Product NOT worth the hype | Barry M

Shade - Kingsland Road

This product is NOT worth the hype around it at all, I was extremely disappointed with this. I expected it to give me a really nice textured finish but instead it ended up giving me a finish that looked like I had cotton wool stuck on my nails. 
It was nothing what I expected it to be and I honestly wouldn't recommend this nail varnish - don't waste your money! 

This has been the first Barry M nail varnish that I've not been impressed with as I absolutely LOVE the new gel finish ones that have been brought out so look out for a post on those. 

What do you all think of the textured nail varnishes from Barry M? Do you have the same opinion as me?

RIMMEL VINYL GLOSS | QUICK REVIEW



If you had read one of the previous posts you would have seen the lip gloss I bought; the Rimmel London Vinyl Gloss in the shade 'Pin Up'.

Since that post, I have used this lip gloss quite a lot and I must say I absolutely love it. It gives me a nice colour to my lips without the need of any lipstick underneath and the colour stays on for quite a while. I did need to reapply it about 2/3 times but I honestly don't mind doing that if it's going to give me a finish that I like.

What do you all think of this lip gloss colour? Have you tried any of them?

NEW BAG | ZARA OFFICE CITY

If you had read my previous 'Wishlist Wednesday' you would know the bag I've been wanting. I know there has been a lot of hype around this bag so I went into Zara today to see this bag as I'd only seen pictures on blogs and YouTube videos. I did, deep down, want this bag to look worse in the shop so I would have an excuse not to spend £49.99 on a bag BUT I just couldn't stop myself when I saw it. I just had to have it and that's exactly what happened. I'm now £49.99 poorer but I have a gorgeous new bag to make up for it!

 My first impressions of the bag are really good, I love that it has all the different compartments and I know I'll use them all a lot. This bag is going to be my new 'every day' bag and I might even post a 'What's In My Bag' post so keep an eye out for that one. I also love that the bag has certain 'squidgy' compartments that are meant for I-Pads and laptops which I think is amazing. I'm always a bit scared to put my I-Pad Mini in my bag as I always think it's going to get scratched or smashed so luckily this bag will make me feel a lot better when I take it out with me. This bag will be absolutely perfect for Uni aswell, carrying all my notebooks etc. 

So far this bag gets a 5/5 rating for me, I literally LOVE it. 
Have any of you purchased this bag?
