Nude Rainbow

Im loving the mix of glitters and colours at the mo when it comes to nail art. I've also noticed alot of other bloggers only applying detail on one nail, so i thought i'd give the look ago myself. Of course the nude colour is Models Own's Nude Beige (my all time fav!) and the glitter on my ring finger is GOSH's Rainbow, another favourite for random details. Together it looks like so much nicer than the photo showed up, so i definitely recommend trying this, or recreating your own with any other type of glitter you have (the good thing about rainbow is that its actually a glitter coated in lots of clear polish, rather than being very glittery (think barry m 'red glitter'), so its easy peasy to get off!) Im also waiting for the day my nails decide to grow so i can do nail art on the tips, because (as you can see) the difference in lengths is crazy- and its only going to get worse when i go back to work. (damn having to open cans!) 

In The Nude

(Please excuse my gammy thumb nail!)


Models Own Nude Beige. Definitely a new favourite. 

Too good to be true?

In my last post i told you all about how i was going to Milton Keynes on Sunday, well while i was there i managed to pick up 3 more Models Own polishes. Quite often Boots run offers with Models own where you can pick them up on 3 for £10 (rather than paying £5 pet 14ml bottle) Seeing as how my obsession with the brand is growing by the day, i decided to pick up 3 that i didnt already own.

Nude Beige, Purple Mystique and 25 Carrat Gold. The gold is not one that i would generally buy as i cant see myself blinging up my nails with that colour, but for doing nail art, i think it will come in really handy. 

If you havn't already tried the polishes, they are very true to bottle colour and only take 1-2 coats. They, along with various other make up bits and pieces are sold in Boots and online.

The photo above are the ones that i currently have at home with me whilst being back for xmas break.  I didn't bring them all.

L-R: Grace Green, Nude Beige, Purple Ash, Purple Mistique, 25 Carrat Gold.

What are your favourite Models Own colours?

Do bloggers do hauls?

I popped into town today, primarily because i was super desperate for the barry m nail paint in mushroom and so i could pick up some bits before going back to uni. I didnt get too much, but i thought id share for you all to see :)

So just a quick overview. Scarf, nail varnish x3, sleek palette & ring.

  

for those of you that aren't aware, the sleek "circus" palette will stop being sold from today. (its limited edition) so throughout it being sold it was a "get it while you can" kind of thing. Anyway, im more about neutral colours, so added the sunset palette to my collection. I wanted the Circus one, but didnt think i would use it all that much. Im hoping the next one out is a wearable palette, as i wont be spending my money on the acid palette. I somehow also managed to talk my sister into getting the Storm palette. Not too sure how that happened, lol.

 

Double-fingered ring from Primark. Only £2, i've wanted one of these since i saw Lauren Conrad wear one. Ive got chubby fingers though, so getting one off the internet wasn't really an option :(. But i quite like its unusualness. 

  

I was super lucky to find the models own varnish. I was so close to ordering it off their website the other day, but resisted temptation, so when i was in boots today and found that they now sell models own varnish, i knew what one i had to get!

And of course i got Barry M in mushroom, and black. i have pale skin, so although it makes me look stupidly goth-like, its great for detailing, or if i decide to be daring. haha.

And here is what they look like on the nail. I didn't bother to paint a nail black because i didn't really see the point. It really is just a jet black.

Models Own - "Blue Moon"

Barry M - "Mushroom"

And lastly my scarf. One side if a creamy colour and the other the turquoise. Its still very creased so im just going to leave it for the time being so the creases can drop out of it. Super excited to wear this though! Again, bought from Primark for a mere £3!

Hope you have a great week guys & dolls. x
