Review - Jelly Belly Air Freshener in 'Tangerine'

One thing which is so important for any car, room office or even space is the fragrance and I absolutely love the 'Jelly Belly 3D Air Freshener in Tangerine'. 

The air freshener is 95mm long and is 3D and looks exactly like a flattened, oversized Jelly Bean as you can see from the images, which is really cute as they add a sense of fun to any space, especially a car which, with the help of the attached plastic hook you can hang it from your mirror.

You can also purchase this air freshener in Blueberry, Bubble Gum, Island Punch, Lemon Drop, Pink Grapefruit, Top Banana, Tutti Frutti and Very Cherry, and I purchased my air freshener from Jelly Belly's website for £3.49 (link below) although I am pretty sure you can but these from places like Halford's.

The fragrance is long lasting and smells so refreshing... perfect for Summer and is ideal for giving any space a lovely fragrance!

Review - Rimmel Professional Lycra Pro Finish in 'Chic & Cheerful 341'

As many of my friends know I absolutely love pink and nude nail polishes and the Rimmel Professional Lycra Pro Finish in Chic & Cheerful 341 hits just the spot, being a gorgeous grey stone/nude/taupe nail polish with a warm undertone. 

These nail polishes seem to last forever on my nails without chipping and keep their shine without even having to apply a top coat. Rimmel say that these nail polishes last up to 10 days and I actually do believe this. The swatch below on the nail shows the nail polish however it does look a lot darker than it actually is, and is more like the colour above in the pot.

The other thing I love about this nail polish is the new maxi brush which is so smooth and easy to apply onto your nails and takes about 5 seconds to paint one nail!

I bought this nail polish for £3.99 from Boots (link below).

Review - LA Colors Color Craze Nail Polish in 'Hot Blooded'

Another gorgeous nail polish from LA Colors which I just had to buy is the colour 'Hot Blooded' which is honestly one of the best reds which I have ever seen as it is so classy, yet very seductive and creates a bold statement! I like this red because it has blue undertones, so therefore it is not orangey in the slightest.

LA Colors Color Craze is said to be "an exciting new collection of vivid, bright colours for fingers and toes! Brilliant colours instantly add character to any style. No matter what your mood is, these playful, dazzling, flirty shades will surely brighten your day, as well as your nails!"

I love LA Color nail polishes because I find that they are ultra chip resistant, and that the colour lasts forever on my nails and also because the colour is so pigmented! You can see the shine that the nail polish creates, even without putting a top coat on the nail polish.

The nail polish is DPB, toluene and formaldehyde free which is also an added bonus!

I honestly think that if you have not heard of LA Colors nail polishes before then you should definitely look into them and perhaps take a trip down to Westfield to the beauty shop (no idea what it is called but is sells loads of perfumes etc) and purchase a few, as for £1.00, you really cannot go wrong.

Have you ever tried this nail polish and what do you think of it? What other LA Color nail polishes do you love to use?

Review - Rimmel Professional Lycra Pro Finish in 'Aqua Cool 420'

In my last blog post 'Review - La Colors, Color Craze nail polish in 'Sparkling Diamonds' I was also wearing a light blue nail polish which a few people have emailed me and asked what colour I was wearing, so I thought I would write a quick review on the nail polish.

The nail polish I was wearing was Rimmel Professional Lycra Pro Finish nail polish in Aqua Cool 420 and I absolutely love it, costing only £3.69 from Boots and have also just found it on Amazon for £1.99 (link below).

I absolutely love the brush which is quite wide and flat and is so easy to use, especially on acrylic nails. The polish goes on really smooth and easily and creates a really fab coverage which is so good for a drugstore nail polish and is so pigmented.

The blue as you can see is a sort of bright but also a quite dull blue and it looks absolutely gorgeous on! The nail polish dries really quickly, which is so good as I am quite an impatient person.

Have you ever tried this Rimmel nail polish? What other colours do you love using on your nails?

