Spoilt for Choices






Nail Polish Review And Haul!!!!!




From left to right, top to bottom:Top: Spontaneous, VII. Fith Avenue, Make An Entrance. Middle: Life Preserver, Desert Sun, Hey Sailor.  Bottom: Swing Baby (one of my favs), Black Diamond,  For Audrey ( love it tiffanys blue!),  White On White 


Hey So i wanted to make a blog post on these babies as i have been loving them! I have mad a video recently on all the nail polishes i have picked up and i thought i would write about my favorite new brands! So as you can see China Glaze and Sally Hansen are the two brands im going to be talking about. I was so impressed by the quality and the range of colours features in both collections! I will start by giving you a little information on each brand. China Glaze has been on the market for thirteen years, what makes it so unique is that the formulas contain china clay, china clay is the same matirial used in porcelain to make it all shiny and lovely! The brand is truley unique and the colours are too. They have a very diverse range of colours from neons to glitters and shimmers to the perfect red! i am truley enchanted by this brand and the results it gives me!

From left to right: Double Duty Strengthening Top And Base Coat, Green With Envy, White On, Lacy Lilac,  Rockstar Pink 

Sally Hansen on the other hand has been around alot longer, sprouting in the 50's Mrs Hansen and husband formulated a nail protection formula, 'Hard as Nails', people started calling it 'the nail clinic in a bottle'. All though i have only tried the hard as nails range, there are alot of others available from crackle overcoats, french manicure sets, nail growth miracle polish, to magnetic nail designs and nail polish strips! so there is something there for everyone. Both of these company's are equally unique in the benifits they offer and the result. I have fallen in love with China Glaze's Desert Sun and Sally Hansens Lacy lilac, both are going to be great for summer and spring! 

same as before
Now i found the Sally Hansen polishes alot easier to apply as they have a square brush which disributes the polish evenly over the nails, i found they were chip proof up to week if i applied the double duty polish as a bass and top coat. The colours are true and you need to coats at the most. I was very pleased with the products and for $48 paso which is $3.40 in the us and australia. However i know they are more expensive in Australia and for that reason i will be stocking up! Though i was thuraly impressed i would recomend never to shake the bottles before you are about to use them as then there will be bubbles that will come to the surface when the polish is drying and that is the same for all nail polishes including China Glaze. All though the brush is not as monkey proof as the Sally Hansen's, the formula was smooth and highly user friendly, the colours are truly amazing in this range and i doubt i will ever stray from these lady friendly products! At the affordable price of $54 paso, $3.80 for US and AUS i am very disapointed as i know they are very uncommon in Australia so i will also be stocking up as my falangies love the stuff and stay chip proof for a week also! I am so pleased with both these products! 
i hope you enjoyed reading my thoughs, please comment down below with any questions!

Oh, como me encanta Auguas!

So as you know i did a small update on my movement to Aguascalientes Mexico and i failed to document my time there, however i do have a few snaps to show you! And some news! so today i will be leaving once again to go back to Aguascalientes as often when i'm in mexico i tend to travel to and from San luis Potosi and Aguas. This time i will deffinatly be keeping my blog and youtube in the loop as i will be doing a week of vlogging. Day one will be uploaded today so see above! and there should be my little adventures popping up every day! I had a wonderful time last time with my cousin Katia and Paulina and i ended up staying an extra week! that was why there was no posts for so long until now. The first weekend i was there it was the Faria De San Marcos, the biggest bar in Mexico they say as people pile into the centre and fill the main streets, with music dancing and ALOT of alcohol! Its the only three weeks in the year where you are allowed to drink on the streets and people go crazy! clubs open their doors and music is everywhere you go! it was amazing! See the photo bellow that i stole from the website.
So as you can see its quite busy and i did struggle a little, everyone holds hands and pulls each other through! it was so much fun. Bellow is a photo of me with a few buddys in out. WARNING! in some of these photos i look shocking as the camera washed me out!
our friend, my cousin paulina and me looking shocking!
me and the girls and a boy hahahaha kidding hes my friends boyfriend and Shine!

As it was party week we went out alot! i only have a few snaps, however we went to parties too! The first day i got there Katia was doing a dance performance, it was very very funny as she hates dancing and so she spent the whole time looking at what the other girls were doing and trying to copy them. Here we are, before it started, her costume is so cute!  
Me, Katia, Paulina and our friend Katia haha common name!
One of the things i found us frequently doing was going for coffee. My mother had bought us all matching dresses! i know very embarrassing and the worst thing is they are those terrible bintang ones! When i showed the girls their presents they loved it, so i agreed to wear the dress as a top so went out yes i left the house in it! but it was fun, hahaha. 
Katia, me and Paulina. Rocking the bingtang!
In the last couple of days before i left we went out for lunch and had an awesome time chilling by our friends pool! it was a nice end to my stay so, thats stayed in my mind and i will be going back today!!!!!!  


So that is it for all my holiday snaps so far! look above and you should see a blog post very very soon! i hope you enjoyed! and dont forget to check out my Youtube channel! have an awesome day guys and i will talk to you all very soon!

organicasm

Hello all, so i am very much one of those people that will watch a movie, read something or hear someone talking about an interesting topic and automaticly be persauded by what they say. i will be incredibly inspired at first to do all i can for that one particular cause and then after a couple of weeks something clicks and the passion i once had fades and the meaning is lost to me. However, i have littrally just this second finished watching a documentary called food inc, if you havent watched it i advise you too as it gives a great insight into the way the food is produced in America. All though the documentary only focuses on the united states,

Traveling in style

Hey everyone! So im going to be very busy during the next couple of days and so though i will still be blogging i wont have time to film unless i vlog, though i currently dont have a camera which is extremely annoying!  And as im in mexico everything takes a long time to happen! You say we will leave at 3.30 an hour later your getting ready to leave! Which brings me to my initial topic of being busy, i am currently sipping a beer in the back of a rather nice car on ma way with my cousin paulina to party with our rather beautiful and extremely fun mutual cousin katia! I recieved a message before i left saying to be dressed and ready to go to a party as soon as we get there. The whole situation is extremely exciting, however last time i was with this blue eyed beauty i drank so excessively  i woke up in the night and vomited all over my clothes, once we had all awoke in the morning we all sat on our bed having a chat when i realized what that faint sick smell was in the room. I leaned over and caught a glimps of the massacred clothes, shoes and floor. it was enough to set me off for  the rest of the day. Anyway, we always manage to have fun together and get into trouble some way or another. Its going to be interesting to see how the three of us work together! I will keep you updated along the way! With thoughts and love beanqueen xx

Here are some photos from last time i went!

New years eve!!!!
