GOT Polish Challenge: Valentine’s: Red and White Hearts

I’ve actually followed the proper rules for today’s Golden Oldie Thursday (GOT) Polish Challenge. Up until now, I have been using untried polishes, despite the idea about the GOT Polish Challenge being that you showcase not-used-in-a-long-time polishes. So for today, I’ve chosen Rimmel Rapid Ruby as my base colour. It was one of the first […] Read more

GOT Polish Challenge: Green: green water marble

Today’s theme in the Golden Oldie Thursday (GOT) Polish Challenge is about my least favourite colour: green.

Today, my second challenge of the year starts. This is the Golden Oldie Thursday (GOT) Polish Challenge, another Crumpet’s Nail Tarts challenge. The idea is to use loved but rarely used polishes that are more than a year old. I’m definitely going to use polishes that I’ve had for a year or more, but I […] Read more
