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!)

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!
