Thursdays Things.

Its nearly here!!! Bloody love Halloween I do!!! Made two pumpkins for my mums nursery tonight.


Added some fiber optic lights to my bouquet! :)

Did my nails (with some poundshop nail art and the Leighton Denny nail varnish from the Last GlossyBox I got.)
Then I wished I could wear heels! these would be perfect for my costume!!! DAMN YOU NEW LOOK!!!!

CHECK OUT THESE BAD BOYS!!! :D



These 2 nail looks look like 2 different colours right? wrong! as you can see below, they are 2 tone colours, emerald green and a antique looking gold, as you can see in the pics below (taken before I cleaned up the edges!) in different lights it shows different colours and as you can see from the top picture, the flakes are so small and glittery it makes the glitter look so deep.



















Now for the next surprise.....its not actually nail varnish!

A friend of mine paints little Warhammer models and he was showing me some of the paint effects he uses and I couldn't help thinking they would look fab on nails!!! Now...I'm not sure what they will do to your nails so I'm not planning on keeping them on long as I think its the same stuff the use to paint cars (don't worry...he sprayed them over 3 existing layers of varnish and top coat so it shouldn't do any damage) and its not entirly practical as not everyone has their own air brush at home, but wow! they look so amazing, I cant explain (or take good enough picture to show them) but I cant help but smile when I look at them!!!

Makes you wonder how hard it is to make this effect in nail varnish though!!!

October Glossybox and this weeks Graze!

Of the 2 boxes, the cheapest appeals to me more! 


Looking forward to indulging in this at work til the next one comes on Wednesday!! :)

The other package that arrived today was a little less exciting, maybe it a let down after the fab stuff in my feel unique box, but the new Glossybox didn't fill me with much joy. The nail varnish is a lovely colour, but I haven't tried it and I have to admit that I've never heard of it before, though the name seems strangely familiar. Not impressed by the eyeliner that claims to have real staying power, yet rubbed straight off my hand leaving nothing but a slight bit of glitter.


I've had Dermalogica before and I have paid £30 for a full sized product so I am interested to see what they are like, but I'm not keen on 3 products from one company and the make up bag just seems cheap. I certainly wasn't impressed with the 3 fragrances, especially after having one last month (which was rather lovely, but none of these 3 really appeal). 


I have to admit I was really hoping that Glossybox would recover from their bad PR after box 2 and box 3 certainly had one or 2 nice items (the HD Brows making it worth it), but this is a bit of a disappointment really. I am considering cancelling and sticking with the Feel Unique box until I find something to rival it.

MAC's Drag act!?!

Is anyone else thinking that the new MAC adverts are terrifying????


Thats hellascary!!!!

My first Feel Unique Beauty Box has arrived!

Thought I'd share some pics before I give a review of the products in side! :)







Glasgee Thistle Hotel

Went to Glasgow with work this week, stayed in the Thistle Hotel, nice room, shame about the food.
Had a nice big room, the bed was huge and I didn't wanna leave it! I've missed breakfast everyday just to lie in it longer! lol
Pretty lighting in the foyer.
The food looked really nice and was always really well presented but was very expensive and really not worth it. I'd had better food in McDonalds and I don't really like McDonalds! Had to share  lil pic just for the way the chips were presented! (sorry about the pic quality, didn't want the flash to go off in the restaurant! lol)
I did have to share some of the art work on the walls though, fab art deco pictures all down the staircase!
