Santa Nails!

Hey everyone!

I'm really sorry about the lack of updates these last past couple of months, everything has been a bit busy and I hardly get the time to paint my nails! If you don't hear from either me or Rosie on here again before Christmas, then Merry Christmas! You most likely won't hear from us until after the New Year, where I'm hoping we'll be able to update to you all that happens over the holidays!

One of the major things that has happened is I have finally decided to do something good instead of sitting around doing nothing and have applied and been accepted to do a Nail Course at my local college! Hopefully I'll be able to take pictures of what I do and post it as well!

So today I have Santa Nails for you! For this I used Rimmel STRONGER base coat, Barry M White, Barry M Emerald Green, Tesco All About Nails  Poppy Red, Miss Sporty Black, Gold Acrylic Paint, Dotting Tool and a Small Paint Brush.

If you do wish to see a tutorial then please ask! You can comment below or pop up to us on Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, Bloglovin' and Instagram!

BEAUTY HAUL!

Hello everyone! It's Rosie, first of all I just want to so say I know I haven't posted in such a long time, but I've been so busy! I'm going to try and post as much as I can, but it won't be as much as I used too!

I have a BEAUTY HAUL for you guys today! Some of these products I have purchased myself and others I have just recently got as Christmas presents from my friends! Hope you enjoy!

So BELOW I purchased 3 out of the 4 products here. First is the Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer, usually I would go for a concealer from my favourite brand, Rimmel. However one of my favourite Youtube Make-up Artists is Tanya Burr and she absolutely loves this concealer so I thought I would try it out and it's amazing! Completely covers my spots and blends in so well with my foundation, so I definitely recommend this concealer as it's amazing quality and so cheap! 

Next is the Rimmel Exaggerate Eye-shadow Primer, as I'm going out clubbing a lot more lately, my eye-shadow definitely seems to come off a lot by the end of the night, so I needed to invest in a primer, I picked up this one for £4,99 which I thought was amazing, I have yet to use it but I'm using it tomorrow for a night out and so I'll do a review or something on how it goes!

The next product is a Body Shop shower set, it contains a Loofah, Body butter, Body scrub and Body Wash, and it all smells like Lemon! It smells absolutely amazing and I can't wait to try it out, so thanks to my friend for buying this as a Christmas present for me! :)

And last is Rimmel Glam'Eyes Mono Eye-shadow in Jet Black 214. The black eye-shadow I use at the moment is coming to the end of it's days, so I purchased this single black eye-shadow and it is seriously amazing! The pigment is fantastic and it applies so nicely with no fall out! It also blends out really well without me doing a lot of blending so I couldn't be happier with it! 

Ok, So below are two things that my friend got me for Christmas. First is a NEW impulse spray called "Into Glamour" with the smell of Sandalwood and Vanilla. I sprayed it and it smells lush! Very pretty and very girly smelling but also quite sexy at the same time, so I can't wait to use it!

She also bought me these beautiful feather earrings from Argos? I think I'm not entirely sure, but I'm sure you can get something like this from New Look. They are very long which I really like and the colour is burgundy which I have never really wore before, they have gold chains attaching the three feathers and I think they're beautiful! 

The last product I got were these three gorgeous Nail Polishs from the brand W7. The first is a Metallic Purple colour, the next is a Light Pink Sparkly colour and last is a Vibrant Blue with big Sparkles in! My favourite is definitely the blue, it stands out so much! I would definitely recommend these nail varnishs as they are so big which is a bonus and apply really well!

I hope you enjoyed this post. Please follow us on Twitter, Tumblr, Instagram and Bloglovin'.

Gingerbread Nail Art!

Gradient Snowflake Nail Art!

Hey everyone!

So this week coming is going to be extremely emotional for me, I'm saying goodbye to my all time favourite boyband at there goodbye tour! Unfortunately I have never had the pleasure of meeting them and I probably won't then either (if I did I would probably faint!)

But I have done this Gradient Snowflake nail design and I have to admit I am in love with it! Sadly my camera has decided once again not to pick up the fine glitter on it (my camera is very temperamental)

For this I used Rimmel STRONGER base coat, Barry M White, Barry M Gelly Blueberry, Barry M Gelly Prickly Pear, Barry M Royal Glitter Pearl, a small paint brush, a dotting tool and small hexagonal glitter.

