Essence : Magic Wand



Hi guys ! Hope everyone had a great weekend ! I did !

Today I'm showing you a magnetic nail polish . This one is from Essence and is called Magic Wand. First off.. I have to say, I struggled to finally get the magnet and the polish to work together . ( Perhaps I didn't have the most patience in the world when I started off though... ) This was my last attempt of many.. Sometimes the polish was a little too thick, I didn't keep the magnet close enough, kept it to close and the magnet touched the polish...

Anyhow .. the end results was worth the trouble..

I used 1 coat of Essence Magic Wand Magnetic Polish , with the stripes design magnet...


Here's the magnet and polish together...


This was the first ever magnetic polish I tried, and it does take a little practise to perfect, but it looks really cool and unique. ♥ 

I bought mine from Dischem, there's a few colours to choose from, and then a few magnet designs. ♥

      Thanks ! I also wanted the star design, but couldn't find it anywhere sadly. :( Magic Wand is the coolest magnetic colour in the range

Catrice ICONails Gel Lacquer Review and Wear Test

Hi guys. Happy Monday. How was your weekend ?? Today I will be sharing my review on the Catrice ICONails Gel Lacquer . I have worn this quite a few times since buying the product - so I have a pretty good idea how it preforms. The colour I got was a typical Lynette colour - The Catrice ICONails Gel Lacquer in Donut Worry be Happy. This is such a gorgeous fun pink colour. The range does have quite a few colour options - and what I do like about the range is that no top coat is needed. So while I always top coat polish or gel polishes - I didn't when I tested this out. Since I did mention I have worn it quite a few times - I always wore it without top coat. The polish dries amazingly fast - and is dry enough to not make dent marks on it within 20 minutes. Which I think is pretty impressive for a polish without top coat. The brush is on the thicker side - making the polish super easy to apply. I prefer nailpolish brushes like this since it's mostly just one swipe on each

CATRICE TREATMENTS SERUM REVIEW

Hi guys! Happy Wednesday. How was your week? I totally lost a day with the public holidays and Easter Weekend threw into the mix ... I was pretty convinced today was actually Tuesday. As I mentioned in my New on my Beauty Desk post in February - I got a few Catrice serums from their new range to try out. In total I picked up the Hydro serum as well - so today I will give you a rundown on the three serums I chose from the range to my routine.  Overall - I have a pretty good idea of which ones I love - which ones are good and which ones I'm not 100% sold on.  CATRICE HYDRO PLUMPING SERUM  This serum contains 1.5 %  hyaluronic acid and panthenol to plumps up the skin as well as have a soothing effect on the skin. Hyaluronic acid is well known to hydrate the skin and absorbs easily into the skin super quickly. I love using Hyaluronic Acid in the morning before applying make-up as it gives me a hydrated base to work with. Honestly, while I did enjoy using this serum - I do prefer the Sw
