Valentines Day Challenge - Love Notes

Hi guys ! Hope everyone had a fab weekend ! Sorry for no post on Friday, as many of you know it was my little guy's birthday, and I was to busy running around getting everything perfect to post. But don't worry, I will show off the nails I did for his party this week too !

A while back my awesome friend Elena posted about this fun challenge on her blog that she is joining in, and I decided to join in the fun too. Here is Erin's blog link - LovelyLacqueredLife that's hosting this cool challenge !!

For this mani, I used two coats of Tip Top French Manicure White, and accent nail was Tip Top Fairy Dust , which I stamped with Salon Express plate (SE20) and China Glaze Adore. I did some newspaper prints over the white, but decided to mix it up with a poem someone wrote for me a few years back , and I felt this was my love note, so I really wanted to share it on my nails too  ♥ I just love the outcome of this mani !!
Hope you love this mani as much as I do ! I know computer printed wasn't the best choice for these newspaper nails, but since it has a special meaning , I'm more than happy with the outcome. 

Remember to go check out Elena's blog too for her Valentines day posts , and her all round awesome nail posts too  - EcklipsedbyColor ♥

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 d...
