Indie

Hey there everyone! I have another exciting collection to show you from Stellar Nail Polish, a UK Indie Nail Polish brand created by my lovely friend Ruth. If you missed the Stellar Christmas Collection, you can see it here. This time, I’m reviewing the New Year collection, created specially for New Year’s celebrations. As you’d expect, these nail polishes are fun and bright and perfect for a party!

All of the nail polishes are named after Elvis Presley songs. I have to confess – I’ve never really listened to Elvis, but I always love a good namesake! 🙂

Hello everyone! I have been sent another lot of the lovely Stellar Nail Polishes by my amazing friend Ruth, to review. You may have seen them on my blog before, and this time, I have the new Christmas collection to review! I think these are probably my absolute favourites so far – they are so Christmassy and attractive!

Hey there! Today I have a very pretty nail polish to show you. It’s another Picture Polish shade (if you follow me on Instagram, you will know how much I adore Picture Polish!), which I got back in the late summer when they launched 8 or so new shades. This one was part of a collection of four which were ‘re-releases’ (or very similar) of shades originally sold under Ozotic, which, from what I gather, was a sister brand of Picture Polish.

So ‘Bette’ is meant to be a remake of Ozotic 617. They’re pretty much the same in my eyes, although if you want to see for yourself More Nail Polish did a great comparison here.

Since I’ve been posting a fair few mainstream nail polishes lately, I felt like it was time to show you all another indie from one of my favourite makers – Hare Polish :). I know this one isn’t exactly season-appropriate, but hey, rules were made to be broken ;). I believe the inspiration behind this nail polish is Lisa Frank, an artist who uses very bright, colourful media in her pieces.

As usual, Nikole (the lady behind Hare Polish) has created a small masterpiece – this nail polish is just stunning.

Hey there! So… I’ve kind of been gone again for a while… sorry about that! I’m not sure whether I’m back but we’ll take it as it comes. I’ll be honest about why I’ve been gone – I’ve been learning a lot about spirituality and consciousness and it makes me feel a bit disillusioned with products, material items and values etc which is, to say the least, at odds with the very premise of my blog. But I have still been enjoying wearing nail polish (as you will know if you follow me on Instagram) so I wanted to share one of my recent favourites with you all.

Cirque isn’t a brand I’ve taken much notice of until I saw their Heritage Collection, which is a nice summery line-up of holographic colours. If you didn’t know, Cirque nail polishes are lightly scented with lavender and clary sage. This scent is obvious at first but lessens with topcoat, and I can’t tend to smell it after the first couple of hours.
