My favourite skin care products for 2013...
Another post to add to my "favourites" range is my favourite skin care! I've always been taught that skin care is super important. These products have been amazing for my skin, even saving my red and irritated skin! So here are my favourite skin care products for 2013!
My favourite polishes for 2013...
If you know me, you'd know that I have quite a vast collection of nail polish - I might do a post on it one day cause apparently I have a lot. But anyways, I picked out a few of my favourite nail polishes out of all the ones I have added to my collection this year, and here they are!
Moving on to more bold colours. starting from left to right, I have the shade "Chatroom Rendezvous" by China Glaze, "Avalanche" by China Glaze, "Out of the Blue" by Covergirl, "Blue Tiger" by Australis and "Exposure" by Essie.
I personally think Revlon make great nail polishes. They can be price-y but when you find them on sale, grab one! (I got all my Revlon nail polishes on sale haha). I love this shade as well, its a soft pink-purple colour which looks adorable on.
Starting off with top coat!
I personally think top and base coats are very important when it comes to protecting your natural nail and/or the colour/design on your nails. My favourite top coat has got to be the Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Anti-Chip Top Coat. It dries super fast which is great for people who can't be bothered waiting for nail polish to dry.
The China Glaze ones are both the most recent ones, and I love them! I'm currently wearing "Chatroom Rendezvous" on my toe nails. It's a lovely deep red. "Avalanche" is an amazing holographic/futuristic nail polish that has a tint of purple in it.
"Out of the Blue" by Covergirl is a great colour for spring or autumn/fall - it's not too dark but not too bright either, and "Blue Tiger" by Australis is great for autumn or winter as it's more of a deep blue shade.
"Exposure" by Essie is great for summer or spring, or when you want to add a bright pop of colour to your outfit - it'll definitely catch people's attention! :)
All of these polishes are great and easy to apply. I especially love China Glaze and Essie.
Next we have more pastel colours. I love wearing pastels around spring. So again from left to right I have: "Lilac Pastelle" from Revlon, "Absolutely Shore" by Essie, "To Buy Or Not To Buy" from Essie, and "Riviera Blue" by Mimco.
I personally think Revlon make great nail polishes. They can be price-y but when you find them on sale, grab one! (I got all my Revlon nail polishes on sale haha). I love this shade as well, its a soft pink-purple colour which looks adorable on.
I also love Essie nail polishes, although they can be too thin for some people, I don't really mind it. Essie can also be pretty expensive, so when they're on sale I definitely recommend trying one out. The two shades I have are also great on your nails. "Absolutely Shore" is a faint pastel green which is easy to pair with any outfit, and "To Buy Or Not To Buy" is a pastel purple (more purple than Revlon's Lilac Pastelle). For Essie polishes, I recommend putting on around 3 coats cause they can be quite thin.
And lastly Mimco's "Riviera Blue." I didn't even know Mimco sold polishes until I was gifted one this year. I loveeeee love love this shade! It's like a dull pastel blue, something I'd wear in autumn and possibly spring. This polish also lasts pretty long
I hope this post wasn't too long for you (I'm sorry if it was haha) and I'll see you lovelies in my next post!

Christmas festivities
Merry Christmas everyone! I just wanted to make a quick little post wishing everyone a lovely holiday!Christmas is one of my favourite times of the year, but unfortunately it's raining, like it did last year - oh well!
It's a really family fun, heartwarming movie, check it out if you have time!
Apparently Rupunzel and Flynn Rider from Tangled have a little camo in one of the scenes, I'm not sure if this is true, someone let me know :)
The rest of my day was just full of presents and Krispy Kreme donuts, omg so gooood
Anyways, I'm sorry for such a random post, I just wanted to wish everyone a happy holiday. I hope everyone is having a fun and safe Christmas/holiday with their families. I'll see you guys in my next post! :)
To save ourselves from boredom, my family decided to go to the movies to see the Disney film 'Frozen' (don't judge me Disney is awesome - for all ages :P) I honestly liked this movie! The animation was beautifully stunning, the songs were great and there was some comedy. The movie revolves around two sisters, Anna and Elsa, and even though Anna was the main protagonist, I was rooting for Elsa the whole time, I wished they showed more of Elsa. I don't know why but maybe I relate to her more as a big sister, and her need to protect her younger sister - those feels
Here's the trailer :)
