Summer Wants

Here are some products that I'm dying to get my hands on this summer.

St Tropez Gradual Tan Everyday Mousse - I used the instant tan equivalent of this and was highly impressed (if I looked past the way I actually applied it - I'll have to get tips from a tutorial before my next go!). When I go away at the end of June I don't want to go looking like a bed sheet and so I believe this is the answer - a helpful start that won't be as in your face as an instant tan. It's also currently on offer at Boots!

Revlon Parfumerie Scented Nail Enamel - I love nail polish, but scented nail polish even more! I think these colours will look gorgeous in these summer months and will go with basically anything in my wardrobe - not only that they're bottles are adorable and I've heard so many people rave about them! I've picked out the colours Lime Basil, Ginger Melon and Apricot Nectar, as these with provide a nice burst of colour to any outfit and will smell amazing.

Benefit 'They're Real!' Mascara - I've heard so many good things about this mascara and I can't wait to try it out for myself and I think it's about time!

Clarins Radiance-Plus Golden Glow Booster - Whatever I try and do fake tan will never turn my face the same shade as the rest of my body and believe me when I say I've tried everything! I was beginning to admit defeat until a friend of mine recently brought this product (she wrote a review here) which is a specific tanning product for your face and had nothing but praise for this product and I'm hoping I will too.

Benefit Hoola Bronzer - The bronzer I am currently in possession of has a 'sparkly' finish that oxidizes horrendously throughout the day turning me into something I can only liken to an Oompa Loompa. This Benefit bronzer claims to be the best selling bronzer for 5 years with no sparkle and no shine - which is exactly what I need. I've read nothing but great review on this product and so I'm excited to try it.

Have you tried any of these products? What are your summer wants?

Little Duck - Tanya Burr Nail Polish

Tanya Burr Nail Polish - Little Duck (ignore my disgusting fingers)

I originally said I'd post this sooner than I am, so apologies for that, but here is my review of Tanya Burr's new range of Nail Polishes (I reviewed her lipgloss in Vampire Kiss here). I've been a subscriber of Tanya Burr's for ages, and was super excited when I learned she would be releasing a line of lipglosses and nail polishes. When they were released I brought one of each, and oh my god wasn't that decision difficult! 

There are 10 nail polishes to chose from in Tanya's range, all of which are completely different making her range appealing to an extremely wide range of people with incredibly different tastes.

I chose Little Duck, because we're coming into spring now and I felt this colour was perfect. This colour is appropriate for everyday wear, it's subtle yet still noticeable (if that even makes sense?)

This nail polish retails at £5.99 for 12ml which, just like the lipglosses, is incredibly good value for money. 

I can be very lazy when it comes to nail polish if I'm not in the mood, if a nail chips it could be days before I do anything about it. I would probably put it down to that I only touch up my nails when I'm going to work, and if I were to be unemployed this bad habit may even be worse. However after going of at that tangent the point I'm trying to make is that this nail polish must contain some sort of magic potion as I've been wearing it for around 5 days now and it is still yet to chip. It also only takes one coat to cover the nail to 'full colour' and it's relatively quick drying! What more could you want from a nail polish?

Tanya has since reveled that her line will be introduced to Superdrug stores across the country and let me tell you, I'll 100% be in there purchasing her entire range.

Have you brought/tried anything for Tanya's new range? What were your thoughts?
