Fashionista have been quite talked about over youtube and blogs, and are known for their magnetic nail varnishes fronted by The Saturdays. I popped into Superdrug to have a little look at them, but I was shocked at the prices! The varnishes alone were £6 and then you have to buy the magnet for £3! In Boots you can get the 17 version of the magnetic polish for £5.99 which has a magnet in the lid!
While at the Fashionista stand, I fell in love with the shimmery, gorgeous shades of eyeshadow, and noticed that they had an offer on. The individual eyeshadows were £4 each, but if you bought a quad (usually £5), and bought four eyeshadows to fill it, you could get it for £12! Which would be the price of 3 eyeshadows usually! Bargain, and I thought it would be rude not to pick some up! So I bought two quads, in the red design as I thought they looked classier than the black , logo-covered version, and 8 eyeshadows.

As you can see, these shades are gorgeous! Really nice and shimmery, but a kind of grown up shimmer, nothing overly glittery. The pigmentation is good, but not amazing, it took a few goes to build up the intensity on my hand, but I think a good eyeshadow primer would help with that. I haven't actually tried these on the eyes yet, but I'll give you an update when I do!
Next, I thought I'd show you a nail combo I've been loving. It's Barry M's Peach Melba and Model's own Nail art pen in Black. The result is this...

This nail art pen is so handy, if you pull off the cap, there's a nib to do dots and designs, and you can also unscrew the bottle, for a long, thin brush to do lines etc. I've been loving polka dot nails, and have worn this for about a month, just changing the colour underneath, reds and blues look lovely with polka dots!
Thanks for reading, hope everyone is okay!
