MAC - Isabel & Ruben Toledo Modern Twist Lash Mascara (LE)

Hi everyone! Today I have a review of the MAC - Isabel & Ruben Toledo Modern Twist Lash mascara in the shade Caligrafy. The shade is a gorgeous dark navy with light blue micro shimmers in it. It's a really subtle but beautiful colour that will make your eyes pop in an intriguing way. The brush is very curvy and I did find it a bit difficult to apply. I found myself smudging mascara on my eyelids with the dip in the brush. Saying this, I did find that it lifted and brightened my brown eyes very nicely. As this collection was limited, it is no longer available but you might be lucky and find it online somewhere. This mascara retails for £24.80.

OPI - Gwen Stefani Collection

Hey everyone! Today I will be showing you the collection of polishes from the latest OPI x Gwen Stefani collection (on counters now). This collection consists of 7 shades; 2 glossy cremes, 2 satin-finish colours, 1 glitter, 1 chrome and 1 super limited hot red that comes in a box with swarovski studs and crystals. The stand out for me is definitely the chrome colour (Push & Shove) which even comes with its own base coat; Lay Down The Base for optimal results. 

Each photo shows 2 coats applied (excluded Push & Shove, which is 1 coat) and shows the first picture in direct light and the second photo indoors/shade.

4 In The Morning (Satin) - One of my favourite shades from the collection, is a satin black with silve micro shimmer through it. This dries to the nail slightly lighter and is gorgeous!



Hey Baby - A hot pink bubblegum creme. Very girly




In True Stefani Fashion - A super dense silver and holographic packed glitter topper. Micro glitters and hex glitters galore!


I Sing In Colour - My least favourite from the collection. A dark, deep eggplant shade. This shade is just not for me. Applies perfectly though!


Love.Angel..Music.Baby - This stunner is my favourite from the whole collection and is a gold fine glitter that dries to a stunning satin finish. It is super elegant and girly. I adore!


Over & Over A-Gwen with Swarovski Gold Studs -  A super bright fire engine red. A classic colour. The studs are gorgeous and very sturdy.



Push & Shove - The most anticipated and exciting colour by OPI to date (i'd say, anyway!), this super shiny, eye-searing silver chrome polish. It is actually much brighter in person than Layla's version. It's a shame on the wear time though (about 4 hours before chipping commenced)! 


I have really enjoyed this collection. 4 out of 7 colours are new, fresh and exciting and I love seeing what nail polish brands can do! One day soon, I hope to see a gold chrome colour - that lasts longer than 24 hours as well! Let me know your favourites! Thanks for reading.
