The reason why I am doing this post is

 

1. Because I love this dress.

2. I got new nail polishes I couldn’t wait to play with.

And 3. Because collection 2000 have an amazing palette out to buy at the moment!

 

Right so I will start off with my nails this is the bit I would get done before I even started to do my make up so I will do it in order of me getting ready for a night out with my girl .

 

I have used a selection of nail polishes -

 

1. As always I started with a clear base coat.

2. I put 2 coats of Rimmel polish in Black

3. Used in a colour selection from Orly's Nail art selection to paint the strips across the nail - I chose silver, purple, blue and hot pink :O)

 

 

Next the Make-up.

 

This is a Palette available to purchase in any shop that stocks Rimmel Products- it’s a great little accessory to any make-up box and would fit in with a large number of themes.

Some of the colours apply better than others, and you will find that when applying not only will you need to put on a few layers but that also you may find flakes of the colour on your cheeks after applying ( easily removed with a big blusher brush)

 

The colour selection available is Yellow, Purple, Emerald Green, Pink, Bright Blue, Lime Green, Mid Green, and Dark Blue & Black

Its a bargin as well at under £5 you just cant say no! - this is something we would deffinatly use to creat the looks for our next range photo shoot!

Right well now you have gorgeous nails and make up to die for its time to dress up and accessorise!

The dress i have chosen is of course Rio Black - which has zig zags in Multi colours = AMAZING

i have searched the internet high and low for accessories i would use and buy to complete my look!

I most certainly was when I did my nails; you may have gathered I LOVE painting my nails in fun ways to match the contagious collection so why should this pot be any different right? 

So today I have decided to channel the wild range so anything animal print really! It was fun, quick and most of all easy to do! This is the first time I’ve done it and I’m pleasantly surprised! I have decided to follow the green variation of our animal print collection and used a BYS green polish – again pleasantly surprised with this one good application and not too shabby drying time! Allow for using a base coat first!  It protects your nails! Then follow it up with 1-2 coats of your chosen colour (depends on coverage)

 

Then I used an Orly striping polish – available to purchase on eBay at a pretty good price. I used black and I just did small sweeps varying in length from side to the centre.

 

Leave to fully dry and apply a top coat (which extends the wear)

 

And Voila! Sexy animal print nails to match your favourite wild design!

My love this week has to be the Orly FX gel nails... I know I know everyone has this super lasting polish out now BUT I have always LOVED Orly polish's I believe they are long lasting and have great coverage and in fact rarely chip!

So after a long old time developing this fantastic product Orly have finally released their Gel FX range! EEEEK this almost causes me to fall over and get damp knickers! I apologise for my crudeness but it’s just that good!

 

Within this mind blowing collection they have carefully selected 32 Shades matched to the Top-Selling Lacquer

 

Orly boasts how GelFX manicure system is durable and provides the wearer with a chip free manicure that is set to last for about 2 weeks. Alongside this they state that it will hold its shine and has an EASY removal system!

 

My favorite part of Orly is that they have perfectly matched each GelFX shade to their original polish collection allowing you have the perfectly matched Mani Pedi combo! AMAZING!

 

I have been lucky enough to try out the GelFX manicure and was pleasantly surprised with the results, never having tried a gel manicure polish before I was dubious about the results and the process but with half the curing time of a standard gel manicure it was defiantly hitting my 5* target.

 

“Gel FX is the best of both worlds. It delivers top selling ORLY shades in a gel formula with longer lasting shine and wear than anything else on the market today,” said ORLY founder and President and CEO Jeff Pink.

 

The whole process used to create this flawless look has been carefully produced to ensure that it is infused with vitamins that build up strength fright from the first coat! Antioxidant vitamins A and E help to promote healthy nails, while pro-vitamin B5 protects the structure of the natural nails! And once the nails are set you’re treated to Orly's special cuticle oil which conditions and moisturizes your cuticles and gives you nail to die for!

 

I have included a shade card taken from the Orly website so you can see the diverse shades currently available!www.orlybeauty.com

 

I had my Orly FX manicure done by the very talented Stephanie Allen, She runs her own company called Pure Indulgence – and it is just that

 

She never fails to impress me with her talents, and offers a wide range of services as well as an Orly GelFX Manicure

 

Her price list states that to grab yourself a GelFX polish set will only set you back a mere £24! And for a minimum of 2 weeks wear I think that’s worth it!

 

Feel free to check out Pure indulgence’s Facebook page!

Stephanie offers a full range of beauty treatments from her home based, fully equip beauty room, which provides a relaxed atmosphere that caters for individual beauty needs.

 

Within her pricelist she offers a large selection of massages, facials, Marvel lash extensions, waxing, mani, pedi’sand much much more!
