Blogmas | #07 | Season Picks | Christmas Picks

Are we surprised that  I am pretty behind on blogmas? nope absolutely not.

So here are these Christmas themed polishes as well as two colours that are great colours perfect for Christmas time.

I have a set from BarryM Icicle & Gingerbread. Gingerbread is a gorgeous brown with silver running through it. Absolutely perfect for this time of year. Then I have Icicle, this is a silver bar glitter. This is so pretty. I know people don't like bar glitters, but I quite like them. I have BarryM Jingle Bells, this glitter has stars running through it. I can't believe this hasn't been worn yet. I have Polish Me Royalty Kandy Kane Lane, this is so much fun. I have never seen a more Christmas themed polish in a bottle. I believe this also smells of candycanes. Unfortunately polish me royalty isn't a brand anymore. Polish Me Royalty White Kissmass, this is a snowflake polish. I love the look of this, the bottle is cute. The last Polish Me Royalty Bluddy Sprouts! I am pretty sure this is one polish I have worn, wow it is gorgeous.

I have Nine Zero Lacquer Cat In The Christmas Tree. This is very true, my cat always got in the Christmas tree and I love green polish. So basically this is a match made in heaven. I have China Glaze Merry Whatever. This is from last years muppets collection. I really love the look of this, I need to plan to wear this next year.

The next two polishes are ones that I have just picked because you all need Christmas red. I don't like red polishes at all. I have Cuccio Chakra, I feel this is a dupe for China Glaze Ruby Pumps. Next I have Nailberry Pop My Berry. This is so pretty, I like the bottle but that's all I have to say. I am not sure on reds at all.
I have Ard As Nails chrismas collection.

Blogmas | #06 | Currently Wearing | #328

Here we have is another currently wearing, its embarrassing how behind I am when it comes to these posts. I really need to get my bum in gear when it comes to blogging for 2020.
 
I am wearing Avon Orange Crush, I could have sworn I had already worn this. But I hadn't, I should probably start to put an untried pile together (I wont because I would be ashamed with how many I have). I was inspired by a Halloween themed background which I found on pintrest. I wasn't too happy with how messy some of the ghosts looked, but I just thought nobody knows what ghosts really look like. So they maybe just a little messy. This orange took 2/3 coats, I rarely wear orange polishes. But I really am happy with this one.

Blogmas | #05 | Currently Wearing | #327

Here is another Currently Wearing, I am trying my hardest to get these posted. I do have so many to post, I know for a fact that you will see 2019 manis in 2020. But that's what happens.
 
Here is BarryM Fuschia Kiss. This is a gorgeous pink. I cannot believe it had taken me this long to wear because wow that's all I can say. I have to say I really hope BarryM bring out more molten metals because they are one of my favourite collections from BarryM. I am sure you might see this in my 2019 favourites which I am still yet to sort out.

Blogmas | #04 | Currently Wearing | #326

Here is another currently wearing, this is a Mean Girls one. I absolutely love this film, one of my favourite films. I have always wanted to do these nails on October 3rd every year. Without doubt I have forgotten, but this year I finally remembered to do them.
 
Here is Color Club Pink. This doesn't have a name which I find very annoying. This had a jelly consistency. This polish has such a sweet like smell too, it is really yummy, I was such a fan of this smell. I absolutely love these nails, I was just so happy with how they turned out. I am often doubting myself when it comes to nail art. But I love this nail art so much. I hope you all like it too!

Blogmas | #03 | Topic Tuesday #29 & #30

I am starting to do double Topic Tuesday posts because I am really aiming to get them completed. So there may be many multiple posts of Topic Tuesday guys.

How do you choose which polish to wear next?

I usually just pick any polish. But I do sometimes have a few colours in mind. I do have loads of untrieds so I know that it would usually be that. But unless I have a particular polish in mind I just randomly pick one out.

Favourite nail polish formulas from most to least favourite
 

Well I am an idiot because I actually did this the wrong way round haha.
I have Mattes, textured - fall glitter, metallic, glitter, pearlescent and crème
As you can see I have missed out a few formulas. Crelly's I have never used one before and holographic I forgot to put it on here.
I hate matte nail polish, I don't know if it was this polish that just made me really dislike it. Textured and fall coverage glitters are so pretty but I absolutely hate taking them off. Metallic polishes are really good but I feel that they show your imperfections in your nails. I love glitter toppers, don't often wear them which is annoying. Then I have a pearlescent, I am guessing this is what its called. I am terrible when it comes to naming formulas. I lastly have a crème polish, I am super happy with them.

Blogmas | #02 | Currently Wearing | #325 GIFTED

Here is another Currently Wearing. This is actually a GIFTED post. Beauty Big Bang asked me to review some items and here is the stamping plate and stamper.
 
I am the absolute worst at stamping. For some reason I really struggled with this one. But it was the cutest cat plate. The stamper I didn't get on with too well. I really liked the nail art in the end.

 
This is Rimmel Sage The Rage. I think the polish is super pretty and it had been in my untried pile for a very long time. The cat is just the cutest. I will try and use this stamping plate again because it was really cute. I am not entirely sure if the stamper is for me.

Blogmas | #01 | Christmas Nail Gift Guide

Happy Blogmas everyone!
This will be 25(still undecided) on how many days I am going to be blogging for.

Here is my Christmas nail gift guide. I absolutely love getting nail things for Christmas because it is so much fun. So her is my gift guide, I have got a lot of links here. This is not a sponsored post. I have chosen lots of great gift ideas.
 
I have Nails Inc Duo, these are currently on sale on Nail Polish Direct due to it being Black Friday. Here you can get them here.  These duo sets are perfect for someone who loves nail polish. There are so many that they have bought out. There are so many different colours and varieties.

Other polishes I think are perfect to pick up are UK indies. I love them. I feel that these indie brands deserve so much more love. I have a few brands that you should try and it would be a great present for somebody.
Ard As Nails
Prism Polish
Dystopia

I have stamping plates for you next. I am not the biggest stamper. But I am aiming to get a lot better at it. I have a few websites that have a lot of products on rather than just stamping plates.

Mo You London is a great website if you are starting out in stamping. They always have offers on too, there are many bundle packs on the website. Mo You are forever bringing out brand new plates with amazing designs on.

I have two websites that is perfect for a nail polish lover and nail art too. They also have hard to find brands which aren't usually that available in the UK. Normally there aren't available, but they stock lots of great brands.

I have
Nail Artisan - this is where the plates are from. I have UberChic, Bundle Monster and Sugar Bubbles. They have so many stamping plates available. Also they have lots of different things, so many nail polishes and they have their own brand of polishes

Nail Art UK is a great website for nail art lovers too, this would be great for anybody.

I have a few other bits now. I have the Nail Art Sketch Book which is just so amazing. I can't wait to use this. I will be filming a YouTube video on this in January as I am doing a huge nail art challenge. So I would like to show you then.

Then the last item I have is a brush set - I actually own this one.
