Nails of the Day : This is one of my all time favourite colours, creamy mauve-pink, you name it. I can't say the same for the nail polish. Cheap of course, but 3 coats to get this?? Not recommended.

I was wandering around shops today and I was happy to get into a shop with a wall full of xmas cuteness! I loved the cookie jars you see on the back and the candles with the clever lid on the front, looking like chocolate with cream and smelling like chocolate too!

I also walked into Mac, swatching 100 colours, preparing myself for the 30% discount from Glamour magazine next week!! Oh, I remembered why I love Mac so much! You can see purple shadows, satin taupe and other colours on my wishlist.
I am searching for a perfect red lipstick and since my Mac shopping list is so big, I went to Hondos to check on some other brands. The one I loved from Mac is Russian Red (Kim Kardashian favourite, click here to see it). Then I found one that looks just like that in Maybelline! It's Lady Red from the new Color Sensationals.
They don't look identical in the photo but I promise they're are very much alike in the reality. The difference is Maybelline is juicier and Russian Red is matte. It' s a shade that will look good on everyone.(Russian Red is the big line in the middle and on it's left it's the Lady Red. Chaos I know!)
I'll buy Maybelline for now and tell you how I find it.Note that will be my first red lipstick. ;)

What's your favourite red lipstick?

Ohh I loveee red lipstick!!
I have been coveting Russian Red for awhile now :)
The Maybelline one looks great though!! I use a Max Factor one- it's really smooth and not matte like Russian Red which is my only turn off. Great post :)
i have stila's delilah lipstick (always apply it with lip brush) and use MAC's red lip pnecil. it's a pretty good combo, but when wearing red lipstick you have to be extremely careful cause if it fades or goes on your teeth, it can become a beauty nightmare!

The nail polish color is prety, but you're right, 3 coats it's kinda heavy! But color is so pretty!
That nail polish shade is pretty, but it shouldn't take three coats! lol
