Lady Gaga - Fame (Black Fluid)

I got the Lady Gaga perfume!
I bought the smallest bottle because the big one was pretty damn expensive and I tend to get bored with my perfumes easily.
This one is 30 ml/1.0 Fl. Oz.
I bought it at Planet Parfum. Can't remember the exact price, but you'll get a discount if you have a membership card. :)


“Tears of Belladonna, crushed heart of tiger orchidea, with a black veil of incense, pulverized apricot, and, the combinative essences of saffron and honey drops.”- What it smells like according to the description on the box
Another fun fact: I read that this contains Gaga's DNA!
“It was taken out of my own blood sample, so it’s a sense of having me on your skin. I wanted to extract sort of the feeling and sense of blood and semen from molecular structures, so that’s where [the rumors] came from. That is in the perfume, but it doesn’t smell like that. Actually, the perfume smells like an expensive hooker.”

Awesome, now I have Gaga's DNA on  my skin and hair! =D
There have also been rumors about the 'Tears of Belladonna', something about a poisonous ingredient...
And oh, semen? Yes, I must really smell like an expensive hooker right now! :)
I like this perfume so far, I expected it to be a bit more spicy (Like Gaga) and less sweet. Dissapointed is not the word I'm looking for here... I just had a different idea of the smell, but I like it very much nonetheless! :)

H&M Nail polish!

I didn't know H&M had such cool nail polishes!
A few months ago, I started noticing these H&M nail polishes popping up in all H&M stores in my area. I have to admit, at first I wasn't sure about trying them because I was worried about a few things:
Will they damage my nails?
How is the quality, what's the lasting power?
Will they chip after a few days?

When I noticed the price (€ 2,95), I decided to try. What's the big deal?
Needless to say, I was surprised! 
The polishes are looking great on my nails, I've gotten alot of compliments already, and the lasting power is pretty good! (I do use a top coat by Rimmel)
I didn't get all the colors, but these are the ones that I got:
 Left: Zoo - Right: City
Left: Into the wild - Right: Back by noon

I've only the glittery ones so far, but I'm excited to try the other 2 as well.
I know these polishes are meant to be used together (the glitter as top coat), but I wanted to try them separately.
They both come in a pack of 2. So it's €2,95 for the 2 together (as shown in the picture)

The only thing I don't really like is that the glittery ones are hard to remove. But I have to mention that they didn't damage my nails! I didn't use any topcoat with these ones. :)

Additional info:
- 0.2 fl. oz. / 7ml
- Formaldehyde free? Not sure, couldn't find any info, be careful!
