Fridail: Models Own Beetlejuice Purple-Blue!

Hey guys!
It's finally Friday! You know what that means? It's the weekend, and more importantly...
It's a nail post! Wahoo!

This weeks Fridail post is featuring Models Own's Beetlejuice in the shade Purple-Blue!
Hope you enjoy the post, and don't forget to leave a comment below (and make sure you're following me on all the social media links to your right!)
Slightly-Silvery Appearance at times...



So! Purple-Blue, huh? What an inventive name...
But- Where's the blue!? It's very hard to find. 
The polish itself is a very nice colour, though in the bottle it seems very much like the Pinky-Brown, and appears to have a brown base-colour just like it.


It still contains the little shimmery-sparkles that are tucked nicely away into the polish yet reflect enough light to add that extra Wow-Factor!

I see light reflecting here... Yet only one colour!
Onto the slightly disappointing part then? The reflecting two-tones just... aren't there. Pinky-Brown was easy to get pictures of, you literally just tilt your nails one way or another and the nails catch the light and make it all sparkly and two-toned, but this polish? This polish was different. There had to be a significant change of light to be able to locate the two-toned part, and even then it was pretty hard to do so.

Slight two-toned-ness?

Flash-On: Finally!?
You can see in this final picture, with the flash, that it really is a two-toned metallic polish. But really, Models Own? I'm disappointed.

Overall Summary
This polish is very pretty, but the intended effect just doesn't work as nicely as it should, in my opinion. So, buy this polish if you really like the base-purple colour and would like the odd flicker of blue in your life :)
You can buy it for £5 from Boots, Superdrug, or the Models Own's Website.

Thanks for reading!
See you on Monday for an exciting new "I am..." post on books! (Yay, books!)

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...
