MUA Haul

Seriously, this is my last haul. No more online orders and I'm pretty sure I won't be near any shops anytime soon.

I will apologise in advance for the slightly (very) shoddy camera work, my only excuse is that in Scotland we don't get real sunlight.

This is a photo of the complete works :)

So I finally caved and bought the 'Heaven and Earth' Palette and am wearing it today. I won't bog down this post with swatches as the blogosphere is littered with them :P

I am looooving the colours in the bottom left and top right. I've been so tempted to buy the Naked Palette but I think considering how many browns I have in general it would be a waste of money.

I also (having heard many good things) bought the Immaculate Palette, £8 for 24 colours. Good price indeedy.

I'm subscribed to the MUA blog (click here) and they often use this eyeliner for nail designs. I think it was £1 so hopefully it'll work if not then it was a huge amount to have wasted. 

And lastly, I couldn't resist buying some varnishes. I think I may need some sort of counselling to help me through this addiction.

So that is my haul, last one for a while (or at least till I go back to Uni) :P

Have a good day my chums x x x

P.S Wrote this a few days ago I am now back in the Shire :D but am shooting off to Glasgow to celebrate my friends 20th massively excited! Hopefully tomorrow when I'm hungover and dying I'll get some blog posts written :) Take care xxx

Nailing it : Smokey Brown + Molten Lava

I recently got a few new Elf brushes and couldn't resist getting a new nail varnish. I have a serious problem, I'm admitting I need help.

This is number 12 "smokey brown" by Elf which you can buy here. I don't normally like browns but I thought I'd give it a try and I actually really liked this colour, it was really shiny. In two coats it gives you the finish you can see above.

The tips started to chip after about two days and I was going to take it off but then I decided to paint the tips. My brother's girlfriend gave me this for christmas;

 I don't know the brand 'Rococo'... Perhaps worth a google.

I very rarely do "extra" things to my nails but I really like this, and had the extra bonus of meaning I didn't have to take my nail varnish off :)

Talk later chumettes. xxx

NAIL me anytime : Razzle Dazzle

So in last months glossy box I'm sure the whole world and his dog is aware we received Deborah Lipmann's Razzle Dazzle:

Yes I do know its the wrong way round :| Blame the computer

It really is rather lovely! 

I was so excited when I found out this was one of the products and soooo unbelievably annoyed when it arrived the day after I got home from university. Sigh. That my chumlets is my life... (I'm allowed to be self-pitting I can't walk!)

I love nail varishes with big glitter, never really been a huuuuge fan of small glitter it sort of reminds me of being a kid wearing sparkly polish. But this is lovely:

It's quite sheer when it's on in one coat but in two is a lovely maroon/wine colour. It's gorgeous! I'm assuming it's just me and my (ridiculously) bad habit of biting and picking at my nails but this started chipping in just 2 days, but for this I shall happily blame myself.

I don't know if I (as a scrounging student) would pay the RRP of £16.00... I don't think so but then I'm reluctant to pay over a fiver for any nail varnish. Overall I'm mighty glad we got the chance to try this!

Loving it glossy box!!

Lovely new Hat ;)

Well, it is Christmas time... sort of. But it's still bloody cold in Scotland. And I do need a hat! That cannot be contested!

However, do I need a hat costing £32 pounds... well no. But It was the last one! I loved it since I saw Fleur ( youtube ) wearing it. I looked for ages, then gave up hope.

Went shopping with the boyfriend back in Edinburgh and Oh My God the last one left!

It's extravagant . It's silly. Awfully expensive for a novelty item. But I just love it. A woman told me today it was lovely so I stand by my "ridiculous" ( as the boyfriend put it) choice.

I'm currently loving on my nails;

I appreciate the picture quality is poor. But the colour on the nails is very true its Elf  - Red Velvet. It's gorgeous it's red but definitely has the right amount of pink in it. It's gorgeous!

I'm planning on showing what I got over the university break, although not in the sales as they were rubbish! Massively excited to get my new camera :)

Love and kisses to you all. Oh look >>>> twitter :O :O :O
