Hey guys,

I recently picked up this technic eyeshadow palette in a budget beauty shop near me. I had heard of this brand before but I had never bought any of their products. I got this for £1.99. They were also selling another pallet that kind of reminded me of the sunset palette from sleek, but I didn't fancy the colours in that one so only picked up this one.  


The palette is basically the same packaging as all the sleek palettes.




I was really surprised with how pigmented this turned out to be. All of these swatches were done with one swipe of the colour. I am in love with the olive green shade but haven't worn it on my eyes yet. I don't think it will go with my blue hair :P. I can't believe the colours are so good for something that was £1.99 it works out at about 17p per eyeshadow! If you see this product I would definitely recommend picking it up.

Hey, two posts on one day I'm on a role. I did this manicure a few weeks ago now and really loved it. It combined two of my new favourite Barry M gelly's Mango and Pasion fruit with Barry M black multi glitter over the top. This is so wearable and pretty I loved wearing this manicure.




Hope you enjoy

Hey guys,
It seems that I am slightly obsessed with flowers and butterflies at the moment. I have done two butterfly pattern nails but I wasn't really happy with either. Today's nails though I am so happy with. I also used my new mango Barry M jelly, I bought this just to collect the new colours as oranges don't usually suit my skin tone. However I started using it the other day and it is the perfect orange tone for my skin. I am so happy with it, although mango flesh is in my opinion a lot more yellow in real life than this colour. Anyway pictures than a short tutorial.



To create this nails I started with a base colour of mango as I already mentioned. I then sponged Barry M lemon ice-cream over the middle of all the nails. Next I painted the tips of my nails black and added white dots using a small dotting tool. Then with my black nail art pen I drew the butterfly wing pattern over the orange. I finished with a coat of fast dry top coat. 

Hope you enjoy,
Lauren :D
