RIMMEL LYCRA PRO NAIL POLISH (500 PEPPERMINT) WITH MAXI BRUSH

Another polish! Blame my mother! Haha. She kindly bought me a few polishes today and said, "sure you can add these to your little blog". Bless her!

This is a lovely mint green polish from Rimmel. This one is different as it has a maxi brush applicator - something I've never seen before in a polish - and I adore it! I wish all polishes came with big thick brushes like this one - it makes painting your nails so quick and easy. Love love love.

GOOD ANTI-BLEMISH PRODUCTS + MY SKIN UPDATE!

It has been well documented here that over the last few months I've had probably one of the worst acne breakouts in my life! I'm still not 100% sure why it happened or how (so far I think a mixture of stress from stopping smoking and some new face products which disagreed with my skin are to blame) but thankfully I can say that it looks like my skin is starting to get back to normal! Yay!

ILLAMASQUA LIQUID METAL - RESOLUTE

This is my first ever Illamasqua purchase! Tis' unbelievable that I haven't got anything from this brand in my collection until now. I am saving up to try their foundation in the very light shade as I've heard good things from the beauty blogging world about it. As I'm sure you all know my love for the Maybelline Colour Tattoos is immense and so I decided to go up a notch and try a luxury version of this cream eyeshadow. I was browsing the sales and came across Illamasqua and my eyes instantly set on this product. The colour just spoke to me, it was so beautiful and unique and I knew it was coming home with me! I was also pleasantly surprised to see it was reduced from £17.50 to £10, so I knew I was getting a good deal. 

RIMMEL MATCH PERFECTION FOUNDATION

As much as I love Rimmel products, I had never rated their foundations - mainly because they were far too dark for my porcelain skin. However, going on the recommendation of my fellow beauty blogger Jenny via her 'jeneral rambling' blog here - in which she informed me that the brand have released a really pale shade of their new foundation - I decided to give it a go. And I'm happy I did! I only payed £4 for this as it was on offer (usually it is around £6.99) and I'm so pleased at how much of a bargain this cosmetic is.
