NOTD (nail of the day): Sparkly pastel!

Hello you guys! In my last haul - about a week (or two) back, I believe - I showed you two nailpolishes that I got from Essence. A pastel purple and a sparkly topcoat.
I was very excited to try it out. I used the two colours in combination with each other. First the pastel purple and then the topcoat with glitters. This is what it looked like. I think it is so pretty!

Excuse my ugly nails - stress!

The purple nailpolish covers well with 2 layers. It's easy to apply, I like the brush very much. Same with the glittery topcoat.
The nailpolish dries quite fast. I wanted to let you know how long it lasted, but that experiment got a little bit messed up. You see, the day after doing my nails, I spent three hours doing dishes. Three hours in hot water. Later that day, some of the nailpolish did chip. I can't say that it's a bad nailpolish though, since I know not everyone spends three hours on doing dishes, and so this nailpolish won't chip as fast as it did with me.

Thanks for reading! Have a lovely day!

Little beauty products haul!

Hello all of you! 
Yesterday I did some pre-birthday shopping. It was lovely, I had a great time! These days there's a lot of sales in a lot of shops and I got so many new clothes, I don't even know which item I should wear first! Of course you'll be seeing that in outfit of the day pictures! There are too many items to photograph all of them and put them online (and I can't put them all in one picture like I do with my beauty items). Since beauty items are easy to photograph (and you can put a lot of beauty items in one photograph), I though I'd show you what makeup I got today.


I haven't bought an awful amount of stuff, but I did get a lot of things that I loved and have been fawning over for quite a while.

First of all I got two Catrice intensif' eye wet & dry shadows. These won't be in the stores for much longer (they're going out of the permanent collection) and so I took the chance to get these before it was too late.

Next I got a 2B bronzer, which I'm very excited about, however, I'm probably more excited about my three new lipsticks! I got one from Kate Moss by Rimmel London in "107", which is a darker, berry kind of colour. I've wanted this for quite a while now and it was the last one so I was lucky!

Next I got two lipsticks by Bourjois. One from the Shine collection (first one in the picture) and one from the Rouge edition. They are stunning, wauw! I wish I could have bought more (but I promised myself not to buy too much so, haha!).

The first colour in the picture is called "Famous Fushia", it's a gorgeous, bright pink. The Rouge Edition lipstick is called "Violine Strass". I think it looks a little bit like the one that I got from Kate Moss by Rimmel London. Maybe it's has more of a purple tone to it.

And then I got some new nailpolish. I haven't been doing my nails a lot recently but I missed it! I got two Essence colours, a pastel purple and a glittery topcoat. They fit very nicely together!
