Christmas goodies: MUA, Denman, and other beauty bits

Wow has been a while! Have been so busy over Christmas as I work in retail so little time off for blogging. And my boyfriend was back from Switzerland only for 2 weeks so I'm afraid he was the priority!

Feel like it's a bit late for a Christmas post, but what the hell. Was very impressed with how well 'Father Christmas' [ha] did this year. I got so many things that were a lovely surprise and things I had my eye on.

First off, the opening of the stocking. In here were my usual beauty bits: cute Minnie Mouse emery boards, make up wipes, fake tan mitt- all the essentials. As well as...the nail buddy! Which I had even done a post about not too long ago [lolz]. I also got the Denman dress out brush. Though it looks somewhat like a shoe or nail brush, it makes back combing a hell of a lot easier for someone who is terrible with hair i.e. me

Nail Buddy :D

There was a little box under the tree that I was very intrigued by, as I didn't really know what I was getting this year. It was a lovely surprise and very thoughtful of my mother- a collection of nail bits and pieces such as the MUA nail constellations,which may be old hat for bloggers, but something I never got around to buying for myself. Also inside were a selection of Barry M polishes, OPI's 'Skull and Glossbones' which I've wanted forever, nail decals and two double ended nail art pens, one end a pen, the other filled with rhinestones to decorate nails with. I was really touched to realise how much my dear old mum actually puts up with me wittering on about my nail obsessions.

Assorted nail bits - cheers Ma :) 

Now I have to start thinking about a birthday wish list (only a month away!)
