Update on Me :)

So I thought I would type up a blogpost before I head home today for my friend's wedding which takes place tomorrow. I can't wait!

I was deciding on what to do my blogpost on as this week as been pretty crazy and stressful with packing and school work! My room is a complete mess at the moment...well not so much as everything is in boxes but you know what I mean. I probably sound really OCD but I think I am going to repack everything into the boxes...I envisaged all of one particular item in one box but I have just ended up filling all the boxes with whatever can fit!

A job for Friday I guess.

So, moving place is so hectic but I am looking forward to moving in with my sister. It has been a long time coming but the moment is finally here! Even if it is for a year...I assume she will get engaged/married next year and I might decide to go abroad and teach. Nothing set in stone at the moment but just potential plans. 

Other than that...I had time to dye my hair :P as usual a top up of red hair dye which I cannot get enough of and then just playing around with my makeup. I find that go in and out of phases of uses some makeup products and then revert back to a particular every now and again. At the moment, I haven't been wearing a lot of eye colour, just standard black eyeliner and a pop of a flushed cheek colour along with a pale pink lip ( loving OCC Lip Tar!)

So here is a more recent pic that I took 2 days ago...the day after I dyed my hair and literally scrunched in some mousse and curl cream and pinned it up. I will note down the makeup below. Tomorrow I will be adding just a pop of colour as I am attending a Pakistani Wedding which are about bright and vibrant colours! I am wearing a sea green suit/lengha with silver embroidery (top and skirt) but want to keep the makeup quite natural. I will try to get a decent pic before I go and do a post sometime next week or on Friday as my internet goes this weekend so they can transfer it to my new addy.

Face: 

LM Oil Free Primer, LM Tinted Moisturiser in Sand, LM Secret Concealer in No4, MAC Moisturecover Concealer in NW20 (undereyes).

Pretty, pretty nails...

Another nail post. It seems like this blog is turning into a manicure blog :P

Well a few weeks ago I saw that Models Own had brought out some new nail art pens. They  are infact a collection of pastel nail pens ranging from lemon sorbet to strawberry meringue.

I was initially only going to pick up one but then that changed when I had lots of ideas for nail art patterns. So I bought a pastel bluey-purple and a pastel lilac-purple. Both are so pretty.

I used Barry M Blueberry as the main colour and then painted my ring finger with Barry M Lychee and then painted on a paisley/henna pattern with the bluey-purple nail art pen.

Love the colour of my nails!

On that note I've actually just finished painting my nails now...but more a neutral colour for this week. I have mixed Barry M Lychee ( beige) with Rimmel 60 Seconds (Pink Princess) which gives a gorgeous muted pink beige colour similar to Essie Van D'Go which I want!

Lots of blessings and love,

Sara xx

Pretty 'n' Pink Paisley Nail Manicure

Hello lovelies :)

I am trying out blogging from my S3 today to see how it is. I thought I would do a quick nail post as I gave myself a mani on Saturday and I am LOVING it!

I painted my nails with a basecoat and then applied  2 coats of Barry M Gelly Nail Polish in Grapefruit to all nails except my ring fingers. It's a bright pink almost neon/fluorescent nail colour perfect for this beautiful weather :) I then applied 2 coats of Barry M Gelly Nail Polish in Lychee which is a lovely creamy ivory colour. I sealed the rest of my nails with Seche Vite and then another topcoat. RESULT: UBER SHINY NAILS.

I then used a Topshop nail art pen in bright pink and designed a paisley/henna pattern on my ring fingers...and sealed it with Seche Vite and a topcoat. I love it....my nails looks really on trend now and definitely compliment this gorgeous weather :p

Have any of you created a spring/summer mani?

Love and blessings, Sara xx
