DIY Mickey Mouse Nail Tutorial

In this step-by-step tutorial I’m going to show you how to do some cool Mickey Mouse themed nails.  We’ve done them in Minnie Mouse colours (pink and white, with a bit of rainbow glitter) for an extra girly touch, but you can use any colour combo you like.

Lumos Base and Top Coat

Lumos Base and Top Coat

Start out by applying a base coat.  This step is so important that I dedicated a whole blog post to it! I recommend Lumos by Famous Names because it reduces the drying time – bonus!

Review: Sorbet “Frizz Wrangler” Shampoo Bar

Raise your hand if you use hot irons, curlers, hair dryers or bleach… I know there must be a lot of hands in the air  right now! My post is especially for you today.

I have hair that is naturally prone to frizz. I also bleach, colour and heat style my hair. Therefore I need something amazing that will tame the frizz without weighing down my curls, and leave me with silky smooth locks…

How to paint your nails like a professional

Hats to keep you warm as the weather cools down

It’s definitely starting to get a bit chillier now, the perfect time to invest in a snazzy hat to keep that precious brain of yours warm and functioning (no one likes brain freeze!). Hats are a great way of changing up your outfit without spending loads of cash.

nzgirl asked me to compile a list of my top ten hats for cooler weather, so here they are!

I find it really hard to find a hat that I think suits me, so I tend to go with styles I already know and love.  The fedora is my go to hat, and I’m loving this navy woolen fedora from Redcurrent (also available in burgundy). View Post
