Spring into Nail Polish!

As we go into Spring we all want to update our nail colours, so jump straight in pretty pastel colours. Posy pinks and marvellous mints are an annual staple for the Spring months, slowly breaking us back into colour before a Summer filled with brightness.

Any pastel shades are great. My favourite shades are mints and pastel purples, but the choice is yours. Nails are an awesome way of bringing colour to your look in a gentle way.

For a lovely drugstore nail polish look at Barry M, this brand have a brilliant range of shades, finishes and effects. If you are happy to spend a bit more the best brand is Opi, with their beautiful colours and wonderful opaqueness.

Rimmel Stay Matte Liquid Mousse Foundation Review

I recently bought the new Rimmel foundation at Superdrug. It was a good price compared to a lot of other foundations, at £5.99 for a 30ml tube.

After using it for the first time I was not overly impressed as when I apply it with my fingers it was awfully streaky. After that I tried using it with a foundation brush, "painting" it on and patting it in. This gave a much better finish and I was quite impressed. 

This foundation is good for oily to combination skin that is not too acne prone but prone to the occasional spot as it is a light coverage foundation with a matte texture. For dry acne prone it may be too light and drying.

For a natural everyday look for situations like school where you don't need full coverage this would be a great, reasonably priced foundation.
