NEW YEAR NAILS

Rimmel London Rita Ora- Lose Your Lingerie
Sally Hansen- Razzle Dazzle

 I don't know if these nails are too sparkly or not? But I thought you could never go too sparkly for the party season?! I am in love with the Rimmel London nail polishes- especially this colour! I wore this so much last year and whenever I wore it I always got so many compliments about it. I have never tried any of Sally Hansen's nail polishes only there nail care and I was really impressed. In one coat it covers your nails with glitter. Both these nail polishes also dry pretty quickly too. There staying power is okay- it probably stays un-chipped for about 3-5 days. 

What's your favourite nail polish?

FOR THE WARMER WINTER DAYS

FOR THE WARMER WINTER DAYS

I am wearing 

Top | Zara Trafaluc

Skirt | Miss Selfridges Petite (not available but here is a similar one)

Shoes | Cocorose

Bag | Longchamp

Necklace | Family friend

This outfit is definitely for the more warmer winter days! I paired a stripy long-sleeved top with a black skater skirt for a casual, effortless look. I popped on some ballet pumps and voila! I ended up putting some tights on though because it was colder than I thought!

I have been in love with Zara recently- I love the way that there are so many different styles to choose from in there! Long-sleeved tops are going to be my go-to when it comes to spring. You can wear them when its not cold another for a full on fluffy coat but too cold to just wear a short sleeved t-shirt. 

Hope you liked my first outfit post and I hope you enjoyed reading this as much as I liked putting it all together. Happy New Year!

Pretty Pink Paint



All products are available at Boots

(Above: 2-coats)

Recently I have been on the hunt for a nudish/pinkish nail paint and after starting a bit of a collection I thought I would show you.

My favourite has to be the Rimmel London Rita Ora Nail Polish as it applies really easily and quickly. I have always been a big fan of the Rimmel London 60 Secs collection- there is such a good range of colours too! I wouldn't say that it drys in 60 seconds but whenever I where it I always get lots of compliments. It has the tiniest shimmer in it too. For more shimmer I tend to opt for etheral. It is basically the same just with more shimmer and sparkle!

Another of my favourites is the Barry M Nail Paint (Aquarium). I love this range because it looks like you have spent way more time on your nails then you actually have. Over the summer I was wearing this none stop, especially when I went on holiday. It looks so cool when you are in the sea or just chilling on the beach. I also love that Barry M have so many different ranges; matte, gelly, silk..... (the list goes on) and whenever I go into boots there always seems to be a different colour or a different collection. It applies easily, goes opaque in one coat and is so glittery! That said, the nude shade didn't rock my boat. It didn't go opaque and when it dried lots of air bubbles started building up in it but I suppose not everything is perfect! I was really disappointed with the Models Own one as well. It was very similar to the Barry M nude as it was very 'gluppy' and transparent. Hay ho!

Primer Perfection?

Hello! This drugstore primer proves a lot of things! It claims that it smooths, resurfaces, brightens, mattifies and protects your skin so I was so excited to try this out. It is okay but I suppose for  £6.99 it's great. This primer keeps my make-up on my face all day. Surprisingly, i didn't think it made my make-up apply more easily though. After applying the Rimmel London Fix and Perfect Pro Primer it left a 'oilyness' on my fingers however it does help matiffy your face throughout the day(even though I wouldn't risk just using this and no powder). Like I said, it does not feel oily on your face and leaves your skin feeling quite moisturised and smooth. However, I felt, this product didn't make my pores less visible. Even though I don't think I will repurchase this product again, it defiantly wasn't bad and didn't make me break out. 

What is your perfect primer? 

My Hair Care Heros

Hello! A few years ago I never went to the hairdressers and my hair became very very thin at the ends, so I decided that I would brave a trip to the hairdressers! After getting it cut my hairdresser recommended these products to keep my hair in good condition. And they have literally saved my hair!

The first hero is the Nioxin Hair Cleanser. This smells c]kinda minty and really refreshing. It completely cleanses my hair and you only have to use a tiny bit.

The best of the best hero is the Nioxin Scalp Revitaliser. You massage this into wet hair from root to end, like the shampoo and you only have to use a tiny amount. This basically makes your hair stronger from the roots, meaning by the time your roots, now, are your ends they will be super strong. Does that even make sense? Anyway, this has made my hair shiner, thicker and healthier! It's incredible! This with the cleanser works insane together.

