No7 Gel-Look Shine Deep Wine swatch

Hi everyone,

So today I thought I'd show you swatches of the gorgeous No7 Gel-Look Shine nail polish Deep Wine. This nail polish has been one I've been after for a long time - I was on the hunt for a pinky/burgundy nail polish for so long! I had the exact colour in my head but I couldn't find it anywhere until I saw this at No7! Personally I'm not a big fan of wearing red nail polish by itself, so this raspberry colour is the perfect compromise for me!

No7 has always been one of my go-to brands for as long as I cant remember, but I feel their nail polish collection isn't showcased on blogs that much for some reason! Personally I love the brand - they're the reason my nail polish collection is so big! - every time me or my mum would get a No7 voucher we'd buy a new nail polish - I think we practically have every shade they sell!

Anyway, enough about my love for No7, onto the swatches:

This nail polish is available from Boots and is £7.00. 
Normally I never pay full price for products from No7 as I always end up buying them with the No7 vouchers Boots give at the till sometimes!

For these swatches I used 2 coats of No7 Gel-Look Shine nail polish Deep Wine.

Application was really easy, especially as No7 have wide brushes which I love! The formula of these is just slightly thicker than normal No7 nail polishes but it wasn't a problem at all. 

As you can see the nail polish definitely lives up to its name - it is definitely high shine!

Here is a closer look:

Overall I think this shade is stunning. Its classy, elongates your nails and has a lovely gloss finish too! I'd definitely recommend it!

Have you tried No7 nail polish before?

Do you like this shade?

Let me know what you think

Mint London Swatches Part 2

*These products were provided for review

Hi everyone,
My exams are finally over! I now have more time for blogging so I think I'm gonna spend this weekend painting my nails and catching up on all of the posts I've missed! Today I have 2 more polishes from Mint London to show you.

Mint London Swatches Part 1

*These products were provided for review

Hi everyone,
So for the rest of this week I thought I'd have a bit of a swatch week! Over the past week (and this week) I have exams so instead of posting nail art I'm going to post some swatches of some new nail polishes I received from Mint London.

My first Kiko nail polish! - Kiko 265

Hi everyone,

So this is the first post of 2015! I hope you all had a wonderful new year and picked up lots of nail polish in the sales! I was lucky enough to spend New Years in London with my best friend from University. On New Years day we went shopping in London and I was lucky enough to visit the Kiko store! - my best friend couldn't believe I had never been to Kiko so she made sure we made a visit to it!  Out of all of the nail polishes on display there was one which particularly caught my eye - Kiko 265, a metallic blue. It must of been my lucky day because it was on sale too!

This nail polish is available from the Kiko website.

Barry M Persian

Hi everyone,

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and are looking forward to the New Year!
Anyway, today I thought I'd show you a nail polish which I received for Christmas! Now you all know how much I love purple, duochromes and metallic nail polishes so as you can imagine as soon as Barry M added Persian to their Aquarium collection it immediately went on my wishlist! Luckily one of my friends bought it for me as a Christmas present, and I couldn't resist testing it out!

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

Models Own HyperGel Turquoise Gloss Swatch

Hi everyone,

So today I thought I'd show you a swatch of one of my newest Models Own Nail Polishes - Models Own HyperGel Turquoise Gloss. As you may know I took advantage of their 6 for £20 offer at on of their Bottleshops a few months ago and purchase my first ever HyperGels (you can read that post here)! When I went into the shop I already knew I needed this nail polish and the fact the sales assistant said it was their bestseller made me want to buy it even more!

This nail polish is a bright bold turquoise and it stands out too! I've been looking for a shade like this for a while so I was so happy when Models Own released it!

The Perfect White Nail Polish

Hi everyone,

So I'm still on my holiday - only a few days left and I'll be back! (Fingers crossed this has posted!)

For today's post I thought I'd share with you something I've only just discovered - the perfect white nail polish! As nail art lovers I'm sure you all know the struggle with finding a white nail polish which doesn't take 3-4 coats and is opaque within 1 at the most 2. White is one of the most frequently used nail polishes for nail art, so when I found one which was budget friendly (£1.99) I couldn't believe it!

