Top Ten - Nail Varnishes




1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10

In this post I am showing off my top ten nail varnishes, I have quite a large range so thought doing a top ten would be more interesting the doing a top three or five. I have linked each of them to where you can purchase the nail varnish. 

1. Raspberry by Barry M - It's more of a blood red colour when applied to the nail, but its perfect for a classic night look.

2. 206 by Stargazzer - I love this nude shade, looks so good with any outfit or for any occasion, it also lasts a long time without chipping.

3. Grey by Barry M - A nice deep grey shade, looks gorgeous with a matt top coat.

4. Mint by Rimmel - This colour is gorgeous for the summer, looks lovely with a tan and so versatile.

5. Bright Pink by Barry M - This is possibly my most purchased nail polish, I just can't get enough of this shade :).

6. Cosmic Polish by Eyeko - This nail varnish is just yummy, with its fine multi-coloured glitter running all the way through it, great for creating the perfect cosmic nails.

7. Champagne by Models Own - This is another on I just can't get enough of recently, it comes out a beautiful light gold, and is great to do a leopard print design with. Or even some sexy gold tips.

8. Black Swirl by Models Own - This is my newest addiction to my Models Own collection, and I love it. Its a new look on just the plain black nail varnish, as it has more of an metallic sheen running through it.

9. 265 by Stargazzer - A nice vivid pink which everyone needs in there collection, also looks fabulous with a tan.

10. Pink Glitter by Barry M - I mostly use this one for a top coat, I know glitter nails can be a bit childish (specially pink) but I just love it.

Whats your top nail varnishes? Or even just your most reached for shade?

What I have been up to!



Just a few photos of what I've been up to recently. Most are of yesterday when Lauren and me went to Thorpe Park for the day. It was a really nice day, and we had a right laugh messing about and dancing to Beyonce :). I've now just got back from my first Weight Watchers meeting, so I'm super sleepy since getting up at 6am and being at work all day. Meaning this post it extra short :(.


Hope everyone had a lovely weekend? What did you get up to?


Also would anyone be interested in me doing a summer favourites on beauty products?

Little Day Out



Today I met up with my bff Craig, for a little day out to Bicester Village, he come to mine for 1pm and then I drove down to have a nose around the shops. I haven't been since they added aloud of shops like Vivienne Westwood and Juicy Couture. I must say I felt a little let down, they had a few nice bits, but nothing amazing. 


After a nose round we went for a pub lunch and Craig suggested we could go Cowley for a bit. That is where I bought all the bargains above, I got all the Jemma Kidd make up for £6.00, grabbed it straight away as I have wanted to test the brand for ages. My other favourite buys were the two straw floppy hats I bought, as they was only £3.00 each I had to get both of the colours.


And to end the post a sweet text from Craig after he left to go home, :)

Naughty Nail Varnish


The other day I bought a few bits from Superdrug as I wanted to treat myself, I also pick up a couple of Barry M nail varnishes. Recently I had kind of gone off Barry M as I feel like it chips an awful lot, and that they are quite watery. But seeing everyone blog about the Peach Melba colour I had to get it, is such a lovely shade and will look lovely with a tan. I also picked up Berry as it was £4.99 and lilac is always so easy to wear.

I tested them out on my new nail wheels I got on ebay, just to practice some nail art and to test colours too. This was just using one coat, so as you can see the coverage is really good and doesn't looks watery at all.

Whats your favourite shade of nail varnish?

Wild Weekend



So I've been mega busy the past few days. I worked all day Saturday and then went out in the evening for a mini night out with the guys and girls. It was a really good night, tried a new bar which had '241' cocktails until 10pm, and at £3.95 that is a bargain. After going to Bar Aroma we went done to the next bar for a little bit and then headed to 02 for some dancing. 

It was a really good night, but as I had to work Sunday I didn't want to stay out too late so I ended up going home at 1am. Then work on Sunday was extra long, as I had to work until 9pm. I then had work today at 8am, so I'm just mega tired. All I have wanted to do is sit and paint my nails and catch up on blogging. 

Have you all had a lovely weekend? What have you been up to? 

P.s. The pictures are just a few from Saturday as we ended up taking over 300 :)

XOXO
