Nail Polish Wednesday | #100

I can't believe this is my 100th one. It feels crazy that I have so many more to post ha-ha. I hope you all had a lovely Christmas and an amazing new year. I have to say I hope 2016 will bring you happiness and joy.
Bright Pink Heart
I have had this in collection for so long yet I haven't worn it. Why am I not surprised that I haven't worn it yet. This is a bright pink with a light pink shimmer running through it. This is such a pretty colour though. The only problem this is that the brush is so thin and it isn't so great.

 I have got a Christmas nail post for you. I am finally getting around to posting them. So here we go lets have a look at what it is.
 
I am wearing True Brit London - Park Lane, this is a lovely bottle I have to say. But I am not sure on the nail polish myself, it was super streaky and you have to have so much of the product on the brush. But it was a nice polish once I had the two coats on. Maybe I just had a bad product I am not really sure. I used a Christmas tree for my accent nail, I love it. I used BeautyUK Café Culture as the base which is a light creamy nude, which has shimmer running through it and I put two coats of it on. I probably could of got away with one but two is better. Then I designed the Christmas tree using TrueBrit London Park Lane and I used Models Own Dancing Queen over the top which is a green glitter, personally one of my favourite glitters.

This is one of my favourite BarryM nail polishes in my entire collection. I just love this lilac nail polish. I have to say this is one of favourite out of my whole collection and yes I have so many.

Wishlist #107

So its wishlist time again and I cant believe how close Christmas is. I hope you get some lovely nail products for Christmas.

Polishes Mentioned:
1. Models Own - Saradonyx - £5.00
2. Technic - Koh Phangan - £0.99
3. Technic - Lagoon - £0.99
4. Essie - Naughty Nautical - £7.99
5. BarryM - Rockstar - £3.99
6. BarryM - Catwalk Queen - £3.99

Why I Want These Polishes?
1. Models Own - Sardonyx - I already own this nail polish, this is a beautiful red. This is defiantly perfect for Christmas time. It has got glitter running through the nail polish. If you haven't had a look at this polish I would sure look at some swatches.

2. Technic - Koh Phangan - I own this nail polish already. This is such a lovely bright blue nail polish. I feel that I haven't found my perfect navy nail polish just yet. But I am yet too give this a go yet.


3. Technic - Lagoon - Another blue nail polish. I feel like I am a sucker for blue nail polishes. This has quite a metallic feelin running through it in the bottle. Oh yeah I also have this one as well ha-ha. I have bought way too many nail polishes.

4. Essie - Naughty Nautical - I am always drawn to green nail polishes they are just one of my favourite colour. I feel that they always suit me, in whatever shade that they have. I know Essie can come across as hit and miss sometimes but the ones I have are just fine.

5. BarryM - Rockstar - This is from the glitterati collection. I have to say I am the biggest sucker for BarryM nail polishes. So when I was looking through my wishlist I had realised that I hadn't even wrote about most of them on my list. So I am really disappointed that I hadn't even put them down.

6. BarryM - Catwalk Queen - I have another barrym nail polish. I have also got this one. This is a beautiful green nail polish that you can get opaque in probably about two coats. I really think this nail polish is so pretty and I cannot wait to find the reason to wear this nail polish.

Review | Superdrug Nail Whitening Tablets

So I bought these in superdrug ages ago. At the time I saw them previous to when I bought them they were only 10p!! I mean 10p but when I eventually bought them they were sold at 1p. A PENNY. You cant even get sweets anymore for a penny I mean what a bargain.

So this is what they looked like before I used the whitening tablets. They do look a very funny colour and it looks gross. I hate when you have stained nails because they look like you have smoked 40 cigarettes a day and I don't even smoke.


This is what the nail whitening tablets look like. You get 6 in the pack and it has a pack of two together. You have to take the plastic coating around it, how did I not realise that it had coating around it. So there's me being stupid and placing it into water and wandering why it doesn't dissolve. You can use two but I decided to use one because I just wanted to test it out really.

This is the picture I took off it dissolving. It wasn't completely dissolved in this picture as I wasn't able to take one due to my hands being in the water. It goes completely milky white. It might have been a different if I added two tablets.

This is what they look like afterwards. It thought they looked quite good. You cant really tell there's much difference but I certainly can. I think I will use them more often and I mean if they don't work I only paid 1p for them so I don't really care.

Nail Polish Wednesday | #98

Its nail polish Wednesday time again, I cant believe there is only 9 days until Christmas. I am super excited.

Rimmel - Delight
I am pretty sure this was one of my first nail polishes. I believe that my nan actually gave me this because her friends were getting rid of stuff, I may be wrong but I am not sure. So I feel this nail polish is quite nostalgic to me and I can't get rid of it. I haven't used this though but you can tell its pretty old by where the line is in the nail polish. But I would like to finally get round to using this nail polish one day.

This is the first Christmas nail art of the year. This is candy canes and I have kept up this quite a lot. Tell me what you think of this because it is one of my favourites of the year.

I decided I would do candy canes as I just thought that this would be different from my Christmas designs. I am wearing Ciate - Strawberry Milkshake as the base, this had two or three coats on some nails as it went on really patchy. I really like this nail polish even if it was very patchy. Then I used LA Colours - French white for the base of my candy canes, this is my go to white nail polish. I'd love to try more white polish as I would love a one coater. Then the red and green polishes I used for the candy canes were Rimmel - Double Decker Red, this would be a fantastic red for Christmas, the green nail polish is Nails Inc - Queen Victoria Street, I can't wait to use this as a full nail look. Then I put Miss Sporty Sparkle Touch Glitter on three of my fingers, this is one of my go to glitters, I need to have a look at more glitters as I feel I don't have enough.

