This is the second of the two SpaRitual polishes I am showing in collaboration with three other bloggers (see the links below for their swatches). This is Last Tango. It’s a bright, slightly pink-leaning coral and is part of the Instinctual collection. Last Tango is quite sheer and I used four thin coats for this […] Read more
I am really excited to show you a new (to me) brand, SpaRitual. I have two polishes to show today and tomorrow, and then on Thursday I have some nail art using both polishes, plus a UK giveaway where you can win the two polishes plus a SpaRitual Multi-Tasker Base & Topcoat. I’m tying up […] Read more
The base colour of Beyond is not very summery; it’s a very dark grey … almost black but not quite. But it’s holographic, which absolutely is summery. Having said that, the sun isn’t out very much today, so I had to quickly grab a photo while I could. This polish is one of the 2013 […] Read more
I wanted to add something to my Blue Grape manicure, and decided on a gradient. Ordinarily when doing a gradient manicure, I will start with a base coat of the lightest colour, and then sponge on both the light and dark colours together. But I didn’t do that as I was already wearing the darker […] Read more
Blue Grape is the final polish I’m wearing from the summer Gelly Hi-Shine collection. It’s a vibrant cobalt blue and lovely and glossy, as is the case with all the Gelly Hi-Shine polishes. The colour is very similar to Nails Inc. Baker Street, but it’s shinier and has more depth. I do love the colour […] Read more
I won a giveaway! It’s the first one I’ve won. I’ve entered loads, so I’m so excited to have won this one. It was hosted by the lovely Inky (she does have a real name, but she chooses not to use it on her blog, so I won’t disclose it) of Inky Whiskers Musings. She […] Read more
I am so busy at the moment, and have been since my son broke up from school a week ago, that I do not have as much time to do my nails at the moment. I’m desperate to do some nail art. I have some gradients with stamping in mind, plus some colour combinations for […] Read more
Sally Hansen The Sky’s The Limit, which has been on my nails since Wednesday, is very close in colour to the background of a pretty floral top I have. Inspired by that, I decided to try to recreate the pattern (somewhat) on my nails. I used my Barry M White Nail Art Pen for the […] Read more
Back in February when I bought this polish, I thought it was a bit too bright and summery for the miserable weather we were having. So it’s only just making an outing now. This is a fabulous colour – so bold and bright; a real sky blue of a blue. The last time I used […] Read more
I recently bought Sakura from Sally Magpies, along with three other Emily de Molly polishes. This is the one that I chose first when I was buying them, as I loved it so much. I love the simplicity of the colour scheme, and I love round glitters. My son used to go to school with […] Read more
