Fabulous Nails #44

Why oh why do Sundays roll around so quickly? This weekend has been a really special one for me as I've been up in Leeds visiting my family and celebrating my Dad's birthday! Whatever you're up to, I hope you're having a lovely time too!


Today's nail look is Rimmel Cocktail Colour in Hawaiian Punch. This was something I picked up as part of a 3 for 2 offer and I was certain in the store that this was a red nail polish. However when I had it on my nails it became increasingly obvious that this was in fact a pink polish - which would be fine were I not such a massive hater of the colour pink!


Although it is pink, it is a super bright and pretty summer colour. It was opaque after only two coats, and lasted around 3-4 days with no chips. When it did chip, it chipped bad but by then I was just relieved to have an excuse to get this darn pink atrocity off my nails! Definitely not a nail colour for me, but I'm sure most other girls would love it.

You can buy the Rimmel Cocktail Colors for £3.99 from Boots or Superdrug.

What do you think? Is this red or pink??

Accidental Superdrug Haul - feat Rimmel & MUA


Wow, another haul post, how original. What can I say, I've been haulin' a lot lately! When I was back home for a week of R&R with my family I ended up spending money quite thoughtlessly, justifying it each time by telling myself "this is my holiday this year, it's cheaper than going abroad". I'm not so sure about that now I've surveyed the damage to my credit card, but still. Here's a small haul that resulted from a random stop at Superdrug..


I picked up two MUA items, despite vowing never to give them my money again. I would say that I'm weak-willed, but I'm not (being vegan requires a strong will!) I'm just a sucker for a promotional offer! The MUA Undress Me Too eyeshadow palette was on offer for £3, and the MUA Undress Your Skin Illuminating Foundation was on offer for £3 (HERE). Stay tuned for reviews. You can buy these products online via MUA (HERE and HERE) or instore at Superdrug.


I also picked up these three Rimmel nail varnishes - now, I know what you're thinking: more nail varnish?! I really do not need any more polishes to add to my collection, but I really wanted to get the Blue Eyed Girl polish after spying it on someone's nails, and I love the Precious Stones I got for my birthday (Diamond Dust - post HERE) and wanted to try the red one too!


These are the shades I picked up - the Cocktail Colour polish in Hawaiian Punch was a total random impulse buy, as they were on 3 for the price of 2 I had to get another item to get the offer.  The Cocktail Colour is available for £3.99 (HERE), the Precious Stones is £3.99 (HERE) and the 60 seconds is £3.69 (HERE).

Have you made any accidental purchases recently?