The nail polish I'm talking about is Sinful Colors Snow Me White!

No7 Night Silver

*This nail polish was purchased by me

Hi everyone,

So after all of your lovely comments on my Prom nails and Geometric accent nail design I decided to swatch the stunning No7 Night Silver.

Graffiti Nails swatches and review

*This product was provided for me to review

For more information see my disclaimer policy

Hi everyone,

So today I have some very exciting swatches for you today from Graffiti Nails. Graffiti Nails is a new nail polish brand which has collaborated with the lovely Alice from One Nail to Rule Them All to bring out 13 stunning nail polishes, a basecoat and topcoat.

The nail polishes I'm showing you swatches of are Butterfly Pink*, Morning Mist* and Pistachio*.

Rimmel Lycra Pro Aqua Cool Swatch

                                                                                              *This nail polish was purchased by me

Hi everyone,

Today I thought I'd show you swatches of the gorgeous Rimmel Lycra Pro Aqua Cool.

I've had this nail polish for a while now and I have to say it's one of my favourites!

Sadly, they no longer sell this colour at Boots or Superdrug. I think they've replaced the Lycra Pro with the 'Salon Pro' collection! I think they have brought out a similar colour to this though.

Maybelline Color Show Urban Turquoise Swatch

*This nail polish was purchased by me

Hi everyone,

So I today I thought I'd raid the archives and find some swatches I haven't got round to posting! I'm really missing blogging but the good news is I've done 1 exam - only 5 more to go! I also decided to join twitter too - something I never thought I'd do! (you can follow me here).

Anyway for today's swatch I thought I'd show you the lovely Maybelline Color Show Urban Turquoise.

This was the first Maybelline nail polish I purchased and I have to say I'm really impressed with it! I had this colour in my mind for such a long time but I could never find the exact shade I wanted (does anyone else get this?) until I walked past the Maybelline stand at my local Superdrug! As soon as I saw it I knew I had to buy it!

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

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.

Models Own Catherine Wheel Swatch

No7 Galaxy Swatch

*This nail polish was purchased by me

Hi everyone,

So today I thought I'd show you one of the newest additions to my nail polish collection: No7 Galaxy.

I first saw swatches of this nail polish on Brit Nails, if you haven't seen her post you should take a look - her swatches are stunning. As soon as I saw Allie's swatches I knew I needed to buy Galaxy, but for some strange reason I resisted buying it. 

Those of you who follow me on instagram already know that I passed my driving test a couple of days ago so I decided to treat myself to a few new nail polishes including Galaxy! I cannot believe I waited so long to purchase this - it's amazing!

This nail polish is exclusively available in Boots for £7.00, but you can always use your No7 voucher and get it for £4.00.

For these swatches I used 2 coats No7 Gel-Look Shine Galaxy.

Models Own Banger Swatch

*This nail polish was a competition prize

Hi everyone,

So today I finally managed to get round to using the nail polish I won from Models Own's Facebook competition. I won the whole of the Firework collection, which constists of Banger, Roman Candle, Rocket, Catherine Wheel and Sparkler.

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 I'm going to show you Models Own Banger.

Banger is available from the Models Own website , Boots and Superdrug for £5.00.

Nail Lacquer UK Lilac Lover

*This nail polish was a competition prize

Hi everyone,

So a couple of weeks ago I showed you my haul (see the post here), and part of that haul was a prize I received from a giveaway hosted by Naileymabob . I won 3 Nail Lacquer Uk polishes, so I thought I'd show you one of them today.

I decided to show you Lilac Lover, a gorgeous purple glitter polish. This nail polish is from the indie brand, created by AJ from Nail Lacquer UK. Sadly AJ is no longer making nail polish, so I'm very fortunate to have won this nail polish.

Each nail polish comes with it's own unique charm, which I think is a really nice touch.

Barry M Gelly Pomegranate Swatch

Today I thought I'd show show you some swatches of Barry M Gelly Pomegranate.

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