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!

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!

Make Sure You Follow!

Hey everyone! Apologies for the lack of yesterday's post- unfortunately this one if going to be the last before I go away tomorrow. I'm not 100% sure if there'll be wifi at the place we're staying (we're going to study the animals after all, not to be social over the internet), but just in case there is, you should make sure that you're following me on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook! I'll try to post at least one image or update on each per day, assuming that we have wifi, so to be a part of this adventure, make sure you hit the buttons!

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 =)
