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

"Where did all my money go!?"

What's this- an extra post!? I told you it would happen! Before we get started, please note that other titles for this post were considered, including "Bye bye student loan", "Nails over Food" and also "Oh poo, now I'm skint" So basically, one night...I went shopping. I have only one regret, and that is how much money I spent! In total, I got 6 parcels within 2 or 3 weeks, consisting of 19 polishes, 1 "Bling it On" kit, 1 set of nail strips, 1 eyeshadow palette, 7 stamping plates, 1 nail-studs wheel, 1 pack of nail stickers, 6 packs of water decals, 1 (tiny) pack of nail-studs and finally, 2 rolls of nail foils!

Happy 2nd Blogiversary!

By
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

By
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...
