TOP LIP PRODUCTS OF THE MOMENT!


As it has been a while since I've posted, I thought I would give you a little update on what lip products I have been loving at the minute. Even though two of them are not really summery colours, I think it's okay to not play by the rules sometimes!


1. Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain in Crush - £5.99 from Boots.
I received this as a Christmas present and haven't put it down since. This is a always in my bag and pretty much take it anywhere with me. Sometimes I layer it with something bright just to tone it down a little!

2. Collection Cream Puff Lip Cream in Cotton Candy - £2.99 from Boots.
I used this a lot last summer and it is surprising still going strong, I thought it would of dried out by now! This is one of those 'your lips but better' colours for those days when you don't want anything too in your face.

3. Rimmel Kate Matte Lipstick in 107 - £3.50 from Asos.
When I first bought this lipstick, I was a bit scared of the colour and thought that I had wasted my money. Using this with a light hand, you can make the colour quite subtle and then gradually apply more to get the colour you feel most comfortable with.

4. Barry M Lip Paint in 151 - £4.49 from Boots.
I bought this colour a while ago but I didn't really use it that much. I was getting ready to go out for a family meal, no where posh so I thought that I would wear something different on my lips for a change. I pick this out of my lipstick stand and put it back, pick it up and put it back again. I then thought 'what the hell' and just applied it. Since then, we have become the best of friends!

I hope you've enjoyed reading! I will be posting new content once or twice a week, so come back soon to see if there is anything new. Please follow my blog via BlogLovin, there is a little follow widget on my blog! What are you favourite lip products at the minute? Let me know in the comments section!

RED, GOLD AND SILVER GLITTER NAIL TUTORIAL

For as long as I can remember I have bitten my nails. I am stupidly shy so I've always put it down nerves. As I'm getting older now, I need to get out of the habit. For Christmas, my Mam paid for me to have acrylics done on Christmas Eve and I haven't bitten them since, yay me! I finally took them off yesterday and to stop me from biting them, I decided to make them pretty. I didn't really have anything in mind and just went with it, so I thought I would do a little tutorial for you guys. 


I first applied a base coat which I would never normally do, but I want to start taking care of my nails properly as they so stupidly weak. I then applied two coats of Ciate's Dangerous Affair (little review here). The colour of the polish in the bottle is what it looks like on your nails but I had my flash on.


Next, I applied Barry M Nail Paint in Yellow Topaz Glitter on just under half of the nail. The glitter has chunks of hexagon shaped glitter and fine glitter mixed together, which I sometimes have trouble applying evenly. 


Finally, I applied Barry M Nail Paint in Silver Glitter (review here) over the top of the gold for more texture and variety. I probably should of done it the other way round, but I think it looks okay. 

I love looking at my nails in the light. I love looking at all the different colours and I find myself doing it a lot. Simple things, simple minds haha. I hope I have inspired you to chuck a load of glitter on your nails! What is your favourite glitter polish? Let me know below!

BLOGUARY - CHLOE REVIEWS:- BARRY M GLITTER NAIL PAINT - DAY 15!



Hey guys, welcome to Bloguary day 15! This Limited Edition Polish came out at Christmas I think, but obviously you can't get it in shops no more, so this review is going to be on all the glitter polishes from Barry M I have tried rather than just this polish itself.. I hope that made sence?


What the website says:- ' Glitzy Glam! Be extreme.
These are ideal to be the knockout party disco diva, whatever your age!Bright shades bursting with minute particles, you’ll certainly get noticed with these enamels wherever you go to party. '





Texture and Pigmentation:- The texture of the polish because of the glitter isn't completely smooth, but it doesn't flake or anything like that. When pairing it with a colour nail polish, I only use 1 coat, but if you wanted to wear it on it's own, then I think it you would need about 2 coats. Don't apply too thickly because the polish will then peel.


Scent:- The scent is the same as every other nail polish really.




Packaging and Price:- The packaging isn't anything great or tacky, because it is only a nail polish at the end of the day. As long as it stops the polish from drying inside and you can see the colour of the polish through the packaging, that's good enough packaging for me. You can pick these polishes up from the Barry M website or in Superdrug fro £2.99.


I hope you've enjoyed Day 15 of Bloguary! Have you tried out any of these glitter paints yet?

CHLOE REVIEWS: Barry M Lip Paint


I have been testing these out for about 3 months on and off :-)

What the website says: All Lip Paint's have a soft, beautiful smooth texture that is packed full of natural moistures to help them glide on and stay comfortable to wear for hours.

Texture: It glides on your lips pretty good and even better with a balm underneath. 


Colour: They have good pigmentation but wear off badly after a few hours. I thought that with the intense colour that they are, they would of left a little stain on my lips but they didn't, you have to reapply them after about 2 hours. I have the colours '151' and '53'.

Packaging & Price: The packaging is sleek and smooth. It has that rubbery feel to it so it attracts more dirt but it easily comes off. The price is £4.50 from Superdrug or from the Barry M Website.


I hope you enjoyed reading and liked the new way I have laid out my reviews, let me know what you think!
