Norwex And A Giveaway!!!!!


Have you heard of Norwex? Am I the first to tell you about it? I hope so (giggle) =D. I happen to love Norwex products and have seen the rags in action many times. I own a few and can't wait to get more! They last forever and are SUPER effective at cleaning everything. The first time I was introduced to them I was super skeptical. I mean, really? A rag that can clean with just water and can disinfect itself within 24 hours? Sounds too good to be true right? RIGHT! Fast forward to NOW and I am convinced. What were the key factors in my conversion you ask? Well! 1. At my first party I took the challenge to wash all my makeup off with just water.....it WORKED!!! (I had even done a super smokey eye that day) and 2. (prepare yourself) Raw chicken was rubbed on the counter (gross) then swabbed so we could see the bacteria. Then it was cleaned with a Norwex rag (using only water) and swabbed again...CLEAN!!!! No bacteria, nothing!!! I love that I can give them to my son to wash toilets and not have to worry about chemicals. I can hang it to dry and in 24 hours it's ready to use again. I know, I know that sounds disGUSTing but I saw a cloth that had been used a ton swabbed and it was clean! Seeing is believing ladies. Click here to see and also watch the video below on how I wash my makeup off with the body rag.

Spring Nail!









I like to start with a light sheer colour on my nails to begin with 
and I love Oxygen By China Glaze.
I apply a really light sheer coat before I apply my colour.

Colour:
Two of my favourite colours at the moment - 

               "Rose Libertine" By Rimmel                         "How do you lilac it" By Rimmel 














As much as I love these shade  I ♡ them even more 
When I apply Innocence by China Glaze 
over the top! 





Which got me thinking, do you layer your polishes to create your own unique shade?? 
and if you had

to give your shade a name what would you call it??
