My Nails This Week - NYC Review!

This will be so hard to explain hahaha!

Okay so, you all know I bought this when I went to Stamford and on Thursday night I finally tried it out and used it for this weeks nails.

Its a pinky nude color and its quite hard for me to explain the shade because its not a tan/brown nude its more of a peachy pink nude.

Its very light once you first apply it, but if you do two coats its quite clear to see the shade. I applied black polka dots which really defined the color and brought it out. 

I didnt have many colors like this, so I decided to buy it and see how nude colors suited me. I think they look really nice and this shade is still summery although its not very bright.

This is the OhSohoSweet shade from NYC color which I love their nail polish brands.. and they're only £1.99! (I love a bargain).

It dries really quickly and is lovely and shiny without a clear coat - I didnt add one.

Its lovely and suits everything because its nude.

Definately buy again!

Lots of love..

Superdrug Orange&Satsuma Shower Gel Review

the swatch of it. its very thick.

I like the lid... 

I used this flannel, to apply.

Although it was 89p, the packaging is really nice.

Hey everyone! So I havent posted in a while (again) but, I always save my posts up to post in one so then you lot have a good read instead of doing one daily, I think its best to wait a while and post them whenever. 

So, you all know I bought this last week at Stamford, I still need to do a YouTube video which im lagging on, but, its coming soon! Im trying haha.

This was 89p from Superdrug.I didnt expect it to be anything special or strong scented but woah, its great!

I love the lid, purely because it keeps it clean (although this doesnt work for me, im clumsy). It has a rubber tip where the gel will come out of, instead of directly out of the bottle. 

I really like the color of it, it looks very strong scented just by looking at it. 

I squirted the same amount on my hand at first onto a flannel, a damp one, and lathered it into my skin, I then added a lot more and rubbed it in. Its not amazingly thick and soapy on the skin, but you can smell it a little afterwards. Its not amazing but for 89p its better than some £2+ items!!

I really like it and would buy it again, maybe I just needed a better cloth and added more.. but I 100% recommend and would buy again! It looks like it would last long too.

Lots of love..

What I Bought Today

Close up of the necklace.. so pretty..

I reaaaalllyyy liked the lid of the shower gel!

Nail polish! cant go a day without purchasing!

OhSohoSweet...

Its a lovely nude, I have no shades like this..

Zofias been shopping!

Mmmm.. gorgeous!

So, thats a lot of photos!

I went to Stamford today, which is like 12 minutes away from me and they have a few shops there like Wilko, M&S, Superdrug, Savers, Boots etc so we just walk the dog there for the meadows and I had some money to spend so we walked up to the shops. Its only a small little place - google?! - but I enjoy it more than Peterborough.. where I live.

So ill guide you through what I bought and then later on when I use the things ill review them a little bit more.

• Start off in the list order. I bought myself a necklace as I dont have many, I have more earrings than necklaces and I thought this was super pretty! Its a bronzy gold color and is on a thin chain. Its got some pretty hearts hanging off an O shape and these are all different patterns. This would go with pretty much everything and for £2 rather than £5 i thought it was a bargain! I got this from Superdrug!
• I then bought a flannel, this is an essential because I needed a new one, they need changing every now and again! So this was about 33p from Wilko, I dont really mind about the cheap price tag, it does its job haha! I got this in a Fushia pink, its lovely & soft.
• From Savers, for £1, I got the new Charlie spray, this is in 'Enchant' the bottle design drew me in and I think its really pretty with the pastel blue color. Ive sprayed this a little bit to smell it, but Ill do a separate review on this. Its in its normal bottle ml and says it contains 'honeysuckle, wild apple and coconut'.
• I then got myself a new shampoo to try out seeing as my Garnier Fructis shampoo has run out, review here-  http://resterbellex.blogspot.co.uk/2012/07/okay-so-this-is-bit-of-different-post-i.html - plus, I hate buildup so I love to change. This is Lychee & Coconut. Well, Ill review this in a new post but.. I have no idea what Lychee is, haha. I love coconut at the moment, so I bought this. £1 from Savers.
• Everytime I go shopping/out I always pick up a nail polish! I have a reasonably large collection so I think a sortout is in order! This is another NYC nail polish, Ive never bothered with them before but I have 3 now and I love NYC! This is in OhSohoSweet and is a very plain nude color that ive been wanting for a while so for £2, you cant complain! Ill also review this soon!

