New Beauty Bits

As I got paid on Friday (finally  - it felt like I'd been waiting forever) I took a trip to the shops to treat myself. I have been reading so many blog posts lately (procrastinating whilst I should be revising - oops) and saw so many things that I knew I had to have my hands on. However, I'm saving for my holiday and need to buy new summery clothes to go away so had to limit myself.

Superdrug had their 3 for 2 across all beauty products offer on, so how could I turn it down. So I picked up 3 items from the makeup section and the tan I use was half price so it was a must have, although I have so many bottles already, I will never stop using tan.

Also in advance, sorry for poor quality photos, they've been taken on my iPhone as I have limited time at the moment to write up blog posts.

 

 

 

 

Rimmel Stay Matte Long Lasting Pressed Powder

As I've been needing a new powder for so long I thought I'd give this one a try as I've been loving Rimmel products lately. I bought this in the lightest shade '01 - transparent' as I never like my powders being dark and do only use minimal of this so my skin doesn't look oily and shiny. I haven't tried this one yet, but will most likely do a review at some point

 

Barry M Gelly Nail Paint in Huckleberry

This is a much loved nail paint for bloggers this spring as it is a lovely pastel blue colour from Barry M's spring range. I originally wanted the pale pink 'Rose Hip' but they were unfortunately sold out, so I went for this one instead. I have a massive Barry M nail paint collection already and this will add nicely to it (I will do a blog post on this collection). I have used this and it's already on my nails, and I absolutely love it, such a perfect colour for the spring/summer.

 

Rimmel Lasting Finish Colour Rush in Rumour Has It

I was never really a fan on wearing bright lip colours, but recently I've started wearing lipsticks more often. This colour balm is similar to the shape of a crayon and goes on smoothly and lasts a long time, mines is in the shade "Rumour Has It - 220" and I love it. I have tried this out already when going out on Friday night and I love it, it doesn't leave your lips dry at all and stayed on for the entire night, I'd definitely recommend this one and I plan on purchasing more in different colours.

 

Solait Tinted Bronzing Lotion in Medium/Dark

I have previously done a blog post about this tan(here) raving about how much I love it, so won't go into detail about it. But I still adore this tan, and use it all the time and have yet to experience streaks etc with it.

O.P.I 'Glitter' Nail Varnish Remover

I used to wear glitter nail varnish all the time, not as much anymore but still quite regularly. However, the biggest problem is getting it off. It is an absolute nightmare!!! Like wearing them would not be as bad if it was as simple to get off like normal nail varnish.

Then I came across what was named 'O.P.I Glitter Nail Varnish Remover' on ASOS and I thought my life was complete. I remember seeing it for £6 and thinking it was such a bargain, but now thinking about it £6 for nail varnish remover is kind of a joke. The actual name for it is O.P.I Expert Touch Nail Polish Remover for Glitter Nail Varnish. I have many O.P.I nail varnishes already, especially the Kardashian Kolor collection - being a big Kardashian fan - so thought it would be amazing.

After giving it a try I still do not know my final opinion on it. As when removing glitter nail varnish with this remover on cotton wool, it makes the cotton wool stick to your nail and then you can peel it off easily. However, I am unsure whether this is what it is meant to do or not. So if this is the purpose of it then I'd highly recommend it as it is a quicker method of getting glitter nail varnish off, as with other nail varnish removers I know I'm there forever trying to get it off.

I do only use this when taking off glitter nail varnish, as I use a cheaper alternative remover for normal varnishes.
