Neon and Glitter!






I just got back from Paris, and after all the travelling, I got home and wanted to refresh my nails and toes with a matching, fun, bright design! So, this is going to be a quick little nail look and a very cheap one at that.

The neon pink nail vanish is from Primark, I find the formula fantastic, its smooth and very glossy when you apply it. For a real opaque nail I would apply 2-3 coats. As for the price £2.50!!!
The Glitter nail varnish is from Topshop, its a multi grain holographic glitter and its £6! 

Hope you enjoyed this little nail look! :)

Hey Abbie's Beauties :)
Finally, a new make-up look! It's been agggesss... 
As one of my friends in work is getting married this summer, I was inspired to do a wedding makeup look. 
I got inspired by the simplicity of Bella Swans make-up from the Twilight Saga Breaking Dawn! I love the hint of colour on the corner of her eyes, with a smoky lid.. very sultry and sexy without too much. As i think less is more on your wedding day! As for the lips... The natural Collection Lipsticks are £1!!!!! They are so so so moisturising and go on the lips so smooth and pigmented. The staying power of the lipstick is amazing too.. Got to have a good lipstick with all the kisses you will be giving on your wedding day including the most important one! <3
I hope you like this make-up look :)
