Nars Schiap polish

This is the other half of prize from The 6 Inch Stilettos giveaway prize. I chose this polish because it is the PERFECT summer colour. I think everyone needs a Barbie pink in their collection so I chose this one.




I took two pictures of this because it's SO shiny so it was hard to show the true colour. (Please ignore how uneven my nails are :( )

I have actually removed this polish now as I was wearing this last week and seriously, it is so long wearing. Only one nail chipped (which is the one that always chips first) after wearing it for 6 days, which I think is really impressive.

The bottle is also gorgeous and it's really quite a big bottle too. This will certainly be one of my holiday polishes!

Thanks again Amrita, so pleased with what I chose!

Have you tried this polish or any other Nars polishes?

Lots of love

Nars Orga sm blush

Last week I was lucky enough to have won The 6 Inch Stilettos Nars giveaway. I don't think I need to tell you to go and follow this blog, I'm sure you all follow this blog and I would consider it to be one of the 'bigger' blogs I read (if that makes sense?!). I was honestly so pleased as I have never tried Nars before but have always heard great reviews. I was allowed to pick a blush and a nail polish from the brand. I have heard so many brilliant reviews about the blushes so I was so excited to finally try one out. So thank you so much! :)

I had heard that the famous 'Or ga sm' blush was brilliant for a wide range of skin tones so I decided to choose this one.

So heres some pictures:



So heres the packaging, really simple, sturdy and sophisticated. Love it.









This pink/coral blush would look brilliant on all skin tones. It has gold shimmer running through it which is a lot less obvious when it is on the skin. However, when you turn to the light, the gold shimmer shows (like on the photos) and makes a excellent highlight. I have been wearing this everyday since I got it and the staying powder for this blush is honestly brilliant. I don't have any other high end blushes and I can notice the difference between the staying powder of this and the cheaper ones that I have used.

I also got a Nars nail polish, but you will have to keep an eye on my blog in the very near future for a review!! :)

So thank you SO much Amrita!

So for some reason if you aren't following her blog, please do, it's absolutely brilliant.

Has anyone else got this blush or another Nars blush?

Lots of love
