NOTD - Nails Inc, Caramel and Barry M Nail Effects

I did this a while ago just to first try out the Nail Effects. It's quite simple but almost gives a leopard print effect which lots of people commented on.  It lasted quite a long time and the Caramel colour has become one of my favourites at the minute which is awesome since I got it free with Diet Coke.

NOTD - Nails Inc, Jermyn Street

This is a really nice grey/brown colour. It takes just two coats to get bottle colour and is fairly long lasting. I do get a lot of compliments when wearing this. It also dries really quickly like other Nails Inc's do.

NOTD - Nails Inc, Warwick Avenue

Yes the first thing I think of when I hear the name of this nail varnish is this! However this is a really nice nail varnish and doesn't go on as streaky as Pink-ing of you by OPI does. This is about 4! coats but it's a lot pinker in real life and slightly brighter than the bottle. I didn't photograph it in the normal style as the bottle colour really drained out the colour from the nails. It's a nice change from a nude colour without going for statement nails. Like all Nails Inc it dries really quickly and I think it may be one to look at if you feeling a bit girly!

NOTD - OPI for Sephora Metro Chic

I asked my friend to pick this up for me when she went to America and she said "of course any excuse to go into Sephora!" Sorry for the slight wear at the end of the nails but this was taken 4! days into wearing it! I have found a new way to make my nail varnish last longer and I do this by buffing my nails before I paint them and they tend to last a good 4/5 days. The buffer I have been using Ms Manicure In The Buff-3 Way Nail Buffer and I prefer this as it doesn't have the files on some of the sides so I don't end up slipping and sandpapering my nails! Anyway back to the actual colour it's a nice grey colour that's quite wearable for autumn.

NOTD - Nails Inc, London


As mentioned in my previous post I got some of the Nails Inc colours that came free when you buy two bottles of Diet Coke. It really is quite a muted lilac and is quite an easy colour to wear. It took two coats to get bottle colour and was easy to put on quite thinly. This also dried really quickly without the use of drip dry and has at least lasted a whole day!

It also lasted a campfire which I made with my guides!

NOTD - OPI Barefoot in Barcelona


Barefoot in Barcelona is a deep tan colour with a slightly pinky undertone. It took about 3 coats for a good even colour, however this dried really quickly without the use of any drip dry which I thought was pretty good. I can't really comment on the wear of this as I only purchased it on Fri and put it on today!

NOTD - OPI Malaysian Mist


Malaysian Mist is a nice tan/nude colour. It does take quite a few coats for a good even colour but it repays with minimal chipping. Which is pretty good considering I work with hot water and normally polishes tend to just flake off no matter how many layers are on or even a base and top coat.
