MAC Glamour Daze Superb and Everything That Glitters.........


Every year MAC launches a fabulous Christmas collection with everything our heart could desire. And this year The Glamour daze Collection delivers big time.

I had promised myself that I wasn't going to go mad and buy too much from the collection as I have asked for a few bits for Christmas and also, I want to show the makeup I have a little love.

There were just two things that I knew I wanted to get when the collection launched online.
1 was the Extra Dimension Skin finish in Superb that I missed out on earlier in the year, and the other was Everything That Glitters Nail polish. This is my first polish from MAC and what a way to start, a glitter fest in a bottle!!





Superb is a beautiful Rose gold tone highlight. I am not disappointed with this at all, I am so pleased to have this as part of my kit. It looks beautiful on a range of skin tones and adds beautiful light to the skin without being super sparkly or shiny looking.



Next is Everything that glitters, a sheer black based polish with micro glitter in magenta, teal blue, silver and gold.
Its just beautiful and opaque in two coats. The glitter is nice and dense and gives fantastic and even coverage. As I mentioned this is my first MAC polish, I hope I haven't started another obession here!!! lol.



I am really pleased with my two purchases from the collection and super excited to use them over the festive season.

Are there any items you will picking up before Christmas?

Models Own Mirror Ball Collection......


Now as you all know, I love Glitter and sparkle, I also love Nail polish, so when Models Own announced and previewed the Mirror Ball collection, I knew it was one that I would like to add to my collection.

The collection has a total of 5 polishes, all named after 70 dance tunes.
Super cool, hehehe.


I got the polishes from Models Own website Link here....
There was an offer to get all 5 polishes, plus a 3 in 1 clear base, top coat all for the price of £20!! I couldnt resist and placed my order.

Models own always have fantastic offers on, so definitely check them out!!!

I have shown you Hot stuff on both my Instagram (MariaSparkle19) and my YouTube, I have posted the video with a over view of all the polishes below. I will be doing NOTD with all of the beautiful polishes over the next few weeks!!!!!



Have you got these yet?What do you think?

Is it a Dupe, nearly but not quite..................

I posted last week about the fab GOSH Light'N'Shine lip gloss.
It occurred to me that Shade 04 may be a dupe for my much loved Like Venus Dazzleglass by MAC.


Like Venus and Shade 04

As you can see in the tube they look very similar.

Like Venus and Shade 04

As you can see from the swatches tho, there is more of a difference than you would think.
Like Venus is much more of a sheer formula with more sparkle and slightly less colour.


Like Venus Lip Swatch


GOSH Shade 04

Shade 04 is more milky and adds a tiny bit more colour to the lips.
They are both lovely and sparkly, but I think that Like Venus has the edge.
I love to layer Like Venus over lipstick, it adds a lovely shine to the lips.

Which of these do you like the best? Or are you like me, a fan of them both??

China Glaze Prismatic Full Spectrum NOTD...............


After sharing with you my new China Glaze polishes a few days ago, I have been dying to do a NOTD post for you.
Today its the chance of Full Spectrum.


Full Spectrum

This is the pink offering from the collection. I used 3 coats for these pictures and surprisingly it feels fairly smooth on my nails, not to gritty at all.



Sparkle ahoy.....


Now this polish is packed full of multi coloured glitter and does have a halo effect. It is however more obvious in the bottle than it is on the Nails.

I think this polish will look its best in the sunshine, it will really catch the light and look super pretty. 

What are your thoughts on the Prismatic collection??

GOSH Light'N Shine Lipgloss................


I have been shopping my stash recently. In more recent months I have been loving lipstick, but of late I have been reaching for glosses to layer.
I recently rediscovered my 2 GOSH Light'N'Shine Lip Glazes.

Shade 01 and Shade 04

These glosses have a built in light in the lid and a small handy mirror on the side of the tube.
The glosses are super sparkly and are very pretty.
They have a brush applicator and spread evenly over the lips. They do have a fairly thick texture, meaning that they are fairly long lasting for a gloss.

Shade 01 and Shade 04

Shade 01

Shade 04

As you can see 01 is a sheer gloss with a delicate sparkle. I like that these glosses are not to glittery but still have a pretty shimmer and sparkle. Of the two glosses 04 is my favourite, its a pretty delicate pink that is slightly milky. It looks great both on its own and layered over lipstick.

Light'N'Shine Lip Glazes are available from Superdrug and cost £7.99

What do you think? Have you rediscovered any good products recently??
