REVLON Parfumerie Scented Nail Enamel

I saw these advertised recently in a magazine and couldn't resist checking them out. Although I have far too many nail varnishes for my liking I couldn't resist these. If I could I would buy the whole range, but for now I have just selected Watermint (sparkly pale green) and Surf Spray (blue) (both ideal for the summer), although I am very tempted by Autumn Spice. I bought these in Boots and they must be quite popular as there weren't many in stock. You don't really smell the scent when you take the lid off, it's only until application that you can smell it. Not only is the scent refreshing, but also long lasting plus you still get to enjoy the pretty colours. They are reasonably priced at £6.49 and you can purchase them here.

Benefit's Lollitint Cheek and Lipstain


So I received Benefit's new Lollitint Cheek and Lipstain today, rather pricey for £25 but you get a fairly big bottle and as I am student and bought it from asos with free delivery it was slightly cheaper than getting it from another site. I am a huge fan of Benefit and their lipstains and already have Cha Cha Tint (orange tone, in a small sample box, a freebie from a magazine, much prefer this size for trying), Posietint (pink) and the original colour, Benetint (Red). Personally, I found Benetint dried rather patchy on my lips so was a bit wary of trying the new tints, but the latter tints seem to have a smoother application and creamier formula. 
As for the Lollitint, the same nice creamier application and staying power, the colour itself was a bit scary when I first looked at, but it's not so bad on. It's definitely a cooler, blue tone pink, verging on pinky purple, so only a couple of applications are required if you don't want a too heavy and vibrant colour. I must admit, I have still got to make up my mind about this one, I may even prefer the lighter and brighter tones of Posietint and Cha Cha Tint. But it's ok for now, especially for darker and cooler seasons.
