Models Own Magpie

Hello lovelies! Hope you’re well. I have some great news – I’m about to start a new job tomorrow morning! A real Monday to Friday, 37.5hr week… I was beginning to think they didn’t exist! It’s going to be such an amazing change from my previous work, which was anything up to 17hrs a day – I even did a few 20hr days when management meetings overran… a LOT! My longest week there clocked up just over 90hrs which pretty much killed me lol.

Anyway, onto the polish. I was lucky enough to win all five of the Models Own Speckled Eggs Collection in an Instagram giveaway they did last week, which was soooo exciting! I can’t afford to buy nail varnish at the moment but I was dying to try these, so it really was a lovely surprise. I decided to try my favourite first: Magpie. I’m a bit of a bird lover so these instantly had me hooked – a name will really sell me on a product! Illamasqua released a set of 5 speckled polishes last Spring under the I’mperfection Collection, which I thought were very muted, which I personally don’t like… the Models Own versions are much more vibrant and pastelly which is perfect in my eyes!
