nail polishes

*NEWS FLASH* Tolly is actually carrying on with a post series! Amazing! Yup! I’m back with my second post in this series (you can read the first one here), and this time it is a nail polish look which I have been all over this week! I was looking through the nail polish drawer, and pulled out two colours which look so good together! Here they are…

These colours are so beautiful! I really like what they look like together. It’s surprising that they do, because I usually HATE glittery polishes. This Bourjois One Seconde polish is so nice! The brush makes for an easy and neat application, which means even my right hand (I’m a righty!) looked good, which was pretty cool! The brush is a fan effect brush, which means it spreads out to the width of your nail. It says that is a Gel finish, but I wouldn’t say it is, it is quite tough though, and when it chips it doesn’t chip flakey. The Hello Kitty polish has an ordinary brush, which is okay because it’s just a top coat, so it shouldn’t show up too much if you go wrong. This polish isn’t really ‘glittery’ like ‘sequin-y’ (?!) but, it’s almost foil like? It shows up like little tiny pieces of foil on the nail, which creates a soft sparkly look. I think this is great if you want a nice girly, but fresh look, but also want to look quite ‘smart’. As you can see both polishes together, actually makes the blue slightly lighter, as the Hello Kitty polish has a slightly creamy coloured polish in it, but it is still very see through. I really think this look will be great for spring, but could also work in the snowy months of winter!

Halo! I thought I would start a new series (Yup, another one, which will probably never be finished!), and this one is going to be about Nail Polishes and the ones which look like the most beautiful ever creations on this earth. The first lot of polishes I am going to start with on ‘The Nail Polish Rack’, are the Mavala ones. I have used Mavala mainly for Nail Care, but have never used their polishes, so I took a look, and found some of the most delicious looking colours, ever. You’re going to love this…

The Pastel Shades: Osaka £3.61, Blue Mint £3.61, The Perfect Shades: Cyclades Blue £3.61, Honolulu £3.61, Blue Curacao £3.61 & The Sparkle: Sparkling Blue £3.61 (Mavala at Beauty Bay).

Aren’t they all gorgeous?! And look at the price! I am so tempted to buy one, but I must not! Let’s start with ‘The Pastel Shades‘. I am not much of a nude/light colour nail person, but just recently I have had the craving for them! I really like this Osaka shade, I haven’t got the Essie colour which is similar to this because it is like 2 times the price, so I may have to invest in this. As I said I have had a recent craving for light colours, like Blues & Mint Greens, I think this is probably because I know Spring is coming! (We’ve had 3 clear blue skies, 3 days running!) This Blue Mint shade is almost like Duck Egg, and I think it would look really nice with someone who has a tan, as it would compliment their skin tone. I received my £6 ASOS Midi Skirt  – post coming soon – in a similar shade to this today, so I think this would match perfectly!
Next are ‘The Perfect Shades’, by perfect I mean, literally perfect. If you look up at the sky, it is usually a perfect blue, and this first colour is exactly that. I think if you used a nice Matte Top Coat, it would look so nice, and you could wear really nice rings with it! Don’t get me started! This Honolulu shade is also perfect, and is just that sort of Pink, that anyone could wear! I also really like the name too! Again, Blue Curacao, is such a lovely shade, that I am sure anyone could wear, I love colours which are a mix between Blue & Green 🙂
The final colour is ‘The Sparkle’. This shade – Sparkling Blue – is so pretty! Unfortunately this is a top coat, but in some ways that is even better, because you could create a really nice Ombre effect with this. Just a gentle touch to glam up any nail colour!

I hope you liked the beginning of this series, and that I didn’t bore you too much! Make sure to remind me to do the 2nd post, because I am certain to forget! Also, watch out for some more Nail Art & Reviews because I have ordered a nice Practice Nail Ring off of eBay which should make the posts look a bit more crisp!
