Nails of the Moment

Models Ownin Feeling Blue and Blizzard (I purchased these in my Sunday haul post, look for prices)

Hi kittens! One thing you should know about me is that I am a nail varnish freak. I love nail varnish so much and for someone who is in the pool at least 4 times a week up keeping my nails is a struggle (they just chip in the water automatically) so I am constantly buying new nail varnish trying to find one that works and lasts. My favourite nail varnish at the moment is from Models Own which is a well raved about brand and rightfully it is; the coverage is thick and with the main colours 2 coats is more than enough. Also when I say thick I mean it in the sense that the colour is opaque and covers the nail not that it is really chunky when it dries. Chunky…that’s an odd way to describe nail varnish Hann.

Also you may have noticed that I have freakishly small thumbs; they are so small compared to the rest of my hand that once I was asked if it was harder for me to pick things up. Pfft wasn’t impressed. Anyway back to the nail varnish. I really like this nail colour and on its own it is more than enough for a nice wintery look but I like glitter. This is why about 89% of the time I have a sparkly top coat on; this top coat is also Models Own called Blizzard and I got it in a pack of 3 (for more details go on my previous post, Sunday Haul). I do enjoy using this top coat; it isn’t the best top coat I have ever used but for being a drug store brand and for the price I think it is pretty good. Another bonus is that it only needs one coat to have the desired coverage and it doesn’t have the rough texture that some cheaper topcoats can have so an extra clear top coat is not needed.

Tah dah! That is my nail varnish combination of the moment; I hope you enjoyed it and if you have any questions or recommendations for a nail varnish that can stand a constant existence in chlorine please tell me. PLEAAAASE! Have a good week darlings, speak soon lots of love Hann xxxx

The Shelf

Oh my life exams are killing me. However in the space between reading science books and doing mindless past papers I was able to read a book my mum got about changing your life, one of the key points was too organise your living area. To me my living area is my bedroom which is where I spend about 99.59483% of my time if I am in the house. The area I tried to tackle first was my main make-up and jewellery shelf (it is the second highest shelf on my book shelf) I don’t have a dressing table as I do not have the room, in a future post I will present a picture of my room and you will understand. I rummaged through my cupboards and found a teacup, bead box and a few little tin boxes to put my little jewellery in and I just organised my make-up in to a Ted Baker make-up bag I got for my birthday and all the tubes and bottles were organised into size. 

 

This isn’t all of my make-up and beauty products but in the rush I am in the mornings it is easy for me just to have the essentials and things I use often on my shelf. Other things I do not use as often are in a draw by my desk, just to make my room look tidier. After the struggle of the shelf I am next going to tackle my wardrobe after my exams are done or when I am having a long deserved revision rest.  I have you have found this useful and will organise your living space as well, I know I have only done one part so far but I can already see the benefits.

 

Love Hann xxx
