Mail: Models Own "Asscher Blue"

By
Hey guys!
Sorry the post's a bit late- life is just so distracting!

Anyway, today I have one of the polishes I bought last weekend to show you! And a cool new technique I just learnt thanks to Nailsxo! :)

Today's polish is... Models Own's Diamond Luxe "Asscher Blue"



So, this polish is a very pretty, kinda bright but not in-your-face sky blue that has a gentle shimmer running through it as they contain "real diamond dust" (not bad for a fiver!).


Application is smooth and simple, especially with Models Own's typical wide-ish brush that means you only need two/three strokes per nail. It really is a stunning blue polish, and would be a pretty awesome addition to your collection, especially in time for Winter and Spring! 
You can pick one up in Superdrug or ModelsOwnIt.com for £4.99!


And this brings us nicely to a new technique! I saw this on a facebook post by "Emily Nailsxo", but she's got a tutorial post on how to do this- and here's the link! 


It's a pretty cool effect, and not too hard to do either- plus you only need a polish and a stick really. And something like clingfilm to put polish onto. But it looks awesome and feels really fun, and is totally, totally worth it. 


The polish I used to "spin" is Barry M's new Silk "Forest" which is a gorgeous colour that I'll be swatching probably for Wednesday! 



And that's it folks, I'll be back tomorrow since I've been nominated for a Liebster award again (yay!) so I'll be answering those questions!

    Aww thanks for the mention I'm so happy you found the tutorial helpful! Could I include these on my 'Your Nails' page on my website? It's a place for people who have been inspired by my designs, tutorials etc. ?

    I love how amazing the sugar spun nail art looks and it's only your first time doing it! I also love the colour blue and that nail polish is soooo nice! xx

Swatch Watch: OPI 'Sprung'

By
Greetings! Wooo time got away from me for a couple of weeks. Has it really been so long already? My apologies to any of you who have been eagerly waiting for new swatches (I know I have)! To make it up to you I've got a swatch for you today which, in my opinion, is pretty "in season" right now. I'm talking about the Rose Gold trend that's been going on for a year or two now - who would of known it would become so popular? Today's nail polish is: OPI 'Sprung'. It sounds like it should be a spring green kinda colour... but nope! This polish is a beautiful rose-gold kind of colour with a perfect amount of shimmer to be classy and sophisticated. Don't believe me? Here it is! Fact File: Brand:  OPI Polish Name:  Sprung # of coats:  3 + (applies quite thin) Finishing Texture:  Smooth, shimmer Cost: £3.10 at the time of writing, on tnbl.co.uk So I paired this polish with this gel-finish dotty topcoat... thing. That sadly, has no n...
