Get it Quick, It's another Nail Craze!

After using the Barry M cracked nails effect last winter, I was excited to hear that The Saturdays are releasing their new range of Magnetized nails in Superdrug later this month! I was in Boots last week and saw that the brand '17' have pipped them to the post and have released some great wintery colours in the magnetic effect.

I wasn't sure if the hype was going to live up to what the nails actually turn out like but I have to admit I love it!! You paint the colour on your nail and whilst the polish is still wet, hold the magnet (which is in the lid of the nail varnish) over the nail to create a rippled /tie dye effect. The nice lady in Boots also pointed out there is a rest on the lid which you use to keep the magnet at a usuable distance.


I'm looking forward to using the other colours in the range as I think it would look fab when used with a silver nail varnish!


**Update - I've now used this on my toes too and by using a larger, household magnet (I pinched one from our notice board) you can create an even better rippled result!

Working up a sweat for a good cause.....




I can't believe it's already that time of year for the Julia's House sponsored run along Bournemouth prom. Last year we supplied the bright tees for the event and this year we've included 5k t shirts as well as 10k ones for all the runners participating.


Hannah and I have been working on this project together and limbering up for the charity event at the same time! It's safe to say that not much has changed since last year (none of us have become pro athletes!) but we're delighted to be supporting such a great cause as Julia's House for another year running (get the pun!?).

If you feel like a walk, jog or run then come along and join us this weekend!
