Halloween Nails by Leighton Denny!

 Hey beaut's!

Who else is super excited for all things Autumnal, roll on crunchy leaves, cosy jumpers, boots with cute socks, candles oh and Halloween... Speaking of Halloween, can you believe it's something like 50 more sleeps to go, time is just flying by like a witch on her broomstick isn't it (see what I did there hehe)... Anyway I'm going off track now, I've recently been giving three Leighton Denny nail polishes a whirl that are perfect for creating a spooky manicure.

The first shade that I've been trying out is Maneater*, this new shade from Leighton Denny is pretty much a Halloween staple, it's a wet-look glossy jet black shade that will add some spooky drama to those nails. I love how this shade applies, usually blacks can be pretty tricky to get opaque but two thin coats was all this needed and it was as dark as night, I love it. The next shade is Caught Red Handed*, this is a bright, iridescent red that gives a 'naughty but nice' impression. I feel like this shade could easily take you from Halloween to Christmas because it's such a striking red, it look fab on toe nails too. Finally we have Miss Behavin*, this is the most gorgeous enchanting midnight blue shade. It's the deepest shade of blue I own which has a hint of shimmer and sparkle to it, despite being quite mystical it's actually pretty too.

Formula wise... these three are lovely, they are all super opaque and only take two thin coats for complete coverage on my nails, when they go on they aren't streaky and they don't bubble up at all and they dry really quickly too which is always a bonus. Lasting power was really good too, I'm really heavy handed at work and at home with housework and what not and these kept up really well and didn't start chipping away until 3-4 days of wear which is really good for me.

Overall I really like all three of these polishes by Leighton Denny, for such dark shades they performed and applied so well and definitely add a spooky element to any manicure. Have you tried any shades from Leighton Denny beaut's? Which would you suggest? I'd love to know!

Zoella Winter Wonderland Visit

Hey beaut's!

On Thursday me and my girlie Kate from Kates Closet got the chance to go down to London to visit Zoella's Winter Wonderland! We had an hour to explore and look at all of Zoella's new beauty and lifestyle Christmas collections as well as being able to tuck into hot chocolate in Zoella's new Cosy Vibes mug, get a hand and arm massage with the new Winter Wonder Hand Cream and dive into a huge snow globe and bath filled with snow, all whilst Christmas music was playing in the background. Me and Kate had the most magical time and I have to say after seeing all of Zoella's Christmas range in person it looks pretty epic, I mean don't get me wrong it all looks amazing online but being able to look, touch, feel and smell everything was just amazing!

Theres so much to choose from the beauty range this year and the scent is gorgeous, theres stunning notes of peony, refreshing mint and pink pepper throughout the range making it a super fresh, clean, snow like fragrance! The Winter Wonder Hand Cream and the Body Mist have to be my favourites, their so lovely and the packaging is super cute! 

The lifestyle range has such a cosy feel, theres everything from a cute mugs, gorgeous candles and reed defusers, stationary and theres even an advent calender this year. My favourites have to be the candles though, as you probably know I'm a sucker for a seasonal candle he he, Festive Cookie and Cosy Christmas smell amazing and I also spotted what I think will be an exclusive 'Christmas Clementine' which also smells incredibly festive!

 Me and Kate had such a fantastic time and even got goodies bag signed by Zoella containing the Snow'ella Body Mist, Winter Wonder Hand Cream, Cosy Vibes Mug and the Bento Station Stationary Set which was so generous of them!

You can find the Lifestyle range exclusively in Boots (it's on 3 for 2 yayyy) and the Beauty range is available on Superdrug and Feel Unique!

What have you got your eye on from the Christmas Collections beaut's? I'd love to know!

Tanya Burr 'Peonies Please' Illuminating Powder Review

Hey beaut's!

I've had the Tanya Burr Illuminating Powder in Peonies Please on my wish list foo quite some time now, and luckily for me my best friend Kate from Kate's Closet treated me to it for my birthday, yayyy thank you lovely! I've been using this powder pretty much every single day since my birthday so I thought it was about time I gave it a cheeky review.

The Tanya Burr 'Peonies Please' Illuminating Powder comes packaged in a nice sturdy compact with a clear lid and gold trim, usually I'm not a fan of makeup with clear lids but just look how beautiful that marble effect is on the powder, it's stunning! The powder itself has a baked feel and the pigmentation is really good so I'd definitely suggest using a light hand here, I quite like to use a fan brush to apply it so I'm not picking up too much product at once and I find this way the best for me, it blends beautifully. As for the colour... I mean it's just gorgeous, it's kind of a two in one product that not only adds a rosy glow to the cheeks but it highlights at the same time, its very healthy looking and dewy which is right up my street and even though it does contain minute shimmers there not too over the top or chunky! 

If your a lover of all things glowy and radiant like I am then I think your going to love this illuminating powder, it adds such a natural rosy glow without being super sparkly or glittery and it blends onto the skin so easily, I love it!

You can find the Tanya Burr Peonies Please Illuminating Powder for £7.49 HERE.