If you want to see a tutorial then pleaseeeee ask! You can comment below or pop up to us on Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, Bloglovin' and Instagram!

Christmas Lights Nail Art!

Hey guys!

So I'm super uber happy! I won a Miss Sporty goody bag!! So hopefully when that arrives I shall put it up, and the Christmas tree is up! Which is what gave me inspiration for these nails!

On my ring finger I had this amazing idea in my head like when you take a photo of lights and they come up as larger circles, unfortunately I couldn't seem to get it to work out on my nails, I hate it when that happens!

I used Rimmel STRONGER base coat, Barry M White, Miss Sporty Black, Barry M Turquoise, Barry M Gelly Greenberry, Miss Sporty Yellow, Marks and Spencers Ruby, Black Acrylic Paint, a thin brush and a dotting tool.

E.L.F Make Up Brush Review!

Hey guys so I have something different for you today! 

Instead of nails I have an E.L.F. Make Up Brush Review! Now when I say I'm completely new to the 'make up world' I mean it, I'm 18 years old and the only make up I have depended on was my trusty concealer, eyeliner and mascara! But since starting this blog with Rosie I have started to get into make up more and more, constantly watching youtube tutorials and I now own two lipsticks (which I might do a review on soon depends how this one goes) and 5 make up brushes! I will hopefully soon be able to go shopping and get some more make up and might even do a haul!

The brushes I bought I would say would be the 'beginners brushes' so if you're starting out like me I would definitely recommend these 5! 

Outfit Of The Night!

Hello everyone! So I went out for dinner with my family last week and so I thought I would show you what I wore! I will list where everything is from and with links as well and how much everything was. P.S I look so tall in the photograph but I'm actually only 5'5.. P.P.S sorry for shitty quality of the photograph, the mother took it ;)

What I'm wearing:

• Gold Studded Leather Jacket: Primark £25 
• Silvery Chiffon Dip Hem Blouse: New Look £8
• Shiny Wet Look Leggings: Boohoo £9.99
• Wood Platform Black Lace up Heels: Brought from Preloved, originally from Truffle Shoes £12.99

If you're wondering about my hair, I just straightened it, nothing too fancy. My make-up was like one of my previous make-up tutorials which you can view here.

I hope you enjoyed this, please follow us on twitter, instagram, tumblr and bloglovin'.

Striping Nail Art!

Hey everyone!

So it's been an extremely busy week, but I just about managed to get my nails done before I went out for a meal for my nan's birthday!

I did some striping nail art that took me absolutely forever to do! 

I used Rimmel STRONGER base coat, Barry M Gelly Prickly Pear, Barry M Gelly Plum, Rimmel Superwear Topcoat and striping tape!

I didn't get the chance to clean up around the edges which is really bad I know but I was literally running around the house trying to get ready on time! 

This originally wasn't going to be a review, but I strongly advise if your doing nail art designs to NOT get the Rimmel Superwear Topcoat, I was looking forward to using this, but as you can see it didn't really work out that well, it smudged all the colouring, it shrunk the polish, and took forever to dry! I hate having to say mean things :(

What's your cheapest favorite top coat? Write a comment down below or tell us on Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, Bloglovin' and Tumblr!

Drugstore Haul!

Hey everyone, so here is a haul for you of all the products that I have bought over the past few months. I hope you enjoy it! NOTE: Some of these products I got on a deal so that is why there are two. But some products I did get on a deal I have only included once in the photograph, don't know why...I should have done everything really...ah well.

Products bought: 

• Lypsyl lip balm 
• Rimmel London Lash Accelerator Mascara 
• Simple Face Wipes 
• Simple Hydrating Moisturiser 
• Simple Pore Minimiser 
• Simple Action Spot Zapper 
• Max Factor Colour Adapt Foundation 
• VO5 High Volume Hairspray 
• Batiste Dry Shampoo in Blush

Most of these products were bought in Superdrug, however while shopping around I found the occasional product for so much cheaper so I had to pick it up! 

I have already started using all of these products, so here are some reviews on what I think of them so far. 

Lypsyl lip balm: My lips are so chapped this time of year, this works very well but after I put it on my lips the taste is not so good and I would rather have something that tasted better like Strawberry or something. So I do recommend it but the taste really gets in your mouth,eww. 

