Wishlist #137

It is wishlist time, I completely forgot to post last week as I was away for the weekend. I just hope you enjoy this.
                                         

Polishes Mentioned:
1. NYC - Prince Street - £1.99
2. Essie - I'm Addicted - £7.99
3. Models Own - Brunette Red - £5.00
4. OPI - Skating On Thin Ice Land - £11.99
5. OPI - Put It In Neutral - £11.99
 
Why Do I Want These Polishes?
1. NYC - Prince Street - This is such a beautiful purple nail polish. I'm not sure if NYC even still do nail polish because there is hardly any on the superdrug website which is kind of strange. But what a deep metallic purple it is.

2. Essie - I'm Addicted - This is such a beautiful blue nail polish, I really love it. I know Essie is so hit and miss as a brand. I absolutely need this. I haven't seen much about this nail polish before so I might have a look at a few reviews.

3. Models Own - Brunette Red - This is a deep redy brown shade. It is super pretty as well. I know this would be absolutely perfect for the autumn months, when the leaves start coming down. That would be super cool.
 
4. OPI - Skating On Thin Ice Land - This is a cool polish, not as bright as the NYC purple though. This is more of a deeper polish for autumn or winter. I really like this and I haven't got many colours in my OPI collection, its pretty dull as well. I really do like this and I just need to get it.
 
5. OPI - Put It In Neutral - This is a classic nude nail polish. I feel this would be absolutely perfect for an interview as it is that pretty shade.

Haul | Base Coats & Colours

I haven't done a haul in a long time. I do have loads to post though so bare with me, this is my most recent one actually.
This isn't from one day I promise. I could happily buy all of this in one day ha-ha. I have AVON Nail Prime Base Coat, I didn't even need a base coat but its great to get back up. Next I have a Makeup Gallery which is Poundland's brand cuticle oil. The next 4 nail polishes are from KIKO. I got all these four polishes for just £1!. Talk about a bargain. I have 670 Orange, this is a mystery polish because it has no name. The next beautiful polish is KIKO Turquoise micro glitter, which just reminds me of something from frozen or mermaids. The next polish is KIKO Metallic pink micro glitter, I really love this one. The next polish is more likely to be my favourite I love this, its KIKO Chartreuse, it is such an ugly but pretty colour. The next lines of polishes are Models Own Bubblegum, BarryM Surfboard which I need to wear so quickly because I absolutely love this colour. I have Makeup Gallery Rainbow Sparkle, which is such a beautiful multi-coloured glitter. I have this gorgeous Collection Touch Of Glamour this is a gorgeous rose gold pink. The last polish is from Nails Inc Mint Bliss, this was a free polish by getting a Wilkinson sword razor.

This is another one for currently wearing, the theme for this is angel. I have to admit this is the worst one I have done.

For some reason I am so ashamed of this one. I feel this is pretty bad, no wonder it hardly got any likes on instagram. Oh nail art you are tough. I used Natural Collection - Stardust. This is my first holographic nail polish. I absolutely love this and I need to use it again. Obviously if I wasn't taking part in the untried year. This is so silky smooth, it makes me want so many more nail polishes like this.

Wishlist #136

It is super hot in the UK today which is a shock. It isn't usually warm in the summer, I'm not a fan of the hot weather either because I never know what to wear and just don't enjoy the heat. Also I don't know the prices of any of these polishes so they will not be included.

Polishes Mentioned:
1. OPI - So Elegant
2. OPI - Ice Bergers & Fries
3. OPI - Suzi Has A Swede Tooth
4. OPI - Cant Afjord Not To
5. OPI - Do You Have This Colour In Stockholm?

Why Do I Want These Polishes?
1. OPI - So Elegant - This is such an odd glitter. I think this is in a clear base, with many glitters. There has black speckled pieces in it, then there is large hexagon pieces of silver glitter. I really like this and I think it would be super unique in my collection.

2. OPI - Ice Bergers & Fries - This may be my favourite name for a nail polish I have ever seen. I just love it, also I am not really sure the way it is spelt. But I have to admit that this is a really good looking brown. I am a huge fan of this colour especially when it comes to Autumn. I know it is pretty boring.

3. OPI - Suzi Has A Swede Tooth - Oh what a beautiful pink nail polish this is. It is super bright pink. I just really like it, it is so pretty. I am such a fan of pink nail polishes. Even though I never get drawn to pinks all the time.

4. OPI - Can't Afjord Not To  - This is such a beautiful coral shade. I think it leads more to a orangey pink. But I really do like it, I may need to go and have a look for it in a shop. I also didn't think this was the same name, I thought it was cant afjord it. So I got it completely wrong, but oh boy what a colour.

5. OPI - Do You Have This Colour In Stockholm? - I really love this colour. I think this would be great for the colder months. I gravitate towards the darker shades when it gets a little colder, I don't know why. I think this would look great with a little bit of nail art.

