Barry M Super Nova – Magnetic Multi Sparkle

Hello! You may remember in late 2011 and 2012 magnetic polishes really came into trend and a lot of brands leapt on the magnetic train. To be honest at the time I wasn’t crazy for magnetics and found them a bit of a faff, but I did always love the second space-themed magnetic collection released by Barry M. I was looking back through my old posts and realised I never posted the fifth of the collection: Super Nova (also known as Magnetic Multi Sparkle as labelled). I tried it on today and I have to say I am very tempted to pull out all my old magnetics again as I really enjoyed it this time round!

If you want a peek at my older posts on the magnetics then click here, to see my messy polishing and uneven nail lengths haha!!

Flash Nails Midnight Feast

Hey everyone!! You may remember from a few days ago I showed you Flash Nails Jagged which was a funky mixture of shards, and today I have the second mini polish I won from the giveaway! I’ve found Flash Nails to be so lovely and unique so far so I’m excited to buy more 🙂

The one I have today is called Midnight Feast. I love it when names really conjure up images in my mind – this makes me think of sweetie wrappers and cakes and crisps and chocolate and all things colourful. Growing up midnight feasts were a BIG thing haha, I used to stay at my cousin’s house and we’d plan one every single night!! Never successful because despite what we thought, we were actually very very noisy haha!

Barry M Pearl Silk Effect

You know what I said yesterday about getting later and later? Well… whoops! Here I am at midnight because I’ve been having a very lazy Friday night and I wasn’t honestly sure what to post. Sorry! 😛 Anyway, here is another from the Barry M Silk collection. Over a month ago (can you believe how quickly that’s gone?!) I showed you Barry M Heather, and today I have Pearl to show you. It’s very… well… pearly!

Indiglow – Rainbow Series

Hey everybody 🙂 eek I’m getting so late with blogposts this week. I’m having to be much more organised since I started work because I don’t get any daylight to take photos in… which means a massive swatchfest at the weekend and writing up and editing during the week… somehow the more organised I am the more the chaos-loving side of me comes to light!! 😐

It’s Rainbow Series day again, where Charlie (of Pocket Money Polishes) and I do a colour-themed post :) This week we are doing blurples and indigos (blurple = blue + purple) – I have to confess I’m not the biggest fan of blurples as I feel like they can tend to be a little boring, but some are standouts, and indigos I luuuuurve.

Orly Miss Conduct

Hello everyone!! Late post for me tonight, I’ve been spending the evening with Andy’s grandparents. Since moving we’ve not had anyone to ‘go and see’ so to speak, and they’re down for the week in a holiday apartment so it’s really lovely to spend time with them. Hope you’re all having a good week!

I bought this polish a long while ago in TK Maxx, it was being sold as part of a ‘holiday’ set as it’s from the Naughty or Nice Holiday 2012 collection. It came with one of those eye mask giant pad things which I didn’t care much for, and the two other polishes it came with were called Devil May Care and Unlawful, which I’m not so keen on either… if I’m totally honest, I totally bought the set just for Miss Conduct 😀
