where has the time gone?


umm errrr uhh nevermind that. I have rededicated myself to this blog so expect more contact weekly.

Sunday I went to the awesome Superdrug and picked up a few Barry M nail polishes. I love Barry M. There is a new product out called Barry M Nail Effects 037 it produces a cool , unique crackle effect over polish. The crackle is a matte black but I used Seche Vite top coat over.
What I've used in this look is Gosh Flamingo 569, Barry M Nail Effects and on the ring finger Barry M Pink Iridescent over Gosh Flamingo.

The Nail effects applies well and you only need a thin even coat, it is not recommended to go over areaas as the crackle effect will be comprised. Overall I love the Crackle Effect.

New Misa


September 2010 – Philadelphia, PA. Ladies, put some bling on it!

Whether you’re hitting the clubs in South Beach or sipping martinis in a Manhattan high-rise, you’ll need nails that glimmer as bright as the surrounding lights. Misa Cosmetics’ latest collection, Spark My Interest, pays homage to the glitz and glamour of nightlife and romantic intrigue—because nighttime nails should never fade into the background. The six brilliant hues are saturated with shine, thanks to the thousands of glittering particles packed into each polish, guaranteeing that nails remain the center of attention all summer long.


Winter 2010: Spark My Interest

Date Nights to the Twilight: You may never know what to wear on date night, but this ebullient royal purple will lay the foundation for the perfect look, whether you choose a flirty mini or laid-back denim. Wow him with your glittering personality (and nails!), then party from twilight till morning light!

Red Pumps at the Nordstrom: Self-conscious? Never! Slipping into a pair of red stilettos is instantly empowering for any woman, and this ruby-red sparkle polish will stir up the same sense of instant sexiness and look-at-me self-assurance. Match your favorite siren-red Louboutins with this high-octane shade for confidence that won’t quit.

Spark My Heart, That’s a Start: A glimmer of interest is easy to notice—he can just follow the flashing of your fingernails as you take his hand and lead him to the dance floor. This coral-pink hue lets him know that your heart beats strong, but he still needs to work hard to keep you interested. A bold demand, sure, but this shade is for women who know what they want.

Pink Bling On My Ring: You can’t leave home without the right accessories! A girl’s gotta have jewelry, but this shocking hot-pink glitter hue will vigorously compete with the gemstones that decorate her fingers. Like bejeweled ornaments, nails will shine bright and accent any outfit just right.

Wink, Blink, Let’s Get a Drink: Skip the awkward getting-to-know-you phase and get right to the flirting! This glimmering deep fuchsia will let him know you’re interested from across a crowded room—and will have his eyes glued to you all night as you work your charm. It won’t be long before he leans in and asks, “Another round?”

Lush: Space Girl


I recently made my first Lush purchase and last night, Space Girl took my virginity. It has a light pleasant scent. Allegedly that scent is black currant but I was not able to discern that. The water was turned a light blue and the glitter was not too much. This morning I am still able to detect the aroma on my skin.
I would purchase this again.
I also feel the need to try all of Lush's line. Oh dear this could get pricey lol.

Circle Lens Review








I received my first Circle Lens purchase from Honey Color
I have been dying to try out these lenses since I first heard about them a few weeks ago.


The package arrived in about 2 weeks. It came from Malaysia to me in the UK, on a USAF Base during the whole Dust Cloud Icelandic Volcano Debacle so I am thinking shipping might actually be a little faster for others.The vials were carefully packed and there was no breakage A+
I could not wait to try them on!

First up was the EOS Max Pure Gray. The lens seemed pretty thick in comparison to regular contacts and it was much bigger in diameter. They felt pretty good in, just a moment to get used to the thickness. I really like the way these look on me.


Next up is was the Hyper Circle Black. These were not as thick as the EOS Max Pure Gray but were even larger in Diameter at 15mm. These lenses were a tad uncomfortable. My eyes were watering a lot. Now in their defense; I usually put on my contacts before doing my makeup and since I already had makeup on that may have caused the difficulties with the lens'. I liked the enlargement effect. I didnt like that you can see lots of brown , my eye color through the lens. I will have to try these lenses out again sans makeup.
Not at all a bad purchase. Both pairs of lenses and shipping came to under $60 thats with a prescription. I ordered another pair this afternoon, in Aqua.
