Favourite Summer Nail Polishes!


Now i have finally grown my nails after years of biting them i've become a nail polish addict!

In general i love pastel colours especially pastel blue and pink, so i thought i'd include two blues and a pink!

Barry M Gelly Nail Paint £3.99 -Superdrug     Colour: Sugar Apple

Barry M is my all time favourite nail polish brand. It's products are always amazing and they provide so much variety it takes me an hour just to pick! 

Sugar Apple is a pastel turquoise and looks super pretty especially if you have a tan! If you really like white nails but want a slight change, it totally recommend Sugar Apple.

Barry M Gelly Nail Paint £3.99 -Superdrug    Colour: Dragon Fruit

Drag Fruit is a light pink shade with tiny sparkles in it which give a glossy finish, similar to if you had gel colours at a salon!

Dragon Fruit gives you that girly Barbie-like look without looking tacky. It's such a pretty, feminine colour!

Barry M Gelly Nail Paint £3.99 -Superdrug   Colour: Greenberry

This is a well used favourite of mine, i'm nearly out! 

Greenberry is a bright turquoise which looks amazing when you're on holiday, or going to the beach! It stands out and again looks super good with a tan!

My Favourite Fragrances!


This August i thought i'd share with you two of my favourite scents, a perfume and a body spray.

Passion Struck $14 Vistoria's Secret

My absolute must have body spray is Passion Struck from Victoria's Secret. All of Victoria's Secret's body sprays smell amazing so i would recommend any and i'm pretty positive that they have deals where you can buy 2 or 5 for a certain price!

Passion Struck is created by Fuji Apple and Vanilla Orchid scents. It's a fruity, summery scent which is good for all seasons! And the best part? It lasts ALL day!

Daisy by Marc Jacobs around £40-£50

Whenever i go out for a special occasion like a party, a family meal, or something more formal i love to wear my Daisy perfume by Marc Jacobs. I received this for Christmas and instantly fell in love with the scent! 

I am awful at describing scents so this is what Marc Jacobs describe it as: 

Fresh and feminine, Daisy is a playful bright and alluring scent. Daisy captivates with the luscious freshness of wild strawberry, then blooms with the modern vintage edge of velvety violet petals and finishes with a luminous blend of gardenia and jasmine. The white accords of birch and cedarwood add a bit of intensity.

It's a really feminine and formal scent for any age!

Does It Work: BlowPro Texturising Spray

 BlowPro Texturising Spray £0.70 -Superdrug    GHD Straighteners (really old)

I'm a hater of perfectly pristine hairstyles, i love messy hair with texture! Personally my hair is extremely thick and has a lot of volume naturally but has no real style. I had been on the hunt for a good, affordable texturising spray for a while when i saw this green can reduced to only 70p! 

This amazing spray provides your hair with a fuller, texturised look. I definitely recommend this to people with thin, limp hair!

How To Style:
I normally use my GHDs to give my hair a wavy look. I do this by turning the straighteners one way and then the other to make a wavy/crimped effect.

watch this video to see what i mean:

I then spray in my texturising spray (onto dry hair obviously) and scrunch it to separate the waves and give it a more bed hair/messy look!

I love this look, and maybe you will too? try it out!
