Maybelline color tattoo in Metallic Pomegranate

This is the second item I bought yesterday! I've heard good things about this so I decided to get it in Pomegranate as it was my favourite colour of the available selection. It's a cream eyeshadow which I haven't tried before and so far I'm quite impressed! I love the packaging of this product, it's small and compact which is good for flinging in bags on your way out the door!
I used my fingers to put it on because I wasn't sure how it would act if I used a brush and it went on really smoothly! It's a really pretty red-brown colour but looks more brown than red when on! It has some really gorgeous golden flecks running through it which are really pretty, I think that it would be great as a general wash over of colour or an eyeliner!

Such a cute pot!

I love this colour!

It looks so different on but it's so pretty!

You can buy this from Boots or Superdrug for £4.99!

Have you tried any of this range? What do you guys think?

Barry M gelly - Pomegranate

I love those days where you don't go out anywhere and just relax. Today, all I've done is get into my comfy lounge trousers and captain america jumper then watched TV (old re runs of Nickelodeon shows anyone?).
My nails have been boring for the last three weeks or so with all of my travelling making it impossible for me to have a spare minute to sit down and paint them and the fact that I just spent a week digging doesn't really give me any opportunity to have a nice nail colour and keep it on for too long! I'm happy that I've been able to just take an hour or so out and paint them today, they always look so much nicer with a fresh coat of colour on them! The colour I used was part of the Barry M gelly hi shine range in the colour Pomegranate which is a darker but bright pinky-red. I also have Prickly Pear from this range which is a really cute lilac colour. Barry M do the nicest range of colours and for quite a cheap price (£3.99 for the gelly paints, £2.99 for the regulars), I was pleasantly surprised! The brush is the perfect width and the colour went on really well without any problems! For someone who usually has to re-do at least one nail, this is pretty impressive! After only one coat, the colour on my nails looks like the bottle colour which I've never had before! It dried really quickly and is so shiny too but you would expect that from a range that call the line 'gelly hi-shine'!

How pretty is this colour?! I think I have a new love

I'm going out tomorrow and Friday so I'll report back for how it fares later on! I'm impressed so far though, it's been on for a good few hours now and it looks perfect!
