Nivea Lip Butter - Vanilla and Macadamia Kiss

Hello you ;)


(that's sounded really creepy....)

First off, this will be a short post.

The end.


Noo - I'm kidding! ;) It will be a short post - just not that short. Yesterday I went to Boots with a couple of my friends and bought a few things, among which was the Nivea lip butter Vanilla and Macadamia Kiss. I tried it immediately and only have good things to say about it. First of all, the taste is amazing! I had a praline hot chocolate once, and this tastes exactly like it. If I could, I would just eat it, that's how absolutely delicious it is.

The lip butter also felt so smooth and soft on my lips. You know how some lip butters are really sticky and heavy - well this one was NOT! I hardly noticed it on my lips. The hydration was also really good! My lips felt incredible after using this!

I adore this packaging! I have to admit, it is very small, but also so cute! The picture makes it look so creamy and smooth - exactly like how it is. Oh yeah, even though it is small, a little goes a long way and I'm sure this will last me a long time (if I don't use it every minute of every day ;)

The price was only £2.25 at Boots, which I think is the perfect price for such a good product! It's cheap - but not 50p cheap, you know - and not expensive either.

Overall, I definitely recommend this product and I will buy it again when I finish it.

Nail Polishes I Want

Hey guys!

(first of all, I'm ditching saying 'bonjour' at the beginning of a post - it's just so cliche and makes it sound like I'm trying too hard to be a good blogger... and also I realised i actually hate reading posts that start with 'bonjour')

So after that little rave... Who can guess what this blog post is about? I'm hoping someone can... Yes, you, in the back! What? Nail polishes you say? I wonder how you knew... I hope it isn't the title that's giving it away? ;)

I haven't bought nail polishes in months. Literally, the last nail polish I bought was Sexy Divide by Essie - which I love - but since then I haven't bought anything. And now that Spring is approaching - wait, that's not true - it's already here. March 1st is officially the day Spring starts. Anyhow, now that Spring is here, I am really getting the urge to go shopping for nail polishes. Especially Essie ones. Fiji, Miss Fancy Pants, Peach Daiquiri and Mint Candy Apple are all begging me to buy them. I have also been on the hunt for a really good nude and baby pink nail polish. I've seen the MaxFactor Glossfinity 'Desert Sand' nude colour and the Essie 'Lovie Dovie' and they look really good!

Here are the swatches of the polishes I want:
Essie Fiji

Essie Miss Fancy Pants

Essie Peach Daiquiri

Essie Mint Candy Apple

Essie Lovie Dovie

MaxFactor Glossfinity Desert Sand

(None of these images are mine - I got them off google!)


For Easter, I definitely want Fiji and Mint Candy Apple. They are so cute and definitely very easter-y! The problem is that these are so expensive! In Boots, all Essie nail polishes are £7.99, and the MaxFactor one is £5.99. They are beautiful, but do I really want to spend so much money on nail polishes? I think I do... But altogether it would cost £45.94. I'm not saying I can't afford this (I've got over £100 saved up), but I'm meaning to save up for an iPhone 5. So I'm stuck in a dilemma; spend £45 on nail polishes, or keep it in my stash for the iPhone 5?