Simple Pore Minimising Gel: I previously used a toner which I thought would tone my pores as my pores are so awful! :( But I decided to try this gel out instead and it really feels like it's working into my skin, I lather loads of it on and it barely goes down inside the bottle! So i'm glad I got a deal on this and picked up two! 

Batiste Dry Shampoo in Blush: I use Batiste quite a lot on my hair, I previously used the original version of Batiste which was great, but because I was running out I thought I would try a new one with a different smell. I bought this one and I can say it works but smells really weird and it isn't so nice...I still use it on my hair because it does the trick but I would recommend going for another smell. 

I hope you enjoyed this haul and would like to see more! I have a few ideas for the next coming weeks so stayed tuned, it includes my Fashion Winter Essentials and an OOTN (Outfit Of The Night).

Nimbus Nails!

Hey everyone!

So I did these a while ago now but have only just got the chance to post them up, it's NIMBUS NAILS a simply genius idea done by TheNailasaurus! I'm so in love with this idea!

For this I used Rimmel STRONGER base coat, Barry M White, Barry M Gelly Pomegranate, Barry M Pink Flamingo, Barry M Strawberry Ice Cream, My own made matte top coat, cotton buds (Q-tips in America I think?) and acetone.

You check out the tutorial on TheNailasaurus page here!

Fireworks Nails!

Hey everyone!

So it's bonfire night soon, which means fireworks or massive bonfire's! This is actually one of my favourite holidays of the year! 

For this I used Miss Sporty Black, Barry M White, Miss Sporty Metal Fusion Aurora Borealis, Barry M Blueberry Ice Cream, Barry M Gelly Plum, Barry M Spring Green, Nails Inc Atomic, Nails Inc OMP!, Miss Sporty Clubbing Colours Yellow, Miss Sporty Sparkle Touch, Tesco All About Nails Poppy Red and a small brush.

Step by Step;

1. Apply your base coat and two thin layers of black.

2. Although you can't see it in the photo I used the grunge effect that Chalkboard Nails (check it out here) has done with the Miss Sporty Metal Fusion polish.

3. With the small brush apply some white nail polish and paint onto your nails in small strokes to get the firework effect.

4. Apply your coloured nail polish to the ends and the top of each flick of the firework

5. With the Miss Sporty Sparkle Touch polish spread around the fireworks to make it seem like the stars.

6. Apply your top coat and show them off!

Bronzy Brown Make-up TUTORIAL

Hey everyone, I haven't done a make-up tutorial in what feels like forever! So definitely comment or tag rrbeautyxo on twitter, instagram, tumblr to give me some ideas of what you would like to see! Ok, so on with the tutorial...

List of products I used: 

Face: Simple Pore Minimiser, Simple Moisturiser, Simple Spot Zapper, Max Factor Colour Adapt Foundation (natural), Rimmel London Stay Matte Powder.

Eyes: Unbranded Eyeshadow Palette, Colour Unlimited Eyeshadow Palette with a set of three colours, Bronze, Gold and Purple (sorry it doesn't have a specific name), Rimmel London Kohl Eyeliner, Rimmel London Lash Accelerator Mascara. 

Step 1: First apply a goldy, bronze eyeshadow all over your lid.

Step 2: Use a blending brush, blend a dark brown eyeshadow into your crease.

Step 3: Line your top lash line with black eyeliner, dragging it out to where you finished your eyeshadow to create a flick.

Step 4: Apply as many coats as you want of your chosen mascara. (Before this step I did curl my lashes)

Step 5: I have also dragged some brown eyeshadow underneath my bottom lash line instead of using an eyeliner. And again applied mascara to my bottom lashes.

Ok so I did want to show you guys what the finished look, looked like with my eye open so here it is! I hope you like it because I kinda winged this tutorial, I had nothing set out and I didn't look at a make-up look and copy from it, I just kinda went with my own thing. 

I hope you like this look, please follow us on tumblr, twitter, instagram and bloglovin' we would really appreciate it! Thank you!

So today is Halloween! What's everyone dressing up as? 

The theme for today's nails is Costumes! Now I'm a bad person because I have done them on false nails again! I can explain! Has anyone checked out The Nailasaurus? She has come up with one of the best designs I have seen called 'Nimbus' which you can see here, and I've currently got them on my nails! Which I will post in a couple of days.

