Spring Into Summer..

After reading Sinead's post about her top summer nail varnishes i thought about the ones i've been using recently, that are taking me from spring into summer (or maybe with this british weather i should be saying autumn into winter..?!) anyway, here are my current 3 fav's.

Nails Inc - Warwick Avenue
Rimmel - Orange Bliss


Do you have any colours that tickle your fancy when the weather changes?

Turquoise




Spring is on its way!

I decided today that i wear browns/neutral colours on my nails too much.

Excuse the state of them :)
1 x base coat
2 x sleek Turquoise.

I havn't worn too many polishes by Sleek really. I have a few (mainly browns and neutrals) i thought id go for something different as it has been neglected. 2 coats covered my nails nicely, although the consistency was really runny.

Have any of you painted your nails summery colours recently? Im far too excited at the thought of summer, i'm fed up of the rain and cold.

All in a haze


Elf - Desert Haze.
(Rimmel matte top coat)

I can honestly say this has the most staying power. Ive had it on for about 3/4 days and barely any chips.
Quite surprising for a polish that cost a mere £1.

Have you tried these polishes? What did you think of their staying power?



*Im off to Centre Parcs for the weekend, blogging will commence as usual when im back!*

ELF Polishes

I'm a bit late on this train really, but the other week i placed an order with Elf, it eventually turned up and here are the 3 polishes i bought.




L-r: Mint Cream, Desert Haze, Lilac.

I havn't properly used them yet, but the quick swatches i have done, they seem to need a few coats, but they are buildable and do seem to turn out okay. I plan on doing some nail designs tonight, so hopefully pictures will come tomorrow! :) 

The ones i bought, were (i think) only £1, some are £1.50. All available from the Elf website. Do you own any Elf polishes? What do you think of them?
