Nail Polish Wednesday | #85 & #86

So I apologise for not posting my nail polish Wednesday last week as I was at football watching my team lose sadly to our nearest rivals.

NYC - Midtown Mink
This is a deep brown shade. It is just your general crème polish that is great for nail art. I have swatched this for and it was very patchy but I am sure I can work with it. Maybe as it is coming to the winter months it will be used more often I reckon.
Miss Sporty - Pink
This has a name somewhere but it isn't on the bottle. This annoys me as I always need to know what the name of the polish is. This colour is very me as I am a sucker for a pink nail polish. I mean I don't need anymore pinks really do I. But it is such a lovely shade.

Nailbox | July 2015

This is the July 'Tropical Treats' nailbox. This was supposed to be posted ages ago but I never got round too doing it. But anyway better than ever aye.
This is what the box this month looked like. I love this box, so lets get into talking about the contents of this July nailbox.
First of all, we got a Elegant Touch Nail Apothecary Cuticle Eliminator. Before I started getting intrested in nail blogs I never really understood cuticles. *cringes and hides at that comment* But it is true, I am already using a cuticle oil so I might try this out in the future. Onto the exciting part nail polishes. This is a beautiful baby pink OPI Kiss Me Im Brazilian, I believe this was from the Brazil collection from the world cup collection I believe. I can't wait to use this for the summer maybe. The next polish is BarryM Speedy Quick Dry Need For Speed, this is such a beautiful shade. A creme base which would look perfect with some flowers over the top. The last polish is from China Glaze and this is a new brand to my collection which i am super excited by. It is white on white, we always need a white in the collection.
This is the nail art part too it. So i have never heard of this brand it is MoYou London Nail Plate. This is used for stamping and its from the tropical collection in number 12. I cannot wait to use this as I have already been on the MoYou London website and I am ready to be picking up so many plates. We also got a stamper and scraper too use. I can't wait too use this as i have so many ideas for this one already.

A Nail Polish Wishlist #95

I am sorry that I haven't posted since my last wishlist. I missed my nail polish Wednesday as I was at football. I have got so many posts for you that are ready to be up soon.

Polishes Mentioned:
1. Topshop - Matte - Affirm - £6.00
2. Topshop - Matte - Unfold - £6.00
3. Topshop - Matte - Publish - £6.00
4. Topshop - Sweet Treat - £6.00
5. Topshop - Legendary - £6.00
6. Topshop - Myth - £6.00
 
Why I Want These Polishes?
1. Topshop - Matte - Affirm - This is a light blue/lilac shade. This comes in a matte nail polish. This would be perfect for the spring starting of the summer time. I haven't tried a matte nail polish from them even though I do have one in my collection.
 
2. Topshop - Matte - Unfold - This is a minty grey shade too it. I really love it and I feel that it is beautiful. This looks like a mint pistachio ice cream. I just love it and it would be such a spring shade or even involved in an ombre.

3. Topshop - Matte - Publish - This is a coconut shade, a light brown really. This is such a hard shade to explain because I haven't really seen many swatches of this. But I love it and I thought the name of it is really cute.

4. Topshop - Sweet Treat - This is a green and black glitter particles in a clear base. I love this shade it is so pretty and different to any one I have in my collection. Topshop have some fantastic glitters they do very well in that department.

5. Topshop - Legendary - Now this is such a winter shade glitter. It has got purple, pink and blue glitter particles in another clear base. This would be perfect over a black base so the glitters can stand out. It has different shapes of glitter as well which I love.

6. Topshop - Myth  - I am in love with this nail polish. I am unsure if they still even sell this polish though. It is lilac and gold pieces of foil glitter. I love this and I really need this in my collection now. I don't even know what I could do with this glitter but I just love it.

A Nail Polish Wishlist #94

Once again I have been really quiet this week, I have been busy. But I have got an actual post that needs to be up of my nailbox as well.

Polishes Mentioned:
1. Glow In The Dark - Unsure on brand or price
2. Topshop - Prince Blue Blood - £6.00
3. Rimmel - No Tan Lines Here - £3.99
4. Maybelline - Lime Me Up - £4.99
5. BarryM - Pink Sequin - £3.99
 
Why I Want These Polishes?
1. Glow In The Dark - I quite like the idea of a glow in the dark nail polish. I am such a sucker for different nail polishes that are out of the ordinary. But this does look quite cool.

2. Topshop - Prince Blue Blood - I do love topshop nail polishes. This is such a pretty colour. It took me ages to find this picture when I was looking through Google. There wasn't a single swatch on this which really bugged me. I just love it.
 
3. Rimmel - No Tan Lines Here - I have this nail polish as I already have it. I just love it and I haven't even worn it yet sadly. I have way too many nail polishes that I haven't worn before. But I want every rimmel nail polish.
 
4. Maybelline - Lime Me Up - This needs to be in my collection. I don't care I have so many green nail polishes. But this needs to be in my hands soon because I am a sucker for a lime green. But this looks so cool and I love it so much. The name is so cool as well.
 
5. BarryM - Pink Sequin - I do love BarryM nail polishes as you all know. But this looks so cool, bit of an unusual polish for me. I do like it and I reckon it would be sooo hard to get off your nails.

Nail Polish Wednesday | #83 & #84

This is nail polish Wednesday so lets see what polishes we have got this week.

Models Own - Dancing Queen
This glitter is amazing. I wore it in my last currently wearing actually. I am huge fan of this. Models Own is my favourite brand and if I could every nail polish they have made. I happily would have them all really.
 
