Quick everyday makeup post, just what i threw on my face before work this morning, it's been so hard to choose what make-up to put on because of the hot weather i feel like it just starts to slide down my face as soon as i get to work because the air-con just doesn't work and is stuck on 26 degrees :|
I never ever wear liquid eyeliner, this is literally so old i don't even know if it's stocked in superdrug anymore but iv'e switched to this instead of my loreal gel intenza gel eyeliner the past few weeks because of the heat, the gel starts to smudge and look messy but the liquid liner does not budge!
And quick fact, the necklace im wearing was once pink, i painted it with an essie nail varnish in fear and desire. DIY

#NOTD Barry M Blueberry



 Barry M - Blueberry 306 - £2.99

So, iv'e decided to attempt to blog again, im attempting to post at least once a week but hopefully more, but we'll see. :| i know im a terrible blogger i'm just so lazy.
Anyway, i got this colour in april and yet iv'e never used it since tonight and actually i really like it, i didn't think i would as blue isn't really a colour i would go for. 
This is just one coat, after taking the photos i applied another coat which wasn't necessarily needed but i just prefer two coats, i like to know my nail is fully polished!


pigmentation - 9/10 - one coat is fine if your in a rush
drying time - 9/10 - a few minutes and its done which is good considering the thickness
application - 8/10 - standard brush, easy to apply.

overall - 9/10

Something to get festive about - ORLY Halloween 2013


Maybe not too exciting but nevertheless... this is the Halloween 2013 collection from Orly and to be honest, it's not fantastic but the fact that Halloween is coming so close and so fast i couldn't help but get a bit excited by it.
So basically there are only four shades in the collection which are all pretty much the same apart from the glitter black.
You may not be able to tell but the two oranges are in fact different shades:

Top left - Orange Punch
Top right - Liquid Vinyl
Bottom left - Goth
Bottom right - Melt your Popsicle

I can't wait for autumn now, get the be thankful Yankee candles out and start wearing shirt jumper combos and chunky scarves. And the sun's only just made it's appearance in the UK... OH WELL.

Anyway, the collection is out mid August in the US and September sometime in the UK.
