Shades: Matte

By
Oh no... the World's going crazy... I have pink nails... again. o.O (Dun dun duuun)
I do also have blue on though... so it's kinda contradictory (I hope!)
Anyway, I wanted to see what would happen to Barry M Denim Polish with a matte coat, so that is what I did! :) And it's very pretty! :D The polish itself dries quite matte-effect anyway, but the little glitter pieces still shimmer through quite a bit. Adding a matte-coat on top makes it even more like jean-denim!



The pink colour used is Barry M Gelly in Pomegranate :) Matte-coating the Gelly polishes just makes the colours even more vibrant and amazing than before, probably because you're getting less light-reflection, and more colour! It's amazing, so definitely experiment with it if you have any Gelly polishes at home :)

So anyway, here is some jazzy jazzy pictures for you!





As you can see, the denim does still give a little bit of a shimmer, and the gelly does still give a little bit of a shine, depending on the light :)
I did each hand a different general colour, with a highlight ring finger in the colour of the opposite hand :) I actually liked them being all mis-matchy too, so expect to see more of that in the future from me!

Hope you like the matte-shade day then :) Tell me your thoughts and your own matte-designs in the comments below! :D

Swatch Watch: OPI 'Sprung'

By
Greetings! Wooo time got away from me for a couple of weeks. Has it really been so long already? My apologies to any of you who have been eagerly waiting for new swatches (I know I have)! To make it up to you I've got a swatch for you today which, in my opinion, is pretty "in season" right now. I'm talking about the Rose Gold trend that's been going on for a year or two now - who would of known it would become so popular? Today's nail polish is: OPI 'Sprung'. It sounds like it should be a spring green kinda colour... but nope! This polish is a beautiful rose-gold kind of colour with a perfect amount of shimmer to be classy and sophisticated. Don't believe me? Here it is! Fact File: Brand:  OPI Polish Name:  Sprung # of coats:  3 + (applies quite thin) Finishing Texture:  Smooth, shimmer Cost: £3.10 at the time of writing, on tnbl.co.uk So I paired this polish with this gel-finish dotty topcoat... thing.
