My 7 random facts are:
1) I’m a Law student, I have no idea why I took Law, but during my exams I did phisically want to kick myself, it’s a difficult subject, especially because it requires a good memory, and well I can’t even remember my own phone number...

2) When I’m stressed (or have time) I make jewellery. The funny thing is, my most creative ideas come when I’m most stressed out- so that’s why you will probably notice more creations during my exam period!

3) I play the Piano and Violin


4) I’m really girly, I love pink, cute and sparkly things and I try to energy this onto my crafts

5) My aims for this summer is to learn to bake! It may come as a shock, but I’ve seriously never baked before! haha! I would like to learn to make chocolate cupcakes and cakes, so if anyone has good recipes, do share!


6) I’m a bad liar, my face goes bright red and I have fits of giggles, so convincing I know!

7) I’ve only been to a gym once and that was  in my Hotel when I was in China! I had a personal trainer there and it was hilarious, he spoke Mandarin and I spoke English… so there was a lack of communication and I think I literally spent 2minutes on the treadmill and the arm-stretching thing. It was the longest workout of my life, and I was probably the most useless customer he ever had… Ahwell, at least I can jog… once in a while…

These are the 7 random people i've chosen to stalk-whoops i mean to find out more about =)

I look forward to reading your 7 random facts ladies!
Lots of love <3 xX

Glitter Summer Eye: Collection 2000 Glam Crystals Dazzling Gel Liner Swatches

If you are unafraid of glitter, then glitter eyeliner will probably be one of your staples during summer. Glitter eyeliner is a good way to jazz up an otherwise neutral face. While I myself personally am glitter averse (I'm eternally worried that the glitter bits will irritate my eyes), it seems to look good on others. And since glitter seems to be synonymous with summer, I figure why not swatch them for you guys?

Today's glitter eyeliners are the Collection 2000 Glam Crystals Dazzling Gel Liner. These are basically bits of glitter suspended in an almost-clear gel base. Because of this, they are perfect for layering over non-glitter eyeliner to give a little bit of bling to your look.

Collection 2000 Glam Crystals Dazzling Gel Liner

L-R: Glitz 1, Funk 3, Hustle 4, Le Freak 5, Night Fever 6, Dancing Queen 8, Retro Chic 9, Shake It Up! 11, Spandex 12

Glitz 1 is a silver glitter suspended in a clear base. This one had one of the denser glitters of the entire range.

Funk 3 is a yellow gold glitter in a clear base. As you can see, this one had less dense glitter than Glitz. This colour is pretty cool though. It's more yellow gold and not orange gold.

Hustle 4 is super super cool. Have you heard of OPI's polish Mad as a Hatter? It was a totally cool bottle of polish, consisting of multicoloured glitter in the bottle, and it looks kind of purple-silver-black on. Well, Hustle is like the eyeliner version of Mad as a Hatter. The swatch doesn't do it justice at all. It looks like a silver, but it's a lot more multi-dimensional than that. Sometimes it looks purple, sometimes silver, sometimes black-ish. It's a beauty.

Le Freak 5 is a turquoise aqua glitter in sheer turqoise gel.

Night Fever 6 is a colbalt blue glitter in a clear gel.

Dancing Queen 8 is a rosy red glitter in a clear gel.

Retro Chic 9 is a gold glitter in a clear gel, but this one is more orange than Funk.

Shake It Up! 11 is a blurple (a mix between blue and purple) in a matching blurple gel base. This one is also pretty cool. It's more purple than Night Fever for sure, and it's a very pretty stunning colour.

Spandex 12 is a yellow green glitter in a clear gel. On closer inspection this one has two kinds of glitter, green and yellow. Or is it my eyes playing tricks on me? It's hard to tell.

So what do you guys think? Is glitter eyeliner cool, or is it a no-no for you?
