A bit of this and that

Hi ladies,

I was still in an inspiration slump, so quickly put together a simple skittled look using green and gold. I used OPI My dogsled is hybrid, Hello Kitty Golden girl, OPI My vampire is buff and Essence Make it golden.

Even though it's simple, I always find these quick skittle looks the most effective :)

Navy anchor

Hi everyone,

One of my colleagues requested a blue and white nail look and since she loves anchors, I came up with this look :)

I used China Glaze First mate, Hello Kitty Golden girl and Ulta3 Pot of gold.

It didn't turn out too clean and I wish I had redone my pinky. Still, she liked it :)

Thanks for reading.

Teal and Holographic!

Hello everyone.

I feel like it's a constant catch up game I'm playing here! Whilst I have slightly lost the blogging motivation, the nail painting bit is still going strong so I've got a fair backlog of photos to get through. And of course, I don't usually remember the nail polishes I used by the time I get around to posting here. I'll try my best though :P

The teal is Rimmel London Do not disturb, the silver holographic is China Glaze OMG and I believe the teal glitter is Shimmer Polish Jasmine.

Thanks for reading!

Swatches & review: OPI Nordic collection

Hi ladies.

This is super late, but it's better late than never, right? :) I have my picks of OPI's Nordic collection for you today. They're all crèmes and definitely right up my alley! To save from repeating myself, all the shades have a great formula and were opaque in two easy coats.

First up, I have the delightful My dogsled is hybrid. It's a beautiful shade and I can see myself grabbing for it often as Spring settles here in Australia.

Can't aFjord not to is a pretty orange. It's not too bright to be in your face, so for someone like me who usually hesitates with orange shades on my nails, I can see this being quite wearable.

Suzi has a Swede tooth is a surprise love for me. Not one to reach easily for pink on my nails, I found this one very wearable against my skin tone. Another one I'll be using often in the upcoming warmer months!

Do you have this color in Stockholm is pretty different to the last three shades. This one is wham-pow in your face in comparison! Not neon bright, but definitely very saturated and and amazingly rich in colour. Being a purple lover, this is of course another one which will be given a fair bit of attention amongst my stash.

I know it's been a while, but have you picked up any of the shades from this collection? What are you thoughts on these four nail polishes?

Thanks for reading.

Blue and gold skittle

Hello hello~ Another mani from awhile back, so I'll try my best to recall the nail polishes :P I believe the base is OPI Road house blues, the gold is Ulta3 Gold rush fever and the glitter OPI I reached my gold.

It was something I put together whilst lacking inspiration - plus, I haven't stamped in awhile :) Still waiting to get my mojo back!

Thanks for reading.

Rainbow watermarble

Hi ladies :) I felt like I hadn't watermarbled in the longest time (meaning over a year!) and after seeing a whole bunch of beautiful watermarbled nails on instagram, I was inspired to create my own. These were done way back in July so I don't really remember the polishes used, except for the one I'm holding on to...oops! The orange is definitely OPI Call me Gwen-ever. Oh, and the holographic sparkle is from Glitter Gal Galaxy Holo Top Coat.

And under the sun

The marbling does look a bit random, so I'm hoping that with some more practice, I can get some uniform designs coming up :)

Thanks for reading!
