One of my favourite blogs - BeautyGeeks - has scored photos of the new Halloween nail polish set by OPI, so as I love Halloween I wanted to share one of their pics for it.


Was the wait for info on this year's collection worth it, or have China Glaze beaten them once again?

NOTD: Where's My Blanket? by OPI, over Snowcone by Orly...

Do you have a fail-safe polish that you continuously reach for when you're not sure what look to go for? You can learn a bit more about mine below...

China Glaze swatch wheel: Ghouls Night Out Halloween 2015 collection...


A few American sites have started to receive stock of the new China Glaze Halloween collection, so hope the UK won't be too far behind. I'm also searching eBay, in case any US sellers have added the collection to their stores - not that I'm obsessed or anything.
In the meantime I came across this photo of a swatch wheel and wanted to wet people's appetites with it, as this year's collection looks flipping fantastic. So read on to see what will be on offer this year...

First glance: Cheers Holiday 2015 collection by China Glaze...

Image result for china glaze logoWe're going a different way around for today's first glance at a major nail polish companies Christmas 2015 collection; I've found a photo of China Glaze's new Cheers Holiday 2015 line, but no other information, or store display images. I thought the swatches would be what most people want to see anyway, so I'm going to click publish on this short post, then do a proper one further down the line.

So for now, just feast your eyes on the pretties below...

NOTD: To Be Or Not To Beagle by OPI, over Rose Among Thorns by China Glaze...


Hello summer!!!

I'm getting into neon polishes for the first time ever, so whilst the sun is out I want to share one of the best formulated ones that I've found so far. I also love a black glitter, so whilst I'm spotlighting the neon I'm also going to top it with one if my newer glitter purchases...

Feeling the Rush? Heat Rush EDT by Beyonce...


"Beyonce Heat Rush shines, sparkles and excites the moment it touches the skin. Surrounded by a luminous fragrant aura, the woman who wears it feels instantly effervescent and alive. Sensual and bright, the scent lights up a room just as Beyonce captivates with her presence" 
The sun is finally out (sometimes) so let's follow on my last post's theme by having a look at a older summery Heat fragrance from Coty/Beyonce...

New fragrance: Heat Kissed edp by Beyonce..

"When a moment of attraction becomes undeniable, it ignites a spark between two people that draws them closer. Their lips meet and the flicker becomes a flame. Beyoncé Heat Kissed captures this sensual intensity in a bottle."
This month sees the launch of Heat Kissed, the new fragrance from the Heat collection of fragrances by Coty and Beyonce. The lush composition begins with exotic fruity notes of litchi, mango and pitahaya. Its rich heart includes Red Fury orchid, Sambac jasmine and Moroccan rose oil. Exotic woody notes of African sandalwood and patchouli are combined with vanilla infusion to create a warm and inviting base.


Are they dupes? Avon Mineral Crush in Rose Quartz (aka Stardust inCrystallised Rose) vs Illamasqua Trilliant ...

I recently bought Illamasqua Star Burst polish in the shade Trilliant, and felt all smug at finding a £15 polish for £3.99 (I found my bottle in TK Maxx). However my smugness would soon turn to sheepishness when I was rummaging though my stash and saw this...


Yeah - looking at the polishes in the bottles I'd call them dupes, but do they swatch similarly?
