At Home Gel Nails | Sensationail Starter Kit Review & Pictures

Hi Girlies ♥,

I've got another little review for you today on a recent purchase of mine ..

This little kit is just brilliant!

I had my acrylic nails removed 3 months ago and my nails are still so brittle that I keep getting gel's applied just to stop them splitting. This costs me £30 each time which soon adds up!

So, I paid £60 for this little kit which I know sounds expensive but technically it's the price of getting your nails done twice professionally but this kit contains up to 10 manicures which works out so much cheaper (£6 a time).

The Kit comes with all you need and it's actually so much easier to use than I first thought. I picked mine up in 'raspberry wine'. To be honest I thought the colour would be a little darker than it was but it's still pretty. I'd say it's a dark barbie pink with some shimmers in it.

I'm so pleased with this little kit and the application was pretty easy, I would really recommend this is you're into gel nails. 

Payday Haul

Hey Girlies, 

So i popped out with my boyfriend for a little bit of Christmas shopping on Saturday. Oh my god was it busy!! I ended getting a few goodies for myself too - as it was payday!

 

L-R L'oreal Kids Tangle Tamer - Boots - £2.19

TRES'emme Liquid Gold Argan Oil - £6.99

Tangle Teezer - Boots £10.99

Soap And Glory Glad Hair Day - Boots - £5.50

So, I picked up the Loreal Kids Tangle Tamer which is for kids yes but it still works on adults! And also the Tangle teezer which was on my last wish list, my hair has been getting really tangled recently due to ole windiness outside. I also picked up the Tresemme Liquid Gold hair oil as my last one ran out and I luuuurve this stuff. 

Lastly for my hair I picked up the Soap & Glory Glad Hair Day which is for Full, Frizzy or Fried Hair - sounds like mine! It's meant to detangle, gloss & shine, smooth and strengthen your hair. I used this this morning and it is good! It smells lovely - really fruity and it did do a good job of detangling. This worked really well with my tangle spray and tangle teezer too! No more tangles whoo hoo! (Do i want to say tangled any more??) 

Note: if you have been debating whether to get the tangled tamer - get it!! 

 
 
 

L-R Makeup Bag - Boots £4

Maybelline Fit Me Powder - Boots £5.99

RimmelAcandal Eyes Kohl Eyeliner - Boots £3.99

Maybelline Color Tatoo in 'Permenant taupe' -Boots £4.99

 

Firstly i picked up this cute little bag to chuck all my everyday makeup into, I also picked up the Rimmel Scandal eyes eyeliner in nude which i have wanted for a while now. It really is a nice soft eyeliner and great for my NC20 skin, it really tones down the redness on my waterline. The Fit me powder caught my eye, I got this in shade 125 which is the second lightest. I'm not blown away by this powder if I'm honest as I love my MAC MSFN but this a quarter of the price so i cant really moan.

 

I've seen a lot of posts on the colour tatoo eyeshadows recently and I'm really impressed! I picked it up in permanent taupe and its a nice matt light brown, taupe colour. I find that it's actually perfect for filling in my eyebrows and it lasts literally all day! I will be picking these up in a few other colours - fo sho.

 

 L-R Hair bits - Newlook £1.50 each. Soap and Glory Face Massage Mini Mitt - Boots £4.

Revlon Colorstay Nail Varnish in 'Velvet Rope' £7.99

I really love this colour! Revlon say that this is meant to give a gel-like shine, which i agree with and it dries so quickly. I recommend these, they're lovely to use.

I picked this up as it looks quite gentle which i prefer for my sensitive skin, I haven't used it yet but I'm looking forward to it!

Did you get any goodies at the weekend? ♥