The last hero in the triplet is the Nioxin Scalp Treatment. I only put this on my hair probably twice a month, or if my hair is feeling a bit dull. This also works by strengthen your hair at the roots. I am not to sure on the smell- it's like a smoky scent (a bit like a muscle relief cream?) The smell doesn't stay though and goes within a few hours. I just spray this into my roots around my scalp and massage it in.

Tah-rah! What hair product can you not live without? ❄

The Beauty Blogger Tag

Hello! I was thinking of doing the tmi tag but when the lovely Little Miss Wallflower nominated me to do the beauty blogger tag I thought I would do that instead as a mid-week post. 

1- Is your hair naturally curly or straight? | To be honest with you I have no clue what my hair is. One minute I wake up and its gone really curly and other times wavy and then straight. It's very confusing!

2- Do you dye it yourself or go to the salon? | Neither, I have never dyed my hair and I don't want to. 

3- Do you wear the same style every day or change it? | This is meaning hair styles, right? Hmm.. when I was younger I used to do loads of cool stuff with my hair but now its either in a pony tail, bun or mostly just naturally down. When its down I either pin my hair a quarter up or just pin a bit to the side- that is if I have time! 

4- Do you do your own manicure/pedicure or at a salon? | I can't even remember the last time I had a manicure and I have never had a pedicure either! I just stick with basic block colour which I do myself. If I was to have a manicure I thought get it done at a salon.

5- How often do you change your nail polish? | I go to a school which doesn't allow nail polish. During the summer holidays though it completely varies, it depends on how bothered i can change it and how much time i have.

6- Do you polish your toe nails in the winter or just in the summer? | Just summer but if I am going to a special occasion or a holiday in the winter than I will paint them. 

7- How long does it take to do your makeup? | No longer than 10-12 minutes. 

8- What do you do first? Face or eyes? | Face. Well, you may know, from the post I did about my current make-up that I like to avoid my eyes because they are so sensitive! For special occasions or days when my eyes aren't that sensitive though I would put some eyeshadow, eyeliner and mascara on! 

9- Do you collect makeup or just buy what you need? | I have started a collection. But if I had to decide between something I needed and something I wanted for my collection then I would always buy the need thing first! Duhr! 

10-  How often do you wear false lashes? | Never, I would like to try lash extensions though one day. 

11- Do you where a full face of make-up everyday? | Does anyone? 

12- Do you where makeup when you are home alone or with family? | I don't where makeup if I am home alone or with my family at home. I do wear makeup when meeting extended family or just going out with my family. 

13- Will you leave the house without makeup? | No 

14- How many high-end make-up products do you have? | Umm.. I don't know? It would take many days to tidy through my 'beauty draw'. I am only 15 so I won't have a massive amount! 

15- Do you plan your OOTD the night before or while you are getting dressed? | If I am going to a big occasion or going on holiday than I do but for a normal day I just decide while I am getting dressed. For school days I have to wear uniform. 

16- How often do you change your handbag? | It varies but at the moment I have just purchased an expensive longchamp back pack so I will be sticking with that for a while! I love it!! 

17- What time do you wake up and go to sleep? | School- I would like to say i go to bed at 10pm but probably 11pm. My alarm is set for 6:40pm. No school or outing- 11:30pm and 9-11am. 

18- How often or when do you work out? | Umm.. I hike with my family a lot and sometimes play a bit of badminton/tennis/ping-pong in the garden and in our village. I don't have a set timetable! Oops! 

19- Left or right handed? | Right

20- How tall are you? |5ft 3

21- Do you speak any foreign languages? | I can not speak any language fluently but I can speak French and a bit of Spanish, Swedish and Welsh. 

22- How many pets do you have? | None, and never have. I would love guinea pigs or hens! 

23- How often are you on blogger? | Well I am obviously on either Saturday/Sunday or Wednesday because I publish my posts then and nearly always write them then as well. I check comments, e-mails and bloglovin' everyday on my phone. 

24- Do you read comments on blogs? | On my blog I read every single comment. On others I sometimes do or normally I would just scan through them.

25- Do you keep a list of products to try as you see other posts? | A mental note but if I know I won't be going shopping soon I will write it on my phone or in my note book. 

26- How did you come up with your blog name? | I was thinking of pollywood or pollgu but decided to go for pollywally because it rhymed, it was easy to remember and it was fun. 

27- What camera do you use for your photographs? | FinePixe J12

28- Do you have a phone? | Yes, iPhone 5

29- How often do you clean your house? | I clean my bedroom every week and our cleaner does most of the house.
