H&M - Chica Boom Boom

Morning peoples,

I found this little number lurking in the cupboard. I had no idea I bought it? Obviously I must have, although its kinda scary that I'm not even remembering what I buy anymore! This is H&M's Chica Boom Boom.

 This is three coats of Chica Boom Boom. A bright orange which smacks you in the face 'Tango stylee'. It's a very deep orange, almost cherry red. Not at all the right colour for my skin tone (like that's going to stop me). This looks very bright in real life, my old battered camera doesn't do this one justice. Formula was a little thin and watery, but I sure it will thicken up as I use it more. Whilst I have no recollection of buying this one, I'm sure glad I did.

Have you ever purchased products without any conscious knowledge of the event?

H and M - From Warsaw With Love

Hellooo

I think I may be broke come Christmas, have you seen some of the fab collections coming out? With A England's Gothic Collection and Glitter Gal's new holos and without all the new indie brand releases like Ninja Polish, I'm going to be seriously poor. Well while your all feeling sorry for me, here is another polish I picked up on my H and M splurge. This is From Warsaw With Love.

Flash 

This is 3 coats of From Warsaw With Love. A strange colour. A magenta toned purple with glitter but it also has a brown/orange tone to it. I quite like it, I have nothing like it in my collection although I'm not sure it will be everyone's cup of cha? Again this one was under £3.00 and H and M.

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?

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?

Max Factor - Fantasy Fire

Hello Everyone!

Today I have for you Max Factor's Fantasy Fire from their new Spring Collection Via Tortona. Quite a bit of hype about Fantasy Fire as its alleged to have similar properties to the infamous Clarins 230. Looks like it could also be similar to Liquid Euphoria Bliss. I would kill for any of the Liquid Euphoria collection or a bottle of Clarins 230. That's what polish dreams are made of.

This is 1 coat of Fantasy Fire over 2 coats of H and M Notoriously Beautiful.

Flash 

Isn't this awesome? I really wish I got some shots of the H and M polish Notoriously Beautiful to show you, as it's a gorgeous purple on its own. Fantasy Fire speaks for itself, a sheer purple jelly which contains iridescent colour shifting shimmer. YES now that's what I'm talking about, how long have we been waiting for a polish like this to be available here in the UK? About time! Well done Max Factor.

Price £3.99 for 4.5mls. A bit of a stingy size I know, but this one is definitely worth the money. Available at Superdrugs in store and Boots in store and online.

Saffron London Glitter Nail Polish 05

Hello everyone!

I've been on a cheap nail polish kick recently. Buying from the 99p stores and pound shops. Today I have polish which I came across on Amazon UK. Not heard much of this brand before, It was relatively cheap...well extremely cheap at 79p each. I bought two. This glitter was one of them.

This is the polish over 2 coats of H & M Blue polish. Saffron London Glitter 05 is a sheer blue based polish containing purple, blue and hexagonal glitter. I think this was 2 coats of the glitter over blue. I really liked it, for 79p it's quite a nice glitter. It sparkled lovely outside. It absolutely stank to high heaven though! The bottle was a bit cheap looking and the cap a bit flimsy. Overall, not bad for a low priced polish.

Have you heard of this brand? Any thoughts?