This is Glam Nail Challenge day 15. This seems like it has been years ago since I painted this.
 
The theme for this was Poppies. I used Nails Inc Queen Victoria Street. I got this in October's nailbox. This is a beautiful green. I know it does look great, but be warned it is a stainer. What it is it with these stupid green nail polishes that stain. I'm pretty sure I did this when I was super angry because my football team lost. I am very passionate when it comes to football. I'm not sure if the poppies looked great, but on some nails they look good. I followed a few nail looks for the poppies. I used two coats and it was fully opaque. It looked great and Nails Inc are a great nail polish brand.

Wishlist #135

It is once again wishlist time. This is only a short one, hope you are all having a lovely weekend. It is pretty hot where I am today. Its 9pm and its still pretty warm, but I don't want to jinx it.
                                           

Polishes Mentioned:
1. MUA - Ultramarine - £1.00
2. OPI - Just Beclaus - £8.95?
3. OPI - What's Your Point Seitta? - ?
4. OPI - I'll Tinsel You In - ?
 
Why Do I Want These Polishes?
1. MUA - Ultramarine - This is a beautiful polish. It is a strange colour, not really sure how I could describe it. It is like an indigo or a blurple. It is a cool colour, worried it may be a little bit of a stainer though.

2. OPI - Just Beclaus - This is from the Gwen Stefani Christmas collection. I am not sure on this polish because the name says to me it should be about santa so it should be red. But its a berry shade. Why do these things bother me. But anyway other than the silliness of a name, its a pretty colour. I get this would be perfect for Christmas.
 
3. OPI - What's Your Point Settia? - Not sure if I have spelt the time entirely right on this. But why did I even put this down, I hate red nail polish. I only like it at Christmas and that is only for nail art. I just couldn't deal with red nails because I just don't feel it suits me that much.
 
4. OPI - I'll Tinsel You In - This is a black and white tinsel polish. So basically this is bar glitters. I do like barred glitter. I like the way it looks on your nails and it would just look really pretty on a nude nail.

This is another day from my glam nails challenge. The challenge for this was stripes. I loved this one and I think this was one of my favourite designs.

I used Orly Colour Blast in Fresh Green. I actually only got this a few weeks before I decided I would wear it. That absolutely never happens, so that was quickly off my untried. All I know is that its a beautiful fresh green, the name says it all really. I know I need more colour blasts as they are pretty good. As the prompt was stripes, I just used a quite nail polish and it is a little messy. I am not the best when it comes to stripes. But the flowers are so cute I thought, I decided I would just add something to make it look a bit better as it was pretty bare without it. I am very impressed with this nail look, so I will be looking for more orly's.

Wishlist #134

It is wishlist time once again, lets see what nail polish I have got this week for you.

                                       

Polishes Mentioned:
1. Butter London - Foundation - £15.00
2. ELF - Fairy Dust - £3.99
3. Technic - Miss Millie - 99p
4. Technic - Isla Bonita -  99p
5. MUA - Steel Blue - £1.00
 
Why Do I Want These Polishes?
1. Butter London - Foundation - This is like a base coat, just its called a foundation which I think is super cool. I know this is super expensive so I probably wont be spending that much for a base coat when I can get a cheap one.

2. ELF - Fairy Dust - I have this already. I have actually worn this once, its very pretty. It has orange holographic running through it. It is super pretty and quite unusual for a silver or a light glitter.

3. Technic - Miss Millie - This would be so pretty in a jelly sandwich I would absolutely love that. Its a very thick glitter full with pink, purple and blue glitters. I absolutely love this. This even as an accent nail would look so perfect, if it was able to get fully opaque.
 
4. Technic - Isla Bonita - I think this is a micro glitter, so this would be perfect all over the nail. I reckon this would be perfect over a nude nail polish. I really would like that. I have just so many ideas for a nail polish that I haven't even bought ha-ha.

5. MUA - Steel Blue - This is such a steel blue as the name of this says ha-ha. I love blue nail polish. I am thinking of doing a colour post with so many different brands for that colour. For only a pound this is a complete and utter bargain.

It is another day of Glam Nail Challenge. I really loved this challenge and I cannot wait to be able to join in many more challenges.
                
The challenge was 80's. I have to admit I struggled with this challenge and I just wasn't sure what to put on my nails. But I decided on the good old classic leopard print. I used Seche - Redenveous which is a bright pink. I got this in one of my nailboxes. I mean who doesn't love a bright pink and how many more can you get. I used some random coloured nail polishes, I have a box full of old polishes that I don't really like or just wouldn't be able to have a full nail look for. I feel it wasn't my best nails and maybe I shouldn't have used so many colours but for my first attempt at leopard print I am very impressed ha-ha.