So, I got quite a lot, I wonder if you've tried any of these?

Lots of love..

Soap&Glory Clean On Me Review

I love the product packaging!

Clean on me..

The pump is really handy.

Hi guys! So, ive found something to post! Ive been a bit quiet on here lately, just because ive been on YouTube etc.

This is a product ive been using recently, so I thought I would just review it.

I like the way it has a pump, so you get the right amount out, not just pouring it on. I like the fact its bottle/container whatever its called, is a big quantity for the price.. available at boots -  http://www.boots.com/en/Soap-Glory-Clean-On-Me-Creamy-Clarifying-Shower-Gel-500ml_27846/ - its £5.50 so I think this is an amazing price although I got it in the £60 box.

I love the smell! Its typical Soap&Glory infused and I just love it! If someone said 'what does it smell like?' I couldn't actually explain because Soap & Glory has that certain smell?! Im weird..

It says its made with Mandarin peel extract but, doesn't say what else.. 

Its very creamy and lathers on the body well.

I apply it to the body with a flannel or a net and rub in well. I can still smell it on my body when I get out and apply Soap&Glory moisturizer!
Theres nothing that I dont like, its great for price and great for everyday use!
Just thought I would tell you what I thought of it, since ive been using it.

Lots of love..

Nails This Week!

My nails this week!

For the look I used;
MUA £1 nailpolish shade16
NYC glitter polish in lights-camera-glitter £1.75
LA colors nail polish in Energy Source 99p

I love glitter!

What I used to create them, including clear coat, this added a shine

Finished look!

Hey! Ive used my MUA nail polish to create a really pretty, summery, girly look and I love it! 
So ill explain how I created them, its not too difficult and ill explain what I like/dislike etc..the usual!
I used MUA nail polish that I bought the other day, this is shade 16 and its such a lovely bubblegum color which actually matches my Nicki Minaj MAC lipstick! It applies so well, and makes my nails look long for some reason?! I really like it, like I said in the haul post, its worth every penny in the pound! Im defo going to buy again!
Moving on to my ring finger; ive never really done a different color for this finger but ive seen it as a bit of a trend recently and it takes some getting used to but its pretty. I applied my LA colors nail polish shown above which I like, 2 coats gives a lovely,thick white. Worth the money too. I then applied the glitter nail polish on the top which adds some bling/glitz to the pink/white which looks amazing! I added a clear coat to the top of the nails to make the glitter shiny and to make the pink really shiny too. Definitely would do this look again!
What nails do you have this week?

Lots of love..

July Favourites

My July favourites, this months gone super fast!

The No7 primer swatch.

Great for the price..

The first left color..

..second one left - the last one..

Hello! ..again!
So this post is about my July favourites. I recorded this video and re-recorded this video on YouTube earlier in the week, so the video is done but I thought I would add a post to here telling you all my favourites too. I like to add to both.
My July faves consist of things I use in summer or have recently been using.
My summer faves consist of;

