Natural collection nail polish in antique coral

Now you may have or may not have noticed i'm somewhat of a nail polish fiend.  In fact i do change my nails at least once a week.  while i was in boots a couple of weeks ago (looking for an eyebrow pencil - didn't get one :( ) i saw the natural collection stand.  Now call me snobby but i don't normally go for this stand (but i do like the eyeshadow i got there ages ago)


Looks less pink in real life - way to go camera!!!

This nail polish says it coral but myself and everyone i asked have said it looks like a pinky orange.  When applying it used 3 coats.  On the first coat there is very noticeable shimmer but by the third coat it had become almost invisible which was a shame as the shimmer looked great

On the whole i think this is a lovely nail polish for less than £2.  Give it a go!!!

Natural collection eyeshadow


This brand is exclusively available at boots and the eye shadows retails for £1.79 each.  I only have one - milk chocolate.  The packaging looks as cheap as it cost but then who am I to complain? I like to wear this mainly for school so it looks like I at least made an effort (but not like the others who like to slaver on the fake tan and use a pan of blush a week) this is a nice but slightly lighter version of buck (my all-time favourite eye shadow form the UD naked palette).  It is decently pigmented and I don’t remember to wear a primer half the time at 7.30 in the morning so it does fade during the day.
On the whole it is a good pigmented eye shadow for less than £2 - what’s not to like?

Too faced natural eye palette




I got this palette a little while ago when I decided to get a nice natural eye palette as thoses are the colours i'm drawn to so i got the too faced natural eye palette .


Pros.........
Non-creasing eye shadows, variety of matte and shimmer eye shadows, pigmentation, cards that are included.
Cons............
Unnecessary packaging, brush, no- mirror.

The packaging..........................
U-D; Heaven, velvet revolver, sexpresso
It’s bulky and big and totally unnecessary. What about saving the planet too faced? Although it is undoubtedly stunning i would have been happier with a slimmer pallete like my urban decay naked palette. And the drawer which is home to that brush should have been cut from the final design as i see no need for it. The brush is basically a dual end brush (a stiff liner and sponge) i wanted to like it but i just couldn’t. It also doesn't have a mirror just a stupid big eye.


L-R; Nude beach, honey pot , cocoa puff
The palette...............
U-D; silk teddy, push up,erotica
The 9 eye shadows are AMAZING, honestly they were pigmented, buttery smooth and they will last for ages. Your 3 main colours are heaven, silk teddy and nude beach and they are a lot bigger than the other 6. My favourite eye shadows would be push up and honey pot.
At £23.00, each eye shadow only costs £2.55, its excellent value!!!!

Would i buy again........?
Yeah, if i ever need to. I’ve had it for ages and it hasn't even got a dip yet!!!
