The Pink Ribbon| Breast Cancer Awareness Week

Hello again :)

So today was a major fail on the design front... it kind of worked, but not really.

In short, I salute all of you who do ribbon designs! They aren't easy to do at all!

Anyway, on with the show!

How You Can Raise Awareness

Give money to cancer research charities, such as Cancer Research UK, Breast Cancer Campaign, Breakthrough and Marie Curie.

Tuesday's Design- The Pink Ribbon

I feel like this is the 'typical' design that people use for supporting a breast cancer cure, featuring the pale pink ribbon.

Let's just say that a dotting tool was soooo not the tool that should be used to draw the ribbon. Won't be making that mistake again!

So everybody, my biggest apologies for the mess that is supposed to be a ribbon on my ring finger there. Shan't happen again!

(I'm only showing one hand because the other one is extremely bad- even the dots look bad...)

I'm going to assume that the messiness of the design is because I did it at around midnight. Woopsies!

Polishes Used:

Leighton Denny- "Spoil Me" (base colour)
Rimmel London Long Lasting Colour- "Baby Pink" (ribbon/spots)

Have some more pictures, anyway!

I guess the ribbon is the most common design for this sort of thing because it's a recognised symbol to show that you care...

Anyway! Check out the first post if you missed it! (Clickety Click)

And keep your eye out for tomorrow's!

The Random Sunday Post!

Hello everyone! This is a super quick random post just to say I'm back and also what will be coming up this week! So, I'm still due a Blue Nails post for the British Nail Blogger's Colour Me Crazy Challenge- this will be up tomorrow instead of a Book/Lifestyle post! From Wednesday, the normal posts will resume, so you can expect a Pink Mani on this day for this week's challenge nails! Then on Thursday, it's A Level results day, which means a lot of nervous stressy things to sort out, and I may not have time to write up a post in time for Friday- but I will definitely try, and also update you all in my potential University place! If there is a post on Friday, it'll be a typical naily post- probably a swatch of something! And that is all I think you need to know! Good Luck to anyone else getting results on Thursday! ~Rachel

Your Guide to Barry M Gelly's!

Finally , the time has come for the ever-promised "Barry M Gelly Polishes Review & Swatch" Post! YAY! Now, now, settle down, settle down, and prepare yourself for an image-heavy post! Panorama View? Yes please... Okay, so that picture isn't too great. But there's the colours that between us (Me and Rhian) have in the Gelly range. We're only missing "Grapefruit" I think...

Wail: Birthday Blue!

Hi everyone! So it was my 18th birthday yesterday, hence why this post is a little late! But I have a fun post for you all to enjoy :) Introducing to you- my birthday mani! I love love love these polishes- I think I've only used them once each, but wow, they're just amazing and I definitely need to use them more. Apologies for the little bit of tip-wear, it's been on since Saturday (so, 5 days between application and the picture taking!) so the wear on these polishes is actually very good! The first polish is Rimmel London's Salon Pro by Kate, in the shade "Britpop" which is such a fun name! The colour is also absolutely stunning, it's such a rich blue, but is kinda bright at the same time and a borderline dark teal colour. The brush for application is also pretty wide, which makes coverage super easy in only one to two strokes! There's another bonus too- the polish is very shiny even before a top coat! Totally recommend this polish, a

Nail Parade!
