ImPress Press-On Manicure | Review

Hello everyone!

A while ago I found some of these false nails in my beauty drawer and decided it was due time to try them out. I won these in a giveaway last summer so they don't seem to be in stores any more, However Boots have a range of them! They retail between £6.99 and £8.99, depending on the style and where you buy them.

I've never worn false nails before, so this was quite the experiment! I done these on Thursday early evening, and they lasted until Monday night - very impressed with these! They're meant to last for 'up to a week' so to have got four a bit days worth out of them is really good in my opinion.

They lasted a number of showers, working on the tills, ridiculous heat and a BBQ - and I didn't have any trouble with them either. My natural nails are usually a lot longer than this, so these didn't make things harder or difficult at all. I actually had to cut my own nails down just so these covered them up properly!

Overall, I love these and will be buying more of these in different styles for the summer! Have you tried these out at all and what did you think? Let me know! Hope you have a great day and keep safe :)

Ali Express Haul #2

Hello everyone!

Today is a little haul of some goodies I bought from AliExpress! I am obsessed with this site and have found some really cute stationary bits and bobs since I began searching the site. I've had about eight orders off the site, some bulk buys and others just single items, but thought I'd share this one with you!

Toothpaste Rollers

Nail Stampers

Brush | Sponge | Dustpan

Hair Sponge Rollers

The site is generally all in USD and once that was converted into GBP, this whole haul came to less than £10. I bought one of everything that I liked, and will then buy more if I like them (which I totes do!) As these are shipped by China Mail, it took about 12 days to reach me, which I don't mind waiting - however I have had to wait over a month for one order before, so be patient!

I bought all of this from the same seller and you don't always get to chose the designs that you get. Each item comes in a variety, and not always quite like in the images, so double check the product descriptions before buying. 

Have you bought anything off AliExpress and did you like the service? It's a bit like Ebay! Hope you have a great day and keep safe :)

Max Factor False Lash Effect Mascara | Review

Hello everyone!

I love mascara more than any other beauty product, and this is a new find of mine! I picked this up when it was on sale a few months ago and ended up buying it again for £10.99 in Boots a few weeks ago and decided to give it a review! There is also a waterproof version available which I also got, but have not tried out yet!

This is also the first Max Factor product that I've tried and I love it! The spoolie is perfect at getting all the lashes and gives a nice even coating of the mascara. It doesn't clump either which is perfect and it does make my lashes look more dense. I've never worn false lashes, so can't compare the two, but this does a wonderful job.

Definitely recommending this and would buy it for a third time! Have you tried this at all, and what are your thoughts on it? Let me know! Hope you have a great day and keep safe :)
