I don't normally go for gimmicky make-up, and when I was first offered a Gel II™ manicure at the marvellous Hairven hair and beauty emporium in Nottingham, I wasn't especially convinced. Colour changing nail polish? How very 90s! Anyway, with a couple of events coming up I was after...
In recent tradition, I will be celebrating New Year 2015 tonight instead of tomorrow night (never one to follow the crowd, me!), so I thought I'd post my nail look for you to see as I haven't done a nail post for a while. It's a...
Excuse the pun, but I couldn't wait to get my hands on this when I first heard about it. I mean, a gel topcoat that extends the life of your nail polish for up to 10 days with no damage to the nail whatsoever -...
Firstly, I want to apologise for not getting around to posting this year up till now - Christmas, work and life has just got in the way! But I'm back, and promise that this blog is going to be bigger and better in 2015, kicking off...
Christmas always turns up some great beauty products, especially if you're into glamour, glitz and sparkle. And if you're looking for some new make-up in time for New Year, Avon's seasonal offering is definitely worth a look. I recently found myself on the infamous Avon Beauty Bus, once again...

I've got a big Halloween party to go to tomorrow night, and as the attendees are some of London's most extravagant dressers, I wanted my nails to be talking-point fabulous. However, my normally healthy talons have been splitting more than usual recently, so I was a bit worried that...
More unique nail polishes to review today, this time three new shades in L'Oreal Paris's Top Coat Confettis collection. I'm not normally big on overly fussy things, and that includes make-up and nail polish. But actually, over the right base colour, these can and do look pretty cool. Here we have from left...
I'm loving the Bleached Neons nail polishes (£3.99 each) from Maybelline, they're very wearable and less in-your-face than full-on neons. There are four shades in the range, Sun Flare, Coral Heat, Tropink and Chic Chater. I'm wearing Sun Flare on my nails below, a lively pastel shade that reminds me...
Firstly I want to apologise for neglecting you a little bit lately, for the past two months I've been working full-time as an acting editor on a magazine, it's all very exciting but leaves me with little time to blog! When life and work calms down...
