NPOTW - OPI by Sephora Almost Famous

Want gorgeous summer nails???? I am currently loving one of my Sephora/New York purchases.  This little lovely goes by the name of Almost Famous.

sorry for the dodgy misshaped nails

A pretty champagne colour with a fine silver glitter, this polish is very a joy to apply ...1-2 coats and you're all done.  Sadly Sephora is only a US or a European store.  In the UK we are unfortunately not blessed with our very own Sephora stores......(yet, never know one day) Grrr!!  This is a nice quality polish and doesn't chip or peel.

If you're in the UK you could visit Paris or Calais for the nearest stores....or if you wish to push the boat out...NEW YORK!!! Lol!!!

If you cannot buy Sephora OPI, then the UK version I would recommend is Models Own Champagne.  It's a real similar shade, they could almost be twins.  I'll do another post shortly comparing the pair.

Monthly Favourites: May

I admit I didn't do a April favourites....that's mainly because everything I got from NYC was my favourite of that month.

Products I've been using constantly are as follows...in no particular order


Simple Cleansing Wipes
I've always loved Simple wipes, they always remain moist until you use the very last wipe.  I stopped using them for a while due to the price.  They can cost about £3.99 a packet which I think is a little on the pricey side.  I went to Costco recently where they sell a pack of 6 for approx £12, if you do the math it's quite a excellent deal!

Benefit Dr Feelgood
A summer essential if you suffer from oily skin like myself, a quick dab over your forehead and cheeks and the product makes all oils just disappear like magic!  Always in my handbag.

Rimmel 3 in 1 blush in Summer Fever
A recent purchase which I will review soon.  Three different colours in the blush, blended together or used on their own.  Really gives a lovely glow to the cheeks.

Rimmel Sun Shimmer Bronzing Powder in Light Shimmer
...another recent purchase.  The label says 'shimmer', which I will disagree with slightly.  There is a slight shimmer, but you won't look like a disco ball with this.  Gives you a nice glow.

Makeup Forever HD Foundation in shade 115
Not much you can say with regards to this but it's long lasting, great coverage, brilliant finish and the perfect shade.  I think this is an amazing foundation. Enough said!!

Max Factor Cream Blush in Soft Pink
I've used this cream blush every single day.  It's not a full size version, just a sample which was a free gift from Max Factor (along with a few random bits and bobs).  I think this product is lovely.  Blends great and creates the perfect i'm 'flushed' look.

I'm also loving my Primark £1 bargain....my little daisy chain head band.  Very summery....




What are your current loves....?
