Wearing Rimmel Rouge a Levres Rossetto in Diva Red

As you probably know by now I have this thing for eye enhancers, directly speaking: mascaras, eyeliners, cheap or fancy eye shadows. But lipstick? A Cinderella of my beauty bag, neglected, pushed and shoved. But sometimes my glamorous side takes over and comes out in frivolous amounts of glossy. Or matte. This summer I've splurged on five different shades not steering away too much from a girly pink because if you're just starting up, don't back off of what works. Sooo the devil red... suddenly my features came alive! I loved it, especially when paired with denim jeans, nice pair of heels and a high ponytail. Am I getting too carried away?

Wearing Body Shop Colour Crush Shine in Fuchsia Flirt (No 15)
One of the favourites - however subtle that may look it feels way more sumptuous in person and adds an extra spot of warmth to my skin. With a lot more blusher on my cheeks I'd feel 25 again!

Wearing MAC Lustre in Syrup
Not too sure at first about this one, I nervously agreed to have it applied at the store - darker than natural colour of my lips immediately put them more in focus. A little more defined but still not shouting crazily like hot fuchsia or fiery red.

Wearing Body Shop Colour Crush Shine in Poppy the Question (No 12)
A lot more shiny than the devil red one above kind of warms up my face making it look more lively and flirty. Not skipping the hot blusher which takes my makeup from being OK to much more appealing.

Wearing Primark P.S. Love...
Clearly nobody guessed but the juiciest, overwhelmingly exciting of all was my cheapish Primark find. It gets a lot of use, I have a habit of reapplying its soft texture alarmingly often. It stays on even when wiped off. It's about time to stock on it or wait for something better.


So far Nadia's seemed unconcerned with any of it. xx

GO ODD AND DIFFERENT

GO ODD AND DIFFERENT

























































































































If you can go a little off radar with your nails, well go for it! It's relatively easy with the right equipment and all the time in the world (or prepare yourself for a two day session, say one coat of polish per afternoon if you're a rarely casually strolling down the street mum). I only recently discovered the importance of adding personality round my cuticles thanks to my passionate about every stud, wrap and bottle of glitter friend. Sometimes simple splash of colour is just a little too bland that it needs a bit more insight in what's on my mind at a time. I'm still learning (mostly how to stay patient and not to apply next coat too soon but every minute matters in this household) and improvise as much as I can using the simplest of supplies (sellotape did the trick in this particular design). Days like that are rare but when they happen I've learnt not to fight the exceedingly tingling feeling of accepting the odd mistake and going for it anyway. As one does here all the time. 

Happy Wednesday, my friends!

GLAMOUR WITHIN REACH
GLAMOUR WITHIN REACH



















































Soon, me and my friend Aga will have not only matching lifestyles and habits but nails too. She has introduced me to nail art in which she’s way too good to compete with but slowly my inner artist opens up for dotting tools, stickers and glitter. I’m pretty certain shimmery gems are the last thing I expect to see on my nails on a daily basis but occasional creativity progressing into mandatory play with colours and shapes (mastered it since the birth of my muffin) will be a fantastic addition to my life. Wait until my next attempt being worth every damaged stud and liter of nail polish remover.

GLAMOUR WITHIN REACH
Have a fabulous weekend and come back to have a peak on our new adventures, outfits (in two sizes respectively) and thoughts. We were busy on all fronts! x
