Tweet I am sure many of you have already heard of Magnetic Nail Polish – these polishes contain very fine metallic particles and if you apply a magnet to them whilst they are still wet, they move around creating unique patterns. It’s a clever idea! Someone finally put it together, a bit like the Crackles we are all now used to seeing. A few brand offer magnetic polish, the ones I am looking at here are No 18 Magnetized Nail {Read More}
Tweet One of the things I look for when it comes to nail polish is that it is fast drying..although no matter how fast it dries I always seem to smudge my polish! How do people stay still enough for their polish to dry completely?!?! I have had a few No. 17 Polishes before and I have to say, I am impressed with them. These 3 colours are fairly new releases! No 17 Fast Finish Nail Polish in Silk (rich {Read More}
Tweet **For the next 6 days I’ve got 6 speed mascara reviews coming up. Who will be victorious?!** I reviewed the No 17 Photo Flawless Foundation and Primer recently and now it’s the turn of the mascara! I like how this comes in different variations – Black-Green, Black-Gold and Black-Blue. Mine is black-gold. Can I tell once it’s on my lashes? No, not really. This is the brush – it’s big, it’s curved, it’s quite hard…
Tweet Boots No. 17′s newest primer and foundation is called Photo Flawless – who doesn’t want to look flawless in pictures eh? I do find that foundations (such as Make Up For Ever HD) make you look a bit ‘dead’ in real life. So how would this duo compare? I am madly into primers of all kinds so this teeny tube piqued my interest. 17 make-up artist Vanesa Guallar says: “Apply the silky formula all over your face and to {Read More}
Tweet Boots No. 17 seems to have been rather creative this time round for Spring because I found myself lusting after a few of the items, so I thought I’d share the images with you. Launched on the 28th of January 2011 is the Vintage Loves collection, which has these two pretty eyeshadow palettes (Limited Edition) in Metallic Nude and Pretty Pastels £5.49 each: As soon as I saw this palette I though Integrate – completely reminds me of a {Read More}
Tweet I’m going through my relatively small nail polish collection and photographing my favourite shades. This week is Oranges! I was seriously surprised by this little beauty from Boots No. 17 when I got it. The texture is fabulous – it’s a little bit thin, which I like, it was so easy to apply and smooth, the colour was vivid and it dried quickly, and lasted a week with no top coat. LOVE. I would happily buy more of these. {Read More}
Tweet Whenever I get another mascara to review, I am half expecting to be disappointed. See, I have these troubles, straight lashes that rarely behave; most mascara’s don’t work for me. Boots No. 17 new mascara, Wild Curls says it will hold curl for up to 10 hours. They say: The innovative shocking pink brush coats and coaxes for clump-free, ravishing lashes. The wild brush has soft, uneven bristles that allow you to get right to the root and dramatically {Read More}
Tweet Boots No. 17 have released a collection of lipstick in bright blue shiny cases called “Mirror On”. Can you guess what they’ll be like yet? Containing the perfect combination of pigment and micro pearls, it cleverly reflects the light to create the optical illusion of fuller lips and gives a super sheer, wet-look finish. 17 make-up artist, Vanesa Guallar, said: “This lipstick has the perfect combination of pigment and micro pearls to create super-shiny look lips with volume. The {Read More}
