China Glaze : Glistening Snow

Hi guys ! Hope everyone is having a great week so far ! I had a rough start to my week, but luckily it's starting to look better now ♥

Today I'm showing you China Glaze Glistening Snow. I used this gorgeous colour packed with holographic colour for my new years mani, but I got a few requests to show the colour on it's own too. ♥

This is really a gorgeous silver colour. It shines in the sun ! (My camera refused to capture this on a rainy day sadly) The holographic glitters in this colour is super gorgeous . This colour does dry a little gritty and even with my top coat (this baby eats top coat like crazy ! ) it still feels a little rough. This isn't a problem for me, but I would recommend a second layer of top coat if something like that should bother you. It does however dry SUPER fast .

For the mani I used three coats of China Glaze Glistening Snow, and did an accent nail with China Glaze Material Girl. (I did a swatch of this colour earlier last year.. And while I wasn't happy with the colour at that time due to thickness and chipping, I'm glad to report a little thinner sorted this issue out and I'm in love with this colour again ! ♥ )
I just love this colour combination with the silver and pink  ! If you haven't gotten yourself a Glistening Snow from the 2012 Christmas Collection, I would really suggest you get one soon, this baby is way to gorgeous to pass on ! This colour is amazingly gorgeous !

How has your week been so far ??

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
