Fridail: Models Own Beetlejuice Purple-Blue!

Hey guys!
It's finally Friday! You know what that means? It's the weekend, and more importantly...
It's a nail post! Wahoo!

This weeks Fridail post is featuring Models Own's Beetlejuice in the shade Purple-Blue!
Hope you enjoy the post, and don't forget to leave a comment below (and make sure you're following me on all the social media links to your right!)
Slightly-Silvery Appearance at times...



So! Purple-Blue, huh? What an inventive name...
But- Where's the blue!? It's very hard to find. 
The polish itself is a very nice colour, though in the bottle it seems very much like the Pinky-Brown, and appears to have a brown base-colour just like it.


It still contains the little shimmery-sparkles that are tucked nicely away into the polish yet reflect enough light to add that extra Wow-Factor!

I see light reflecting here... Yet only one colour!
Onto the slightly disappointing part then? The reflecting two-tones just... aren't there. Pinky-Brown was easy to get pictures of, you literally just tilt your nails one way or another and the nails catch the light and make it all sparkly and two-toned, but this polish? This polish was different. There had to be a significant change of light to be able to locate the two-toned part, and even then it was pretty hard to do so.

Slight two-toned-ness?

Flash-On: Finally!?
You can see in this final picture, with the flash, that it really is a two-toned metallic polish. But really, Models Own? I'm disappointed.

Overall Summary
This polish is very pretty, but the intended effect just doesn't work as nicely as it should, in my opinion. So, buy this polish if you really like the base-purple colour and would like the odd flicker of blue in your life :)
You can buy it for £5 from Boots, Superdrug, or the Models Own's Website.

Thanks for reading!
See you on Monday for an exciting new "I am..." post on books! (Yay, books!)

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
