Nail of The Day ¦ NOTD ¦ Essie

So for the weekend I have decided to go for something fun, cute and girly. Summer is here ... or was until the weather did a 160 on us all as usual. My inspiration for this nail look was from Ingrid (miss glamorazzi youtube)

I just loved the combination of the polka dots, with the pink heart and accent colour on my thumb. To create this look you will need, a pale pink, bright pink and white polish. Along with a top coat of your choice and a base coat - I currently don't have one. naughty.

The polish I used to create this look was Essie's Muchi Muchi which is the gorgeous soft pink. Then for the heart and the thumb to add some fun to the look I used Essie's Lovie Dovie. Then for the polka dots, I took my french manicure tipped Rimmel London Polish which I don't think you can get anymore unfortunately.

For the dots I took a cocktail stick or if you have them use dotting tools -- obviously a lot easier.
Again I then used a cocktail stick for the heart as, just by placing a dot of the polish on the nail and spreading it to the shape I wanted before it dried.

Send me your creations to my twitter @Sfrancestweets and Instagram Sara25fm.

Lucy Watson ¦ Made In Chelsea ¦ Inspired Makeup

Here's what I used for the tutorial that I did to create a similar look to one I saw on Made In Chelsea, That Lucy Watson was wearing to what I believe was her birthday party ... or as they all seem to say on MIC pardy. Which was I think one of the first episodes of this season.


A classic red lip, which looks gorgeous on Lucy, with basically nude eyes, winged liner and a glow to the skin. Lucy is already very pretty with or without makeup, so the toned down eye makeup looks stunning on her. 

Here's what I used to create the look:

Starting with Laura Mercier Silk Creme Foundation. In the shade Rose Ivory.

Then to give my skin a glow I used my Chanel Soleil Tan De Chanel 

Moving onto brows with my Avon Perfect Eyebrow Kit. In the shade soft brown.

Urban Decay Primer Potion in Original to prep my eye lids for any shadow I'm going to use. 

Then I take my MAC Palette and use the following eyeshadows:
Brule as a base.
Patina to add definition to the crease and outer corners of the eye.
Finally I take Shroom to highlight the inner corners of the eye and the brow bone.

To create the soft winged liner I used L'Oreal Super Liner Perfect Slim. Intense black.

Mascara, I used two mascaras, a different one for my top and bottom lashes. For the top Lashes I used Maybelline the Falsies and for the bottom I used Maybelline Great Lash Mascara

MUA Blusher in the shade Cupcake. 

And Finally to finish the look I used Maybelline's ColorSensational Lipstick, in the shade 530 Fatal Red.
