Beauty Product Reviews

I didn't like them as much as I would have liked to.

Let me just start this off by saying that the ideal for me would be to go to a salon and have my nails done by a pro but since I’m still working on potty training Valia (aka I’m still changing diapers), it’s not practical.

Anyhow, I bought a couple of nail polish from E.L.F the other and while I loved the price (I bought them for 1GBP), I feel that their quality is a bit meh. The nail polish is too runny and chips after a day even when I do a base coat (I use Sally Hansen double duty which can be used as a base coat and a top coat). On the plus side, the colours are fantastic! I especially loved Fire Coral. It’s an amazing colour for summer.

I think this nail polish deserves three stars. I think that if I could recommend something which is at that price range and has good quality (considering the price), I would recommend Essence. They are cheap and the nail polish lasts for ages.

Great lipsticks!

I have this lipstick in liqueur, cherry and vixen and I love them all! I love that they are creamy and that they are super-pigmented. I know that for some this may be irrelevant, but each lipstick comes in it's own box and they have good quality packaging. Having said that however, the lipsticks are a little bit on the small side so it can be a little uncomfortable to put on. For them to last long, I put on a coat of lipstick, blot with a tissue, put another coat and finish off with Lipcote because the lipsticks by themselves are not incredibly long-lasting however, these are things I can live with considering the price!

All in all, I love these lipsticks and I look forward to buy some more! :)
