Real techniques easter present

As part of my Easter my mum and dad bought me this Real techniques brush set for eyes which includes;
Base shadow brush- which is a flat brush great for packing on eyeshadow and because these are synthetic brushes you can use cream products with them.
Deluxe crease brush- which is ideal from contouring in the crease of the eye with. I have also seen Pixiwoo use this with concealer.
Accent brush- This can be used for detail work. I used this with gel liner to create a winged liner look.
Pixel point eyeliner brush- This is amazing for liner. I think you could also use this to hightlight your inner corner.
Brow brush- This brush is such a great shape for use for brows

Essie cute as a button

Essie cute as a button nail polish is a bright neon pink/coral which is a really amazing summer colour. I used a base coat, two coats of cute as a button and a top coat there.

Model's own utopia

This nail polish is a lilac grey nude. Which with me being so pale I wasn't sure it would work with my skin tone but I really love it. This I think is a nice nude colour for spring. Model's own nail polish are £5 each which I think makes them really reasonable. I used a base coat, two coats of utopia and a top coat here.

Essie lil' boa peep

This is from their new snakeskin line. There is a magnet on top of the lid and its suppose to create a snakeskin effect. I didn't have much success with this product in the snakeskin effect. It came up in patches but wasn't that great. I love the colour of the nail polish though which is a grey with silver and gold in it. I applied my Solutions base coat. Then my first coat of this colour without using the magnet as it says to do on the pack. On my second I held the magnet over my nail for 10 seconds, the packaging recommends 5. Then I applied my Revlon colour stay top coat.

No7 Blackberry

No7 Blackberry is a dark berry purple colour which I got in a Christmas gift set which i believe you can get on it own from Boots.com. I applied Solutions Base coat which I got from Sally's quiet a few years ago, it drys really quickly. I then applied two coats of Blackberry. My top coat is Revlon's colour stay. I think this nail polish would go great with my Ridley from Beautiful creatures Inspired makeup which you can check out on my Youtube channel.
