BLACK & GOLD SKITTLES NAILS

I very rarely do skittle nails. mainly because I don't have enough ideas for 5 different nails

Well this mani started with Mac Nocturnelle and  gold holographic striping tape (which is really fiddly and lost all holoness and some of it's colour with topcoat) which I applied in a criss cross way on my pointy finger and because that nail alone took like 10 mins, I decided to use the bullion beads on my desk for my middle finger and then I used Barry M gold foil to stamp the necklaces and used Milani Gold Gems to create a shiny gemstone on the necklace and then once I'd sat for 10 minutes clueless as to what do on my pinky I did a gradient with milani gems ! 

Well that's a right tale, I hope you like the final effect, I do : )

GOSH GALAXY

Hey Ladies, I'm sooo excited to show you this polish, I bought it about a week ago and have been desperate to show you this beauty! 

This is part of Gosh's Autumn 2012 collection, I hadn't seen anything about these before I saw them in store but when I did a bit of researching when I got home I did find some press release pictures and stuff but I couldn't find anything about the other new releases which I also got quite a few of too. I think the re-release  of 549 has just stolen all the thunder and the other polishes have kind of been over looked. 

Anyways on to the polish, It's a glitter which gives a foily look and has gorgeous blue, yellow, pink particles (I'm not sure if it's glitter of shimmer or what ! ) It's a gorgeous fall polish and has a subtle but beautiful duochrome to it too, I've read that other people haven't been able to see the duochrome but I could definitely see it and I was oohing and aaahing all day! 

It has a yellowy look in the middle of the nail/bottle and then a purpley colour round the edges ! 

So the swatches below are 3 coats ! Beautiful formula oh just a beautiful polish overall 

So Sparkly ! 

Pinky/purple 

Sigh, this polish has definitely stolen my heart, I haven't seen anything like it, It does however remind me of the new nopi fall polishes which are equally gorgeous ! 

So, you guys have you got this? Will you get it if it you see it? Yess you can't leave this !

APPLE MOUSE NAILS

Hi guys, ok so today's nails I thought I'd try the cute nails that were floating on pinterest a while a ago, yep it took me ages to get round to it. 

So just before I nubbified my nails I thought I'd round them off and try it out, it didn't work out as well as I'd hoped, but it wasn't a total disaster either ! I can kind of see a mouse if I squint, maybe you can too ? Loll  ! 

And this is the pinterest image ! 

I took this off pretty much straight away mainly because I don't like my nails round anymore ! Anyway so what do you guys think?

GOSH - GREEN HAWAII

So, I'm really trying to go through my untrieds which is why I have this on today ! Tbh I'm not a big fan of this polish, it might grow on me but I'm not sure ; / The formula though is really good, this is 2 coats (I think) 

Sorry  I couldn't show you the holo properly but the sun doesn't like showing it's face when I need it to ! 

Well do you guys like this?

CHINA GLAZE VI FROM ANNIVERSARY COLLECTION

Finally our internet is working again, and I'm soo glad !

So, I picked this up rescued this beauty from a friend who was going to throw it out ! And boy, I'm soo glad I did, it would have been a crime to throw away such an amazing polish ! 

So this is called VI and it's from the 2007 Anniversary collection, It's like a deep rusty coral loaded with gorgeous gorgeous shimmer which looks as good on the nail as it does in the bottle ! The formula is amazing, it glides on and this is 2 coats below, the shimmer can give the polish an orangey/yellowy feel under some lighting, but whatever it's gorgeous ! 

I really think it suited me too :) Let me know what you guys think of this, do any of you have this oldie and do you love it as much as me?

ASYMMETRICAL TIPS

Hi guys, hope your all doing well, I don't really have much time to talk today we are heading out for dinner soon but I'm posting this now because our internet isn't working properly and randomly stops working for as long as it wants !

 Anyway onto nail business, this was just a random, see how it turns out kind of mani, I started off with 2 coats of Essence  Got a secret (which is my favourite grey creme !) Then I used striping tape and painted on the green bits with Essence Lime up (which is another of my favourite creme's) and then I used Barry M turquoise to paint on the other blue tips, I was impatient with this mani which is why it's not looking so good but that's it really, simple and cute  : ) 

I'm not going to enlarge these pics guys because up close my cuticles look soo dry, it's just awful & distracting !
