Special Occasion Duos | Perfect Nail Polish and Lipstick Duos

Special Occasion Duos | Perfect Nail Polish and Lipstick Duos 






Hey,

Hope all is well,


Today I thought I would share two of my favourite nail polish and lipstick duos with all lovely people.

Previously I purchased two Technic nail polishes for the very affordable price of 99p in the colours of 'Morello' and 'Seashell'. And when I got home, I realised that they go perfectly with two of my favourite lip sticks: Maybelline Long Lashing Lipsticks in 'Drop of Sherry' and Kate Moss' nudes collection in 'Rock 'n' Roll Nude'.



These duos are perfect for any special occasion out, be it a day out or for a party. The best thing is that the lipstick has strong pigments that match the strong pigments of the nail polishes. The Technic polishes are great, because for an affordable nail polish, they're consistency is very good and they last for a long time without chipping and coming off; even for someone like myself who is always busy at work picking up products and serving customers and writing non stop at college.
    The lipsticks are an absolute favourite of mine. I adore their pigments and they have a lovely cream-like consistency to them, meaning they can be applied evenly and leave your lips looking smooth and you looking gorgeous.

One duo that I love is the grouping of Maybelline Long Lasting Lipstick in 'Drop of Sherry' and Technic Nail Polish in 'Morello'. These two beauty products seem to compliment each other completely, and I call this duo 'Very Berry'. Their pigments are a dark red berry colour, one of my most favourite colours recently that I cannot get enough of. This duo is perfect for a special occasion, or even just every day, as they add a pop of colour to your look that's neither too bright or too pale but is perfect to give a little extra to your look. This duo is my most used beauty duo at the moment.


My second duo that are ideal for any occasion, especially later in the year with spring and summer, is the combination of Maybelline Long Lasting Lipstick in 'Rock 'n' Roll Nude' and Technic Nail Polish in 'Seashell'. The metallic pigments in the nail polish compliments the nude pink undertones and pigments in the lipstick, giving off a shimmery, pinkish look; perfect to convey a elegant feel to your look. This duo is also used often by me when, especially during every day because the paler colours are more subtle but still intense in their pink pigments. I have named this duo 'Pearl Pink' for their lovely pink tones that convey a subtle feeling of elegance.



There you go, my nail polish and lipstick two beauty duos that are perfect for any occasion.

Affordable Party Nail Polish | Affordable Nail Polish for any Occassion

Affordable Party Nail Polish | Affordable Nail Polish for any Occasion

Hey,

Hope all is well,


I thought I would share two nail polish colours that I think are great for any night out or occasion when dressing to impress is key; and what better way than with very affordable nail polishes.

I purchased these Technic nail polishes from Body Care a few weeks ago for the affordable price of 99p, in a selection of colours that I just love; a metallic polish in the colour of 'Seashell', and a dark, satin-effect nail polish in 'Morello'.
   These nail polishes are not only affordable for 99p each, but are also a rich colour and great consistency when applied, meaning they would look great for any occasion, such as a party or a night out, and makes it easy to apply without the fuss to need to apply non-stop layers and layers; making them a must-purchase item.

When it comes to nail polish, I am not one to be fussy about the brand. To me personally, if a brand serves me well and is a good match for me, then I will continue to appreciate it's ability, especially if a brand is cheaper and more effective than another brand;because there's nothing more worse than spending lots of money on expensive makeup and beauty brands, only to discover they don't actually do anything or are of a terrible quality. But these nail polishes however are the exception.

The nail polishes are affordable- great for a student like me who only works part-time in retail for long hours- the consistency is great, meaning you only need to apply one layer to achieve a great coverage and colour, instead of using two or three coats of polish which takes forever to dry. The nail polishes also come in a large variety of colours, meaning you can afford to pick as many a you like. I mean just imagine spending £6.00 on just one polish that holds 12ml, when you can have six 12ml nail polishes for £5.94; definitely a better deal for a beauty product that you want to keep.


Overall these polishes are a definitely a very affordable party nail polish, that's perfect for any occasion. I adore their colours and their purple tones. These polishes are also pretty versatile for a nail polish, especially for someone like me who is always busy at work where the polish could be scratched off; a very ideal characteristic wanted in any nail polish.

The Key Winter Accessory | Black and White Panel Scarf

The Key Winter Accessory | Black and White Panel Scarf


Black and White Panel Scarf.


Hey,


Hope all is well,


With everyone and everything sheltering from Winter to escape it's cold breeze, there's nothing I enjoy more than dressing up cozy and comfortable to tackle the chilling weather ahead. And on this note, I can honestly say one of these items I am addicted to are gorgeous, comfortable scarves which I frequently incorporate into my everyday Winter wardrobe.  


I purchased this Black and White Panel Scarf from Next in Swansea for a reduced price of £8.00 in their sale, whilst on holiday in South Wales. I am a lover of sales, so when I saw this scarf, I snatched it up and took it to the tills; which I'm glad I did because I just cannot get enough of it.

incorporated into my everyday
wear.
   I adore this Black and White Panel Scarf because of the casual chick edgy vibe it generates with the contrast of colours between black and white. Paired with a Burgundy Jumper, Black Skinny Jeans and Boots, I feel this scarf creates a statement look to any outfit, whilst being extremely warm and comfortable to wear; a must have characteristic for an item in my everyday Winter wardrobe. 


The Black and White Panel Scarf is ideal for the winter months, due to it's gorgeous pattern and chick edgy vibe, but also its long length, and wide width. Its width means it covers my body from the cold, and it's length lets me swing it around my neck to achieve the casual edgy vibe the scarf creates.

To add, because the scarf isn't chunky and bulky like my other scarves, this means I can easily wear it around my neck and under my coat without worrying if I'll still be able to zip the coat up and stay warm when wearing it.
   The scarf is also extremely soft, meaning it's comfortable to wear throughout the day, unlike more chunkier scarves, which can become scratchy after being worn for a certain amount of time and feel uncomfortable to wear; a definite no for any item for the Winter season where comfort and warmth is a key aim. 


My Black and White Panel Scarf is my most frequently worn scarf so far this winter. It's practical, yet stylish, keeping me warm and comfortable whist conveying an chick edgy vibe as a Winter statement item. Incorporated into my Winter wardrobe look, I can say this scarf was a great affordable buy, does not fail to please, and looks chick and edgy no matter how often you wear it.
