I created and wore this manicure straight away, which is a very rare thing for me to do. Normally, I will wear a plain colour, then after a day or two will look to jazz it up somehow by adding other colours. But I saw this manicure on Pinterest and was immediately inspired to recreate […] Read more
I think this polish may just have gone to number one spot for me. I love blue and I especially love turquoise. And this is the most perfect shade of turquoise ever. It’s not too green (I really don’t much like green) and it’s not too dark. Absolutely spot on I think. As with all […] Read more
Last night I added to my red manicure with some black chevron tips. They weren’t too bad, but I smudged the black in one place when I top-coated them, and a few of my lines weren’t perfectly straight either. Because of that, I took it off even before it had dried. I had a business […] Read more
In case you didn’t know, exclusive UK distributor of OPI polishes, Lena White, is having a sale. So I just had to get My Boyfriend Scale Walls – an off-white that everyone raves about. I also looked for one on my wishlist, Ski Teal We Drop, but that’s not in the sale. But I also love the […] Read more
I have one of the new Toppers top coats to show today. This is Top Secret and is one of 20 universal gel top coats that can be used to transform a gel manicure. I’ve used Bluesky A24 as the base, a plain navy gel polish. Once I’d cured the two coats, I added the […] Read more
Here’s the full Red Carpet Manicure Off To The Premiere collection for AW19. It’s a gorgeous collection of six gel polishes in a range of autumnal and winter colours. I have mainly used two coats for each of these polishes. They all had a great coverage with just those two coats, except for the blue, […] Read more
This pretty shade is Magic Hana Rainy Day; a one-step gel polish. I do love a one-step gel polish. No base, no top coat, no wiping. Just a few coats of colour and you’re ready to go. It’s so quick and so easy. So many times, I’ve removed my polish and haven’t had much time […] Read more
I’ve been trying out some Pink Gellac gel polishes, including this one, Pink Gellac Dynamic Pink. I’ve heard of the brand before – and I remember a US blogger who has always highly rated them. But I hadn’t really seen them in the UK, so they sort of passed me by. But I wish I’d […] Read more
These blue geometric glitter nails were inspired by a manicure I saw by Paulina of Paulina’s Passions. I saw it and thought I’d love to create something similar but using blue – but I don’t like my manicure half as much as I like hers. I think it’s probably because the glitter is more prominent on […] Read more
I kind of missed the chrome nails fad. I was so busy at the end of 2016 and the beginning of 2017 that I took a bit of a step back from blogging. In retrospect, it was a good move and it allowed me to have a bit of a break rather than burn out, […] Read more
