W7 Africa Bronzer

Hey,

Just had to show you one of my new favourites!

Its W7 Africa, I hadn't really tried much from W7 except the odd nail varnish.
This is a lovely multi tonal bronzer and I managed to get mine for £3.99 at New Look. Now I did see this over on Nicoletta's Blog, check out here post and blog here, and I knew I had to have it. She managed to get her's for £1.99 from Savers, but when I saw this in New Look I decided to just grap it.


As you can see from the image above this isn't to over the top, no big sparkle just lovely shimmery colours. Now for the swatches, firstly just heavily swiped on the left and blended on the right.

Again just applied with my brush to the back on my hand.

I am sorry for the lack of facial shots in the post, I have a big blemish that just looked awful in every picture!


I have been using this everyday since picking it up and I love it. I like it that much that I got one to add to the giveaway which you can still enter here.


Have you tried any W7 products?

W7 Nail Polish

K had previously showed you W7 cosmic Purple, which she picked up at the local Market stall back home that we used to go to when we were in school. They have loads of different basket with polishes in for different prices, £1.00, £1.50 or £2.00.


After my first trip with K, I went back a few days later and picked up a few others,
(Cosmic Blue, Pink Dazzle, Green Dazzle, Purple Pearl and Fluorescent Pink 2)




Cosmic Blue,


This consists of blue, green and silver glitter and only took 2 coats to get a very opaque look to it. This is obviously the blue version of K's and as she has stated previously I would highly recommend a top coats to tidy up the finish.


Pink and Green Dazzle,


These a both simple glitter polishes and in the picture I've applied 2 coats, yet for a good finish I still think they could use another coat. For the price, these aren't bad, but I won't be rushing to use them anytime soon.


Purple Pearl,


This took 3 coats to get an opaque finish and I still wasn't all that impressed. It looked a lot prettier in the bottle than on.


Fluorescent Pink 2,


This was actually purchased by the future step daughters. It's right up their alley - nice and bright! I actually loved the finish with this one. I got a nice streak free look with just 2 coats and the colour was very strong.


Only problem I actually have is that they smell really strong - not like any polish I've tried before. Strange.


We managed to pick these up for £1.50, however they seem to sell for around £3.99 to £4.99 on ebay.


I'm definitely going to go for another look in the £1.50 basket when I'm at home next.
