Shades: Pastel

For today's topic of pastel I have used yet another two Barry M polishes, that are both fairly recent-ish. The main one used here is the Textured Nail Paint in "Ridley Road" which is a pale blue-mint colour. It's a really super pretty colour, and the texture is pretty interesting! It's one of those polishes that's been in my drawer for a little while and I'm like, hmm, should I use it, should I not and it's just been pushed back!




Now the other polish I used was kind of for a little experiment, I wanted to see how easily it would go on over the textured polish. The result was pretty dang good! It went on really easily, as if the base polish was just normal :) Anyway, this polish is Barry M's Confetti Nail Effects in Bubblegum. It's a new type of polish they brought out, and I just happened to be in Superdrug when they were stocking the shelves when they first got them (coincidence-I think not!) so I was super chuffed! I really love the blues in it though, they're not exactly 'pastel' like the topic describes, but ah well, I wanted a highlight! :D
Enjoy~




Guess what! These are actually pretty easy to remove too! Who would've guessed it?

What would you do for Pastel Nails?

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!

New Polish and Organisation!

GUESS WHAT GUYS!? My Nails Inc Lucky Dip came, and wow is it just perfect! So what happens with their 'Lucky Dip' is that you get 7 polishes at random for £18, and they only do it like once a season or something. When you think that Nails Inc polishes can range from £11-15, this is a damn good deal! Plus the polishes include new and old ones- it's pretty much whatever they have in their warehouse as far as I understand =)

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!