• LA colors palette. This is from Beauty Base in Westfield-Shepards Bush. It was 98p I think, but dont take my word for it.. I got it a while back! As you can see from the swatches, its really pigmented and for near £1 people might look and think 'its cheap, its rubbish' but looking at the swatches, I hope its changed your mind because although its cheap, its still really good. I would use this a lot in the sunny/warm weather because its bronzy shades would really suit the sun and they're very shimmery so its a bonus. It come with an applicator which really pacts on the color. Then, using a blending brush, you could really achieve a nice summery, daytime, smoky look using light/dark bronzes.
• My next fave is the Cats Eyes Colossal mascara from Maybelline. I love this and love the applicator. As I said on my YouTube video, it really curls the lashes without an eyelash curler (which Ive never used and never plan to). Its lasted a long while, had it since Christmas 2011. I think its great for the summer because it defines eyes and sets fast so its not liquid form when you're out and about. I love the packaging. I use this alot and its always applied on me so I would totally buy again.. I love all Maybelline mascaras. This was about £8.
• No7 shine free primer is the next one. Im mixed opinioned on this because its good, keeps me matte for like 30 mins and then i get oily, I prefer to use loose powder now, but I might try using loose powder with this as I havent yet. I like this, thats why its in my faves but sometimes it can leave white lines if it not blended enough. This can happen when it dries on the face too. Id only get this again if I got the no7 vouchers, like how I purchased it before. Its good for summer as it should keep most people matt and not oily skinned. Its £11 to buy.
• Next is Next's Just Pink lipbalm. Ive used half of this since Christmas 2012, an old friend got me it and I really like it. It came with the rollerball Just Pink perfume and it smells lovely. I dont know how much this is and should be in there winter time, unless they stock it all year. Its good to keep lips moist and is a good alternative to heavy lipstick or a thick lipgloss.
• Ive already reviewed the So...? Brit spray before so, Im not really going to go on about it because its a bit boring to keep repeating. But, I love this because its good for out-and-about to keep fresh. Its also really fresh&fruity and i would buy it again! £1 from Boots, Tesco etc.
• Garnier Fructis shampoo..mm! This is great. I got this a few weeks back and use it for every wash. It keeps my hair going until it gets oily (which is really fast, every other day) and it smells a bit plain..like apples.. but its really good and keeps hair shiny so Im not moaning about the smell! It didnt make my hair glossy or anything but it did make straightening easy, seeing as this takes a while.. Id probably buy this again, after a few weeks. (I dont like buildup!)
• Last one.. best till last! I love this! If I didnt like saving things and keeping things for ages, this would be gone within 2 weeks! Its amazing, the smells amazing, the consistency is amazing.. just.. amazing! Beauty Base is where I got it, I think it was 98p and I said this on Youtube but looking back, I think it was £1.75.. I really cant remember. But, under running water it foams up so fast and you can smell it really well too. Its good as a shower gel or just to apply to skin in the bath. You can smell it afterwards on your skin too, I just LOVE the coconut smell of it! Definately going to buy this again. (Daaaaaad! *angel face*)

So yeah, they're my July favourites and I cant believe how fast this year is going. Only seems like last month it was snowing and I was getting the Christmas tree ready! I feel so old haha!

What things did you like in July?! Post below if you like, id love to know!

Lots of love..

MUA Mini Haul!

Products with their applicators.

swatches. L-R..
MUA lipstick in shade13 £1,
MUA nail polish in shade 16, £1.
MUA eyeliner in shade 5, £1.
MUA lipgloss in shade 3, £1.

The products  I bought.

Hello! So, I know my blog looks a little different with layout and stuff and how pictures are set out, this is because im just changing it about a bit, I think this looks a bit better than how pictures were cluttered together before, so bare with me! 
Ive not posted in a while, simply because there wasnt much to post about, but, I have been on YouTube a lot so, Ill be posting a lot more on here soon.. I just havent been shopping!
But, Ive got a little haul for you, just an MUA one!
So I had £4 to spend, I got a little bit of money off dad, just because I helped him do something haha!
I thought 'Ill get something worth it from MUA!' as I always know if i have £1+ of spare cash, its always nice to get quality and to get something to add to the collection.
I bought these shown above which are all £1 and include; 
MUA lipstick in shade13 £1, 
MUA nail polish in shade 16, £1.
MUA eyeliner in shade 5, £1.
MUA lipgloss in shade 3, £1
My favourite thing that I bought is them all! But I especially LOVE the lipstick! Ive been looking for a shade like this for aaaages and I didnt know MUA did a nice shade like this because on the internet its a dark red?! So go in store to look and not online!!
Its a lot like a MAC shade I wanted & saw but didnt want to pay the £14 price tag.. so Ive saved £13 by just waiting to go into Superdrug. I really think MUA are worth the money and exactly like top brands.
Anyway, moving on to explain.

