Top Five Spring Nail Colours

 Left to right; 17 Lasting Fix 'Glisten', No7 Stay Perfect 'Tangy', All About Nails 'Caribbean Coconut', Barry M 'Blueberry', MUA 'Shade 5'.


When it comes spring colours, I'm all for the pretty pastels and such like - but I usually like to go for a punch more colour like No7's 'Tangy' or Barry M's 'Blueberry,' so that when spring leads into summer - I am all set with my colours.

That being said, I like to keep the brighter colours on my toes - while the milder colours like MUA 'shade 5' and All About Nails 'Caribbean Coconut,' are usually on my nails - I find them more adaptable for what I'm wearing, and usually I can layer some glitter polish on top of the peachy colour when I want to add a bit of sparkle. 

And for special occasions I bring out the 17 Lasting Fix in 'Glisten,' - It has two tones, pink and coral with a gold shimmer. Perfect for a night out. Subtle and pretty, with glitter.

What are your favourite nail spring colours?


Have a great weekend!

Peace!!

all about nails...

Crazy claw hand returns...
I showed in this post a nail polish named Caribbean Coconut - by All About Nails - A brand I found in Tesco - they also offer face products too...

Deciding to jazz it up ever so slightly, I added 'Shimmy Shake' in Collection 2000's Hot Look Nail Polish range.

I concentrated most of the gold near the base of the nail, so it was a light shimmer at the top - and most of the nude was on show there. :)

It looks pretty. Crazy claw does not.

Hope you have a relaxing weekend!

Peace!

addictions

I have a confession. It's not a secret to my loved ones. But to you guys, you have no idea of what kind of trouble I'm in.

I'm talkin' full blown addiction here. I'm talkin' about nails. Nail varnish, in fact.

I was purchasing some foundation at tesco - bearing in mind I haven't worn foundation for about three years,  but due to my own curiosity, I payed out for some, and it is perfect, but back to my addiction...

As I was shopping around I saw a stand saying 'All About...' and there was gorgeous little nail varnishes for 99p, which were what caught my eye and some gorgeous eye palettes that I think I am going to try - I would of even got the coral blusher, but alas, they had sold out!

I purchased 'Coconut Milk' - and I love it! It's almost like a pretty pink/peach neutral, and it really suits my skin tone. :)

It took about two-three coats to become opaque, 

So, if you have a nail varnish addiction head on over to tesco and perk up your day!

Peace!
