New Polishes, New Swatches, New Sunshine! :D

To start things off... YAY! NO MORE EXAMS! If you still have some to go, then good luck to you my friend!
To celebrate the finishing of exams, and partially cause me and a friend were a little bored, I bought some new nail polish, yay!!

From left to right: Barry M Confetti Polish in Bubblegum, Barry M "SNP" (Sequin Nail Polish) in Black, Barry M "SLE" (Summer Limited Edition) A, Barry M "SLE" B, Barry M Gelly Mango, Barry M Gelly Passion Fruit, Rimmel London Salon Pro with Lycra Kate in Disco Fever.


The two Summer Limited edition ones you see there are super amazing, they're slightly neon but they're kinda translucent really, so I'm thinking about experimenting with using them over different shades of that colour, and I shall let you know how that goes! Otherwise, put a white base down underneath the colour if you want it a bit more vibrant! :)
The Gelly polishes, as always, are amazing! The colours are b-e-a-utiful!
And I'm yet to try the rest still but since they're all new colours I'll be sure to swatch them up for you soon!

Onto some swatchy goodness! I have two swatches for you today! Yippee! 
Barry M Spring Green~








 As you can see, it's super duper, mega shiny! This is without a top coat too! :O

And I also have a nice OPI swatch for you today! OPI Russian Navy! I love love love this shade, but the polish has gone all gloopy, so I'm going to have to go put it into some boiling water for a bit! :O

Here we go anyway, due to the gloopiness it's a little messy and so I didn't take many pictures, sorry!




Yay! Blue! Pretty blue! It's so pretty, I love it so much!!

And finally, we have something else new for England... SUNSHINE!
It's come at the perfect time too, my exams are finished, so I get more time to do things and chill in the garden and sit in the sun and what not! Here's a few pictures of yesterday, I had a little walk in the forest :) Nothing naily here cause they were looking a little bit shabby, but just for your own amusement you can have some pictures of trees and sun shine and there were some of me but then blogger squished my face! :O So never mind!

Enjoy the sunshine guy! Thanks for reading! <3 And Good Luck for your exams if anybody still has any? :D

How To: Gradient Nails

Gradient nails are a great way to ensure that your mani matches your outfit over a set period of days (depending on how many colours you use), and it also just looks pretty dang awesome. You've seen a few of my own mani's where gradients have been used (these ones below, in example), especially those in more recent posts! So a tutorial is definitely long overdue- I hope you find it useful!

Wail: Models Own Hypergel "Blue Glint"

Hello hello, good day to you! :) Welcome to the first ever on-purpose Wednesday Nail post! Freshly nicknamed as... The Wail ! Today's Wail features Models Own's Hypergel in the shade "Blue Glint" ! For those of you who don't know, the Hypergel polishes are fairly new polishes by Models Own, being released in February 2014, and they're polishes which produce a 'Gel' effect... Without the use of UV lamps. (Kinda similar to the Barry M Gelly's, but we'll get onto that in a sec) The colour I went for initially was Red Lustre  but I lucked out by a couple of minutes and it had sold out on the Models Own site just  before I went to buy it. *sniffles* So, instead, I went for the blue, cause you can never have too many blues!

Mail: Messy Mani

Hello! Let it be known that from this day forth, any nail posts posted on Mondays shall be known as "Mail's". Yay! For the first "Mail" post, I'm going to be sharing one of my new purchases with you... Model's Own's "Erase" Corrector Pen! I feel like this could be a major turning point in my blog's image quality, as I no longer have an excuse for messy mani's.  Though I'd first like to point out that I feel like I have come quite far since the beginning of my blog, and no longer post images such as this... I mean, just look at that thumb!? (Polish is Barry M Spring Green) ...Except for today, I'm posting a very (purposefully) messy mani, to show you how the corrector pen can work! Also please keep in mind that I actually did this mani pretty much in the dark, around midnight the other day. :D I quite enjoyed being super careless with my painting, actually. Is that wrong of me? Also, you m...
