Models Own Hedkandi Hedonist!

Hello there =)
Life's been all busy-busy, so I therefore haven't had much time to change my nails or blog. But it's the school holidays now, so I think I can spare a few hours of homework/catch-up time to catch up with all you lovely folk!
My Models Own order came about a week ago, and daaaang, I'm so impressed! My friend tried her green Gel one, and I must say, it is absolutely stunning! More to follow on that when I try my blue one! For myself, I got the Blue Glint gel, Beetlejuice Pinky-Brown, Beetlejuice Purple-Blue and Hedkandi Hedonist! Ultimately, I was planning on getting the red gel, but it had sold out literally about a minute before we went to buy it, so I'm keeping an eye out in the shops because I just NEED it in my life.
I also went and purchased one of the Barry M new Silk polishes (I got Meadow, the pastel green), so there'll be more to come on that soon too!

My first review is going to be of Hedonist, out of the Hedkandi range. This colour appealed to me because on the Models Own website it looked like a perfect bright replacement for the red gel. I have never been so wrong!



This is definitely not a red polish- it's an extremely bright orange-coral, and damn does it glow! I was walking around with it on and it was pretty impossible to look at anything else because it was so in-your-face and genuinely looked like it was glowing! In my eyes, this is a great thing, it was such a lovely colour!

I spruced it up/toned it down a little by adding a 'cross' of black gemstones to my ring finger, over the top of one coat of my all-time favourite gold shimmer polish- Leighton Denny Gold Dust.


And that is all from me for now! ^^
There'll be another "I am..." post up on Monday, followed by a new polish post on Friday =) And that's the way things will be all the time from now on hopefully! Goodbye being busy, I am making time for my blog! <3
Love you guys!
See ya soon!

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!
