Fridail: Colour Me Crazy- Pink!

Hey everyone!
I hope you've had a good week, and anybody who got results yesterday did well enough to get where they wanted! I did, and am going to Manchester Uni to study Zoology in September! Woooooo!!

So, onto the post! Here's my pink mani for the British Nail Blogger's Challenge!



For some reason, my camera had difficulties picking up the colours of this mani properly. I think it was the lighting, but I tried a few different ones with no change, so I may have another go in broad daylight and replace/add any images that turn out better!


The brighter polish seen in this manicure was Models Own's "Shades" from their Polish for Tans collection. It's a beautiful glowing pink colour that can come across as more of a peach (but not as much as "Beach Bag"). I feel like it's kind of bringing out my tan a little, as the name suggests, but I must stress that the shine here is coming from the topcoat I used and not from the polish itself, which is actually semi-matte. 


The marbled parts of my nails here are done by using the 'pin marbling' method in Leighton Denny's "Pillow Talk" polish. It looks red in some pics, but it's really a dark pink!


Edit: I got some better photos! They actually match the colours perfectly, so here!





I hope you enjoyed this post then! I should have a book post for you on Monday, followed by a swatch and a purple mani later next week! See you all soon!

  1. These look great especially on the accent nail - I think it looks like pink flames! Well done on getting into university, hope you have fun. :)

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
