Summer beauty guide - part one

Winter, cold and dries out our manes.Although it does have its plus points, the first sprinkling of snow, hot cocoa, beret fitted snugly, and the low maintenance, those skinny jeans means your able to leave those stubbly legs for another few days, pedicures can be skipped, bad hair days covered by hats.

So when summer comes, high maintenance begins. There is nothing worse than hairy legs with a short skirt or those cute sandals being ruined by scaly feet. Bikini body, waxing, shaving, moisturising, exfoliating, pedicures and manicures.

Must haves


Bright polish is a must this summer, with grape and banana shades being favoured in the fashion magazines. With OPI picking up on this trend early, their new collections " Sunbelievable" and " Bright pair with paige denim"

Top picks out of both collections,Banana Bandana is a must have, sadly its not out yet but as soon as this colour hits the shelves i will be picking up a bottle!

A Grape fit is a myriad of wonder, is it light purple, but not that kool aid grape shade with a cooler tone.

In my backpocket, is the exact shade of if a can of tomato soup and a koi fish had a baby. Woah that thought is rather wierd. Anyway it verges on the linda hogan shade of tacky but with the right outfit this baby is to die for!
