Pixi by Petra Mattelustre Lipstick - Pure Fuchsia


I'm not much of a lipstick person, I'll be honest. I've always lived by the philosophy that it's either eyes or lips. If I wear both, I look like a drag queen, which is just not the look I'm going for. And I'm way more of an eyeshadow typa gal any way.

The one time I did try to be adventurous and leap out of my comfort zone with both the eyes and lips, I coincidentally ended up in a Gay Bar with a Drag Queen. She quickly pointed me out and asked if I worked in Boots because it looked like I'd tested all the colours on my face.

So, point proven. Advice taken. Nuh.

I've gone through the phases of just wearing very natural make-up and some popping lipstick. Usually I've gone for a red on a nice warm day, and I've really liked it. It's always a confidence thing with me though, so this is few and far between! On this occasion, I've got a 'Pure Fuchsia'* and oh, it's daring.

Chipped Nail Vanish No More with Little Ondine


Little Ondine is a new type of nail polish that definitely goes beyond its core role. It's peelable, natural and completely cruelty free!

I recently went to an event and spoke with Little Ondine*, a new nail vanish company with a twist. With the amount of nail vanishes out there these days, if you're going to enter the ever growing market, you gotta have a little something extra, right? Well, that's just what they've done.

I was lucky enough to get a sample to try, so I thought I'd share my findings with you guys (I'm ever so thoughtful like that)!