I used Barry M White, Barry M Gelly Prickly Pear, Miss Sporty Black, 17 Fast Finish FURY, Tesco All About Nails Poppy Red, a dotting tool and a small brush.

We've got the witch hat, the vampire, the mummy and the skeleton.

Monster!

Hey everyone!

So today is Monster! I unfortunately had to do this on a false nail as I literally had no green paint left, I had to pour it onto a paint pallette! Goodbye green you've served me well over the years...

I used a green that I have no idea what is called that I got from Spain, Barry M White, Miss Sporty Black, a dotting tool and a small brush.

The picture shows all the tutorial, so need to explain it all, I am aware it doesn't look very scary, I think the eyebrows made it to "cute".

Blood!

Hey guys!

Todays theme is Blood! Ewwww!

I was originally going to do the simple blood dripping down the nail but then I thought so many other people would probably do that and I wanted to be different so I typed Halloween Nail Art into youtube and PackAPunchPolish has by far done the best thing I've seen for amazingly disgusting nails! Click here to watch it!

I used Rimmel London STRONGER base coat, Barry M Gelly Lychee, a red polish from a beauty uk set which you can get here, and a dotting tool.

I had so much fun doing this it's unreal! PackAPunchNails did an amazing tutorial on it that made it so easy to do!

UV Body Paint REVIEW!

Hey everyone, I am so excited about this review! Basically I'm going clubbing for Halloween and I didn't want to be scary so I thought about UV Body Paint, so I bought this and it's amazing!

Where I bought the UV Paint from: 

Site: eBay

Seller: partysupplies2u

Price: £5.99 (free postage) for 6 colours (10ml)

Colours: Pink, Peach, Orange, Blue, Green, Yellow

I know the photograph of me isn't so great and the lighting is weird but getting a photo with UV Light in the background is harder than you think! Basically you can create a design anywhere on your body, I chose to do it on my face and create this design! I used a cotton bud to dab the paint onto my face, I know it isn't perfect but I'll do it better on the night! 

I definitely recommend getting UV Body Paint if you want something simple for Halloween or for any occasion, like New Years Eve or a party that has UV lighting. When the product came I did think they were really small but I only needed a little bit for the night and I can use them again, but for the price they are worth it and if I ever run out I can just purchase them again, they came really quick in the post!  

I hope you enjoyed this review, make sure to follow us on twitter, tumblr and instagram: rrbeautyxo 

And feel free to ask any questions or give suggestions!

Critters!

I used Rimmel London STRONGER base coat, Barry M matte white, Miss Sporty Black, Tesco All About Nails Poppy Red, dotting tool and a small brush.

Once again this is all about the doodling, I really hope you like it!

Halloween Tutorial: SUGAR SKULLS (HAIR)

Hey guys it Beckiie (Rebecca)

So I was going to add this onto the bottom of the last post but then thought why not just make a new one!

We unfortunately forgot to take the pictures from the back and sides of the hair so the photos you can see are on the post below.

What you need;

• Babyliss curling iron 
• A teasing comb which you can get from any chemist or use an afro comb
• Superdrug's own heat protection spray (which you can get here) 
• VO5 high volume hair spray (which you can get here) 

Step by Step;

Step 1: Split the hair into separate sections, switch on your hair curlers and we heated it up to 170° 

Step 2: Lightly spray on your heat protection spray and grab a small piece of hair and curl it, hold it for about 20 seconds (depending on your hair type) and then place down the hair curlers.

Step 3: Spray the curled hair with hairspray and gently back comb the hair.

Step 4: Repeat this all the through your hair then section of the top part of your hair and back comb it all so it has a high volume and tie a hair band so your hair is on top of your head (I'm aware this doesn't make to much sense it's hard to describe!) and then lightly spray hair spray all over it again just to hold it in place.

If you've got any hair tutorials you want to see or anything at all then please ask, or pop up for a chat or follow us on twitter, tumblr, bloglovin', instagram or facebook; rrbeautyxo

Halloween Tutorial: SUGAR SKULLS

Hey everyone, here is another Halloween Tutorial for you! Hope you like it! P.S HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Products used: White, Black, Red face paint, Number 17 Lipstick in a dark purple shade, and a small sponge and small paintbrush.

