Live Love Carnival Milky way

Hi ladies! :) One of my favourites from OPI's Brazil collection is Live Love Carnival, so I just had to pull out this beautiful coral to use a few weeks back. I also layered a coat of Alanna Renee Milky way over it for the gorgeous iridescent glitter finish.

I absolutely adored the bright base paired with the glitter ♥

Shopping the Stash: R for Rimmel

Hey ladies! The only brand in my stash which begins with 'R' happens to be Rimmel, so I pulled out my favourite grey in Grey matter. I decided to try out a grey holographic combination and so layered two thin coats of Glitter Gal Galaxy Holo top coat over it.

I love the look of this grey with a holographic finish. What is your favourite grey polish?

Thanks for reading.

An Office Pirouette!

Hello there :) I've been quite short in time recently with work, as well as preparing for a (well deserved, imo!) holiday, so layering has been the way to go to spice up my crème polishes. This is two coats of Misa Office Polish-tics layered with OPI Pirouette my whistle.

I love the soft look of Pirouette my whistle paired with the dusty dark blue base :)

A studded naked canvas

Hello ladies. I decided to combine some neutral and black shades to create a chic way to wear black. The neutral and off white shade is Orly Naked canvas and the black is OPI 4 in the morning. I decided to layer Essence Make it golden over Naked canvas as an accent on my middle finger. To match the gold accent, I also placed some studs on my pinky & index.

What do you think of this look? :)

Thanks for reading.

Swatches & review: Ulta3 Lip Paint

Hi everyone! Today, I have something a little bit different - it's a non-nail related post. I have been dabbling a lot more into makeup for awhile now and would love to share my experience too. Whilst Polish Infatuated started off as a nail polish focused blog, I think a lot of readers are also interested in makeup, which is why I have finally decided to post about other beauty products too. Don't worry, this blog will definitely remain focused on nail polish, but I'll also be posting about makeup every now and then :)

So, onto the lippies! I have been rather obsessed with colours this past summer and the Ulta3 Lip Paints arrived just in time before the season ended! From top to bottom: Manic Mauve, Eclectic Orange, Extreme Pink, Radical Red, Loud Purple, Expressive Fuchsia.

These lip glosses are bold and very opaque - they're definitely not for the faint of heart! The lip glosses come with a doe foot applicator that I was pleasantly surprised with, considering the super affordable $5.95 price point. When the gloss is applied, I felt a soothing cooling sensation, which I think is due to the peppermint oil present.

Here is a quick swatch of each shade on my arm. Manic Mauve is definitely the 'safest' shade of the lot and was the one I was drawn to many times when I first tried them on. Expressive Fuchsia has really caught my attention recently though, and I find myself always reaching for it now.

Are you a fan of bold lippies? What are some good recommendations? :)

Thanks for reading!
