Must-Have's!

Doing a simple post today- a Nail Polish lover's Must Have's!

1) A White Polish
Definitely a must have if you wanna be doing some creative work :)
I haven't found an 'amazing' one yet- but my favourite so far is Barry M's "Matt White" which gives you a decent covering two-coater for a mere £2.99 (from Superdrug, Boots or Barrym.com)



Do you have a good white in your collection? I wanna try it- so share in the comments!

2) Barry M Gelly Polish
At LEAST one of them, they're just so amazingly perfect! <3

Left to Right: Blueberry, Greenberry, Guava, Papaya
3) Liquid Sands (Or Equivalent Glitter-Textures!)
LOVE LOVE LOVE, SO MUCH LOVE.
They're just so perfect and... yeahh... *sigh/swoon*
OPI Liquid Sand "What's Your Number?"

OPI Liquid Sand "What Wizardry Is This?"
Barry M Textured Royalty Glitter- "Princess"
4) Glitter Polishes!
I love sparkles- do you too? If not, then I am extremely disappointed in you dears! Extremely. (I'm kidding, you can like whatever you want)




You just gotta have some sparkle in your life :)

5) Gems!
Gem wheels are possibly one of the best things in the world- they can add a bit of sophisticated interestingness to your mani- amazing! :)

You can get them for cheap on amazon and ebay :) (Cheap being under £5 (inc postage))

6) Crackle Polish(es)!
Crackle polishes are definites for those 'I wanna be interesting but can't be bothered' days, and can really make your nails stand out from the crowd. Bring back the crackle trends guys!



7) Black Striper!
Black stripers= also a life saver. So you want to do a funky design, like a zebra print one! But the brush on a normal polish is just way too think and you do SO not want to do that with a toothpick- the striper's your answer :)



8) Matte Top Coat!
Another beautiful discovery by those nail experts out there. An amazing addition to anyone's collection, the matte top coats can make a design just that teeny bit extra interesting- even more than it was just before! :)



Beautiful! :D

And I think that's pretty much the must-have's of my nail collection :D
Oh! And a dotting tool, because dots are awesome! ^^
That's all for now, see you's soon! :)

    1. I'm so obsessed with Barry M that it litterally makes up half of my collection... Woops! :D They're all amazing polishes (with an exception to the sequin ones....)

  4. This is such a fun post! Huh... I only have 3 of these things... is that bad? :) But I live in the US so I can't get Barry M polishes (unless I want to pay like $20 for shipping)! Grrr!

Happy 2nd Blogiversary!

Hey everyone! It's officially the 2nd year of blogging over here on Nail Parade,  and I honestly can't believe that this is it, the two year mark already. I remember sitting in sixth form deciding to do this as a bit of a 'why not' thing and here I am now sitting in my room in Manchester still writing it, and loving it, after two whole years. It's really crazy!

Return of the Blogger

Howdy! How are you all? Me? I'm great! My second year of university is (finally) over, and I am so, so ready for the summer to get started - although the Manchester weather seems to be preventing this. The nail course I was doing is also over, so I'm one step closer to becoming a nail technician if my degree happens to go down the pothole (which hopefully it doesn't, because the world needs animals now more than ever in my opinion). So basically, I'm back to being 99% stress free, and extremely bored with hardly anything to do. And so, I have returned to you delightful people (if you are still there) and to any of you who join me to walk on the path of Nail Parade from this point forwards. What's the plan then? I'm gonna mess around with the blog layout a little, to start with, I think! I'm also planning lots of exciting swatches, and nail art funs for you all mixed in with the occasional book review, travel and lifestyle posts, as always, and probably...
