Miners Solo Eyeshadows


Miners have released four new eyeshadows in four dazzling shades perfect for the party season!

These shadows come in plastic packaging, contain 4g and are priced at £3.49.

The colours are:

Luna:        shimmer white/silver
Stardust:   light gold shimmer 
Nautical:   matte cobalt/navy blue 
Jewel:       shimmer emerald green



The shades apply really smoothly (I use an eyeshadow brush and blending brush if necessary). Personally I find it better to apply them a small amount and build up the colour. They are pigmented well and don't have too much fall out.


Overall these colours are great, Stardust is literally my favourite eyeshadow at the moment for the inner eye and lid, really glam and brightening! I will definitely be having some tutorials coming up including this shade.



LUNA                    -                    STARDUST

NAUTICAL                         -                        JEWEL
LUNA       -       STARDUST       -       NAUTICAL       -       JEWEL

Sunday Pedicure Times...



I had a delightful pedicure today... I love getting a pedicure, always nicer to sit back and get pampered wouldn't you agree?!

I'm channelling the chilly weather so opted for a darker blue shade. 

I went for Gelish which is my favourite gel product. The colour is 'Deep Sea' - and it's a gorgeous deep blue with purple undertones. Then to add a pop it was topped with 'Izzy Wizzy, Get Busy' glitter - this is a hologram look glitter, again with purple undertones so it really brings out the overall purple.


Now my toes are done I want to show them off.... definitely too cold for flip flops so might opt for some peep toe heels!

Keeping it Cool

Both nail varnishes are £2.99 each

Hola Ladies!


Picked up 2 new nail varnishes today in Boots. I wanted a pale blue shade as I don't didn't own one...

I went for the 17 brand as I've used their nail varnishes before as they're great quality, reasonably priced and the range of colours is brilliant!




'Mint Choc Chip' is the name of the blue shade. As before it applied like a dream ( 2 coats) and looked great on it's own.

I fancied jazzing it up a little so picked up Barry M's Rose Quartz Glitter - this is a pinky/gold toned chunky glitter and looks fab on! Again I applied 2 coats as I wanted it extra glittery!!!

Both products can be found here: http://www.boots.com/ and are currently on buy one get one half price!!!


What do you girls think? Fan of the glitter nail varnish or dread having to scrub it off?!

Attention All You Scrubbers...




I exfoliate and tan so much it's almost a ritual! Every Wednesday I will exfoliate my whole body and then on the Thursday have a spray tan so I'm lovely and bronzed again!

Today I went hunting in Boots to find a new exfoliant and I wanted to share my amazing find with you!!!!


Soap & Glory PULP FRICTION

I've used a lot of Soap & Glory products in the past and they have all been amazing so I was instantly drawn to this one. The exfoliant comes in a squeezy tube rather then a tub which I prefer - I've found with the tubs they get water in while in the shower and I also use too much!

Pulp Friction cost £8 and has 250ml.



For each arm I used the size of a 10p piece (this was also enough for the chest area), and for each leg I used about a £2 coin amount. When applying the exfoliant I always use gloves so it gives my skin a proper scrub! I would definitely recommend exfoliating gloves over puffs as they are a lot more effective and efficient!







This product when applied is quite thick, it exfoliates amazingly but also foams up and acts as a soap which saved me using my Soap & Glory Clean on Me! It has various fruity smells but does have a bit of 'soap smell afterwards which may put some people off?





Overall I love this product and definitely think it's going to be a new favourite to ensure I have smooth skin and a fab tan!

Soap & Glory are currently on 3 for 2 at Boots...



Have you tried any Soap & Glory products? Whats your favourite exfoliant?
