NAILED IT: MAX FACTOR MINIS

Today's post is going to be my first nail of the day post!




On my nails in the past couple of days I've been wearing to of the Max Factor Mini's in Pretty in Pink and on my ring finger Chilled Lilac as my accent colour.


Pretty in Pink isn't really a pink colour, well at least pink isn't the first colour i think of when i see it.  Pretty in Pink is a really pretty, pastel, coral leaning on the more of orange end of the spectrum.



Chilled Lilac is a very pretty pastel lilac colour. This is the first pastel lilac that i have bought before and i have to say that i really like it a lot.


The formula, it self of these polishes is very thin i had to apply about 3 to 5 coats on each nail to get a truly opaque colour. On that note I don't mind to much as the overall finish i think is worth doing that extra coats. I have had the polish on now for over a week and i have just minor chipping! The staying power of these polishes is just incredible! I don't really ever use a base coat but i always use the same top coat ( ProStrong base and top coat - just in case you were wondering)!I have to say the actual formula of polish is the best i have EVER tried!



I am defiantly going to be purchasing more from this line. The line has a total of 34 colours in there collection. I would love to get the fantasy fire one as Fleur (from FleurDeForce who you probably already know!) did a review on it and it looked great!

The bottle is tiny, but I like that because i have never been able to use up a whole bottle of nail varnish before. For one bottle of nail varnish you are £3.99 but when i bought my three bottles i got it on three for two so i recommend checking out your local boots for that!

Overall I really like this polish, super staying quality but not very opaque, for this price though i think they are worth it!

Bye for now!

Get To Know Me!!!

Hi Guys! I thought that for my first blog post i should tell you a little bit about myself!

I am a 13 year old girl, from the North of Scotland. I have always liked cosmetics and beauty in general but my obsession seams to be growing day by day! My collection is quite small but is more than the average girl of my age at my school (most of my friends only have a small sized makeup bag with products that they don't wear on a regular basis)!

Apart  from beauty i have a couple of other hobbies that i love! I am a free and ice dance skater (which means i do jumps, spins and all of the dances - rhythm blues, foxtrot etc...) I am level 2 for all of my free including field moves and 1 for my dance (just in case any of you were wondering or are figure skaters!). I also play the acoustic guitar and am on level 2 for that also.

I have glasses which i am growing to like. I like to read but i have to really get hooked on the book within the first couple of chapters or else i probably won't finish it! I am an avid Corrie fan (in fact i am watching it whilst typing this)! It's not just a little obsession it's HUGE. I will wake up an hour earlier before i normally would to go to school so i can watch the last couple of episodes! Mrs Brown's Boys and Don't tell the bride are also strong favourites of mine!. I am also into crime investigation programmes like Body of Proof and Rizzoli and Isles (I'm not to keen on C.S.I). I LOVED Ugly Betty and super sad when it stopped!

I think that i have babbled on enough once i start i just can't stop! Anyway i best be off now as i think a good bit of corrie is coming up (ha)!

I hope that you will come read again! Tell me what you're favourite telly shows are at the moment i would love it if you liked corrie too!!!