Ok, so below is a close up of what Beckiie did on me, how amazing is that! Keep reading to know how to create this creepy sugar skull look!

Ok, so here are the steps to create this look:

1. First off, cover your face in white face paint, preferably use a sponge and it will cover your face more quickly.
2. Next, with a small paint brush, outline your eyes with a circle using the black face paint.
3. Using the red face paint, create little circle shapes or half flowers? Around the black around your eyes.
4. Then getting the black again put a small black line through the red around the eyes.
5. Next for the nose, really we just copied a picture, and it's hard to explain how to do it so you can just look at the picture above.
6. For the mouth, I used a dark pinky, purple shade of lipstick but you can use whatever you have, just make sure it's a dark colour because that will add to the creepy effect.
7. Then with the black draw a line from one side of your face to the other connecting the lips, then create small lines through that line to make stitches on the mouth.
8. For the last part, you want to draw a small half sun on your chin, using the red and outlining it with the black.

And there you have it, a Sugar Skull Halloween Tutorial! If you are wondering about my hair, Beckiie is going to do a post on that and how she did it, so come back and find out how!

Halloween Tutorial: RED BAT EYE!

Hey guys so here is another Halloween tutorial for you! I hope you like it!

The products I used: Red face paint, Sponge, Small paint brush, Black face paint.

How to achieve this look:

• First of all you can apply white face paint over the face to make it white but I just concentrated on the eye.
• Next get your red face paint and dab a sponge or small paint brush into it, create a circle all around the eye, try to make it as even as possible but don't worry if it isn't perfect because you can always change it by using white face paint around it.
• Next I used a small thin paint brush I drew a line across the lash line and out to create a flick.
• I then created small bat like shapes across the eye with the black face paint and using the small thin paint brush.

I hope you enjoyed this simple Halloween look, I think its great if you don't want to look too scary but still want to have something unusual.

Pumpkin!

Hey everyone!

So it's Pumpkins today!

I used Rimmel London STRONGER base coat, Barry M White, Nails Inc ATOMIC, Miss Sporty Black, make up sponge and a small brush, I didn't use a top coat because I have temporarily misplaced it...

You don't really need a tutorial on this one again, its all about the doodling, and the orange was done by a make up sponge which I have done before here.

Graveyard!

Hey everyone!

So today has just been one of those days! I expected a nice relaxing day but that didn't happen the minute I woke up! Had a really bad headache all day and that's enough to put you in a bad mood, but then I couldn't find half of the colours I wanted, so I couldn't do the design I wanted.

I used my absolute favorite and only base coat Rimmel London STRONGER, 17 Lasting Fix Royal Indigo, Miss Sporty Black, Miss Sporty Yellow, a small paint brush and my trusty dotter.

You've got your classic creepy trees, the haunted house and the gravestones, this is more of doodle type of design so I don't really think you need a tutorial on it :)

Simple Halloween MAKE-UP TUTORIAL!

Hey everyone! So it's getting close to Halloween now and I know you're all at least doing something for it, so I thought I'd come up with my own Halloween Make-up Tutorial. I have taken other ideas and techniques from youtubers who have done Halloween Make-up Tutorials so I hope you like my idea!

Products used:  Simple Soothing Facial Toner, Simple Hydrating Moisturiser, Simple Rapid Action Spot Zapper, Max Factor Colour Adapt in Natural (70), Rimmel London Concealer in Soft Honey (103), Rimmel London Stay Matte Powder in Transparent (001), Unbranded Eyeshadow Palette, Rimmel London Soft Kohl eyeliner in Jet Black, Rimmel London Lash Accelerator Mascara, Smudging tool, MUA smokey eye palette, unbranded dark purple lipstick. 

