</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">Boots 17 has just added The Candy Collection to their Lasting Fix range of Nail Polishes and i think these 3 colours (there are more) are perfect for the Spring. From left to right we have</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">Mint Choc Chip - the most gorgeous pastel green (with a touch of blue?) and my favourite of the 3</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">Fairy Cake - A really pretty girlie mid pink that isn't too pale but isn't too bright either </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">Lemon Sherbet - This really does look like Lemon Sherbet! Yummy! But the colour does change slightly the more coats you use</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">Here's what they look like on (apologises for blurry photos).</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Mint Choc Chip</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">So the colours are gorgeous but what about the actual nail polishes themselves? </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">I needed to apply 2-3 thin coats of each colour, as the first coat went on very unevenly - lots of streaks The second coat was usually enough to even out the coverage, but sometimes i needed a third.(you could try one thick coat but it takes ages to dry) This leads me to the two bug bears i have with this product</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">t.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">1) The Brush: it's like a really cheap paintbrush that leaves streaks all over your wall. I find the bristles stick together and don't really spread out over the nails, and sometimes shed (only the odd bristle here and there, but most annoying) Overall, I really hate the brush</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">2) The size of the Product: You get 8mls for £2.99. Yes it's cheap, but it's not a lot of product and if you use 2-3 coats each time, you could go through these very quickly. But it's a great size for travelling or if you never wear the same colour twice in a row</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"> Although i kept forgetting to put on a topcoat, the polish had a very slight shine to it, which i quite liked. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">It also does what it claims to do. It lasts for UP TO 5 days. I'm on day 5 and have 3 nails that haven't chipped at all, some have but only slightly (easily touched up) and only one that chipped badly. With a good topcoat it could last even longer. I should emphasise i applied thin coats and made sure each was dry before applying another one.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">To sum up then, i think these are gorgeous colours which are perfect for the spring. Although the polish does go on unevenly, with 2-3 coats you get really good coverage, with a slight shine, that lasts for UP TO 5 days without chipping.and i would definitely recommend them.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br />

</div>This is the look i wore yesterday when i went to get my hair coloured. I wanted a neutral look that would work with the red & darker brown i was having put it (which doesn't show in pictures but looks sooo nice in real life)<div> I used the day smoke colpors from the Too Faced Smokey Eyes Palette,but didn't follow the instructions, just did my own thing. I absouletly looove this look and will be doing a tutorial for it - it's super quick and easy. Hope you like it, it's one i'm going to be wearing a lot more often. The pictures were taken before i had my hair done.I took some pictures afterwards but the colours didn't show up:( so will try to take some more and post them tomorrow. </div><div>Thanks to everyone following my blog i really appreciate your support :) </div><div>Take care peeps</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

Some of you may be wondering why i have changed the name of my blog. Basically it's because i wanted my youtube channel and blog to have the same title - to make it easier for people to remember and find me. When i first started my blog i wasn't able to have the name, so choose My Bargain Beauty Blog instead. But to be honest i was never entirety happy with it. So i am sooooo glad i can finally use Me and My Make Up. But let me know what you guys thinkmeandmymakeuphttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11208661259634716614noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-392164368311725490.post-34355925886436223152010-03-19T01:59:00.000+00:002010-03-19T01:59:23.909+00:00Guess which beauty guru i met yesterday?Well after my shopping spree (see previous post) me and my hubby went to grab a bit of lunch. Now this was a major achievement as we haven't been able to have a meal out (due to panic attacks) for 2-3 years. But i'd had my hair done and was feeling quite good. so we decided to take advantage of it and popped in Costa Coffee. No sooner had we sat down with our lunch,did i notice a rather familiar face heading towards the next table. After a few surreptitious glances, just to be sure (during which my husband thought i'd lost the plot) i finally managed to pluck up the courage to say hello to the lovely, professional make up artist, youtube beauty guru and blogger ( also a model in some of Pixiwoo's tutorials) TANYA BURR aka PIXI2WOO.) It was slightly surreal to say the least and although i kept the conversation brief (i didn't want to intrude on her lunch) i am pleased to say she seemed just as lovely in person as she does in her videos.And just as pretty. I must admit i did sit there thinking 'what does my make up look like, is my eyeliner half way down my face etc lol.<br />

I haven't been up to doing any videos lately so thought i would do a review here instead. I picked up these gorgeous nail varnishes from the Factory Shop about a month ago. I'd never heard of Pure before but fell in love with the colours and they were all only £1 each! , The shades are Bright Green and Bright Pink. (Personally i don't think they are very bright, but hey that's just me) both are shot through with gold.</span><br />

