Taxi Nails with Maybelline Fiercely Tangy!

I'm not really sure why but I've become a little obsessed with yellow polishes lately. I guess I want to make it up to the colour after ignoring it for two years. Shh, that's a normal thing to do. Totes. Anyway, Maybelline Fiercely Tangy is good at fitting in that colour cos it's yellow. Which means I of course have to put glitter on it. Taxi nails!

I guess I so neglected yellow polishes because they have a habit of being really difficult to apply. Turns out Fiercely Tangy doesn't have that problem. It's just a nice, bright yellow creme. After applying three coats I went to work with my black and silver holo square glitter. WHY IS IT THAT LARGER "SQUARE" GLITTER ISN'T SQUARE? Surely it's not that hard to do. My placement isn't the greatest here because I was having problems with the two colours being different sizes and not being cut evenly. I think I'm ok with how it turned out.

The Verdict: Love the polish, eh about the glitter. Good in theory, just not executed terribly well by either myself or the people that made it. It is sparkly, so there's that. That's always a good thing. Sppppaaarrrrrkkklllyy.

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.
