Review- Nails Inc Pret a Porter Collection

Well, it's December 30th already, a whole 5 days have come and gone and I am still in full on Christmas spirit, currently snuggled up in bed blogging while watching Home Alone on the ipad (which I just downloaded for free thanks to iTunes 12 gifts of christmas app! EEEEP!) I've been up since 7 this morning and have spent the majority of it painting my own nails, and my pretty new colour wheels and have decided that no is a perfect time for another review!!!

I am a huge nails inc fan, but  I really think that they have excelled themselves with this one!

 I love glitters and the two that come in this set are possibly the best glitter varnishes I have ever tried. Unlike others, these give you a complete coating of glitter, not just a speckle and look beautiful! In general, all of these colours are of an amazing, long lasting quality and don't need that many coats. they also dont take all that long to dry. I really couldn't find a single criticism of any of these and would seriously recommend them to anyone!

Have you tried any of these colours? What do you think?

Review- A.S.P Soak Off UV Gels

Hey guys! So, as promised, here is my review on ASP Soak off UV Gels. I used to spend an absolute bomb on going to the salon to have Shellac nails, and would then go home and get bored of the colour in no time so ended up taking them off in a week or so before they even had a chance to chip. After a while of this constant circle of events, I decided I wasn't going to do it anymore and that I would invest in my own UV lamp and gels. Shellac and Gelish are probably the most better known brands, as these are what the majority of salons used but they are so expensive! My solution? ASP!

These pots of gel cost around £6/7 if my memory serves me right, may be wrong on this one though! But either way, they work out A LOT cheaper than the other brands, which the price is fair enough when you're able to charge £25/30 to do other peoples nails, but if you're someone like me who solely does your own nails, its just too much! I received the above colours for christmas and I'm yet to try them all, but I have so far managed to try out the Cherry Pie and Disco Ball!

Application of these is easy. Time consuming if you're doing your own nails, but thats just one of the downfalls of doing your own nails as you have to do one hand before starting the other. As you can see in the picture, the colour on the pot isn't quite like the colour it is when applied, I dont mind it and actually think I prefer the actual colour than that shown, but others may not be so happy about this. The disco ball glitter is gorgeous too, but definitely no where near as glittery as shown and gives more of a shimmer. I also found that you need to have a good few coats of the Cherry Pie as on first application it is kinda transparent. Over all though, I love these products and the colours!

Until Next Time!

The Little Blog of Christmas Beauty Gifts

Hey Guys!

So this is my first proper blog post for "The Little Blog of Pink Stuff" and what better way to start it than a Christmas post? This year, I received lots of beauty gifts so over the next few weeks I will be making my way through them and reviewing the products all in a separate, detailed blog for each product. As it's only boxing day, I decided I'd start it off with a blog which will include all the products so you know what to look out for in the coming weeks!

Corioliss C1 Hair Straightener- This straightener is AMAZING. Initially, I asked for a GHD. Me and my mum have used them for years and have had no problems. At one stage they were the best straightener on the market, however, after being recommended by a lady in Sally's who insisted that this was the product I needed, the C1 has definitely won me over!  I've only used it once, but so far it definitely comes up tops! I'm really looking forward to writing a full review on this one!

Diva Professional Styling Big Waves- I have no idea how I will find this product! I have never ever used this sort of styler so it could end in disaster! If anyone else has used this then let me know! I'd love some tips!

 Nail Varnish and UV Gels- Ok, So as you can see, I had quite a few nail products. At the moment I have the slight issue of too many colours not enough hands! Each product will have a review at some point though and I will be starting with the gels!

Marc Jacobs Fragrances, Honey & Dot- This is the last beauty product I have to review. I love these fragrances, I really, really do. I already had Daisy so this christmas asked for a few more of his fragrances as I want to start collecting them. My wonderful boyfriend bought me Honey, while my mum and dad bought me Dot. 

So that is it! That's what we have to look forward to in the next couple of weeks! Do you have any of these products? What do you think of them? What beauty products have you had this christmas? 

Until Next Time! :)

The Little Blog of Pink Stuff

Hey guys!

Welcome to my blog! 

So, for my first post, I thought it would be a good idea to introduce myself and tell you all a bit about me. My name is Laura and I come from Swansea, Wales. I'm 19 and I work as a receptionist in an accountants. Aside from work, i go to college, one evening a week and enjoy nail art and reading. I set up a blog a while ago called Pretty Polish & Happy Hearts which was basically for me to show you guys nail tutorials and give reviews. After a while, I started stuggling to update as much as I would have liked too so I stopped, but now I'm back with my new blog, The Little Blog of Pink Stuff! 

So why the change of blog I hear you ask? Well change is good and with this blog, what I can post about is more varied. So from now on I will be posting a lot of the usual nail posts but will also be able to throw in some new stuff too with reviews of other products I like, books and maybe even some films. Maybe I'll even throw in the odd lifestyle post! Who Knows, but with christmas looming and Santa's arrival imminent what better time to start back up again! 

I'll leave this post as it is and look forward to writing my next! I really hope you all enjoy and as well as having my old readers, I may even gain some new ones too! 

Until Next Time!
