un. deux. trois. voilà.

1. Soap & Glory Make Yourself Youthful CC Superfluid in 'Good Light'

2. Clinique A Different Nail Enamel in 28 'Birthday Suit'

3. Deborah Lippman Nail Color in 'P.Y.T (Pretty Young Thing)'

My recent beauty buys when my sister and I went shopping literally like 5 days in a row. I'm obviously addicted to nail colours and love to switch it up; hence the two, moderately expensive new bottles. At the moment, I'm into subtle, feminine shades - perfect for all this sunshine that we've been having lately. I'm especially excited to try the Clinique nude shade which looks particularly lush. Clinique's range of polishes has received numerous good reviews, so hopefully it won't disappoint. 

The Soap & Glory CC cream / tinted moisturizer was a spontaneous purchase. The tester in the store smelt soooo good (antioxidant mulberry) and so it'll hopefully be perfect for lazy summer days, when only light, SPF coverage is needed. 

I've yet to try any of the three products, but when I do, I'll share my thoughts. 

Have any of you tried these beauty buys? 

Love x.

review: Rimmel Nail Polish

Rimmel London Salon Pro, Kate Collection, in Soul Session.

I've irrevocably fallen in love with this nail polish, it's so lush! Not only is it an ultra-feminine couleur mignonne (it's just that cute, I have to describe it in french), but it's also long-lasting and high-shine.

It's a lovely, subtle shade, almost with a nude, lilac undertone. It's been 3 days since I applied this colour, and so far, absolutely no chips! It may have partially been down to the topcoat I applied, but other nail polishes I've tried with the same topcoat just don't compare on that level.

This is drugstore beauty at its best: it's crazy affordable (~£4.49) and the quality and colour are uh-ma-zing. As someone who takes their nail colour very seriously, this is definitely a new favourite. 

It's sweet and romantic, like those daydreams you get when you imagine you're languidly wandering down the Champs-Élysées to the French lull of Juliette Gréco... ah, c'est le paradis. 

Love x.
