Nail Inc (Glamour Freebie)
I am a subscriber to Glamour magazine and on 30th October I received a freebie I wasn't expecting. A Nails Inc Nail Polish. This is the third one in three years so I suppose in a way I should have expected it! Not bad when I only pay £10 a year for the subscription though (I have been a subscriber for years and the price has stayed the same!!)
This year I've become a lot more interested in nails and make up instead of just clothes - which is the main reason I started my blog. I'm just starting to experiment really and although I'm not a pro like other beauty bloggers I will do looks that are fun and simple to recreate. So for this reason I decided, as with the Benefit product freebies, I would try and get each shade of nail polish. At the moment I have Warwick Avenue (which came in the post), Jermyn Street and Hempstead Heath. I'm on the lookout for the last shade, I've heard it's a dark red...
Anyway, today I'm posting my current mani - Jermyn Street. And my oh my does this look much better than I thought it would. Such a perfect Autumn shade. Neutral but by no means boring - see for yourself!!
If you want to purchase the magazine to get the free nail polish, as far as I'm aware there are two versions of the magazine as pictured below...but it could be that the one on the right is for subscribers only as I didn't see it in the shops...??
What do you think - have you got/tried any of these yet?

Giveaway - Models Own & Maybelline Nail Polish
Hi everyone, I wanted to wait until I had more followers until I did a giveaway - but that hasn't been happening lately. When I started this blog a few months ago I didn't expect to have any followers, yet I have people viewing my pages everyday, and I'm really glad that what I write about make up interests others out there!
So to say thank you, I want to do the giveaway anyway, as an early Christmas present to the loyal followers I already have.
When cleaning out my nail polish draw I found duplicates for a few nail polishes, which means these items have never been used.
First Prize
Second Prize

All you have to do is be a follower and post a comment with your email address below. The winner will be picked at random.
To get extra entries (each of the following gives you 1 extra entry):

Good luck everyone!! xx

July's Glamour Giveaway!!
I know Glamour always send me my magazine earlier than they release it in the shops and I knew that this month they were giving away Benefit eye make up products - that's right, a £2 monthly magazine giving away a £14 make up product. So I phoned the fiance to find out which free item I got, and it was the eye pencil. I was quite excited as that is actually something I use quite often, compared to eye brightener and concealer, but in another way it was a bit of a downer because I already have so many eye pencils.
What I decided to do was...go out and buy 5 more magazines...crazy I know...but it means 2 of each benefit product for just £10, when their total worth is £90!! So actually quite a good idea I thought, or perhaps a little obsessive! But then pencils do last a lot longer than most make up products...so hopefully a good investment - we shall see.
Here are the products...quite nice, smart packaging, very funky looking. I think I will keep them in their boxes as I'm a little bit attached to them...sad I know. The first product I tried was the black eye pencil, it went on smoothly, and evenly, but didn't have as much pigment as I get from my Rimmel eyeliner (which is probably my favourite because it's cheap and cheerful, Urban Decay has probably now been pushed into third place). This eyeliner didn't gather in my inner eye after a few hours which is actually the first time it hasn't happened with eyeliner...
The other two products I tried when going to see my fried for her birthday on Saturday night and I think I put a bit too much concealer on as it wouldn't rub in very easily, but I'm not really used to using it so it'll take me a while to get it perfect.
The same with the eye brightener really, I love to sleep so not sure my eyes need brightening up much, but this was £2 guys, I could not resist!! I will have to use it though, otherwise Dave will moan at me...and plus I think Benefit obviously have some really good products so once I've learnt how to use this properly it could "Benefit" me alot, hehe.
