A bit of Klean fun - Chunky Holo Black

Hi ya all

So this is my 49th post. Wow doesn't time fly when your having polish fun. I want to say a big hi to all my new followers! Hello :-) So chuffed that anyone givse my little page a gander.

Today I have another Kleancolor polish - Chunky Holo Black. This is such an unusual polish, not because of the glitter (that's stunning) but because of the brown jelly consistency. I overdid it buy using 2 coats. Should of just stuck to one.

As you can see it's a brown jelly rather than black, although when indoors it's more darker in appearance. Didn't get an indoor shot though. Sorry.

My application was awful but I thought I would show you the shots anyway. The holographic glitter is really effective in this polish, indoors and outside. This is layered over Rimmel Black. The glitter particles are larger in the Kleancolor polish in comparison to the other holos they produce. It smells a bit  funky but it's worth it.

I'm going to try and get the other Kleancolors I bought swatched, as hopefully I will be putting some new orders in on their metallic range. For $1.75 each you can't go wrong.

Ta ta for now.

P.s 5 days to go til Olympia Beauty (yeah yeah).

NOTD - OPI Charmed By A Snake

Hello Everyone!

Well I've been enjoying the last few days of sunshine here in London, it's actually been warm! Yay!

Today I have for you a polish from OPI's Spring 2008 India Collection - Charmed By A Snake. A beautiful golden sandy brown, packed with gold shimmer. Surprised this is a Spring shade as I think it's a perfect fit for Autumn.

Isn't this SUPER gorgeous! I love how the colour appears to have a gradient effect on the nail! This shade and collection is still pretty much available online. This was 3 coats, application brush was appalling but formula was okay. No topcoat used on this one.

Have you got any colours from this OPI collection? I could of got two more but restrained myself :-)

Thanks for reading

A little Gem

Hello Again

After that moany post, I thought well we all need a little sparkle. Here I have Nubar - Gem, a sparkly purple/brownish duochrome polish with holographic glitter from their Prism Collection. It's a beautiful polish and interesting colour. A bit textured as the glitter is quite chunky. This is 3 coats. Formula was good considering the glitter.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend everyone!

Leopard Print Mani

Hey folks,

Today I have for you my attempt at the 'The Leopard Manicure'. Seeing as China Glaze has helpfully put a video guide on how to complete the look on their site (See Here), I thought I would give it a bash.

Now, as you can see from the wonderful execution (lol) it was a bit fiddly. For me this was a 'Monet' style of mani. From afar, this looked absolutely fab on my nails. Up close it just looked like a load of blobs not done very well. My mates were impressed at it, so I guess that's all that matters :-)

Products Used

Base - Color Club's - Love 'Em, Leave 'Em

Blobs - Beauty UK Nail Polish - Golden Chestnut

Squiggles - Models Own Nail Art Pen

Topcoat - Nubar Diamont

What do you think of the 'Leopard Look'?
