Hey everyone! Here is the second installment of the Rainbow Series. It’s a collaboration between myself and Charlie of Pocket Money Polishes. Each week we each post a colour-themed blogpost on both our blogs, so make sure you check hers out too!

Today is ‘orange’, if you couldn’t guess from the title! Now, I do love orange, but on my nails I’m not such a big fan as it can tend to clash with my pink-toned skin… so I have to choose them wisely! This time it was relatively easy to pick out a top 5 favourites as the oranges are a little lacking in volume in my collection. I love darker, shimmery oranges which take the emphasis off the clashyness because they’re more pretty and reflective.

Hello! I have a really lovely new polish for you today. Unless you have been living under a rock (or don’t spend your life on Facebook like me…) you will have heard of the new Barry M Silk range. There are six colours in total, all designed to have a ‘silk-effect’ finish. I have to say, the look is actually pretty spot on – I’m impressed!

It’s been a little while since we’ve heard word from camp BM, so these are an exciting addition for Spring! All the six shades are pearly pastels, which I am ALL OVER, I’m really into pastels at the moment (I think it’s because I’m craving sun and happy springtime, less of the rain and flooding!)

I do have to apologise in advance for the shaky-looking application, I’ve been having real trouble with my joints for the last 2 weeks or so and last night my right elbow flared right up and I could barely hold the cap for the pain (but you know me… I’m dedicated to the essential cause of swatching!!) Now that the violins have stopped playing, let’s get to the pics!

As there was some sun today, yay, I took some shots in the sun, and others out of the sun, since the effect is quite different!
