I wanted to do a cling film manicure (aka Saran wrap manicure if you’re from the US). I was already wearing a base of Chanel Lilis, so I thought it would be nice to use a complementary colour with it. I checked online, and it seems turquoise and coral are complementary colours. So I added […] Read more
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

Although very soon online retailers were selling cheaper versions of both. And then – for those of us in the UK – MUA […] 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
