LA Girl Color Addict - Delirious

Hello Everyone,

Hope your all having a marvellous weekend. The sun is shining here in London for once and I'm spending my day in the garden :-) Today I have a LA Girl Color polish from their Addict collection. I've swatched a couple from this collection before, Idol, Disorder and Intoxicate. This one is called Delirious.





Flash 





This is three coats of Delirious. Not as opaque as the darker colours in the Addict collection. Delirious is a turquoise creme with gold shimmer. So pretty, reminds me of the ocean or a tropical beach (obviously not South-end) . Price? $2.50 (£1.54) from Cherry Culture. There's still quite a few I want from this collection including Extreme, Urge and Habit.

What do you think?

Angelica Polish at Primark - Vertigo

Howdy folks,

Got a Primark polish find for you today, Angelica Polish - Vertigo. I was like ooooh! when I spotted the stand.











This is three coats of Vertigo. A peacock blue-green shade with iridescent shimmer. At first I thought it was a duochrome metallic however once I got swatching it had more of a shimmer jelly finish like similar to Bloom Bianca, although Bianca has a gold shimmer. VERY impressed with this, thought it was going to stink but it didn't. It applied superbly and dried in good time. Price? £2.50 a bottle.

Tried any Angelica Polishes?

H and M - Peppermint Fusion

Hello dear readers,

I've bought a few H and M nail polishes recently, this is one of them. Peppermint Fusion. H and M do some fab colours, cheap plus the bottles ain't weeny like some other high street polishes (Topshop I'm pointing at you).



Flash 





This is 3 coats of Peppermint Fusion, a cornflower blue with blue shimmer. Super pretty. Bit sheer but builds up nicely. I think this was under £3 at H and M.

What do you think? H and M one of your polish haunts?

Makeup Store - Kaja

Hi ya all, 

Today I have another holo to show you. While its sunny I might as well take advantage of it you never know when it will be out next here! I picked this up on my trip to Carnaby Street a couple of weeks back. I don't normal splurge on high end polishes but I couldn't resist. This is Makeup Store's - Kaja. I also picked up a teal holo Charmaine.









This is two coats of Kaja. A cornflower blue with a subtle holo shimmer. Like the colour of this one, although the holo doesn't appear strong. Formula was okay bit thicker than I was expecting, nothing like the other holos which Makeup Store has such as Madeleine. Overall this is a bit of a disappointment for £11. I don't know if other brands have spoiled me such as Glitter Gal with polishes such as Lizard Belly and the Jades which I've shown this week. Maybe I'm beginning to develop polish rot where I'm not appreciating polishes through over exposure. Dunno?

What do you think? Would you pay £11 for Kaja

How you all keeping? Today I have a really nice green metallic from the Sally Hansen HD line - Resolution.






Flash

I think I picked this one up on ebay for under £5.00? Green and duochrome...whats not to love about this beauty. I've got some Sally Hansen Opals on the way from the states, sooo looking forward to receiving them!

Bloom Cosmetics - Bianca

Hello Everyone,

Remember when I said I got some Bloom products on the cheap at Superdrugs? Well today I have one of the polishes which I picked up on the 1/2 price, buy 3 for 2 deal they was running . This is Bloom - Bianca.








Shade





This is 2 coats of Bianca, a scrumptious blue/green sea green with glowing golden green shimmer.Very jelly like, and super glossy. Applied nicely. Could of done with a third coat, as I experienced a little balding. Usually Bloom polishes retail at £8.00 each, but with the deal I paid £4.00 plus I got another polish free. I also picked up some shimmery blush dust. I think (don't quote me on this) that Superdrugs have discontinued Bloom Cosmetics from their stores, but some stores still carry the odd product or two. I was very lucky that when on holiday, the Superdrug store in Newquay still had loads of Bloom products for me to drool and deliberate over. 

What do you think a good deal?

H & M - Lady Luck

Hello Everyone

Today I have one of H & M's recent additions to their nail polish collection - Lady Luck. Duochrome/Multichrome finishes have been big in the last year or so and it's great to see the high street stores catching up and embracing this trend.





This is 2 coats of Lady Luck, a green to blue metallic duochrome. I think it's actually rather nice, Lady Luck has quite a strong chrome appearance on the nail, and less streaky then I expected. I must do a comparison to Missha HGR01, although I think this slightly darker. Price £2.99.

What do you think of H & M polishes? Any that I'm missing out on?

W7 Blue Lagoon

Howdy folks

It's been awhile since I cracked open a bottle of W7 polish. Today I have for you another favourite of mine, Blue Lagoon.






Flash



This is 3 coats of Blue Lagoon. A vibrant royal blue with purple shimmer/sheen, on the way to being a 'blurple'. Has some random silver glitter in there too. W7 polishes are such great value for money, slighty skinky with the not so free 3 formula, but they do have some amazing shades. Price £1.99 online.

Enjoy
