Peach Sherbert - Models Own

I am currently wearing Models Own Peach Sherbet on my nails, this is the colour that started my Models Own obsession when I saw it on my sister's friends nails I just had to have it!! I really like the colour but I do find that the colour is a bit hard to apply as it comes up a bit patchy because of the consistency, I had to apply 3 coats to get this finish. Despite this, the colour is lovely on and i've even received a few compliments *smiles*.

Magenta Divine - Models Own

For the first time since my teenage years I am wearing a glitter nail polish on my nails - Magenta Divine by Models Own. I have shied away from glitter nail polishes all these years because of the large amount of hassle it takes just to get it off your nails but, seeing as it is the Christmas season and glitter seems to be an 'in' thing right now I was convinced to buy this colour and I must say I like the colour. I am going to admit that this is the first glitter polish I have in my polish collection and it MAY become the first of many. I am however, dreading taking it off my nails lol.

It took 2 coats to achieve this coverage with a topcoat.

Pink Monday... and Friday

Yesterday I decided to go for a BRIGHT shade for my nails, I have always loved wearing bright colours on my nails so Shocking Pink by China Glaze (Neon) was a great colour to try for the first time. China Glaze describe the colour as 'High Voltage/Wow factor' which is very fitting for the colour.

The colour is really bright and is quite neon in natural light and I actually feel a bit like one of Nicki Minaj's Barbie's with the colour on lol. Applying this colour was quite annoying as it dries quite matte and opaque and after two coats it looked blotchy and uneven. It took about four coats and a topcoat of Seche Vite to achieve this look.

 My neon pink nail colour choice also coincided with the release of Nicki Minaj's album Pink Friday yesterday. After watching Nicki Minaj's appearance on the Wendy Williams show I also learnt that she will be releasing a bright pink lipstick in conjunction with MAC called Pink Friday and it will be available for four weeks from Friday 26th November to Friday 17th December but only on Friday's. The colour is allegedly a mixture of MAC's Girl About Town (a fuchsia pink) and Pink Nouveau and will be available to purchase in the UK online from MAC and Selfridges. I am not Nicki's biggest fan but I actually can't wait to buy this lipstick and try it as I have both Pink Nouveau and Girl About Town from MAC.

Essie - Marshmallow

My current nail colour is Marshamallow by Essie. Essie describes the colour as a 'cloudy sheer white, perfect for french manicures' which I agree with but as you can see I did not use it for a french manicure. I like the fact the sheerness of the coulour makes it more wearable than a normal bright white/tippex shade. As you can see my application is rubbish but it took 3 coats for that finish.
