-ps1-make-up-range-exclusive/page/muamakeupacademy/ here is the link to there website i would defo recommend you check it out because they have a new £1 make up range and free delivery, how fab is that?! :D anyway here is my review.
This is a swatch of 3 colour's from Pretty Pastels Palette, i love pastel colour's especially in the summer they always look so pretty and this eye-shadow goes on really well very subtle but makes eyes look gorgeous :) 
This is the swatch from there new eXtreme Metallics collection this one is called 'Glammed Up' i LOVE the pigments in the metallics range the silver colour is gorgeous, you can really make a statement with these colour's and i LOVE statement eyes ;) 
 This one is the eXtreme Metallic 'Smokin' eye-shadow pallet my fav colour in this one is the blue one (2nd along) really stands out and goes on really nicely!! :) 
Last from the eXtreme Metallics range i received is called 'Starstruck' like the others i love this pallet, i tried the pink colour with the brown in the corners and it looked beautiful, a bit like a smokey eye but subtle anyone can pull it off :) 

This next set of swatches are from the Trio pallet's, i LOVE these ones because on the back of each pallet are some instructions of were to put each colour to give u amazing eyes. . . .
This one is a swatch from the 'Chocolate Box' Trio pallet they blend sooooo nicely, this is by far my fav colour combo i love doing smokey eyes and i think brown is the best colour to use to get the best effect without being too over the top :) 

This is the 'Passion' Trio pallet the pigments are amazing with these eye-shadows, if your looking for a brighter kind of smokey eye then this is the pallet i would recommend :)

The 2 other Trio pallets i got are 'Blue Babe' and 'Eden' both just as gorgeous as the 2 shown :)

Now moving on to some nail polish they sent me, as we all know by now im a nail polish fiend so i was really chuffed to have received 2 of there new Crackle range which is called 'Nail Quake' i got a pink colour called 'Shiver' and a silver colour called 'Shattered Ice' now iv tried ALOT of different crackle effect nail polishes and the MUA ones are by far the best iv tried they go on really smoothly and don't go clumpy and the effect you get is much better than most others iv tried  :)
I tried them both over the same base colour and the pink one looks wicked with it but i would suggest using a much darker colour with the silver as u cant really see it over the light blue, i would recommend maybe dark purple and silver crackle i think that would look amazing :) 

Im sorry i haven't done price ranges on here but as i was sent them im unsure but you can check them out yourself on the website i gave up the top, they really are not an expensive make up brand but the quality your getting is top notch ;) From now on when im searching for make up i will be looking straight for the MUA counter i have not tried there mascara or foundation BUT if there anything like there other make up they will be fantastic. Thanks again MUA cosmetics for sending me this make up i love it (and so does my mummy lol)
I really hope you enjoyed my review please let me know if you have tried any MUA cosmetics before i would love to hear your thoughts on it :) heres the link to there facebook page http://www.facebook.com/MUAmakeupacademy and heres there twitter page http://twitter.com/#!/MUAcosmetics :) stay beautiful guys mwah xxxxx
