Fridail: American as Apple Pie!

Hi there! Welcome to the "Fridail" post! Though yes, it is Saturday today...
Things have been rather busy this week, so apologies for the lateness, but it was well worth it I promise!
Today I bring to you a new red polish, and it is definitely at the top of my list of all-time polishes! So which polish is it?
It's a Nicole by OPI polish, from the Carrie Underwood collection, and it's called...

American as Apple Pie

Dang, it's making me hungry! What an adorable name though, I love it!



The first point I'm going to make here, is how many coats it takes to get this awesome, vibrant coverage. Any guesses...?


I'm just gonna tell you now. ONE. It takes ONE average-thickness coat to get that bright of a colour. I was seriously so impressed! Seriously, just look at it!

These pics are only with one layer of top coat as well, and just look how shiny they turned out! I'm definitely in love with it! <3
Plus, I took all of these pictures after wearing it for at least 3 days, and during that time they've been washing up, shooting people at Laser Quest, an exam and many hours of calculator-tapping and schoolwork-writing. And I can't see any chips! Amazing. Love it. Best. Red. Ever.

Now I just have to save up some money to get some more from the collection, hehe!
This polish was £7.99 from Superdrug
(And so totally worth it!)

Removal was also super easy. I used a normal nail polish remover and some cotton wool balls, and it came off like a dream in under 5 minutes. No harsh scrubbing necessary! Plus, it didn't stain- which I understand is generally an issue with bright reds, so all the more reason to buy it!

Will you be buying this polish? Let me know in the comments!
See you next week!

The Random Sunday Post!

Hello everyone! This is a super quick random post just to say I'm back and also what will be coming up this week! So, I'm still due a Blue Nails post for the British Nail Blogger's Colour Me Crazy Challenge- this will be up tomorrow instead of a Book/Lifestyle post! From Wednesday, the normal posts will resume, so you can expect a Pink Mani on this day for this week's challenge nails! Then on Thursday, it's A Level results day, which means a lot of nervous stressy things to sort out, and I may not have time to write up a post in time for Friday- but I will definitely try, and also update you all in my potential University place! If there is a post on Friday, it'll be a typical naily post- probably a swatch of something! And that is all I think you need to know! Good Luck to anyone else getting results on Thursday! ~Rachel

Your Guide to Barry M Gelly's!

Finally , the time has come for the ever-promised "Barry M Gelly Polishes Review & Swatch" Post! YAY! Now, now, settle down, settle down, and prepare yourself for an image-heavy post! Panorama View? Yes please... Okay, so that picture isn't too great. But there's the colours that between us (Me and Rhian) have in the Gelly range. We're only missing "Grapefruit" I think...

Wail: Birthday Blue!

Hi everyone! So it was my 18th birthday yesterday, hence why this post is a little late! But I have a fun post for you all to enjoy :) Introducing to you- my birthday mani! I love love love these polishes- I think I've only used them once each, but wow, they're just amazing and I definitely need to use them more. Apologies for the little bit of tip-wear, it's been on since Saturday (so, 5 days between application and the picture taking!) so the wear on these polishes is actually very good! The first polish is Rimmel London's Salon Pro by Kate, in the shade "Britpop" which is such a fun name! The colour is also absolutely stunning, it's such a rich blue, but is kinda bright at the same time and a borderline dark teal colour. The brush for application is also pretty wide, which makes coverage super easy in only one to two strokes! There's another bonus too- the polish is very shiny even before a top coat! Totally recommend this polish, a
