L'Oreal Paris Nail Wraps



Nail art is seriously BIG right now. And if you're not one to spend half a day sticking gems to your finger tips/eyebrows/hair/fave pair of jeans, then try out this super cute range by L'Oreal Paris. It really is as simple as peel, stick, trim. 

I only put tips on (and then added an extra coat of clear to seal the deal) as the whole nail looked a bit too bling for my tastes. 

The packet claims these transfers last for two weeks, which is rather optimistic in my opinion. I had to peel mine off after one evening as the corners lifted a little. And I did find that the transfers looked a bit bumpy round the edges. But in general, if you want a bit of fun nail art for under a tenner, then give these little transfers a try.

Weekly Product Pick: L'Oreal's Rouge Caresse


As you all should know by now, I absolutely love lip-wear. And this has to be my daily handbag staple. It's reasonably priced (£8.19, available from Boots - and often on 3 for 2, huzzah!) and aesthetically matches up to higher end brands such as Dior Addict (£24 *yes, it IS worth it, but sometimes you just have to economise) so this little lippy will still look ultra glam when you whip it out of your handbag. Lush.

What I like most about this lipstick though, is just how perfect it is for any occasion. It adds an instant dewy glow without being too much, banishing deathly pale lips in an instant. As much as I'm a fan of a bold lip, it has a time and a place. This warm coral is a brilliant, kissable, every-day shade.
