OPI Can’t Let Go Liquid Sand

Hello lovelies! Firstly I want to apologise that I did miss a few days in April – a total of 6 😮 so I am really sorry but I’m just trying to work out a way to fit it round my daily routine. Anyway!

Today is another day of the ‘A-Z Series’. This is between myself and a lovely group of girls who I will list at the end of the post! The idea is that on the day we post, we choose a polish with a name that begins with the corresponding letter for that week. This week is ‘C’, so I have chosen and untried for me – OPI Can’t Let Go, a Liquid Sand from the first Mariah Carey collection.

GOSH Frosted Purple

Hey chickas! A while back I picked up two GOSH Frosted Sand Look polishes… and promptly forgot about them. I’ve worn this one once already and adored it, so when I decided last night that I needed something glittery but not too OTT for my interview today, this sprung to mind.

The cap on these is sparkly and slightly textured too… it’s the little things! It promises a “glittery matt finish” – which is certainly accurate! You know what I’m like with textured polishes… there aren’t enough of ’em in this world…!!! I can’t get enough!

Rimmel Sweetie Crush Swatches & Review

Press Sample

Hello everyone!! So a really exciting package came through the post this morning from Rimmel 😀 it contained the new Sweetie Crush collection and the new Rita Ora collection (more on that one soon!) and this lovely little set of biscuits – a big smile was painted on my face and I got right to work!

I hadn’t heard much about the Rimmel Sweetie Crush collection before today, but I can tell you that it’s a collection of 5 gorgeous sweetie-inspired textured polishes, all in lovely Spring/Summer shades! I have to say I love the packaging too… the cute retro sweet-shop awning on the caps is just adorable!

Yellow, Is It Me You’re Looking For? – Rainbow Series

Hey there everyone 🙂 today is week four of mine and Charlie‘s Rainbow Series! In this collaboration we show a different colour each week, and this week is yellow. I have to admit, yellow is a colour seriously lacking in my collection, mostly because it looks pretty terrible against my skin! The reason why the majority of my favourites that I’ve picked out are Barry M polishes, is because I have collected pretty much the entire line of Barry Ms and more, so naturally I have a few of their yellows!

I feel like I’m cheating a bit with these favourites, because in all honesty I only have seven yellows in total, and I’ve picked out 5 faves! Oh well. I do really quite like these ones, mostly on other people though 😉

You’ve Been Tango’d! – Rainbow Series With Pocket Money Polishes

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.
