Another Nude

 Barry M "Nude"
 
 I have a new favourite nude nail polish. Compared to my GOSH one this is more of a neutral nude rather than biege toned. It needs a few coats for it to actually have an effect but I love the finish. It reminds of acrylic nails before they put the polish on. I wore it on my false nails which are a natural colour and combined with this it made them look even more natural. This is a great everyday polish if you don't like bold colours. I underestimated this one. I want to attempt coffin shaped nails but I'm still learning how to shape them.

A Little Missguided

Bomber Jacket - Missguided | Bodysuit - Primark | Jeans - "Joni" Topshop | Converse - Office

This jacket is a masterpiece in itself. The print is mirrored in such beautiful colours and the jacket itself is a scuba material. I feel like I'm wearing somebodys art work. I saw Sarah Ashcroft wearing it in her recent YouTube video and I fell in love instantly. I had to have it. So imagine how happy I was when I found out Missguided had a discount code for 50% off selected items and this was one! £29.99 to £14.99. They were basically encouraging me. I ordered it Monday morning and it arrived two days later much to my delight. I wanted a nice bomber jacket I can wear out and to uni, this one is perfect and I just might live in it. This is probably how I would style it for uni or casually, I also styled it on my polyvore account (day 'n' night).
 
My laptop is being a bum so I haven't been able to get pictures from my camera to blog. When my student loan comes in, a macbook is definitely on the agenda as well as a new camera. A 600d or 700d, I need that flip screen in my life, so necessary *JayZ voice*.

D A I S I E S

Products used: Miss Sporty Black Nail Polish, Rio Yellow & White Nail Art Polishes and Dotting tool.

Daisies seem to be a big thing right now. I keep seeing them on a lot of clothing and that reminded me of this nail art that I saw a while ago and have been wanting to try for ages. I think it went okay for a first attempt, even though it smudged a little. I'm not a fan of black nails so I didn't do it on my own nails instead I used my nail display wheel.

I painted the nail black first, took about 3 coats to get it thick enough, then i poured a little of the yellow and white polish into a pot (seperated) and used the dotting tool to make the circles. I've had dotting tools for a while now, I got 5 for 99p from eBay and they actually work really well, you just dip them into the polish and simply make dots.

Product Spotlight: Olive Oil Heat Protector

ORS Olive Oil Heat Protection Hair Serum

I'm not usually one to share hair products on my blog mainly because there aren't that many that I use but I have been looking to get this product for ages and after finally purchasing it, it will forever be in my life.
A long while back, I asked a girl that I followed on tumblr (can't find her page anymore), who had the loveliest long hair, for some tips on how she kept her hair in good condition and this is a product she recommended to me. Now, I never use heat protectors which is bad but I am glad I got round to purchasing this. I used it in my hair yesterday when straightening it and I seriously don't know what I was doing without it before. It straightened my hair so much nicer and left it feeling soft and moisturised. I'm trying to use heat protecter now because I want my hair to grow a bit more before I cut the ends. This product I highly recommend for girls with afro type hair as it is quite oily. It smells like olive oil and only cost me £3.99 which is worth it for how it leaves my hair afterwards.