The brush covered most of my nail and gave an even finish. I could have got away with one coat but did two for a deeper colour. The first coat dried very quickly, the second took a bit longer but was still pretty quick.. The finish had a very slight sheen, not at all glossy, which was a bit disappointing as i love glossy nails. But thats soon remedied by using a glossy topcoat. I wore the pink one (sorry i deleted the photo doh!) without a topcoat , and it didn't chip for 3 days which i was impressed with.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;"><br />

But i'm going back to The Factory Shop next week and hope to pick up some more for £1. Hope you enjoyed this, will be back with another review very soon. Till then take care</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

I do apologise for not posting anything for ages. My depression is bad at the moment and am currently in the process of changing medication - a long and difficult process. So my motivation to do anything is almost none existent.<br />
But enough of that, i have bought a few things since my last post and will be telling you all about them very soon. I will also be doing some in depth reviews of drug store foundations, mascaras eye shadows, lip glosses and nail varnish. I will try and swatch products, but for some reason my camera is playing up so they may be a bit blurry.<br />
Well that's it for now as i am about to go do a video for youtube and take some pictures for my next blog post - hopefully tonight<br />
Till then, byeeeeeeeeeeeemeandmymakeuphttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11208661259634716614noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-392164368311725490.post-1300337518045404962009-12-07T12:06:00.000+00:002009-12-07T12:06:25.765+00:00Feeling sorry for myselfWell i had to go to the dentist again this morning. I am petrified of the dentist and was having really bad panic attacks yesterday and this morning. I had a filling and two, yes TWO teeth extracted (extracted - thats a very threatning word) My dentist is a lovely lady who is really good with nervous people.My hubby held my my hand throughout. Unfortunately i gripped it so hard i actually broke it..........kidding! I did grip it so hard that it went numb though.The anasthetic is wearing off and it's getting painful<br />
The dentist said i cant do housework etc for today and maybe tomorrow. How will i cope! lol. I cant have anything hot to eat or drink which is a pain as it is very cold at the moment so of course all i want is a nice cup of tea and a hot meal :-( Oh well at least i have food, which is more than a lot of other people have, so i will stop moaning now.<br />
I tried to do a video last night but wasn't happy with it. Then i discovered that movie maker doesnt work properly on this computer anyway, which i am really fed up about.But hopefully my computer will be sorted out soon.<br />
Well thats about it for now, take care my lovliesmeandmymakeuphttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11208661259634716614noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-392164368311725490.post-72751517963659748142009-12-04T21:53:00.000+00:002009-12-04T21:53:28.896+00:00Computer TroubleWell i am feeling a bit glum at the moment. Have had a bad week due to severe panic attacks and my depression is getting worse. Will be changing medication soon, which is a long, drawn out (and scary) process. And to top it all off, my computer has stopped working. We cant get anyone to look at it till middle of next week so for the forseeable future i will be sharing a computer with my hubby. This wouldnt be so bad if the computer wasnt like something out of the last century. It is soooo slow and half the time doesnt work properly.Also my husband has to do a lot of university work on it. So i will have limited access to it,This means i wont be able to update my blog or upload videos on youtube as often as i would like too. Well i better go now as hubby needs to do some uni stuff. Take care guys and hopefully will be back soonmeandmymakeuphttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11208661259634716614noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-392164368311725490.post-21844627676253845462009-11-21T12:38:00.001+00:002009-11-21T12:41:18.522+00:00<div style="text-align: center;"><br />

She wanted people to do a very colourful look. Now i love bright colours and glitter so i decided to incorperrate the two. I had a lot of fun doing this look, but it was about one in the morning and i was soooo tired when i did the video, so i looked & sounded half asleep<br />