Wishlist #106

It's wishlist time again. Lets see what nail polish I have got this week.
                                   
Polishes Mentioned:
1. Essie - Strut Your Stuff - £7.99
2. Essie - Play Date - £7.99
3. Essence - Purple Sugar - £2.50
4. Essence - Circus Confetti - £2.50
5. Technic - Monochrome - £0.99

Why Do I Want These Polishes?
1. Essie - Strut Your Stuff -
This is such a beautiful bright blue. I absolutely love it as I am a big fan of blue nail polish. I really like the name of this as well because I always feel that blue nail polishes suit every single skin tone and not many nail polishes do that actually.

2. Essie - Play Date - This nail polish is such a beautiful colour. It isn't really like a purple nail polish either it is a bit strange colour. I just cant really work out the shade of it, but it is so pretty. This would look really well on a suntan because it is so perfect.

3. Essence - Purple Sugar - I have this nail polish. This is a beautiful lilac purple shade. It is very pretty and I am yet to wear it yet of course. I never seem to wear any nail polish haha.

4. Essence - Circus Confetti - This is such a beautiful glitter and I already have this one as well haha. It is a dupe for a OPI rainbow connection I believe. I can't wait to wear this one because I already have this one yet. This is so lovely though.

5. Technic - Monochrome - This is a black and white glitter, this has hex's in a clear base. This is perfect for a black and white look. I already have this as well. This is amazing though I am not sure what I would do with it other than that though. I wish I could describe nail polishes better.

This is quite late post because I have been busy really haha.
 
I am wearing KIKO 497 in Pearly Indian Violet, this is such a beautiful polish. I didn't get the colour in the bottle though which is really annoying. I had one coat and I really didn't like it but after the second coat it looked a little bit better. It looks quite an inky shade really. But it just looks so pretty and I do love kiko nail polishes after my first go with using it. They are super shiny as well and this is without a top coat.

Nail Polish Wednesday | #97

I hope everyone is okay and are getting into the festive mood.

Models Own - Catherine Wheel
This is such a beautiful polish, I wish I had a better picture for this because it doesn't even show anything. But this isn't a glitter it is actually a shredded glitter in gold and red shades. This is full of different shimmers though, I may need to do some macro shots though as I think that would be quite cool as you can see that the shimmer shines through many different shades in green, blue and even yellow.

Wishlist #105

So this is wishlist time yet again, this is all from the same one brand. But I couldn't find two nail polish pictures on Google anywhere.
                                      

Polishes Mentioned:
1. Claire's - Fairy Wings - £3.50
2. Claire's - Wicked - £3.50
3. Claire's - Pinball - £3.50
4. Claire's - Ditsy - £3.50

Why I Want These Polishes?
1. Claire's - Fairy Wings -
This is such a beautiful lilac nail polish. I already own this. It is such a pretty nail polish and I have to say I think I bought this just for the name. Just because I went into Claire's one day and I was just about to buy it and put it straight down, but I ended up regretting that decision so I went back and got it.
 
2. Claire's - Wicked - I could not find a picture for this nail polish anywhere wow. It is like a loose splash nail polish, this is a very strange polish. Its like an iridescent glitter nail polish, this is such a beautiful nail polish. It would look perfect great over a purple polish.

3. Claire's - Pinball - This is such a pretty green nail polish. this is a light green but it claims it is actually a neon fluorescent green. But I saw a few reviews that it actually isn't a green neon. So I am not sure about this polish, it really doesn't look like a neon nail polish in the bottle on the picture either.

4. Claire's - Ditsy - Another polish I couldn't find a picture for which is a little bit odd. But this is a packed polish full of different shapes like hex's which are full of different colours. There are also circles and some small glitter flecks as well. I need to use it so I can show you all what it looks like.

So I have got another nail polish that I have been wearing. This is one of my favourite nail varnishes in my whole collection, that is saying something. I have only worn it once that is definitely saying something.

I am wearing China Glaze Cabin Fever and this is from The Great Outdoors collection. This is such a lovely nail polish and I mean this is one of my favourite nail polishes ever in my whole entire collection. This is a duo chrome polish and actually my first one. It turned from pink to brown in the natural light. I didn't even want to take it off. China Glaze is a brand that I need to explore more of because I am in love with the ones I have. As it was autumn I was inspired by doing some leaves, I used China Glaze White On White which is a perfect white two coats but a little streaky. I used BarryM Cardamom and Sally Hansen Slick Slate, Tippy Taupe with TrueBritLondon in Black Cab. So I love this nail look and I hope you did too. I am finally catching up with these posts I only have 1 that I have just taken off my nails so see you soon!

Nail Polish Wednesday | #96

Its another nail polish Wednesday, lets see what nail polish we have got in here.

BarryM - Dusky Mauve
This is one of my favourite BarryM nail polishes that I actually own. It is just so pretty and it has a silver shimmer running through it. I also hear that this is a dupe for a very high end brand, it would be really helpful if I could actually remember what it was from. But this is such a gorgeous polish. BarryM is one of my favourite brands that whatever they bring out I will always seem to buy them because they are just so pretty.
