Barry M Gelly Hi Shine Nail Paint Review & Swatches

Barry M Gelly Hi Shine Nails Paint* (£3.99) A while back, Barry M added four new shades to their popular Gelly Hi Shine range. The shades were Black Currant, Black Cherry, Black Grape and Black Pistachio, which all look super dark and vampy. What I love about these nail polishes is that you can pretty much get two different shades from one bottle. One coat gives you gorgeous opaque finish of purple (black currant), burgundy (Black Cherry), blue (Black Grape) or green (Black Pistachio), but as soon as you start to layer up, you’ll get a “black” finish with a…

INM Northern Lights Hologram Top Coat Review

It’s almost Christmas and we’re all talking about glittery golden nails. I’ve seen a lot glittery nails features, but I’ve only seen two mentions of these INM Hologram Top Coat in Gold and Silver so far, but they’ve both been positive ones. I mean who doesn’t like sparkly nails? I was lucky to try out these INM Northern Lights Top Coat from Jica this month because they are stunning and looks really sparkly both in the bottle and on my nails. Jica is an online beauty store that stocks some smaller lesser known, yet very exciting brands like INM. Left: 17 Knockout Red…

Nail Polish: 5 Shades of Winter Review and Swatches

Every blogger loves pretty nail polishes, but I hardly ever review them on my blog because I’m rubbish at applying them and my nails aren’t very pretty looking. However, I managed to find a way to make it work! I ended up buying one of these nail colour wheels, so instead of displaying my horrible nails on my blog, I’d use these instead. 😉 This post was actually meant to go up for a autumn nails post, but since I’ve given myself so many  blogging projects, I’ve never got around to getting it up until now! Nevertheless, purple, gold, red…

Diamond Digger Saga Launch Party with Sophy Robson

How does nails and one of the most popular games on the market, Diamond Digger Saga relate? Well, I had to ask myself that question when I got an invite to the the Diamond Digger Saga launch party with Sophy Robson last Tuesday at Convent Garden Hotel! Because it was a Tuesday evening, I managed to forget my Oyster card, again! It seems to have become a Tuesday ritual now. So I went back to get it (wasted like loads of time) and arrived a little late, missing out on the canapés, which was apparently really yummy. However, I did get a warm…

Autumn Nails: Dielle Nail Colour Review

After one year of blogging, I can definitely tell you that I’ve collected enough nail polishes to last me a good few years assuming that the quality of these do not deteriorate over time. Oh I wish that all nail lacquers would last more than a year before going dry!  Anyways, I recently discovered a new nail polish brand called Dielle! The quality of Dielle Eco-Chic Nail Colour is beyond expectation and they are free from harmful toxic and chemicals. Their nail polishes are 5-free, meaning that they do not contain toluene, formaldehyde, DBP, camphor nor pthalic acid, which are…