Most of us will have known a bully at some point in our life. Maybe they bullied us,a friend or family member.Or maybe we were the bully or hung around with them. Maybe it was verbal abuse, physical, mental emotional or a combination. Maybe the bullying didn't last long - or it went on for months even years.It could even be happening right now. It could have happened at school,work,home.<br />
Or on the internet.<br />
Sadly cyber bullying is on the increase at an alarming rate, especially on youtube because you can be totally annoymous.Now i just want to emphasize that i'm not talking about someone who has a different opinion to you, or the odd nasty comment like 'you are fat' etc.Thats a hater comment and all gurus (even the top ones) get them. The best thing to do is block them and dont respond. I am talking about people who will not leave you alone. They leave constant abuse on your channel,videos and even private messages.I have experienced it on youtube. It was so bad i had to report them to youtube to remove their channel - which was dedicated to hating me (i am not exagerating) and encouraged others to hate me. To say i was upset is an understatement. I cried and nearly deleated my channel there and then. But my hubby was very supportive (and angry) and i decided to make a video about it instead, I had lots of lovely encouraging comments that helped me move on.<br />
Lately i have been getting some abusive comments (and messages) again. So i did another video about it.<br />
<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tp8efcqbSdQ">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tp8efcqbSdQ</a> <br />
This time though, i was able to tell people about a new channel on youtube called beating the bully <br />
<a href="http://www.youtube.com/user">http://www.youtube.com/user</a> <br />
This channel offers support to anyone being bullied. So i thought i'd blog about it too, in case anyone reading this is being bullied. <br />
I just want to say thanks to everyone who has left encouraging comments on my channel, videos and messages in response to my video I do appreciate it and encourage you to support victims of bullying however you can.<br />

I looooove Dr Who and think David Tennant is the best Dr yet. I just don't think anyone will come close. He manages to express so much through his eyes, especially sadness. This particular episode was darker than normal - which i liked.It was also extremely sad. I mean heart breakingly sad, as we see him falling apart at the end of the episode. David's last appearance as the Dr will be sometime over Christmas (i think) and rumour has it that Rose,Martha, Donna, Sarah Jane & Captain Jack will be joining David on his last adventure, i hope it's true! I just wish he wasn't leaving. The thing that really sets him apart (this is just my opinion) is how he can switch from comedy to drama in a split second. Thats really hard to do. I <br />
Well i'll leave it there for now.<br />

So i just need your address and i will post your prize tomorrow. Sorry to those who didn't win.Don't be too sad, i'll be having another one soon. Also i will be opening my 1000 subscriber contest on youtube very soon Take care and thanks to everyone who enteredmeandmymakeuphttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11208661259634716614noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-392164368311725490.post-27405343187839498962009-10-31T22:39:00.001+00:002009-10-31T22:40:41.926+00:00I'm being brainwashed byThe X Factor!Well i have been feeling ill and fed up all day. I really wanted to do some make up videos but my neck and face is still swollen so that was a no-go.<br />
Anyway, as usual i settled down to watch The X Factor. Now i have a love/hate relationship with this show. I often spend the entire show moaning to my husband (who is soooooo not interested) yet i still watch it! Tonight was 'rock night' and i cant say i was impressed by any of them in particular (what the heck was Cheryl wearing?) <br />
Then at the very end, John & Edward came on.<br />
This is where the brainwashing happens, because i do think they should never have got through to the finals.However, i kinda look forward to seeing what they are going to come up with (at least they go for it, instead of just walking up and down or just standing there) Tonight they looked like extras from the teenage version of The Matrix, with some very dodgy eyeliner on. They sung a Queen song 'We Will Rock You'. Now i'm not a huge Queen fan, but even i thought this was not a good song choice. They sang some bits out of tune, missed out some of the words. So why oh why did i enjoy it? The only conclusion i can come up with is The X Factor has found a way to mess with my mind (as if it's not messed up enough already) So i will no doubt be watching the result show tomorrow, screaming at the tv if they get through again. Then next Saturday i will sit there glued to the tv saying - oh John and Edward were quite good tonight.....and the cycle will continue..........meandmymakeuphttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11208661259634716614noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-392164368311725490.post-76952725073165383662009-10-30T11:17:00.001+00:002009-10-30T11:20:47.034+00:00Feeling BlueI am feeling very fed up and sorry for myself as i write this. I went to the doctors and dentist yesterday, to find the cause of my swollen neck and face.Turns out i have an infected tooth, which is causing the swelling (not to mention the agony when i try and swallow) so am on antibiotics and have to go back next Friday. I have to say my dentist is a lovely lady who is very understanding about my panic attacks and fear of dentists.<br />
<br />
Anyway, i really want to do some videos for my youtube channel but am a bit self consious of the swelling.There's one video in particular i want to do.It's a contest celebrating getting 1000 subscribers yay!!!!!!. It's not a huge contest as i have bought everything myself and will be paying for the shipping (which could be very expensive as it will be an international contest)) but the prizes are nice. I am hoping to add another couple of bits but that depends on money.<br />
<br />
I have re-launched the Migi Nail Art contest on youtube. The rules are less restrictive, so you don't have to own a migi nail art pen to enter now. So if any lovely people want to enter here is the link.<br />
