Nails Inc Old Park Lane

Here is another one of the polishes I got in my most recent Nails Inc Lucky Dip - it's an unusual and rather lovely one...






This is Nails Inc Old Park Lane. It's a metallic polish, and though it's hard to show in photographs, it almost looks like pale copper in the sun. Very metallic and lovely. It does have the downside of not wearing very well, but since I paint my nails at least every two days, I guess that's fine.

In the pictures, I used:
  • Sally Hansen Nailgrowth Miracle
  • Nails Inc Old Park Street (2 coats - though one is maybe enough!)
  • Seche Vite topcoat

What do you think? I'm loving every single one of my Lucky Dip colours!

Nails Inc Culross Street and Barry M Blueberry Ice Cream with Models Own Indian Ocean

A couple more manis to show you, I've had yet another busy week. Another week, another Jack Savoretti concert...how I love him. Ahem, anyway...






The top pictures are Barry M Blueberry Ice Cream under Models Own Indian Ocean. I love this combo, it's hard to take a picture but in the sunshine it absolutely glows. So here's what I used:
  • Sally Hansen Nailgrowth Miracle
  • Barry M Blueberry Ice Cream (2 coats)
  • Models Own Indian Ocean (2 coats)
  • Seche Vite topcoat

The bottom picture is Nails Inc Culross Street, one of the polishes I got in my recent lucky dip. It was so hard to paint with, really thick and...painty. It looks quite nice though! What I used:
  • Sally Hansen Nailgrowth Miracle
  • Nails Inc Culross Street (2 coats)
  • Seche Vite topcoat

You can probably also see that I've shortened my nails a little bit, they grow so fast now!


What do you think?

Barry M Berry Ice Cream and Nails Inc Villiers Street

Got a couple of days worth of nails to show you tonight! Been busy for the last few days but I'm back!






The top two pictures are Barry M Berry Ice Cream with yellow Konad Q1 and the bottom pictures are Nails Inc Villiers Street, which I've shown you before. I love it, such a bright, comic book red.

I used Seche Vite topcoat as always!

What do you think? I think I need more new polishes...

Nails Inc Westminster

Tonight I tried Nails Inc Westminster from my Lucky Dip - it's lovely:






It's a purple creme, and this was perfect in two coats, very typical of a Nails Inc polish. I think it would look great with some Konad, but I'm too lazy tonight.

What I used:
  • Sally Hansen Nailgrowth Miracle basecoat
  • Nails Inc Westminster (2 coats)
  • Seche Vite topcoat

I really like it. Still looking forward to trying the other four polishes from this amazing Lucky Dip.

Nails Inc New Burlington Place and Lucky Dip

It's a bit of a bumper post today - I bought Nails Inc Lucky Dip again so I've swatched the first one, and I did my friend Katie's nails for her tonight!


First, the Nails Inc Lucky Dip. It's possibly the best one I've had so far...


L-R: New Burlington Place, Westminster, Old Park Lane, Paddington, Chelsea, Culross Street


£15 for all of these beauties!

I couldn't resist New Burlington Place - it looks so beautiful in the bottle, and it doesn't disappoint when it's on!





  


What I used:
  • Essie Fill The Gap basecoat (2 coats)
  • Nails Inc New Burlington Place (2 coats)
  • Seche Vite topcoat
This polish goes on so nicely. It's incredibly shiny and eyecatching - I LOVE it. I'm looking forward to swatching the rest of them!



Next up, a mani I did the night before:






This is Exposed in Spontaneous with Nails Inc Privileged topcoat.


Here are the nails I did for my friend Katie tonight:





What I used for these:
  • Essie Fill The Gap basecoat (2 coats)
  • Nails Inc Elizabeth St Caviar (2 coats)
  • Konad Black Polish and plate M71
  • Seche Vite topcoat
I was really pleased with these, and I'm happy that Katie likes them!

Finally, here's the new ring I got from River Island for £4! I love it!




Loads of pictures! What do you think? Which Nails Inc polish what would you like to see swatched next?

Nails Inc Chalk Farm!

Tonight's nails are another manicure with one of my favourite colours - I need some new polishes!



What I used:
  • Sally Hansen Nailgrowth Miracle
  • Nails Inc Chalk Farm (2 coats)
  • Konad Special Pink Polish and plate M59
  • Seche Vite topcoat (Wahooo! I have new Seche!!)

As well as getting new Seche Vite, I also got a bottle of Seche Restore - I've got two old bottles of Seche that have gone thick - you know, I don't think I ever get to use the last third because of this. I used about 10 drops of the Restore on one of them, and rolled the bottle for a while, and it seems to have brought it back! Good stuff. I'll let you know when I try it out.

My monthly leopard mani! Exposed in Mystic with silver Konad!

I think I mentioned before, I have leopard nails at least once a month (or so it seems!) and these are tonight's...




What I used:
  • Sally Hansen Nailgrowth Miracle
  • Exposed in Mystic (2 coats)
  • Konad M57 and Special Silver Polish
  • Nails Inc Albert Bridge topcoat

I love this purple, it's my favourite, it just doesn't show up on photos!

What do you think? Oooh, and I'm currently waiting for a Nails Inc Lucky Dip to arrive...pictures soon!