Starting off with the lipgloss; I think this is a great product for £1. Its great just to have some shimmer on the lips. I dont think its mega pigmented or a big burst of color but, you can tell you have a nice shade on the lips. Ever used glossy tubes lipgloss? Ones that squeeze out of the tube without an applicator? Well its a little like that, because the glossy tubes I have are very shimmery and very transparent. Im not overly keen about the smell, its sickly and vanilla smelling. Some of you might love this and think 'mmmm!' personally I dont like vanilla scent but you might so thats a personal opinion! Overall though, I would buy other shades (the other 5) which only comes to £6.. amazing in my opinion! 

Moving on to the eyeliner; Not much to say about this really! But, I think its a well designed product. Youv might read this and think 'what? its just an eyeliner:s?' but the applicator is amazing! Ive always been used to a thick liquid eyeliner brush that dries out easily and doesnt really look nice. This is such a dark black and looks pigmented on, normally eyeliner goes dry on me and goes a grey color, but I love this and the applicator is lovely and thin and I tried doing a winged look for the first time and successfully done it, just because the applicator is perfect! Definately buy this again, maybe in another color to!? (just not the green!)

Next one; The nail polish. 3 words.. oh my god. I LOVE this! I have 3 other MUA nail polishes (all the £1 ones) and ive liked them, they're pretty but this one.. I want 50 of them hahaha! * exaggerates*. Purely because the color is to die for and its so barbie/pink/girly/bubblegum and with a clear coat looks amazing and so shiny.. mum also has this on and she loves it, we've been looking for a shade like this for ages, during the summer, and we finally found it and she loves it saying it suits long/short nails for any outfit. I agree with this! And, looks good for the sun! I added a bit of glitter on a white nail polish (as you can see) on my ring finger.. the white and the pink go sooo well! Seriously, £1, i recommend you to buy this! 

Everything that I bought, I would 100% buy again! For £4.. how can you go wrong?

I hope you like new layout of photos and stuff, I think it looks neater so yeah.. 

And, I hope you enjoyed this post too!

Lots of love..

Ways to have Eyemakeup in the Summer.

Okay so I was scanning about on Polyvore again, I havent been on in ages and I love creating things that match on there, you can follow me here - http://zofiatamzinx.polyvore.com/ and I do follow back and stuff.

So, I thought I would just do a little post on ways that you could do summer eye makeup. I love summer for all the greens, blues, yellow's, bright colors etc to be worn. Greens/blues suit my eyes/skin color if they're worn in the right ways. So, im just going to go through the best/worst things to do with eye makeup in the summer! I hope you enjoy this post as, I havent posted in a few days.

• Dont opt for big eyes, big lips. You can wear your makeup in any way you want but one of the rules I hate seeing girls do is have big, drama filled lips and their eyes are shimmery, glittery and really highlighted. It takes away the definition of your face and looks really overdone. I make this mistake a lot, I admit.. but if you like following beauty rules, follow this one especially!
• Next one, I think that you should add some dark navys and some blacks but, dont overdo it..  its summer so be bold&bright not bold&dark. I have the odd dark color added into my eyes for definition, but not dark eye makeup like black eyeshadow for a really charcoal/smoky look.
• Its nice to have a bit of shimmer. I dont like having a really glittery face but having a bit of dazzle dust or something added to your lid/crease can look really pretty in the summer, Im starting to like shimmery shadows, if they're not overdone.
• So moving on.. simple.. dont over do it! Ive said this in the past 3, its a big rule. Summer is all about fun colors, fun looks and things but having big blue eyemakeup and silvery glittery eyeliner really doesnt define your looks and make you stand out for good reasons.. If you're going for blue eyes then go for it, just make sure the right shade of blue matches hair/skin and eye color and the rest of the makeup you're going for!
• Golds and silvers can be really nice for the eyes, light silvers of course, its summer! I suggest wearing silvers and golds with a nice winged eyeliner or something for the evening, daytime might look a little dark, but really it is up to you!
• So, they're just a few little hints&tips I use.. I am NOT a pro like I say a lot but my blog is all about what I like to use and I hope it helps you.
