Glitter Me Pretty: Face of the Night, Birthdays

Hey there Glittersphere

So the other night was my Mum's and my Brothers birthdays. As usual i took plenty of photos and i thought a would share my makeup and hair for the night.



For my hair i used my new BS Sassoon clampless curler. I am in love with this curler, the curls reminded me so much of Taylor Swifts hair and i've always loved her hair.

Face: i used my Revlon Photoready Foundation and concealer. for my eyes i primed with UDPP and used my Crush Cosmetics Neutrals pallete. i wanted to keep to a golden look. Because i just wouldn't be Glittermanda if i didn't use Glitter i applied my Inglot body sparkles in number 56. Its a glitter with a bronzey golden reflex.  My Mascara is Max Factors False lash effect. On my cheeks i used macs Well Dressed, and for lips i used my new favourite lipstick, loreal Pretty Peach.

A few of the products mentioned i plan on doing reviews for and/or lots of swatches.

Until Next Time
XOXO

Glitter Me Pretty: Review BYS Mood Changing polish



Product: BYS colour changing mood polish
Price: $4.95 + depending on location
Available From: Gloss and Kmart
My Rating: 4 out of 5

I was a bit skeptical about this polish when I picked it up. I thought it was a great concept but I just didn't see it working.

So last night I finally tested it. Much to my surprised the polish works! When it's cold it goes a pastel purple colour, and when it's hot it goes a pastel pink colour.



Colour when hot



Colour when cold.

The polish dries to a matte consistency, easily rectified with a glossy top coat. I also found this polish dried very fast. It's the first time I've painted my nails in a long time that I haven't needed to use my drip dry. On the downside, The polish did take 4 coats before it was opaque. A small price to pay for a pretty cool concept.

There are a few different colours available and I will be picking them all up.

Until Next Time
XOXO

Glitter Me Pretty: NOTD

Hey there Glittersphere

just a really quick Nail of the Day. Today i have OPI The One That Got Away on my nails, from the Katy Perry collection. I love all of the polishes from the collection, they all girly and very sparkly.


The one that got away, is a pinky red colour, one of my favorite colours to wear during winter. It has a lot of glitter in it. I couldn't seem to get it to photograph very well. The photo above is the best i could get. Now that its dried i want to put teenage dream over top. maybe next time.

Until Next Time
XOXO

Glitter Me Pretty: Revlon Grow Lucious Review

Hey there Glittershere

Today I headed off to work in the waterproof version of my favourite mascara, Revlon's Grow Lucious. After comming home I've decided I wanted to share my thoughts. (photos to come soon, I'm writing this blog from my phone)

Product: Revlon Grow Luscious Waterproof
Price: around $22 (depending on where you purchase)
Available: Any chemist, Big W, KMart and Target
My Rating: 3 out of 5

I love the normal version of this mascara, but I cannot wear it to work as it runs when I get hot. So, I purchased the waterproof version. The first few times I wore it to work I used it on both my top and bottom lashes, I noticed at the end of the day I had black smudges underneath my eyes. I thought maybe it's just from using it on my bottom lashes so I stopped using it there. Today i used the mascara only on my top lashes, while on a break I happened to glance in a mirror, I had the biggest black smudges under my eyes, it honestly looked like I had two black eyes. I thought that maybe I rubbed my eyes, but being that I was using a waterproof mascara there should be no smudges!

I am very dissapointed in this mascara. It does not work as a waterproof mascara. The only reason that I scored it has high as I did is that I still love the formulation. As a regular non-waterproof mascara it is a wonderful product. I will not be using this product again as a waterproof product.

Until Next Time
XOXO
