Luxe Volume Extravagance mascara by Avon...

Black, lavish lashes with excess, high-impact volume. With fibres to create                                                              voluptuous lash volume.                                                Contains Black Diamond Powder. Flake-proof.

After years of being disappointed by Avon's mascaras I really enjoyed the last one I tried by them, so I naturally had to try one that boasted about using black diamond powder. What, if anything, does diamond powder do for lashes?

Lets find out...

NOTD: Comet In The Sky by OPI over Happy Go Lucky by China Glaze...

I'm not a yellow polish wearer normally, but I recently got a bottle of China Glaze Happy Go Lucky and have been trying out different toppers with it, as it's such a different look for me that I feel better layering it.
Today I want to share one of my favourite combinations I've found using this shade so far - and I think the topper I used is going to be a future collectable polish, so read on and then grab it while you can...

First glance: Starlight holiday 2015 nail collection by OPI...

If the China Glaze Halloween collection is my favourite yearly nail polish release, then OPI's Christmas range is a very close second - they always have highly wearable shades in consistently good formulas.

Everything2k.com has scored photos of the upcoming store displays AND gift sets for the Starlight Holiday 2015 collection, so prepare to feast your eyes...

First glance: 'Ghouls Night Out' Halloween 2015 Collection by China Glaze...

 

It's time for the first glance at what has always turned out to be my favourite nail polish collection of the year since 2010; Chicprofile.com has scored the first photos of the Halloween 2015 collection by China Glaze, so we can now get a sneak peek at the new polishes.

Does it look like their Halloween collection will be my annual favourite for another year, or has their run come to an end?

Bronzilla (012) bronzer by Revlon...

As I previously mentioned, Revlon makes my favourite foundations (Photoready & Nearly Naked). In addition to that I also love their Photoready primer, their Nearly Naked pressed powder, their Gel Envy Diamond topcoat, and their crayon lipstick/balm/stains. 

I felt that it was time for me to branch out in their brand a bit and see how some of their other products work for me, which is what brings me to this post...

Yep: I'm being adventurous and trying out a bronzer. As well as going for a all-over glow, I've been trying out my limited contouring skills.

Will Revlon's bronzer impress me more than their eyeshadows and mascara did?

The new sexy/fresh/clean: Eau De Glow edt by Jennifer Lopez...

Today we're looking at the second of the newer Glow fragrances I bought a little while ago; this one is the flanker that I was really keen to try since ever since I first heard about it's launch. Eau De Glow was released back in spring 2012, but it only became available on UK sites for Brits to be able to buy within the past year. I've not seen it in any physical UK stores, so buying it online is our only option.

Eau De Glow is a updated version of the original Glow Perfume from 2002 - the debut fragrance by singer/actress Jennifer Lopez. It is described by Coty as being "dedicated to and inspired by spring flowers, which spread an aura of delicate freshness, refinement and sophistication".

I'm a bit bored of Jennifer's Glow offerings now, so how well will this edition of Glow fare? Will it manage to live up to my three years worth of expectations?

Party on with Rio Glow edt by Jennifer Lopez...

Since I tried Wild Glow, and rediscovered Miami Glow in the new year, I had a closer look at the other releases in Jennifer Lopez's Glow collection. Therefore today is my first of two reviews for two of her newer Glow flankers.

Rio Glow was first released in summer 2013 in 100ml bottles exclusively in Brazil, but has now spread to American stores - and UK shopping sites.

Coty describes Rio Glow as a "bright fruity/floral that projects the passion, enjoyment and positivity that symbolize Brazil".

NOTD: Life Preserver by China Glaze...

Life Preserver is originally from the Anchor's Away spring 2011 collection, and it was added to the China Glaze core line.

China Glaze retired a bunch of shades at the beginning of the year (Unfortunately I can't find the Instagram post I read with all the names on to share on the blog), and I remember that Life Preserver was on the list of doom. So I wanted to let it enjoy the spotlight now, as at the minute it is still widely available for as little as £4 - but when it's gone, it's gone.
