Brand Watch: Models Own

Models Own is currently having a 
facebook promo where if they reach
10,000 'Likes' then they will
do a 50% Sale . Sounds good to me !
So go onto facebook and 'Like' them !
However, you have to spend more
than  £20 on the site in order
to get the 50 % off which is like $30. 


They will send their 
facebook fans
a voucher for the site.

Models Own is a UK based company with 
makeup stuff... but Im more interested in the 
nail polish.


On their website they have the polish divided
into categories such as Pinks Greys Greens






I love that ! You can even buy the polish
in sets such as the 'French Manicure Set' 
They also have a base & top 
coat which makes your polish shiny
all in one bottle !


The colors are great ! There are at least 
one from every set that I want. The
colors are just so cute & fun !  
I've heard that the formula is quite good 
as well.


So, wait until the sale & go 
buy them up ! Thats what Im going to do...
The cool thing is you can grab 
some extra stuff like lip tint without
having to go to another site to do so.


By the way - the polishes will be £2.50 
 a bottle which is like $3.90 U.S ! !  ^ ^

Pretty Nails Pt. 1

Cleanser Routine ~

After removing my makeup with my 

Ponds Cold Cream & Wet Cleansing Tissues 

I wash my face with Loreals Go 360

Clean. What attracted my attention to this 

was the silicone scrubbie thing

which a lot of places in asia sell by itself. 

I could never find any

so I was excited to give this product a go. 

I probably wouldnt even have bought it

if it wasnt for the scrublet...

I have the one for sensitive skin.

I massage the cleanser into my face for around

2 mins and as I rinse it off I keep using the scrublet.

I noticed it really gives me the motivation to

pay attention to cleansing my face throughly and 

it makes me just want to keep rubbing away. 

Its soo fun to use ! I was  thinking of

buying a Clarisonic but with a cheap little

silicone thingy , you can still get a 

super clean face.

After using it - I follow it up with my 

Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser for

Normal/Oily skin to reap all the benefits

of it for my acne prone skin.

The reason for this is that the purpose of the

360 one for me is just to get every last drop

of makeup off.

But, I still need my Cetaphil .

However, in the morning I only use my Cetaphil

with the silicone scrubbie. 

It realllly has helped me keep down my need to

use blackhead pore strips. 

( I use the ones by Etude house BTW.

 They work soo much better 

than the Biore ones ! ) 

Overall - Im loving this routine at 

the moment : )

I also have Kai Cleansing Brushes

which are super great

because if you buy 2

you can just wash your face so easily.

Your pointer finger slips right up

into the little pocket so its great !

Im planning to give one or 2 away in an

upcoming contest.

These are available on sasa.com

Brand Watch : Deborah Lippmann

So, as I look around the internet these days

I keep seeing mentions of Lady Gaga and her grey nails

on the cover of Vanity Fair.

I had a friend post a link on my facebook with a color 

by Lippmann & everyone just seems to want to try

her colors these days.

They are bold, fun but well...quite pricey.

Definitely a luxury nail polish brand.

The names of her Nail Polishes mostly come

from popular songs from the past or present.

Such as "Its raining men" 

The polishes range from about $16 - $20 

At first I was thinking to myself...

why are they double the price of OPI ?! 

Isnt OPI expensive as it is ? 

I was thinking that there really must be

something great about them if they 

are DOUBLE the cost of OPI.

So, I visited the website and the

difference with Lippmann's polishes is that she

infuses them with ingredients

to help your nails and not just cover them.

Things such as Biotin & Green Tea.

So, thats good news... but if I order any online 

it certainly wont be many, as I already have 

similar colors. But, some of the polishes 

are very unique. I do really want to try the 

grey and some of the sparkly colors. 

Im curious about the brush, the drying time 

& how well it goes on. But, I guess
the only way to find out is to try one.

Well, with Seche Vite any polish 

can be great. But,with this price tag

it better be great even without my Seche : ) 

She even created some color with celebs

such as "No More Drama'' Mary J Blige.

Pretty cool.

She actually has a blogspot (woohoo)

which shows a lot of the colors

swatched. The bottles are very modern

and simple & just scream New York City

to me. These polishes I probably wouldnt 

use for Nail Art. I think I'd put them on

when I feel like a more simplistic, 

mature look...which is rare. Haha !
