W7 Hot Pink

A few days ago I purchased a W7 nail polish in Hot Pink from B&M for about £1.70.
My nails are in shockingly bad condition at the moment, they just won't grow :-( so I enlisted the help of my 6 year old daughter Willow. Her nails are short but much better than mine...


2 coats, in daylight

2 coats, indoors.

I think they could have done with a 3rd coat to get total opacity but Willow wanted to rush out and call for her friend!

The quality of W7 polishes always impresses me and the bottle is exactly like OPI polishes. I wish I'd picked up more colours now...will have to take a trip back there I think!

New purchases

During my kitchen attack I broke the airer so we popped to good old B&M to get a new one. I drifted over to where they sell make up and noticed they had a 12.7ml tube of Maybelline Great Lash mascara (in blackest black) for about £2. My mum has raved about how good this is before so I thought I'd pick it up. I also bought another W7 polish in shade 79 Hot Pink (for about £1.70). I haven't tried either of the products yet but will post about them when I do.
I also bought myself a "light diffusing" concealer from Morrisons. Its the "Illuminating Touch" by Collection 2000 in shade 02 Natural (£4.99). I have decided I no longer need to buy foundation as my skin is fine with a tinted moisturiser alone. I had been using a foundation just for around the nose and under my eyes but have decided to go for a concealer instead.

I am yet to use this around my eyes and nose, I thought I'd just show you with a swatch on the back of my hand for now. I shall let you know how good it is as illuminating, highlighting and concealing my under eye circles when I get the chance!

Have you used any of the above products before?

Metallic Jupiter

Whilst looking for some stocking fillers for the girls in B&M (a store that sells a bit of everything for bargain prices) I came across some W7 nail polish. I picked up shade 89 Metallic Jupiter. Unfortunately my nails are in too much of a poor state to show you a photo of me wearing it so I've put some onto a bit of card instead.





It is such a beautiful colour, it reminds me of when you see oil from cars spilt on the road, it is a mixture of pink, orange, purple, green, blue and black. You can see in the pictures above it is slightly sparkly. 
For £1.57 it is such a bargain!
