OPI "Can't Let Go" Swatch

By
Hey everyone!

Hope you're all having a wonderful Bank Holiday Monday and enjoy the time off if you get it!

Today I'm taking it back to basics and showing you a quick swatch of a polish I bought some time in the past few months (I've kinda lost track...oops!). Also just a quick reminder that you can click any of the pics to view a larger version of the image if you wanna see those close-up glitter granules!





So these two pics above are the only two that came out okay using only-daylight. You have Manchester's beautiful weather to thank for that!
As you can see though, "Can't Let Go" by OPI is one of their textured glitter (Liquid Sand) polishes, and this one is a beautiful dark lilac shade. I guess you could argue that it's leaning towards the violet end of the purples! It's from their Mariah Carey collection way back in Spring 2013 but definitely not outdated :)


With the flash on, you can see more of what I see on my nails right now, and that is texture and glitter! There's also a slight blue tinge to the polish which comes through every now and again, though is honestly more visible in the bottle. 


There are some larger hexagonal pieces of glitter in the polish alongside the typical micro 'sand' glitter pieces and together they truly make a beautiful nail look. The colour is also perfect for Spring!



However, I am generally a huuuuge fan of OPI's liquid sand polishes and for me you just can't go wrong with them. They just always seem to last wonderfully on my nails and I love the effect and subtle, yet in-your-face, sparkles you get from them. If only it was sunny! 
But, if you aren't a fan of textured looks or glitter, this polish won't be for you.


In conclusion then... This is a polish that I just Can't Let Go of ;) 

What are your thoughts on OPI's liquid sands?

The Random Sunday Post!

By
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

Wail: Birthday Blue!

By
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