Circle Top - Red
I am sure you all know that I don't really like red nail polishes. so red nail polishes are a no go for me. I will use them when I do some nail art as Christmas it always comes in handy.

A Nail Polish Wishlist #93

I am currently on a spending ban, how long this lasts I wouldn't even know. So lets see what I have got on here for you.

Polishes Mentioned:
1. Sally Hansen - Pink Grapefruit - £2.99
2. Sally Hansen - Purple Heart - £6.99
3. Sally Hansen - Fruitti Petutie - £6.99
4. Sally Hansen - Glare Necessitie - £6.99
5. Sally Hansen - Plum Luck - £6.99
6. Sally Hansen - Copper Penny - £6.99
 
Why I Want These Polishes?
1. Sally Hansen - Pink Grapefruit - I already own this polish. I have to say I don't understand the name of this polish because it isn't pink its purple. But I am not really sure how I would be able to pull this off as it is very much of an opaque nail polish.
 
2. Sally Hansen - Purple Heart - This is such a spring shade, shame we are into autumn almost. But this is such a lovely colour and I love it. I may need to pick this up when I am not on a spending ban of course. Yes I will keep myself from buying. Not sure how long this will work.
 
3. Sally Hansen - Frutti Petutie - The name of this polish sounds like a yogurt of something like that. I don't know why it came in my head that's what it would sound like. It is a beautiful bright pink and I am sure that I have so many of these shades already in my collection.
 
4. Sally Hansen - Glare Necessitie - Well done to sally Hansen for coming up with the name of this nail polish possibly one of the best ones ever. I love it so much and I just need this polish in my life as I feel like I am missing out on this one.
 
5. Sally Hansen - Plum Luck - So autumn is upon us very soon, so the dark shades are coming out now. I do love this shade as it is so pretty and the name of it is gorgeous.
 
6. Sally Hansen - Copper Penny - This polish is so cool. This would look amazing on a nude shade and it could look like leaves. Why do I have this in my head already and I don't even own it.

Nail Polish Wednesday | #81 & #82

This is nail polish Wednesday once again and I have two polishes for you. As I have over 400+ nail polishes so I reckon I wouldn't want to bore you to be honest.
AVON - Grape Goddess
I love this nail polish, but I cant remember if I have ever worn it before. It is so pretty and such a warm pink tone which is slightly strange. But I am not sure when I can wear this again but I reckon this would be perfect with a nail polish to use a sponge.
ELF - Rosy Raisin
I have worn this a while back and I really liked it. This is so pretty and I do love a pink nail polish. Also ELF nail polishes are very good and it is one of my favourite brands. This is another warm tone pink shade.

Currently Wearing | #59

So this post needed to be up ages but I completely forgot about it. I have just taken my nail polish off the other night.


This is the Ciate Palm Tree and over the top I wore Models Own - Dancing Queen. I have to say I like this nail polish as I am a sucker for a green nail polish. I am always drawn to them but I have to say I am very disappointed once I took it off. It stained the whole of my nails, yes they are currently green. I am thinking about doing a post on disappointing products as that would be cool.

A Nail Polish Wishlist #92

This is a Primark themed wishlist this week. Primark does amazing nail stuff and I would defiantly recommend you go and look in their for the nail polishes and all the goodies they have.
                                    

Polishes Mentioned:
1. Primark - False Nails - £1.00
2. Primark - Nail Polish - Pink - £1.00
3. Primark - PS Love - Twist Pot Remover - £1.00
4. MUA - Peel Off Polish - £2.00

Why I Want These Polishes?
1. Primark - False Nails - I have a pack of false nails and I have no idea why. Just because my nails are so long anyway and I guess I fancied trying something new. I really love the designs of some of these as they are adorable.

2. Primark - Nail Polish - Pink - I already have this nail polish and I love it. I have to say that I am not keen on the bottles because are quite chunky but I do like the colours. So I may head out and have a look at some more colours.

3. Primark - PS Love - Twist Pot Remover - I already own this too. I quite like it but it doesn't really take glitter nail polish off which bugs me because I love glitter polish. But I will still give it ago.

4. MUA - Peel Off Polish - So I have the miss sporty one and I am not sure about it. But MUA would be a cool one to use as it would be completely different. The Miss Sporty is a pva glue and this looks more like water than anything.

Currently Wearing | #58

Right this currently wearing post is pretty old because I was supposed to post it ages ago but completely forgot. Sorry guys!

This is what my nails looked like. A beautiful purple shade. I followed this from a Instagram account and I turned out a bit rubbish in a way. But I have to say I do quite like it and I will be following a few more tutorials on there.
So I used some striping tape to make the pattern on my nail art. I used Sally Hansen Good To Grape as the main nail polish on my other nails. I used LA Colours French White as the base for my accent nail. The other nail polishes that I used on my accent nail were Claire's Fairy Dust, Sally Hansen Pink Grape Fruit, Miss Sporty 450 and Circle Top polish.

Nail Polish Wednesday | #79 & #80

So I have decided that I will be doing two as I have too many nail polishes to even be included in this. I want to end this section so that is why I have done two posts.
 
OPI - She's Lily Something
This polish is from the Modern Family collection. I am such a big fan of Modern Family it is one of my favourite programmes. Now I am a sucker for pink nail polishes but this has stars in. STARS IN. Yes I am excited and I haven't even worn it and I have had it for a year almost. But I need to come up with a look that would look good.

Technic - Carnival
This is a glitter from a brand that is available in the UK but it is a only sold in a few places which annoys me. But anyway this is a dupe for a OPI polish and I absolutely love it, just small dots of glitter. I love technic and I can't wait for another time to wear this.
