My Vacation Mani ♥

Hi guys ! Hope everyone had a nice relaxing weekend. Mine was sooo fun ! I went to the OPI Sale on Saturday and had a blast (And spend way to much )! And spend some quality time with the family... ♥

As I mentioned last week, today I'm sharing the mani I had on my vacation.  Since Durban weather is so much hotter than JHB even in winter , I wanted some fun bright colours to rock on the beach. ♥

For my mani I used OPI A Grape Fit, and had a fun textured accent nail with China Glaze Unrefined. And the best part - For the whole 7 Days I didn't have one chip.. ♥ Really impressed with the staying power of these two polishes.

Let me share the photos with you -


I just loved these two colours together. While on holiday, I got myself three new polishes too... Color Club Sexy Siren , Nails Inc Marylebone  and one of the mini Gosh range OH MY GOSH Pop Up! Purple  ....

I already used the Nails Inc as an accent in last weeks mani, but I will do a full mani and review about the colour this week, as I had a few requests to show it as a full mani . ♥

Hope you have a stunning Monday !!

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
