Instagramming #2!

So here is another instagram post. I feel a little guilty doing a post like this because it’s not exactly interesting, but it kind of sums up what I have been up to since my last instagram post.

Finally went to see Wicked the musical and it is an absolutely must see! If you haven’t already, GO! I urge you!!

The Olympics came to an end yesterday, but I got to see the torch when it was going through my area. LOVE LONDON AND LOVE GB! Those Olympians and Para Olympians have made us ALL proud I feel!

For the August bank holiday I went away with my besties for Aasha’s birthday celebrations, 4 days of being together, was amazing and full of funny moments, especially playing Articulate after a few glasses of wine!

I should really show you all what my calendar has been like for the past 2 months, packed just isn’t the word, but I love being busy. Now everything has slowed down slightly but I know at the end of this month it will pick up again with the engagement celebration for Nayna, I just hope that I don’t neglect blogging.

Polish Post 5!

Howdy all! The weather is just weird at the moment isn’t it?! But for the better I must say, a little bit of sun shine before the coolness of autumn/winter kicks in.

Just a quick post today; wanted to share with you guys the Inglot polish I got in this haul.

Inglot Polish in '969'

It’s a nice mint green, perfect in my eyes. I had been looking for a lovely mint green for a while to suit my skin tone and love this colour! You do need to apply about three coats of this polish because it is quite thin in consistency.

Hope you all have a lovely weekend!!

Four Fav MAC shadows!

Hello my lovelies!! How are you all??? I’m glad to say that I’m back to blogging, my life has been a little hectic and honestly I feel like I was lacking inspiration for blog posts, but I’m happy to say that I’m back at it and hopefully I can stick to a rhythm of posting regularly.

So for this post I would like to share with you my favourite four MAC shadows. They are the shadows that I reach for when all I want it a quick wash of colour over the eyes, as well as when I want to spend a bit more on my eye look.

So, starting from the top left hand corner going clockwise is Romp (frost finish). This is a rustic gold colour, but I think it's a bit smoother and more pigmented than other frost finish eyeshadows I have. It’s so easy to wear, put this all over your lid with lots of mascara and you’re ready to go.

Next is All That Glitters, this is a blogger favourite and I have to agree with them. I wouldn’t necessarily put it all over my lid but definitely in the inner corner and the first half of the eye, then I would put a purple or maroon on the outer corner. The shimmer is amazing. If you’re a paler person that you can definitely wear this all over your lid. I would describe the colour as a silver pale pink (veluxe pearl finish).

My next favourite is Paradisco (frost finish). I would describe this as a pink with gold flecks. If your eyes need waking up use this all over the lid or in the first half with something deeper in the outer corner and you’re ready to go. You may need a base with this colour if you want better pay off, like a primer potion or pencil.

Last but not least is my very first MAC shadow Tempting (lustre finish). I used to have problems with this shadow when I first bought it, but now I lurrvee it. It is a lustre, which means its got chunks of glitter in it, but if you just keep building the colour the pay off is lovely. I feel as though it’s a duo-chrome shadow, when looking at it, it looks like an antique gold, but actually in different lights is comes out as a dark brown which is perfect if you just want to wear one shadow and be out of the door.

Top-Bottom: All that glitters, Paradisco, Romp, Tempting

Well, there you have it, when looking at them in the pan it looks like I’ve only really picked two colours but they all give off different finishes.

What are your favourite MAC Shadows? Do you have any of these? Would you like to see me using them in a post? Glad to be back!!
