FLORAL KIMONO - NOTD- NEON TIGER PRINT AND... GIVEAWAY WINNER ANNOUNCED

Believe it or not, but I managed to find this gorgeous piece for £4.99 from H&M!!!
It was also available in black , but it sold out quickly and I didn't get a chance to order one.

Would you wear a kimono? Or just like my husband, you consider it a bedroom garment?  



I wore it with a black skirt.

I like neon colours and I decided to wear neon orange tights and I painted my nails with neon orange  tiger print :)

I used:
Models Own Neon Sorbet Nail Polish as a base
black MUA polish for the print with Konad plate M57
and a glossy top coat from Bourjois




The winner of my last H&M and Rimmel giveaway is...

I will contact the winner via email today x

LEOPARD PRINT- BLACK AND GOLD- WITH KONAD

I don't want my blog to turn into a nail blog :) but I just love sharing my latest nail polish purchases and creations with you :)
Today I went for black and gold leopard print look.
All products used, are on the last picture. I love my Konad stamping kit and I ordered more plates with different designs. They are so easy to use, and you can create so many looks with just one plate and many colour combinations.

I ♥ MAKING BATH BOMBS


I love bath bombs, and I used to be addicted to Lush ones, but... I figured that it will be cheaper and more fun to make them myself. I bought all the ingredients and "equipment"  to make them and here is the final effect. I will try to add a tutorial in the future.
The fresh ones I photographed, are scented with vanilla and lemon grass and decorated with rose petals :)



In a wicker basket, with cute tissue paper and ribbons they make a great gift x

Strong natural nails- Trind nail repair treatment review

Hi everyone.
I've been using Trind nail treatment* for over two weeks now and I can finally share my thoughts on it with all of you.
Trind is a Dutch company that sells nail and hand care products. Some of you may be familiar with the brand or this nail treatment, as it was included in Carmine and Glossybox a while ago.
I wasn't a subscriber back then, but I was sent this product by Trind for review purposes.
If you want to have a look at their website, here it is: www.trind.com
You can get this treatment from The Garden Pharmacy that sent this product to me.
It retails at £12.95 for a 9ml bottle and you can buy it by clicking here
It's designed to make your nails strong by using a special formula that doesn't dry out your nail, but keeps the moisture in and makes the nails look healthy and pampered.
You need to apply the treatment to your nails every day for a period of two weeks ( before applying again, remove the former coat). After two weeks its recommended as a weekly treatment to keep your nails strong. It has got a nice glossy finish and it looks very natural.

My nails are naturally very weak, they break and split and I really struggle to grow them.
I need to admit that it worked wonders for me. My nails are stronger and I managed to grow them and didn't break one nail in the past two weeks-just so you know-I do a lot of housework every day and I have got a baby boy that is very very active, so my hands are in extreme use 24/h.
I definitely recommend this product. Its worth the price and it will probably last me for over a year, as after using it for two weeks there is still about 90% of the product left.

BE MY VALENTINE

Happy Valentine's Day to all my amazing readers!

Today I would love to share some pictures that I took in the morning in the search of heart shaped and love themed items in my house :) and a sneak peek of some of the presents I received from my husband.
Obviously I also painted my nails for the occasion :)  I used Barry M nail polish in fuchsia 302 and I added some cute nail stickers later  :) My husband got me the most beautiful silver jewellery with pearls and a lovely matching card with silver embossing  :) I also received a cute teddy bear :) I made some heart shaped cupcakes and we will have a three course meal later on.

I hope you like this picture heavy post :)

JASON natural care- Super-C cleanser, toner, Hyper-C serum and Quick Clean makeup remover pads

I always liked organic skincare products, so I was extremely happy when I was given the opportunity to review JASON products. If you haven't heard about this organic brand, have a look at their website www.jasonnaturalcare.co.uk. All Jason products are made with NO artificial colours or animal by-products, are vegetarian and packed in bio-degradable packaging. JASON product range covers: Skin Care, Hair Care, Sun CareChildren and Baby CareDental Care, a choice of products for Men and also a selection of travel sizes.


I am nearly 25 and ageing started to concern me, so I decided to try Jason's anti-ageing range boosting with vitamins C,E and multi-antioxidant complex of Ester-C® :) The C-effects anti-ageing range helps to fight free radicals that contribute to fine lines, wrinkles and uneven skin tone. The C-effects range gives your face a natural healthy glow and that's exactly what I was looking for.







1.C-Effects™ Hyper-C Serum® *
This little bottle is full of goodness and perfect for tired skin. It contains concentrated multi-antioxidant complex of Ester-C®, Vitamin C, Thioctic Acid, Vitamin E and Green Tea. It will help to prevent skin discoloration and make your complexion nice and even. I had some dark pigmentation marks on my face since last summer and after 2 weeks of using this magic serum I can hardly notice them! I am very impressed! It worked wonders on my face and it smells absolutely amazing. The consistency is perfect- not too watery, not to thick-just right. It is absorbed immediately, leaving my skin feeling nourished and hydrated. I used it in the morning and at night after cleansing and toning my skin. I can definitely recommend this to anybody with skin discoloration. The 30 ml bottle costs £25.49 and you can get it here.


2.C-Effects™ Super-C™ Cleanser*
I loved it from the first sniff :) It really does smell amazing, like fresh oranges. It makes me feel very refreshed and gives my skin a nice boost of energy. It removes make up and excess oil, leaving my skin perfectly clean. It helps to clarify and brighten complexion, especially if it is used every day with other products from the anti-ageing C-effects range. It doesn't contain  Parabens, Phthalates or Sodium Lauryl / Laureth Sulfates. The bottle is a generous size-150ml and it costs a very reasonable £10.29 here

3.C-Effects™ Super-C™ Toner*
Just like the cleanser, the Super-C toner smells lovely and refreshing. I apply it using a 100% cotton ball, gently sweeping over face and neck, avoiding eye area and lips and my skin is left perfectly toned and pH balanced, ready to absorb all the goodness of moisturisers and serums. The 150 ml bottle costs £10.49 here and it comes as a spray.

4.Quick Clean® Makeup Remover*
As much as I love putting my makeup on, after a long day I always want to remove it as fast as I can :) That's when wipes and makeup remover pads become my best friend. There is 75 pads in one box. I used 2 to 3 pads to remove my make up so there is enough for a full month. They remove all types of make up, including waterproof mascara, but because my eyes are very sensitive I had to be very careful around the eye area. Unfortunately they irritated my eyes, so I could only use them on my face. The magic ingredients in this product are: moisturising Aloe Vera, Vitamin E and refreshing Cucumber. The price of the box is £7.29 and you can purchase it here.
