Manicure Monday #5

Hello beautiful people :)
Hope you are all doing well and having a fabulous start to your week!
This is surprising because I haven't posted a Manicure Monday this early.
But today has been kind of a productive day!
Go me!
I have gone very pink and girly this week!
Pink and sparkles?
I am just loving this combination! aha!
This week I am using Sally Hensen's Bubblegum and O.P.I's Teenage Dream.
This wasn't my initial plan for this week's Manicure Monday.
I wanted to do a glitter ombre, but it just wasn't working out for me.
But I am still pleased with my nails.
The pink, itself, is very girly and the sparkles just make it even more girly and fun.
What I really like about the O.P.I polish is that there are very tiny sparkles and larger ones that provide a nice combination. 
The larger sparkles catch the light very nicely.

I've only had my nails painted for an hour and I'm spending most of my time staring at them whilst the light shines on them.
They are very feminine  and fun.
It's like a party on my nails!

Well, that's all for now!
If any of you know how I could successfully do a glitter ombre please share below, so I can try it again! :)

Fancy Friday #2

Hello beautiful people :)
I hope you are all having a beautiful Friday!
I don't know if it's just me, but these weeks are flying by!
It's crazy to think about how fast this year is going!
Anyways, I'm ready to share with you the things that I've fancied this week :)

My first favourite is this beautiful creation!
Let's all just take a moment to embrace the beauty of this phone case.
I have an obsession with phone cases, I can never have enough.
I'm constantly changing them, but I'll be keeping this one on for a while.
I've been searching for a bedazzled phone case because I am in love with bedazzled things!
I love sparkles and glitter and everything girly!
(Yikes, I wasn't aware of how dirty my screen was...let's ignore that)
I am a very picky person.
When I have something in my head, I must find the product that matches it.
If I don't then I will look until I find it.
So when I wanted a bedazzled case, I knew that had to have pearls and it had to be pink.
Voila, perfection!

I found this case by accident.
I was in the mall, just leaving from a job fair and this caught my eye.
The moment I found it, I fell in love with it!
This is literally me in a phone case.
I couldn't walk away from it, I had to own this. 
This case was $25, which is great considering I saw some very cheap looking ones going for $45...
I love everything about this phone case!
It's beautiful, it's me, it's pink and it's sparkly! 

My next favourite is the Maybelline Baby Lips :)
I've heard so many people rave about this product and I started to wonder if it was really that great.
Everyone loved the EOS lip balms and I think they're awful.
So when I purchased this product, I was very skeptical of it.
I've had this one for about 3 weeks and I have used it every day.
I put it on in the mornings, underneath my lip stick and before I go to bed.
I love love LOVE this lip product.
My lips can get pretty dry and before I started using this product, they were really dry.
But since I've been using this my lips are twenty times better :)
They definitely hydrate them and they're a lot softer.

I don't like how a lot of lip balms feel on my lips and the way they taste if some of it gets into my mouth.
The texture of this balm is very smooth and glides on very easily :)
It also doesn't taste disgusting, so I don't gag when I accidentally eat some.
This product is definitely worth the hype and I recommend everyone to try this out!
This and the Burt's Bees lip balm are definitely my top two favourites.
I've also purchased a tinted lip balm when I bought this one, but I haven't been able to try that one out yet.
But with the results of this clear one, I'm sure I'll love the tinted one as well.

My Final and Music favourite of the week is Demi Lovato's new album titled Demi.
I have been a massive fan of Demi since she's starred in Camp Rock, despite the fact that everyone around me wasn't a fan of her in those movies.
I did enjoy her music more than her acting though, but she's definitely a better actress than majority of the Disney stars today.
Demi has an amazing voice and I could listen to her all day.
Her vocal range is amazing and very impressive.
I love the lyrics to all of her songs.

She is one of my biggest inspirations.
I wish that I had a voice like hers.
What I love the most about Demi is how unique she is.
When she sings you know it's her because her voice and her music are very different from everyone else's.
She seems to be very down to earth and real.
She doesn't try to be anyone but herself.
My respect and admiration for her grew when she went to rehab.
That time must have been really hard for her and the fact that she has come out stronger and better amazes me.
She is an excellent role model to many teenage girls and young women who are struggling.
 This album is my favourite one by her.
The music itself is amazing, but my favourite part are the lyrics.
She is amazing song writer and I love that her songs are personal.
My favourite song on her album is the last song called Warrior.
The lyrics are so strong and powerful.
I love that it shows her growth to becoming a better and stronger woman.
She sings about turning all the pain and hurt that she's experienced into experiences that have made her stronger.
The more I listen to this song, it sounds like she is talking about the media and all the paparazzi and being in the music industry.
She's telling everyone that she can't be hurt anymore.
She's tough and has grown a thicker skin.
She knows that she's experienced a lot, but she's not going to regret anything.
This song is perfect and gives me goosebumps.
The combination of the lyrics and her voice is what makes this song so powerful.
:)

