I had a hard time choosing between the Les Fumés and Les Perles Guerlain Ecrin 4 Couleurs. I finally decided on Les Fumés since it has more neutral shades - I find I reach for these a lot more.

Nails of the day #6 - Chanel Le Vernis in Rose Caché
In addition to Pirate, I bought Rose Caché #521 Le Vernis from the Rouge Allure Velvet collection. Rose Caché may look a bit boring in the bottle but I love it.

Nails Inc. Glitter Gradient
Nails Inc. asked everyone who attended their recent event to create a nail design with Nails Inc polishes. I'm not the best with nail art (not ambidextrous enough) so I wanted to create an easy simple glitter look that wasn't too OTT. I don't usually wear glitter polishes but I was drawn to these three Nails Inc. colours.

Hourglass Film Noir Lash Lacquer
I have ummm-ed and ahhh-ed over Hourglass products for a while but couldn't decide whether it was worth the investment. I finally decided to try their Film Noir Lash Lacquer since I am a mascara fiend. I love Bambi lashes without using false lashes, so volumising mascaras are my best friend.

Nails Inc. Magnetic Polish
I was invited to a Nails Inc. bloggers evening for the launch of the new Magnetic Polishes. I was very curious to try it as I have heard about them but have never actually tried them.
The premise is that you hold a magnet over your just applied, still wet nail polish. The magnet attracts the metallic particles in the nail polish, and therefore creates a wavy pattern on the surface.

Lipstick of the day #14 - Chanel Rouge Allure Velvet in La Ravissante #32
Rouge Allure Velvet is the latest range of lipsticks from Chanel. Described as luminous matte lip colour enriched mother of pearl particles, they impart a matte finish but the colour does not appear flat.

One of each please.
My other love is bags. I have a PS1 in boring black but would love another in a bright colour. One day.

Chanel Rouge Allure Velvet Haul
I bought these last Friday but haven't been able to photograph them properly yet.
I have worn La Ravissante a few times now and I find the colour really lovely - a very wearable peach for me. I've also experimented with Rose Caché together with the Top Coat Velvet tonight - I love the finish. Reviews to follow soon (once I get wifi sorted out at my new place).
