Kleancolor - Chunky Holo Purple

Hello All

Today I have for you one of the Kleancolor polishes I recently purchased Chunky Holo Purple. I started first with a base of Rimmel 60 Seconds Nail Polish - Blue My Mind. For those interested in this polish I have some pics with applied on it's own but be warned my application was a bit sloppy as I was only using it as a base coat. Blue My Mind is a lovely royal blue polish, looks almost purple.


Rimmel - Blue My Mind


I then layered Chunky Holo purple over the top. Chunky Holo Purple contains rainbow coloured or 'Multichrome' coloured glitter in a sheer purple jelly based polish. Really pretty in the bottle and looks even better on the nail.

This polish is beautiful. Looks stunning on the nail. 2 coats and you have this wonderful rainbow glitter effect. I can't wait to try the other 3 I purchased! I purchased my polishes from Beauty Joint online for $1.75 each which is around £1.00 a bottle! Super Bargain. I think delivery was around £9 but I bought quite a few polishes :-)

Have a lovely day folks

Another Vintage - Misa Pepper

Hi Folks

YES I have for you another vintage nail polish (sorry). I'm in love with these old shades. Another purchase from the nail shop. Misa - Pepper is a Khaki/Olive green polish with a golden shimmer (warning very pic heavy).








With Flash





Absolutely a to die for polish. Such an unusual colour as well. I even got a nice compliment from a shop assistant in a local beauty store, This is two coats. Formula was good. I have one more Misa polish left to show you and that's my lot. I haven't got any polishes from their new collection. I really want Toxic Seduction though and Embroidered Emerald (another discounted polish).


Any other Misa colours/shades you would recommend?

NOTD - Gosh Early Green

Hi Peoples

Today I have the second Gosh polish I purchased recently Gosh - Early Green. It's a light grassy green polish. I experienced the same sort of problems as I did with Rebel Yell. Bubbles and uneven application. I even took my mani off and re-applied. Still problems when I tried again. The colour was lovely though, a real spring shade.








This is 2 coats. Colour isn't that accurate either. This looks more neon in the pics then it does in reality. It's more muted when on the nail.

Have you tried any Gosh polishes recently and experienced any similar problems?

Andrea Fulerton Trio Nail Polish - Smile in a Storm

Hi Everyone

Today I have Andrea Fulerton - Smile in a Storm. It took me a while to purchase one of these as I thought they were slightly on the expensive side (£7.99 each). I caved in though and purchased two, this one and Petrol in Water. The Trio system is basically polishes designed for layering. The bottle is double ended and contains 2 polishes which can be worn on their own or layering them over each other for a third colour/effect. Not a bad idea that.

The first polish is a gunmetal grey polish. Perfectly on trend with polishes like Chanel Graphite being recently released. Not saying it's a dupe but rather it's in the same area of metallic finishes. Here it is on it's own.





And here it is with the second polished, a sheer pink-purple duochrome layered over the top. I did swatch this on it's own, but my nails looked manky (sorry).









Reminds me of a bubble for some reason. The gunmetal looking polish was a bit of a pain to apply. It was a bit stodgy so I only did 1 coat. Drying time took ages as well. The idea is a good one although I do think these formulas could be improved for better application. Colour was lovely, really striking. I will try and get some pics done of the second Andrea Fulerton Trio I have. Purchased them both from Superdrugs.


Have you tried any of these trios? Any thoughts on the concept?

Accessorize Nail Polish Rock Star Pin-up

Hi all

It's official. Accessorize nail polishes are fab! Today I have for you one of their bootiful polishes Pin-up. I have quite of a few of their polishes in my collection, my only complaint is that the bottles are small (10ml). Pin-up is a purple/plum based polish containing purple glitter. Very similar to China Glaze - Mummy May I in the bottle (might do a comparison) although I think Mummy May I contains larger glitter particles.









With Flash






Only needed two coats. Formula was lovely, no problems at all. Dries smooth, although I did use a topcoat. Available at selected Superdrug Stores, Accesorize UK and retails for £4.00 each.