Well that is it for my Fancy Friday :)
Leave a comment down below, if you would like.
I'll talk to you guys soon!
Have a fabulous Friday,

Walmart Haul

Hello beautiful people :)
I hope you are all doing fabulous on this extremely fabulous day!
Today's post is going to be quite small, but I'm still excited about it. 
I absolutely love watching Hauls on YouTube and because I haven't started my own Pinky Party YouTube channel yet, I thought I would do a post instead.

Yesterday, my friend and I went to Walmart, which is extremely dangerous.
We are the same person and we are both currently obsessed with make-up, so going into Walmart or Target or Shoppers Drug Mart is just a disaster waiting to happen.
We went in to purchase one thing and of course we walked out with more than that one item...
The haul isn't massive, I didn't buy a lot of things but I still want to share it with you all :)

The reason for the trip to Walmart was to get Michael Bubble's new album called 'To Be Loved'
(I'm aware that I said bubble's, that was intentional)
I cannot begin to explain how beautiful his voice is and this album is just perfect.
It has been on repeat all day today.
I will definitely do an in-depth post about his album later on this week.
I am in love with every song and I can't wait for him to be a dad...
I know that has nothing to do with his album, it was just a little side note, hehe.

My next purchase was Maybelline's Baby Lips.
I have heard so much about this product and I've been meaning to buy it.
So I'm very happy that I finally have. 
I got two because they were on sale for 2 for $7, so why not take advantage of the sale.
The one on the left is Pink Punch and it has a pink tint to it.
The one on the right is Quenched and has no tint to it.
I have yet to open them, I have no clue why...
But I hope that it lives up to the standards, and in the future I'll let you all know my thoughts about them.
This last purchase shouldn't have been made because I do not need any more nail polishes.
I have a slight addiction and it's really bad.
But they were only $2.77 and they are the colours that I've been looking for. 
I've been trying to find a nice yellow and when my eyes landed on this one, I ran straight for it.
The yellow is Sally Hensen's 360 Mellow Yellow.
I have a tendency to go through colour phases and right now the colour I am obsessed with is coral.
I love coral lip sticks, coral clothing and I've been trying to find the perfect coral nail polish.
I was beaming last night when I found it, actually my friend found the last one...bless her :P
The coral is Sally Hensen's 405 Coral Reef.
I am so excited to paint my nails with these colours, together they remind me of pink lemonade...yay for summer :)
The only thing that I don't like about these nail polishes are the fact that they have round bottles instead of square bottles.
Lately, I've been obsessed with square nail polish bottles and sadly these aren't square :(
But I'm sure that I can look past it.

That is it for my haul.
I know it's tiny, but I hope you guys still liked it.
I will talk to you beautiful people later.

Manicure Monday :)

Hello beautiful people :)
So, I'm going to start doing a Manicure Monday on this blog.
With my summer already started, I find myself repainting my nails every week.
& I figure that it would be a great idea to show all of you what I've decided to paint my nails for the week.
Hopefully, as the summer goes on I will start trying new nail designs that I find on pinterest.
I will guarantee you that, they will not always turn out perfect, but hey at least I tried ;)

For this week's manicure, I decided to use two different colours of nail polish.
The first colour being L'Oreal's Greycian Goddess, number 560.
& the second colour being Sally Hensen's Bubblegum Pink, number 470.
I'm spending most of my week searching for a job and I wanted to pick a colour that shows maturity and sophistication whilst being playful and girly at the same time.
I used the Greycian Goddess colour on all four of my fingers and then using the Bubblegum Pink to accent my ring finger.
 
I'm not one to buy dark colours like the L'Oreal one, but for some reason this caught my eye.
It took a while for me to like it once I painted my nails with it for the first time, but I absolutely love it now.
I was skeptical to pair the two of the colours, but looking at my nails now I love it
The Greycian Goddess is very simple and mature, in my opinion.
Whereas, the Bubblegum Pink is very playful and girly.
To me, this shows the best of both worlds :)

Let me know what you guys think about my nails!
I hope you all had a beautiful Monday :)
