Glitter Gradient

Hey! Today I have for you a glitter gradient! I've been waiting all day for the sun to shine so I could take a decent picture, but alas Mr Sun decided to stay behind the clouds so you can't see the holo goodness of the glitter. The silver glitter is Models Own Juicy Jules and the purple is Accessorize Ruby Sparkle. I can tell you now, I'm REALLY excited to take all this glitter off :P

Sparkling Pink Wednesday

First off, this is an old mani (as my camera is lost and I've searched everywhere for it, I bet one of my dogs has taken it...) and there's really not that much pink and it's technically Thursday... but anyway, happy Pink Wednesday! The base is Models Own Juicy Jules, but I guess I didn't take any pictures of this in direct sunlight as you can't see the AMAZING holo glitter that this polish is and then I put some super cute fimo canes on top. This one has to be my favourite out of all the canes, pink and flowery, win win!



I'm wearing my fake nails here, I miss them :(

Ombre nails!

I've been loving all the ombre looks Sonja at Happily Polished has posted and really wanted to give it ago, so here's my go at it, I think her ombre looks turned out better than mine though.


Then in the evening, as my nails were looking worse for wear, I put Models Own Smash-Up Silver, which shatters no where near as good as Barry M, so disappointing. 


Colours from thumb to little finger:
Blue Moon - Barry M
Blueberry Ice Cream - Barry M
Cyan Blue - Barry M
Cobalt Blue - Barry M
Navy - Barry M
Then I put Maybelline Express Finish Diamonds - Flash Cosmic (which gives the weird blue glow) then topped it off with a matte topcoat. 

How ugly are my nails now they're short?! I had to take off my fake nails as unpacking with them was just annoying! 3 days and I'm no where near finished! So depressing.

That's so fetch!

Another pink Wednesday is here! I used the nail polish I brought yesterday, Models Own Pink Fever and the NYC glitter, and here it is:

Without flash, sorry for the blur!

With flash.

I would have taken it in sunlight, but there is none, hah! And it also looks more purple than pink, but oh well.

Goodies I Brought Today!

Even though I said I wouldn't, I did go out and buy some nail polish, oops! Wasn't many nail polishes I wanted luckily, so I only brought 4 and I forgot to buy a clear topcoat which was the main reason I went out. Annoying! Will have to buy one tomorrow. So, here's what I brought:


The first one is Pink Fever and the photo really doesn't do it justice, it's such a gorgeous colour! The middle one is a crackle polish, hopefully it will crack as well as the Barry M ones and not be a complete disappointment like the 17 crackle. And last but not least is just a glitter top coat, I already brought this a month or so ago, but I lost it, so as it's cheap I brought another one. 

Now the 4th nail polish I brought deserves its own picture because, well, I think I'm in love! I never normally look at the NYC nail polishes, because I don't like how they apply, but today I thought why not have a browse and I saw this and had to have it, it must have been fate as it was the last one! Result!


It's silver glitter then blue and light purple bigger glitter things! It's amazing and a nightmare to try to photograph, haha. 

I also got these in the post today and as you can tell, I was clearly more excited about these than my new polishes, because what kind of girl doesn't love maths books more than polish!

Silver Obsessed

So I just found these 2 pictures on my SD card, why I didn't move them accross to my lappytop is a mystery, but since they look pretty darn good I though I'd post them.


I love love LOVE silver with black shatter, it has to be my fav look to do with the black shatter. I could wear it all day everyday and never get bored of it, that's how much I love it!

Awkward hand pose is awkward. 

So I don't normally buy models own nail polish, but I'm a sucker for glittah and just had to have it. Unfortunately the picture doesn't do the nail polish justice, but in real life it's mega sparkly and I love it.

I'm planning on trying the marbling effect on my nails today, need to buy some fake nails first though to practice on! I really hope it works out well and looks super cool as I am sooooo excited about trying the technique!!!
