Three Nerd Lacquer Swatches!

So as I mentioned yesterday, I got a wonderful parcel in the mail. Three Nerd Lacquers, as well as Glitter Gal and Model's Own!  As I haven't seen much about then on the weber-tubes thus far, I thought I'd swatch out all the Nerd Lacquers and man are they purdy.  Let's walk through the pictures, shall we?

First up we have a lovely silver polish with both small and huge pieces of hex glitter.  This was so sparkly to put on, opaque by itself in two-ish coats and absolutely gorgeous.  The pictures don't do this justice, this is so sparkly and pretty. 







Next up we have It's Just a Flesh Wound.  I don't think I've ever seen anything like this one before.  It's a black base with red small glitter pieces and large silver hexes.  It looks like some kind of alien battle armour on and I think it's my favourite.




Last but not least we have Cold & Calculating.  A lilac base with, funnily enough, silver glitter pieces both large and small.  Again, sparkly, pretty and I love a huge piece of glitter.



I'm just about to try out Pinky Brown from Model's Own, check back soon as I feel some stamping coming on.....

Review: Nicole by OPI A Million Sparkles is Accurately Named

It's amazing what you can find when you wander around at night.  My favourite time to go shopping is ridiculously late and I'm extra happy when it pays off.  I've been looking for Nicole by OPI A Million Sparkles for a while now at that couldn't be more up my alley if it tried.  I finally managed to find it in a Shoppers last night and it really does live up to its name. A Million Sparkles is a predominately blue glitter that has an amazing ability to look like a foil after a couple of coats.  Combine that with gold, silver and pink bar glitter and you have a winner.  It's seriously so sparkly I got distracted from what I was saying at lunch today.  Application is decent but you really need four coats to get completely opaque coverage.  That's ok, glitter dries fast.  It's a little rough too but nothing Seche Vite can't fix.  The Verdict:  Yay glitter! If, like me, you like sparklies to the point where it's the biggest tag on y

I'm a Proper Mermaid This Time Beeeeaches

Ermerger guys, I don't have any glitter on me!  Well, I do, just on my nails.  I always have glitter on me.  And cat fluff.  It's funny how often my bf comes home with glitter in his beard.  That means it's been there all day... Anyway, new nail vinyls mean something a bit different.  I swear I'm not actually obsessed with mermaids, it just seems like it... Anyway, again, shall we?

Overlaid Red, Black and White Gradient Nails!

Ever since I did this mani recently I've been wanting to do a better version.  The colours seemed like they would work together but it just didn't turn out how I wanted.  I wanted to try again and decided to learn from my original mistakes.  For example, make sure you use a super opaque creme polish on your top layer, don't bother with horizontal stripes and using thicker lines looks cool too.
