Yu are the best

Yu have changed my life.

Yes Yu. No, not you. Yu.

Meet my new favourite lipstick. The pink colour is perfect and the pencil goes on like a dream.

My friend Melissa gave me Yu for my birthday and I in turn gave Yu to my Mum for Mother's Day.

It's a totally different pink on her - quite hot pink on me, but dark pink on Mum.

It's a winner. But really, when has anything Nars ever not been a winner?

Yu complete me.

However, when I'm going on a date, I do steer clear of pink lippy. Just in case, you know, as my Mum would say, I "get lucky"

So I've found myself adopting a love of nudes lately, a la Kim Kardashian. Have been rocking the Chanel Rouge Allure 'Indecise' like a boss lately. Thanks for the introduction, JB.

Makes me sound quite active in the dating stakes, doesn't it?

If only it were true . . .

Craze or crazy?

Got my regular Mecca Cosmetica email today (their branding/comms team is brill, I love their work) but I'm not sure I'm sold on their most recent 'craze'

Caviar nails by ciate.

Yay or nay?

Neon

Indulged in a little pampering on Sunday with a fabulous pedicure to boost my spirits (thanks Sue!).

Nothing evokes happiness like neon pink nail polish. It was the BEST colour imaginable and I'm sad to cover them up for work.

Have you had parafin wax treatment on your feet before? They come out feeling like baby's skin. Gorgeous.

But back to the colour.

Would love to share a close up with you, but fear my Mother would disown me if I flaunted my 'claws' online. They're not pretty - I take after my Father (so maybe I can hit him up for weekly pedis to keep them under control!?).

But the pink I chose is so pretty. Trust me. Forget the French mani and go with something more daring next time you're playing with colour.

I might have to go for open toe shoes tomorrow . . .