Review - LA Colors Color Craze Nail Polish in 'Sparkling Diamonds'

On a little Westfield shopping trip I had at the weekend, I picked up this gorgeous LA Colors Color Craze nail polish in 'Sparkling Diamonds' for the amazing price of £1.00!!!

I have been absolutely fascinated with this nail polish ever since I bought it as I love the combination of large round glitter and the smaller glitter. When applied the nail polish creates a gorgeous gel effect.

I love this nail polish on my nails as it gives really good coverage (with hardly no chipping) and you can wear it either over a colour or just on its own. As you can see I used this nail polish on its own on my ring finger and then used Rimmel Professional Finish in Aqua Cool 420 on my other nails.

The only problem with this nail polish is that it is really slow drying and being very impatient, to build a nice colour it did take quite a while.

Overall, I really love this nail polish as the effect is beautiful and for £1.00 you cannot really go wrong!! 



Have you ever tried this nail polish or any other LA Colors nail polishes? If so, which colours have you tried and would recommend to me?

Review - Locia Nail Polish Remover Scented Pads in 'Apple'

A product which I have been using for quite a while now is the Locia Nail Polish Remover scented pads in apple, which are perfect for removing nail polish and also moisturising your nails with added essential oils.

The small pot contains 32 round scented pads which are absolutely drenched with oils which add so much moisture into your cuticles and nails but also remove your nail polish in literally a second by just wiping the pads over your nails and voilaaa.... your nail polish has vanished!!!

This product is Chinese so I cannot understand what ingredients are in this product but having researched the product online they contain essential oils to help moisturise your nails and having used them for about three months, I have actually seen that my nails are beginning to get stronger... which after continuous applications of acrylic nails this is amazing.

I purchased these nail polish removed pads on eBay about a month ago, and sadly I do not think that the eBay seller I bought them off still stocks them which is such a shame as they were only £0.50. I am sure if you have a search on the internet you will easily be able to find them and they are really worth having a look for. These pads come in the scents Peach, Green Leaves, Blueberry, Lemon, Strawberry and also the Apple which I am reviewing. 

Have you ever tried Locia apple scented nail polish remover pads and what do you think of the product ? What other Locia scented pads have you used?

Review - OPI Nail Polish in 'If You Moust You Moust'

OPI never ever fail to excite and amaze me and in my opinion OPI is definitely the best nail polish that you can purchase at such a good price!

One colour which I have loved for a really long time is If You Moust You Moust, which is a gorgeous shade of pink, which is from "The Color of Minnie" 2013 Collection. OPI says that this collection was "created in honour of Disney's beloved character, the colors encapsulate Minnie Mouse's irresistible charm in playful, pretty shades of pink and red. This collection brings together the expertise of OPI and the iconic style of Minnie Mouse to inspire the distinct palette of vibrant, feminine shades for summer Nails will pop against summer skin in these classic, saturated hues - holding their own alongside the bold prints of the season".

The colour is a gorgeous bright, but also light pink - almost like a bubblegum cream pink. I have looked online the OPI website and If You Moust You Moust actually has a purple/blue undertone which would describe the gorgeous colour between a sort of magenta and hot pink shade. Even without the OPI top coat I use on top of the nail, is has such a glossy finish.

The pictures are with 2 coats of nail polish, so you can make the colour lighter or darker depending on how many coats you apply to your nail. I was really surprised at how long the nail polish lasted without chipping, which was 6 days!


When I use this on my actual nails then I would have used the OPI base coat underneath the polish, and then used the OPI top coat over the top of the polish, although the polish is super glossy on its own which is an added bonus to the nail polish.

I purchased this nail polish from John Lewis for £11.95 - they have an amazing stall in the High Wycombe branch where you can see the whole range!
This nail polish comes everywhere with me in my makeup bag and is perfect for taking on holiday for when you want a burst of pink in your outfit. 

Gorgeous (no filters used)

Have you ever tried If You Moust You Moust and what do you think of the shade? What other OPI shades do you love and use?
