Surprise Polish

Hi Girlies!

Yesterday I went back to Boots to pick up some more Barry M Shatter colours for a swap and discovered Models Own have released 2 shatter colours, Black and Silver!
I picked up the Silver as I already have Black and was really surprised to see it has fine shimmer/glitter to it! Its very pretty :)

Look at the gorgeous Sun shining in! I love it :)

This cost £6 at Boots, they are currently doing 3 for 2 on Models Own which I didn't know at the time D'Oh!

I will do swatches of it soon, I am currently swatching my Barry M collection to start showing you all my stash and swatches to get everything up to date on here

Essie Crackle Mani

Hi dolls

As promised here is the look I done last night with my new Barry M crackle polish

I used Essie Perky Purple which I recently got in a swap with MyLucidBubble, if you don't know who she is go check her out she is awesome :)
Click here to check her out!!!

The essie dries matte and is a really pretty colour after 2 coats the first coat went on badly but the second is amazing :) After the 2 coats I topped it off with the white crackle and this is the look I got I love it :) The only negative about this is that the crackle seemed to pull the base coat along with and kind of cracked the base too? very strange but I will definitely be trying more combos out soon

Hope you like it

Long awaited MINI Haul!!!

Hi Dolls

Eventually today I managed to pick up the new Barry M shatter colours!!
Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!!!

Can you feel my excitement lol, I went straight from Boots to work and swatched them haha!

The Blue is a lot lighter than the pic shows, sorry for the bad quality I took the pic with my Ipod :(

I got them on 3 for 2 at Boots so paid £7.98 for all 3 bottles :)

I am currently doing a mani with the white and will show pics tomorrow in sunlight as its now dark and pics will be horrible

Have any of you picked these up yet? what do you think which is your fave??

Free Hand Audrey Leopards :)

Hi all!

after a few times of attempting leopard print and failing badly i finally managed some that I am happy with, I also done a pedi in a different colour combo but I am not getting up outta bed to show you that right now I will take a pic later hehe :)

Here is my current mani which I will be taking off tonight and doing something new.

I used China Glaze "For Audrey" as the base, Black striper pen from ebay and a Poundworld Silver polish for the dots.

I would highly recommend anyone living in the UK to get that silver from Poundland if you can I am in love with it and have used it in so many manis already, I have been stalking my pound shop waiting on them getting a new delivery so i can pick up a backup (or two hehe)

Hope you all like this :)

Under Construction

Hi guys

I firstly just want to say hello to all my new followers Welcome! :)

Secondly this blog is pretty sparse at the minute and that is because i am debating whether to close this one and remake a brand new blog with more structure as this one looks messy to me!

Let me know what you all think? I am hoping to have either a new one or this one cleaned up by the end of this week so any thoughts are appreciated

Bye for now
