A round up of Jubilee offers......

Hi guys, 

I thought I would post a special 'Jubilee' edition post, listing some of the current Jubilee bargains from some of my favourite brands, so (hopefully) it will be informative for you!

First up, we have Nails Inc....

For this Jubilee weekend only, you can order 6 full size lucky dip polishes for just £15 (plus £3.95 p&p, unless you spend over £40 then it is free)

Obviously you wont know what colours you are getting but considering each polish retails for around £11, its an awesome deal.

If you want to check out, visit the site.

This isn't a Jubilee only offer, as it is on until 14th June but it is from one of my faves, Illamasqua.

At the moment, when you buy 2 of their powder eye shadows, you get 2 bottles of sealing gel free (use code 'SGFREE') - this gets great reviews and its fab for turning your shadows in to liquid liners, so check it out here.

Next up we have Temporary Secretary, who make THE cutest jewellery!

This weekend, they are offering 15% off all of their jewellery, using code 'JUBILEE15', so check them out here.

Here are some of my faves from them:

 

Bunny ring and skull cameo ring

 

Keep calm necklace and fab lucky dip offer - I <3 lucky dips!

More jewellery next (can you tell I love jewellery!), this time Punky Pins, which is actually a business local to me!

This weekend, they are having a Jubilee sale and if you spend £25 or more, you receive a free double layered name necklace!

Their Pop Art collection is my fave and it is currently on sale:

Necklace - £12.60

They also offer Lucky Dips too, which I have bought in the past and been really pleased with, so check them out here!

So there you go, a few places to check out - I was disappointed to see that a few of the bigger brands, such as Cath Kidston, MAC, etc havent offered anything special for the Jubilee but hey, you cant have everything!

Hope you liked this post and hope you enjoy the Jubilee!

Hugs

Illamasqua Naked Strangers Collection

Hello!

Sorry for my long hiatus and being such a bad blogger!

Today, this popped in to my mailbox and I thought I'd share:

The collection consists of these 3 nail polishes (as well as some nude blushes and lip glosses), all priced at a very specific £12.15 each (this may just be pre lauch, as the RRP is £13.50)!

Here are the details, including site images:

'Monogamous', which is described as a 'creamy flesh pink, matte finish'

'Faithful', which is described as a 'coppered metal, metallic finish'

'Swinger', which is described as a 'glistening platinum gold, metallic finish'

I would say 'Swinger' is my fave out of the 3, as nudes arent really my bag, although I like the look of the nail art in the first image - what do you think of this new release?

For more info, check it out here - the UK release date is 31st May.

Hope you are all enjoying the lovely UK weather today :)

Hello again!

Hello again :)

I havent really been in to blogging as of late although have been working on a new project, which I am excited to now reveal :)

I started DOLLYgirl in 2010 and was busy creating orders although during a bout of long term illness, seemed to lose my way with it a bit.

However, I have decided that 2012 is going to be year to really pursue this, as I want to get my business started!

Anyways, to showcase this and to provide updates, I have created a new blog, which can be found here and I would really appreciate it if you could take a look and spread the word.

I will leave you with some images of what DOLLYgirl is all about - unique, handmade and fabulous........

Thanks so much in advance - I really hope you can help spread the word about my exciting new venture :)

Hugs

Gareth Pugh for MAC Cosmetics

Hello!

How are you all?

I am super excited about this collection, due for UK release this December.

The collection is quite edgy (for MAC,anyway!), with some really nice pieces.

As you can see, its quite a comprehensive collection, with something for everyone - my faves are the nail polishes and I will definitely be trying to get these babies:

I LOVE duo-chrome polishes and these look fabulous!

The shades are (from left to right):

Inert : Creamy mid-tone greyed nude (crème)

Hyper : Deep blue with violet pearl (frost)

Ascension : Grey with blue violet reflective pearl (frost)

There are also some graphic false lashes, which I think are awesome:

What do you guys think of this upcoming collection?

Freak like me..............

Hello!

Hope you are all enjoying this glorious weather in October?!!!

Anyway, speaking of strange happenings, look what I found, just in time for Halloween - my fave time of year!

When I saw this I was delighted!!

Its the new fragrance by Illamasqua, aptly named 'Freak'.

I love the bottle design, with the little silver snail slithering up the side of the bottle but what about the fragrance?

They say.......

"Freak is a concoction of dangerously exotic unconventional flowers which Illamasqua has unashamedly blended together to celebrate the night…

The notes for the unisex fragrance feature black davana, opium flower, belladonna, poison hemlock, datura, queen of the night, frankincense, oud and myrrh"

Sounds intriguing and I really wanna try it!

This débuts this month and will be available in 75ml Eau de Parfum for £59

What do you guys think?

Will you be treating yourselves?

Barry M Instant Nail Effect Nail Foil Varnish

Hello my lovelies, 

I am so sorry for my long absence - I have been feeling very low and just not in the mood to blog but will try my best to get back to regular blogging :)

Anyways, when surfing the net I came across these beauties:

What Barry M says.........

"Instant Nail Effects foil is an amazing addition to our Nail Paints. It is applied like any other Nail Paint but with a luxurious foil finish previously only acheived from a salon manicure. It only requires one coat and is very quick drying."

What I say......

These look AWESOME - I will definately be picking these up to see how they fare against the ever popular 

MINX effect - I really hope that they do not disappoint!

Whilst the silver shade is my current fave, I am hoping that they will expand the colour selection as they have done with the cracking polishes.

They are priced at £3.99 each and you can pick them up here

Thanks for reading - I hope you are all having a good September so far!
