NOTD: Neon Skittle Mani

Neon Skittle Mani

***This post should have been up when the sun was shining!! oops.... ****

I bought a set of neon colours in Penneys for €2.50, I decided that I would test them all out in one go. I couldn't pick one and I wasn't sure, how good, bad or ugly they would be. Being of the cheap and cheerful variety. Don't get me wrong, I'm a big fan of the cheaper nail polish brand.. I'd pick Catrice or Essence over Essie or OPI 9 times out of 10.. But I was skeptical with trying out a Penney's own brand

As you can see the colours aren't too bad, they all needed 2 coats except for the green, which needed 4 COATS!!! But it was probably my favourite colour out of the 4 of them. I used Essence Snow White 06 Sleepy (Blue) on my thumb.

These colours were fab for a day or so but chipped like you wouldn't believe! So they would be great for an event but not so much if its longevity that your after from your polish. For me it was all about the fab colours and showing them off when the sun was shining. They got a lot of compliments even when they started to chip. So I'm not going to bad mouth them.

I like cheap and cheerful and they were that aswell as bright and bootiful for the day or two that they stayed chip free :) 

**Sorry about the photos, they were taken on my phone and aren't as clear as I would have liked!!

Happy Blogoversary To Me!!

Guys,

As you can see from the title of this post my blog is 1 year old today!! I can't believe that I've gotten here! I'm very proud of me and I'm delighted that you've all stuck with me throughout this year and I rant and ramble and share my life with ye!! So thank you to all of you reading.. I wanted to mark this as its a big deal for me!!

I had a heavy weekend at a hen party, so today there is no cake for me!! (I'm back to clean eating for the week)
 Soooooo I got the finger out and painted my nails as Cupcakes instead of consuming the real thing :)

So I didn't get a weigh in at the weekend as I was away in Galway at at Hen having a whooley.. its true..

My right Thigh

The photo doesn't do it justice!! Its waaay bigger and uglier in real life!!! And would you believe I didn't fall to get this beauty.. Oh no, it was the arm rest on the party bus, I was jumping in and out of my seat and this is my present for having fun... lol


So as I said, I didn't weigh in at the weekend BUT I did get a few pics of myself so you can see how my waist and muffin top are are doing, I'm happy to report that the latter appears to be shrinking.. This makes me happy..

Saturday Nite

My Friday Night nails let me down badly and chipped to bits (bad form Catrice) So a quick dash to Penneys, €1.50 later and I was sporting these, I'm not a fan of fake nails, but they done the job even if they were badly fitted to my nails!! I lost 3 and had to pull the rest off on Sunday!! NOICE
