easy ombre nails at home

A few weeks back on a rainy Sunday I wanted to do something different with my nails, I love anything ombre so I hopped on google and was surprised to learn how quick and easy they are to do!

I went for a messier look then the tutorial showed but I still think they look so pretty and I had some lovely compliments on them - win! I would love to know if any of you have tried ombre nails out and what colours you like to blend.

Here’s the tutorial I used: http://www.glamour.com/beauty/blogs/girls-in-the-beauty-department/2012/05/gradient-nails-picture-tutoria.html

rimmel stay matte liquid mousse foundation.

100 Ivory | £5.99

Has my long and expensive search for my dream foundation stopped?! YES! :o

Quite simply if you are in need of an affordable full coverage foundation that will last up to nine hours without any touch ups, then this is the one for you.  With it's very thick consistently many might be put off thinking it will look like a mask on the skin but it blends in like a dream and after a week of testing it out I can now say we are officially best friends. I could not recommend this foundation highly enough to all skin types that want to cover up redness, blemishes and uneven skin tone. 

It has made it into my daily make up and won't be leaving any time soon.

Now that baby lips have hit the UK I couldn't resist picking up a couple to try out. The packaging is cute, the price is very affordable and they smell good enough to eat and they do the job of keeping your lips moisturised.

My favourite is Mint Fresh, it has not left my lips since I bought it!
