Glitter wars.

Glitter nail varnishes are the bomb. You know they are. I love using glitter on an accent nail or just layering them on every nail and having disco ball nails, haha. 3 of my favourites so far are- 
Models own- ibiza mix (on the right)
Models own- Boogie nights (on the left)
Barry M nail paint- Amethyst glitter.



One coat.

Two coats.

Three coats.
These polishes are ideal for top coats or on their own. Barry M's nail paint in Amethyst glitter is definitely the most opaque out of three, both model's own polishes came up similar in opacity.
Ibiza mix is a good one to layer on top of bright colours, it has multiple colours of glitter in it, and different sizes. Boogie nights looks good over purple's mainly, it has different sizes and shapes of lilac, pink and blue. The lilac pieces can look holographic when it's in the light. I love using glitter on an accent nails, and the chunkiness of the models own glitters make them really stand out.

Glitters are my favourite type of polish and these three are probably my favourite ones. Although I hate waiting for polish to dry and the Models own ones aren't exactly fast. The Barry M polish definitely dries quicker. Another problem that comes with glitter polish is taking it off, although I prefer the model's own colours the barry M one comes off easier.

The Models own ones retail at £5.00 and the Barry M £2.99.
You can pick up the Barry M one here, and the models own ones here.


What do you think about glitter nail polishes? Which are your fave?

Super sunny outfit of the day!

I apologise in advance for the poor background.... think of it as messy chic?  We're having building done outside and I had no one to take the picture for me, so a cringy photo in the mirror it had to be.




Sunglasses never have suited me, I still insist on wearing them though.

Where is your outfit from?

- Dress is from the Cameo & Rose concession in New Look- On sale for £12 at the moment!
- Lilac Sandals- Primark £3.50.
- Ray ban Clubmaster dupe style Sunglasses- Asda- £3.00


What's been your essential in this hot weather? Cam xxxx

Why is my handbag so heavy?!

I thought today I'd do a 'What's in my bag post'. *Little disclaimer* like all bloggers say, I haven't sorted out what's in my bag, this just happens to be what's in there.



I'm such a hoarder, my bag constantly weighs a ton. I bought the bag years ago from Miss Selfridge but it's a pretty basic bag just with the big gold chain on the front.


So what's in there I hear you ask...

A good few make up products, haha, including

  • a Real Techniques brush
  • No.7 powder brush
  • 2 face powders- Maybelline fit me and Max factor one.
  • 3 lip products- Sleek lipstick in Mystic, Mac lipstick in Party Parrot and a rosy lips Vaseline.
  • 2 mascara's- Mini Benefit they're real and Maybelline the Colossal volum' express cat eyes.
  • Benefit Sun beam ( which I'm loving at the moment!)
  • Nail Varnish from Revlon- Strawberry Electric.






  • 2 pairs of sunglasses, a glasses case which doesn't match either pairs of sunglasses. (My normal glasses would normally be in there too, but I'm currently wearing them, haha,)
  •  Denman hairbrush.
  • J-Lo glowing perfume. This is my handbag perfume because to be honest it's not my favourite so I don't mind carrying it in there so much.
  • 1 Pen.
  • A half a pack of Extra chweing gum- Spearmint ;)
  • One bobble and a few bobby pins.
  • A pair of earrings from New Look I think, a ring, toe ring from River Island and a Virgo necklace.







  • Clinique mirror- super handy size!
  • My house and car keys.
  • My purse-  which is the brand BIBA and I bought it in House of fraser about a year ago.

Hope you enjoyed the sneak peak inside my bag!

June empties!

Hey Guys! 
I know, I'm sorry I'm late with this post. But then again, better late than never eh? So let's get started. I was pretty impressed with myself this month, I finished quite a few products. I'm going to try and keep it brief, we've got a lot to get through, hahha.


The first product is the - Olay gentle cleansers conditioning milk. It's for normal/dry combination skin. The bottle contains 200ml.
This product was a bit of a meh for be, I don't really think it did much. It was ok, it didn't break me out but as far as cleansing it's not the best I've ever used.
- Garnier moisture match- dull skin 1.5ml.
This sample came in my magazine and I really enjoyed it, I'll definitely buy the full size soon.

- Superdrug 100% pure cotton wool round pads- 100 pads.
A basic product, but a good one, they're a good size for removing make up and nail varnish. It's likely I will buy these again.

- Max factor face finity 3 in 1 foundation- primer, concealer and foundation in one. SPF 20 light ivory 40- 30ml.
It's not that often I get through a whole foundation but I liked this quite alot. It did have quite a thick consistency which I liked and the coverage was good. It didn't cling to dry patches or make me look oily. I'd definitely consider re-purchasing this in the autumn/winter.

- YSL everlong mascara- 9ml.
This is a great product, I loved this. It doesn't give you clumpy eyelashes and it doesn't flake off. It's an all round good product in my eyes!

- Mac penultimate eye liner- rapidblack- 1.0g.
Again I loved this product! The tip is super thin which makes it so easy to create a good line. It's a deep black colour and it's not overly matte or 'shiny'. I'll definitely be buying this again!

- Dove go fresh anti-perspirant deodrant- 0% alcohol 48h, energising grapefruit and lemongrass scent. 250ml. Another love, the scent reminds me of summer and it works. I'll re- purchase this again.

- Sure women crystal clear diamond- 24hr, 0% alcohol. Incredible white mark protection. I've not noticed any problems with the white marks, all in all it's on of the best deodrants for me. You get 250ml. The can claims it is special edition but It's normally in shops. A good all round deodrant, it smells good and works well, again I'd re-purchase this deodrant.

- LUSH turkish delight shower smoothie- 90g,  First of all Lush have an offer where if you take back 5 pots you get free face mask which normally cost around £5. I love this product and I'm looking to buy it again, it's smells lovely and feels super smooth on the skin.

- Ro's Argan body conditioner- 45g. This product is similar to the new Nivea in shower conditioner, although this is definitely thicker and in my opinion works better. It does leave a smooth layer over your skin, slightly like an oil but not as greasy. I'd love to buy this again.

Have you shop'd your stash lately?
