Jazzy nails


Models own - Upotia £5
Models own - HeadKandi Ibiza Mix (NEW) £5


I love both of these polishes seperately... but together i ADORE them!!!
Upotia is a really really light creamy lilac which looks lovely on its own.
Ibiza Mix is the brand new glitter polish just launched as part of the head kandi range. Its a clear polish with bits of gold, green, blue, bronze and purple glitter discs in. I think this would look fab over most colours.




I love them... This is with 2 coats of the Ibiza mix glitter - i think one coat would look nice aswell though and more subtle.
Customers at work keep commented on them and loads have said there next stop was boots to buy Ibiza mix!!! :)

Sale nails

I recently said i had bought some nail varnish in the ASOS sale, it arrived today so i couldn't wait to test it out...

1) O.P.I - Color to dine for
I really like this shade... when on its a deep, dark red with a gold shimmer
I gave my nails 2 coats but to be honest 1 coat was thick and covered well - the second coat just make them a bit more glossy
I'm very pleased with this one, especially with the reduced price tag... £7.50 instead of the normal £11

2) Models Own - Mixed up
In the bottle, i LOVED this shade, but when i first applied it i wasn't too impressed at all. The colour was streaky and really thin. It took me about 4 coats to get it how i wanted it - but then i loved it :)
It does take numerous coats but when they are complete its thick and super sparkly!!! Not too dissimilar to a Topshop one i bought a while ago 'Gypsy Nights' i believe although the models own one seems thicker and glossier!!
I paid £3.50 but it is normally £5

All in all really happy with these two purchases!!!
 Love a bargain x x x

Pink Fizz



Painted my nails with Models Own 'Pink Fizz' today
Had this polish for a while - but not used it since before Christmas.
I love the subtle colour and the coverage is fab!!! I only did one layer and it covered really well.
Have been really into dark colours lately but i thought what better to cheer up this drab Feb!!


(polish is £5 but i got it in the River Island sale for £2 - Bargain)
