I love the postman!

Look what he brought me!!

Been waiting for these bad boys to come. Models Own did a great job of shipping quickly considering the amount of orders they had.

L-R Buff Pink, Pink Punch, Lemon Meringue, Top Turquoise

I have never owned any of these polishes before and have heard such good reviews on them that I thought why not purchase £20 worth of products for a tenner in the sale??

It'd be rude not to really...

Anyway I am really pleased I did. These polishes are like a dream, sorry Mr M (Barry) I think you may have been replaced. 

These polishes glide on so smoothly, none of the gloopyness of Barry M products. To me Barry M seems rather a thick polish now I have been converted.

I used two coats on each and acheived these results.

Pink Punch

Buff Pink

Lemon Meringue

Top Turquoise

Pink Punch is a bright neon colour, which I am going to use to brighten up my autumn wardrobe. I know its not an autumn colour but who cares?? 

Buff pink is a gorgeous light pink colour that I think I will get away with wearing for work. 

Lemon Meringue - well i just love this!

and Top turquoise, not what i'd usually go for but again such good quality i love it...

and if thats not exciting enough for you check these out too!

Oh yes, i got some violent lips! 

These were a very late birthday pressie from my friend but its so worth the wait. I can't show you them on because you only get 3 applications for £10.50 and it would be a waste just to put them on to so my dissertation in. The main reason for purchase was to wear when i go see Ms Katy Perry in October, but if I wear them before then i'll be sure to review and show you guys.. I can't wait now..

This is what you get in the pack. There is a simple how to video on the website about how to fix your lips to make them look perfect and I can't wait to try them.

NailEase

I bought some nailease nail art strips from ebay the other day.

I heard about them from a few various other blogs, and thought they looked cool, I wanted to try some myself.

So off I totteled to ebay... and found myself a lovely packet of Gold Nailease nail wraps.

They came quite quickly, but not quickly enough.
 I was off for 4 days from work so I wanted them on the friday morning.
But nevermind they came the saturday.
So off with the old nail varnish, on with the Nailease

In the pack you get 20 nail adhesive strips in different sizes.
People are saying there is enough for two applications with these, but that would mean using the too big or too small sizes on your nails.
I think there are 20 in the pack to give you a size range.

Anyway I picked my sizes, and lined them all up nicely.

Buffed my nails with the (rather crap) buffer that comes with the nail strips.

and away i went.

Well Horaay!! how bloody brilliant are these!

it went on so easy, just hold the silver tip, stretch over your nail, file off the excess with the (rather crap) nail file that comes with it. and hey presto!
lovely gorgeous shiny nails, with no mess, smell (only a little bit as they are real polish) or drying time!

Uber impressed!

I wore these from saturday morning to this monday morning and only had minimal tip wear, which was hardly noticeable.

They would of easily lasted a whole week I am sure!

Only worrying thing is the price..

 at £5..99 for in my opinion one application of polish.

It is rather pricey... however for that special occasion, or holidays where your nail polish gets too hot and goes gloopy, this is a very good buy!

Anyway I was raving about these, then popped into my local boots store to pick up some hedex tablets, when just innocently browsing the makeup counter, I saw some GOSH Nail Glitter...

Well "what is this?" I wondered.

So I bought it...

naturally..

It basically is a little pot of glitter for £3.99

The glitter is very fine, and the packet reads on the back...

- apply a clear nail lacquer to your nails  (i used my barry m base coat, top coat and nail hardener)

- dip your nail in the small jar of glitter before the clear polish dries up
( i didn't dip my finger into the pot I used the seperate lid that came with it to get a small amount of the glitter and sprinkle it over my lacquered nail)

- brush off the excess glitter (which consisted of tapping the excess off)

and hey! you have gorgeous glamourous glitter nails

and to be honest these look amazing!

I have only just taken my nailease off and thought I'd try this whilst sat doing nothing..

and to be honest I didn't have very high hopes for it..

 but I did my whole hand just to show you how amazing it is!!

It may look more messy than the nail ease, but as it is real glitter it definatly shines more, has a texture to it, and you can have as much or as little as you like on it,

 never mind mentioning all the different colour possibilities!!

Basically I would buy this product over the nailease strips for glittery nails as it is a fraction of the price considering how little you actually need to use!

Oh and no drying time either!!

All in all a very successful nail varnishing weekend!

My pink & gold Nails

I saw a style like this in one of my fashion mags, and thought i'd try it out for myself.

In the mag they used a gold nail art pen, which I dont own, so before hopping to the shop to buy one, thought I would see if I liked the effect by using my gold nail polish which I have had for so long that I have no idea where it came from or what make as it has all worn off the bottle!!

Anyway I am pleased with the results, the left hand is better than the right (i will master the left handed nail painting technique!)

I think a finer brush or a nail art pen would look fabulous and glam, but I love this rough look too!

I can tell you I used Barry M in "Pale Pink" as the base colour, however for the gold... no idea!! sorry!
