HoHoHo

I don't know why I do this to myself in such a fashion rich city, I often find myself trolling back on England's online shopping sites (ASOS, Topshop, Urban Outfitters, Net-A-Porter, H&M, Zara, River Island). I suppose as there's a low market for online shopping here as most of the stores are small boutiques whereas larger companies within the UK have sites to find everything you want in one place.. well here's my Christmas Lust list - be warned there's a load of images so those of you on mobile data plans I don't suggest you read this from your phones (yes, I know you're reading )

Accessories


This festive season, or rather since Halloween infact I've been a major lover for deep red cherry / burgundy nails, possibly accented with a gold tip or so, but here are a few available from my favourite and affordable nail brands Barry M & Rimmel.

Tops
As my winter wardrobe's aren't ever complete without a couple of knits, this year I'm loving the fisherman knit and the sparkle and fluff cropped knits for both the cool sophisticated look as well as a sexy chic look when teamed with a LBD. I've also chucked in a couple of extra's that caught my eye, not necessarily joined to this festive season but lusts nonetheless

Extras
Possible stocking fillers / gifts for either boys or girls all in which I love

happy shopping x

Re-vamping your gel liner

First thing's first I bet you're glad to know that I've not got a memory card for my camera again! So out with the macbook/iPhone photos and back to the clearer 'ish' quality haha! Unfortunately I've landed myself a fulltime job and I'm still adjusting to the time schedules and finding the right time to blog... I'm sneaking this into my lunchbreak as I type :) Aside from all that I digress from the main topic:

Are you tired of your Gel liners drying out and being a pain to apply even when you heat it on the back of your hand? I find this has happened with my MAC fluidline especially... Well there's an old trick with nail polishes when they get dry - to add a little remover in. I've done the same with my gel liner!

Before:
Notice how it's dry looking and rather rough - this has been on the back of my hand for a while and there's no sign of any smoother application. Hoever after I've just TOUCHED - you don't want to soak the brush otherwise the liner will become too light.

After
You can compare the top blog to the lower blob, see how it's alot more smoother and the colour is still just as potent? With this trick a little goes a long way. Additionally I do this per application as I'm not sure what the implications of mixing the while tub will be - be warned! This has made my mornings alot faster and easier. Just sharing!
