I don’t feel I’ve done today’s Never-ending Pile challenge justice. The theme is “had to have it, still haven’t worn it” and I have loads of polishes that perfectly fit the brief that I could have used: Max Factor Fantasy Fire, KBShimmer Snow Way, OPI Ski Teal We Drop, A England Order Of The Garter, […] Read more
Graffiti Nails is a new brand of polish that launched last month. Popular blogger, Alice, of One Nail To Rule Them All, is involved with the brand, which currently comprises thirteen polishes, a base coat and a top coat. There are plans to introduce other nail art items, and to bring tutorials and video guides […] Read more
For today’s indie prompt in the Never-ending Pile challenge, I had so many polishes to choose from, and went with one I’ve been dying to wear, but just somehow haven’t got around to: Scofflaw This Must Be The Place. It’s a cream coloured base with pink and purple micro-glitters and small gold flakies. It’s very […] Read more
I had three untried jelly polishes to choose from for today’s Never-ending Pile challenge. I went with OPI Excuse Moi!, which came from the Muppets collection that was released at Christmas 2011. I wasn’t even into painting my nails then (I got hooked in the summer of 2012), but I bought this just recently, in […] Read more
It’s time for a random untried in the Never-ending Pile challenge. And I’ve used two for this one! My first untried is the purple: Rimmel Purple Reign. It’s a lovely shade of purple that has an almost imperceptible gold shimmer to it. You can only see it really close up and it doesn’t seem to […] Read more
I’m starting another challenge today. This one is the brainchild of Missy from Gnarly Nails, and is being run through her Glittah Pirates Facebook group. It’s the The Never-ending Pile challenge and the quest is to use up all those untried polishes we addicts hoard. As at today, I have 229 unworn polishes. That represents […] Read more
Superdrug is celebrating 50 years of trading, and they’ve a few brands helping them to do that. I know there are some limited edition GOSH polishes, and Barry M has a limited edition polish also. It’s aptly called Superdrug Birthday (NPSDB) and is pink to reflect the brand’s colour. It has a mix of tiny, […] Read more
I was wearing Nails Inc Big Apple Red, which came as a freebie in December 2013’s Glamour magazine. And, as is usual for me with Nails Inc polishes, it had chipped. I was going to remove it, but instead decided to touch up the chips and add a glitter topper. This is Magic Goose Reindeer […] Read more
I wore this manicure back in the middle of February – for my birthday, as it happens. I started off just wearing L’Oréal Mystic Blue as it’s one of my favourite polishes. We were staying away for a few days – my birthday falls in half term week every year – and I’d been treated […] Read more
I was wearing Pacific, which is the blue-green ducochrome from the new Barry M Aquarium collection, and I was all ready to test out some nail tattoos that I had been sent by Fake Tattoos. I received two packs of tattoos, with various designs on them, including birds, fish, anchors, ice-creams, palm trees and boats. […] Read more
