Mua nails & First Impressions

Helloo my lovelies


This is a little nail post as you can see by the title :) 

I went on a little shopping trip the other week, and wandered into my local super drug and had a look at the MUA 'counter'. They have came out with a new brand of nail polishes, i don't know if they have re made the formula of the nail polish itself, but it is clear that they have changed the bottle size and look of bottle all together. It still has 3ml of product in the bottle though. The bottle looks incredibly similar to the Essie polish bottles as you can see in the picture below that i took to compare them with, that you can also purchase in super drug. although i like it i think they have 'copied' the bottle way too much and tried their damn best to have exact same shape and look. 

My first impressions of the polish is quite good, as i think for a minimal price of a quid, you really are getting what you pay for. The formula is a little runny and uneven to apply with but as soon as you build it up it gives a lovely opaque finish. It gives a very glossy look and with the clear top (which i also bought) on top of it, it just really does look gorgeous and looks like you have spent a little more money than you have on your polish, which for me as a student, is great! 

I think if your just getting into painting your nails and wanting to try some in-expensive nail polishes, i would totally recommend these! There a steal at only £1! They are a great purchase if your on a tight budget and they also have loads of different, pretty, colours to chose from! 

I love them! 






Sorry about the horrible nails, i'm in the middle of growing them out so there nice a pretty for posts like these.

Eyeliner looks

Hello my lovelies :) 

So i know i havent posted anything on here for ages but this is because ive just finished my second year in uni :) so ive been a very busy little bee lately!

So my sister in law was speakig to me about different eye liner looks a while ago and i said that ide do some and take pictures of them and explain how i created them. So here we go :)

1st look

This is just the basic eyeliner look where there is no flick at the end or no definit thick or thin lines. All that you have to do for this is to draw a very thin line right in close to your lash line and this will just eccentuate the lashes and make them appear thicker and fuller.


























2nd look

This is just the same as the 1st look apart from that i added on a flick, all what i had to do for this is to hold the eyeliner pen to the side and pulled it into to attach the 2 lines together and this makes the look a little bit fancier and gives the elusion of longer lashes at the sides :)





3rd look

This is exactly the same as above apart for that i applied more liner to the centre of my eyelid to make the liner thicker and more bold looking.


4th look

This one has a dramatic look, more like an Amy Winehouse look like this one HERE, this is done by doing the same step as the 2nd look apart taking the flick right upto where the brow stops and bring the line down to make a triangle shape that you have to colour in with the liner and into right where tear duct is.


5th look 

This is exactly the same look as the 4th one, all i have done differently to this is i have added black kohl  pencil to the water line on my bottom lashes and i have also tight lined my top lashes. This look could be described as gothy or more rock and roll but i actually quite like it for my more daring days :)



Hope you all enjoyed my little how to post on these eyeliner looks, and if you give it a shot be sure to show me by tweeting me HERE and have with your makeup :) lots of love
