Tape Tape Tape

So this is probably going to be a really obvious thing to do when putting liquids into your suitcase, however I realised I should have done it after a spillage.

If you haven't already guessed what this post is going to be about then keep on reading.

Always sellotape your bottles, jars, containers etc before putting them in your suitcase, otherwise it is likely that when you go to take them out they will have spilled over all your other items. And yes do it even if the bottle or whatever is unopened because it can happen with sealed things and trust me I know because that's what happened to me.

If you want to be extra careful after you have wrapped half your belongings in sellotape put them in a plastic bag, so if they do spill they won't go over clothes, shoes etc and ruin them. 

Have any of you ever had a spillage disaster? Or do you have other ways of making sure your clothes and shoes are safe? Leave me a comment explaining what you do.

Zebra Print and Stormy Skies

Animal print is everywhere this season and if like me you're not bold enough to wear an animal print piece of clothing why not try these nail wraps. They are simple to use and look pretty good once applied.

I was a bit doubtful whether they were going to look tacky but I soon found that I liked how they looked on my nails.

You can wear the nail wraps on all of your nails or like me just on the accent nail with any other nail polish on the other nails. I used Stormy skies by MUA.

You can easily purchase these nail wraps in boots and if animal print just isn't your thing there are so many other designs that you can choose from. 

These nail wraps range from a price of £5.99 to £7.95

and 

the MUA nail varnishes range from £1.00 to £2.99

Tell me have any of you used these nail wraps? What did you think of them? Leave me a comment below.

How to make your own Eyeshadow Primer

So you're getting ready to go out and realise that you have run out of your favourite eyeshadow primer and don't have time to pop to the shops to get a new one!!

Don't panic there is a quick and easy way to resolve this problem, and that is by making your own. It is so simple and only takes 2 minutes. 

What you need:

A small container with a lid where you can conserve the product

Any kind of foundation ( If you have a cheap one or one you don't use that often I advise you too use that one so you are not wasting your expensive foundation.)

Any type of moisturiser (Preferably quite a thick one)

What to do:

Now all you need to do is scoop some of your moisturiser into the small container, add the foundation, mix it all together and you are ready to go. 

Have any of you tried this method? Has it work for you? What other tricks do you have to save money?
