St Paddy's NOTD

,
I'm getting into the swing of St Patrick's day with green nails. I don't own much green anything so this is about the best I can do! 

The colour is Barry M's Mint Green nail paint. It's a tad more green and less blue in real life than it appears in the pics. It was really easy to apply and very appropriate for today I thought :)

Happy St Patrick's Day!

No I am not sick!

I was a uni last week and a girl who i was sitting next too in class asked if i was sick and pointed to my nails. I realised she was referring to my yellow tinged nails which happened from wearing Barry M nail paint in mint green the week before haha. The nail paint had stained them a terrible yellow colour which i must admit was quite gross and i should have painted over. I guess that's what happens when I'm too lazy to apply a base coat.

I have never had a nail polish stain my nails before this Barry M one. I had a look around on some other blogs and read a few reviews that said they stain, I must have never noticed them before. Has this happened to anyone before?

I don't know if you can tell that well in this picture but this is what my nails look like.

Note to self: Next time apply a base coat!

What’s In My Makeup Bag:

I always really enjoy these posts, so here we go.

This is my makeup bag. It’s from K-mart and I really like it. It was cheap, is compact and holds heaps. Despite what it may look like I can actually zip it up!



Firstly lips. Like every girl I always have more then enough lip products with me. I suffer from chronic dry lips and do normally have more lip balms but today looks like a tame day. On a day to day basis I use Lucas’s Pawpaw ointment but recently my lips have been really dry bad so I have been using The Body Shop’s Hemp Lip Protector which is good so far. I also have a Mac tinted lip conditioner in fuchsia fix, MAC lipglass in Underage, MAC cremesheen in Crème Cup and my latest purchase Barry M lipgloss in Toffee, which living in Australia I am so happy to have finally got my hands on!



Next is MAC blot powder. I always have this with me to fight the dreaded shine, as well as have MAC Select Cover-up in NW20, Benefit posietint which is good for on the go and Rimmel sexy curves (my one has seen better days.)



And then there are just some random things. Blot tissues, tweezers, nail files, perfume, a mirror, super cute lip shaped band-aids which my mum got for me and dental floss. I used to work at a cinema and would always get popcorn stuck in my teeth so dental hence the dental floss!



And that’s everything :)
