Crystal Smile Whitening Strips

Good Evening, Everyone :) I purchased these whitening strips the other day in hopes that the damage my excessive coffee drinking has done to my brilliant whites will be vanished in a matter of minutes. The reviews for these were really good, and they are also peroxide free which means that they are less likely to cause any sensitivity. I picked these instead of the Crest 3d whitening strips because even though the results are probably better, the Crest ones are more likely to damage your teeth plus they are kind of illegal in EU and UK :D




BUT here are my results :) This is just after 1 day :) And I think the results are petty good. You can do a course over 14 days using the strips just once a day or over the course of 7 days using them twice daily. I'm doing the 7 day course.
The pictures are completely unedited, but taken at a different time of the day and I'm wearing a bit of make up on the top picture.

The one thing I do say is after the first time, my teeth looked a bit uneven, but then the second time evened them out.
My opinion is though, that they are definitely worth trying. I think for the 12 pounds I spent on the 28 strips I got my moneys worth and then some. So if your teeth need whitening, I definitely recommend these.

Hope you enjoyed the post
Stay tuned :)

My Nail Polish Collection

Good Morning, Everyone!

I know I said I won't be doing any New Year resolutions, but I need to promise myself not to buy any more darn nail varnishes...as I have about a million of them already. The funny?! part of it is, that I actually rarely have time to do my nails these days anyway :D And when I do then I tend to go for the basics and colours that won't show that much when they chip.
Having a baby is really awesome, but finding time to do your nails and then actually have the time to let them dry for efficient time...pretty much impossibe.
Anyway...I thought I'll share my excessive nail varnish collection with you guys. And I say excessive, compared to like these crazy beauty blogger/vloggers and professionals, my collection is TINY. But for a normal person I do believe I have quite a few :)



I keep them in a French Connection gift set box, which I realise is not big enough for all of them, but I make do with what I've got :D I also keep the files and clippers in there unless I've dragged them around the flat in hopes I will have time to do my nails :D

I have to admit, when it comes to colour and the intensity of the colour you actually get from just one coat of polish, hands down I always go for Revlon. And I really like the bottles.



Barry M is just a nightmare, and to get anything close to the colour in the pot you have to apply like 7 coats. I still have quite a few of them though :D they are so cheap I can't help myself (3.99 if I'm not mistaken)
The recent addition to the nail polish collection. I got all of these Ciate polishes and glitter for 10 pounds when I went to the Clothes Show Live in Birmingham. I don't think I will ever use the yellow caviar set though :S ever...it's yellow...weird :D they were part of a gift bag. The pastel colors are matte, which I think is quite cool.


When it comes to cheap nail varnishes, I don't think you can beat h&m ones :) I think they are awsome :) I don't have that many though.


I have the classic reds and dark reds :)


I also have a few random ones from L'oreal and No7 and Rimmel
And then I have all these glittery ones and the artisty ones you can use to do stuff I don't have time to do :D Maybe one day :D


But like with Makeup I do think Revlon is the one. I just love every single product from Revlon I think...obsessed maybe. Very good value for money :) 

Hope you enjoyed the post :)
Stay tuned

2014

Good Afternoon, Everyone :)
What a year 2014 was. For most of 2014 I was pregnant and then in August I had my baby boy :) Now I can't imagine my life without him. He is the reason why I am sleep deprived, tired, loopy and deliriously happy most of the time and I wouldn't have it any other way :D
I also started this blog in May...and I will continue to write about my days and doings...I just don't see any other way  any more:)
I've never been the one to look back on the year gone and think what I regret and then come up with several new year resolutions. And I definitely won't be starting it now, mainly because I don't regret anything from last year. In all fairness, it was the best year of my life so far. And knowing what new adventures we have coming this year I just know I will have no regretting to do in the end of 2015 as well. 
We will be moving to our new house and will try to make it our home. That house will be the one where Oscar will take his first steps, speak his first words and probably have his first real tantrum...I can't wait. 
Hope you all are as excited about the coming year as I am, and don't waste time on resolutions. Use that time to make memories you will cherish for ever. Travel if you life to travel, exercise if you enjoy working out, eat good food and spend time with your friend and family. Because in the end,what will matter, are the memories worth remembering :)


Happy New Year, Everyone.
And as always...Stay tuned :o)