How to achieve this look:

1. First of all apply your foundation and normal face routine.
2. If you'd like you can add white face paint onto your skin to make it paler, I didn't have white face paint at the time so I couldn't do it.
3. Next I filled in my brows just to make my face look more structured, plus I always fill in my brows anyway, haha.
4. Then you need to start adding the eye shadow to create dark eyes, first just apply black eye shadow over your eyes and then blend it into your crease, it doesn't matter if it's messy because you're meant to be dead!
5. I then used a dark eyeliner and created a very thick line over my eye to line my lashes, I then used a smudging tool to smudge it all over my eye. 
6. Blend out your eyeshadow as much as you prefer and how far out you want it, remember don't worry if it looks messy.
7. Then bring thick eyeliner down on your lower lashes and smudge that out as well, you can also bring the eye shadow down as well to make it smokier. 
8. Curl your lashes or apply falsies if you'd like. If not apply your usual mascara, I used Rimmel London Lash Accelerator Mascara, it's fantastic!
9. I then apply my dark purple lipstick quite thickly over my lips, I created such a great look as it almost highlighted the inner part of my lips and darkened the outer part. 
10. Then for the final part of this Halloween look, I used the same black eye shadow i used for my eyes across the temples of my forehead and brought it up a bit more just to create a dark highlight.
11. I then contoured my cheeks with the black as well and made quite a think line which creates a dead, skeleton look.
12. I also contoured the sides of my nose as well just to make it look longer and highlight all the lines on my face.

I've loved doing this look and I hope it gave you some ideas on how to look for Halloween this year. I can't wait for Halloween, I love it!

Ghosts!

Hey!

So it's the 13th (luckily not a friday!) so it's ooooooo ghosts!

I've got to admit this is one of the ones I was most looking forward to doing! I had some googly eyes that I brought from years ago and this just seemed to scream for the occasion. 

For this I used Rimmel London STRONGER base coat, Barry M White, Miss Sporty black, Miss Sporty top coat, a dotter and googly eyes that you can get from any craft store.

Step by step for the fingers;

1. Apply the base coat.

2. Paint your nails black.

3. Wait for them to dry, grab your dotting tool and dip it in the white and make two dots onto your fingers.

4. Then get a small dotting tool and dot it into the black and place anywhere on the white, the more adventurous the more whackier!

5. Apply your top coat and your done.

(Anyone else think my thumb looks weird?)

Step by step for the thumb;

1. Apply your base coat.

2. Paint your nails white and wait for them to dry completely.

3. I used a pen to outline the ghost, and then with a small detailed brush painted the black around the outside.

4. I used some nail glue to stick the googly eyes on because it will stay on longer but you can just use a clear polish to stick it on, then with the dotting tool made a small circle for the mouth.

5. Put on a top coat and have fun wiggling around your nail to make the eyes go everywhere!

On a normal occassion I would of done this on my ring finger but I have really rounded nails and the eyes would of never stuck on, I have really really long skinny fingers so I think thats the reason they're like it :(

It's a really bad quality photo I know!

Favourite MUA Products!

Hey! I've picked some of my favourite MUA products and thought I'd share them with you guys. MUA isn't my favourite brand of make-up but they definitely have some great stuff!

Ok, so the first products I'm showing you guys are these above. On the left is a nail varnish I recently got for Autumn in the colour Plum Noir, it's a deep purple colour that looks absolutely amazing on my nails! And unlike most nail polishes it didn't chip for quite a while which is great! Next are the two palettes, my friend bought me these for my birthday actually, one is called 'Smoke Screen' and the other is 'Pink Sorbet'. I would say I have used the smokey palette more than the pinks just because I love having dark smokey eyes when I got out. I would definitely recommend these palettes though because using three colours, one for the inner part of your eye, the outer part and the crease is great to get you started when creating the same coloured make-up look! Last in this is a Gold Glitter Eyeliner, I have had this for ages but have only recently started trying it out, I think it looks fantastic on, it isn't dull or doesn't move off your eyelid, it's definitely great for a party!

Ok so this is a palette I use everyday, mostly for highlighting and blush. The colours consist of (from left to right from the top to bottom) Pistaschio, Mocca, Ice, Grape, Chocolate, Cookie, Pink Sparkle, Primrose, Bronzed, Shimmer Kiss. The colours along the top are eye shadows and the colours along the bottom are blushes, bronzer and highlighter. I have already used the purply colour and the dark brown colour and they are amazing, they stay on all night and apply really nicely! The blushes are a great match for any ones cheek and it's nice they have two shades, one darker than the other. The highlighter I also use under my eyes everyday and down my noise just to brighten my face and it looks great!


I would definitely recommend all the products I have shown here, they are all super cheap so great if you need new make-up face and are on a budget! MUA products are always super cheap but are good quality.
