Blogging Break

Hi everyone,
So today's post is a little different, but I just thought I'd tell you all that over the next few months I won't be blogging as much (or at all), I'm going to be on a little blogging break.


The next few months are a really important time for me. You may or may not know but I am currently in my final year of A-levels before I go off to university. I really want to get the grades to make sure I get into my first choice. 

In order to do this I am going to have to stop painting my nails (I'm not quite sure how I'm going to manage this yet!) until my exams are over and therefore I cannot blog about them. I have prepared some posts already and will schedule them over the next few weeks. I will still try to take part in the The Lacquer Legion and the Polish Party Challenge.

My exams are finished in the middle of June so after that I am free to paint my nails as many times as I want and show you all the designs I come up with!

If anyone would like to do a guest post on my blog, just send me an email at:

Thank you for understanding,
Jayna

Models Own Roman Candle Swatch

*This nail polish was a competition prize
Hi everyone,
So today I thought I'd show you another swatch from Models Own's Fireworks collection.
Instead of showing you this collection over black like the majority of the swatches I have seen, I've decided to use a different base colour to show the versatility of the collection.
Today's nail polish is Models Own Roman Candle.


Rocket is available from the Models Own Website, Boots and Superdrug for £5.00

Simple Gradient

Hi everyone,
So today's design is something I've been wanting to do for such a long time, but have only just got round to trying out. I really like the look of gradients with a layer of glitter on top, so I decided to have a go at doing one myself.
Here's what I came up with:


I used Max Factor Mini Cool Jade, Maybelline Color Show Urban Turquoise, Fingr's Heart 2 Art The Boys in Blue and Technic Treasure Chest (Gold glitter)

Barry M Pacific Swatch

*This nail polish was purchased by me
Hi everyone,
So after passing my driving text a few weeks ago I decided to treat myself to some new nail polishes! I bought No7 Galaxy (see swatches here) and Barry M Pacific, which I am going to show you today.
Pacific is part of the new Barry M Aquarium Collection. It consists of 4 duochromes (Mediterranean, Caspian, Arabian and Pacific) and 2 glitter toppers (Treasure Chest and Mermaid). 
Each nail polish comes in a bottle with a gold cap which has scales printed on! I think this is a really nice touch from Barry M and they have also written the name of the collection on the cap too! I hope they do something similar to this with other collections!


This nail polish is available from the Barry M website, Boots and Superdrug for £3.99.
