nella milano Peach Schnapps

This week’s special offer Nella Milano nail polish is Peach Schnapps, a delicate and soft pale peach. It comes from the Lorescen collection, a collection of four nudes. Nude polish is (once again) very on trend this autumn, so it’s a great time to be showcasing this polish. It was opaque enough for my liking […] Read more

nella milano Fiery Flamenco

On the Nella Milano website, the polish on special offer this week is Fiery Flamenco. Its precise shade is difficult to pin down. It seems to be almost exactly in the middle of red and pink. The name doesn’t help much: flamenco dancers wear mainly – but not exclusively – red dresses. But, they’re often […] Read more

nella milano Summersby

Nella Milano Summersby is the colour of the week and is the current special offer polish on the Nella Milano website. It’s part of the Tyrian collection, a collection of four lilac and purple shades, including two that I have previously swatched: A Royal Affair and Lady Lavender. (Vintage Violet is the fourth polish. I […] Read more

nella milano Cheery Bon Bon

Nella Milano Cheery Bon Bon is this week’s special offer Nella Milano polish. It’s a deep but bright pink that leans slightly to cherry or raspberry. Just the name cheers me up – it’s cheery, as is the polish colour. It’s a really fabulous statement colour that would look great any time of year but […] Read more

nella milano Desert Fox

Today’s swatch is of Nella Milano Desert Fox. It’s a lovely, neutral, warm caramel shade. I think it would be a great polish for interviews, or for if you can only wear subdued colours for work. For me personally, it’ll see a lot of wear to client meetings. (I’m a freelance marketing consultant by day!) […] Read more

nella milano Sweetie Darling

Nella Milano Sweetie Darling is this week’s special offer Nella Milano nail polish. It’s a lovely bright pink; bold and cheery. It comes from the Amador collection, a collection of five pinks and reds. It provided great coverage in two coats. I must apologise that my photos aren’t particularly colour accurate. The colour shown in […] Read more

nella milano Scarlet Heat

This week’s swatch is of Nella Milano Scarlet Heat. It’s a classic red; slightly darker and a touch less orange than The Rubinator. It was good at two coats and they both dried speedily and to a great shine. I really rate Nella Milano polishes. I’ve been so impressed with them. They come in a […] Read more

nella milano Madame Pompadour

This beautiful blue is Nella Milano Madame Pompadour. It is a medium, slightly dusky blue. Some people see it leaning more purple or violet, but it doesn’t look like that on me; it’s just blue. I had no idea after whom it was named, but having looked her up, I now know all about her. […] Read more

nella milano Evergreen

This week’s special offer Nella Milano polish is Evergreen. Aside from mint green and lime green, I don’t particularly like green on my nails. And I’m afraid the same goes for this mossy green too, so I won’t comment too much on the colour. I’m sure it will have its fans and I’ll leave it […] Read more

nella milano Grey Goose

Nella Milano Grey Goose is the colour of the week and the special offer polish on the Nella Milano website. It’s part of the Misty Morning collection, a collection of five white, black and grey polishes. It’s quite a light grey creme. It’s not a particularly summery shade, but with the British weather as it […] Read more
