Tuesday Online Shopping!

I am getting over my flu now and I feel perkier :) I read on Rocketqueen's blog about her new Fyrinnae eyeshadows and how they now ship free if you order over $20, and I have been lusting to try these eye shadows for a while, so I may have gone a bit overboard and placed an order...

I don't know how to put these on but I want them :) I got 11 eye shadow samples and a lip lustre sample. They looks sooo pretty!

I will have to find out how to use these once I get them, so if anyone has any tips, please let me know! :)

This photo is from Fyrinnae's website, this colour is called "Sunrise". Just look at that glow!!

Nail Polish Haul From Sweden :)

I am still very poorly with 'flu (and very deaf from flying) so I I don't feel up for making a big post of all the exciting beauty things I bought/tested in Sweden. But I did get my nail polish haul out from my trip to cheer myself up.



From left to right we have: Isadora "Spellbound Black", "Mulberry Wine", "Sapphire" and "Milkshake"; Rimmel Play Fast "Camoflage" which I got from the lovely Sanna at Makeupmylack :) ; Depend #132; Viva La Diva #71 and #56; L'Oreal Star Magnet "Red" and NARS "Orgasm"

I've yet to try a full "Camoflage" mani but I am dying to try the two new Romantique polishes I have waiting at work for me tomorrow so I will wait until I have tried them to try it :)

I got the NARS limited edition nail polish "Orgasm" for Xmas from my friend Weebie, woohoo!! Its a great nude polish and will looke ace with a tan. She also got me the equally awesome lip lacquer "Hot Wired" from NARS that is pure tropical fuschia; like hot, sexy Miami Beach nights... :)

I can't wait to get better to try all the cool beauty products and clothes I got during my holiday but now I think I will watch Hercule Poirot on the telly and maybe get some sleep!

I'm back! :)

Travelling back to the UK today from Sweden, my xmas holidays have been quite sickly. First I had the winter vomiting bug before xmas, then I got a cold cause I was run down, then 2 days ago I got the flu :( So I am coughing and sneezing and can hardly hear as I travel back. NOT looking forward to the flights, that will kill my ears.. Right now however I am on the train in 1st class, with free coffee and free wireless internet on my laptop :) Lets see how many nail polish blogs I can read before I run out of battery!!

I have a great selection of nail polishes and some makeup to show you tomorrow so check back soon!! :)

NOTD: Isadora "Mulberry Wine" and L'Oreal Star Magnet "Red"

I was disappointed with Isadora's "Spellbound Black" but "Mulberry Wine" is nicer. Still a bit too dark for me but really nice deep wine colour. But it's a PITA to apply, gloopy and bloody impossible to get right. I will have to add a couple of drops of Seche thinner to it and see. I have acquired a bottle of L'Oreals fabled magnetic polish and must say - its better than the expensive Lancome one and comes in six colours :) This is the red one. It applies like a dream and the magnet bottle top is much better thought out than the Lancome one.

Also I would like to share a photo of my ginger bread house I made this Xmas :)

Happy New Year!

Today I have finally managed to get to the internet and I have some exciting NOTD to show, and some disappointments. First is my fave KOnad so far - its China Glaze Turned Up Turquoise with black Konad (which was nicer before I put on the top coat):

Then there is a major disappointment. Isadora "Spellbound Black" looks awesome in the bottle but comes out flat and all black with only a tiny glimmer of teal glitter in strong sunlight :(

Then there is my mums Xmas mani from me - Sparitual "Stiletto" with rhinestones on her thumbs :) It turned out a lot nicer on her than me, and she was very happy with it:

Merry Xmas Everyone!

I am away in my birth country Sweden for 3 weeks so there wont be much blogging as I dont have an internet connection in the holiday house. However I am in my parents flat at the moment so can take the time to share some nail polish stories.

Rimmel Play Fast "Camouflage" - I got this from the lovely Sanna at Makeupmylack :D Tack så mycket Sanna! :) I will be swatching this as soon as I can!

Hot Stuff Collection from Isadora - Got the whole collection "from Santa", was disappointed with Spellbound black, but I am not the only one. It has an awesome aqua shimmer in the bottle which becomes invisible on the nail :( Have two more from the collection to try and hope they are as good as shown in the bottle.

L'Oreal Star Magnets - these are available in my part of Sweden, I have seen them, but the red colour I wanted had sold out :( If I see them again I will buy one anyway and swatch :)

Viva la diva - nowhere can I find the high shine eye shadow palette, but I got two awesome polishes, no 56 and 71 :)

Anyway I must be off - I have to pick up my friend at the train station :D

HAPPY NEW NAIL POLISH YEAR EVERYONE!

NOTD - China Glaze "Emerald Sparkle"

I LOVE EMERALD SPARKLE!

I'm off to Sweden tomorrow for xmas, so I probably won't be blogging as much, but I am hoping for some nice manicures as I am bringing my Konad set and my rhinestones to share with everyone :)

Well it's been 5 mins since I painted my nails (all hail the mighty Poshe top coat!) so I'm off to pack my cowprint suitcase! :) Have a great weekend everyone!
