Recent Nail Varnish Purchases

Okay so I lied, I couldn’t stay away from buying more nail varnish. I was weak and visited a Boots counter, discovering there was a 3 for 2 offer, so this is what I came out with…
From Left to right: Rimmel London ‘Disco Ball’, Rimmel London ‘Sky High’, and Rimmel London ‘Matte Finish’.
 
I was quite happy with my purchase, especially the Disco Ball colour, which I came straight home and used! It comes out quite thin so its better to put over another colour, otherwise you’ll find yourself doing 100 coats to get and opaque colour. I thought it would be a perfect addition to my nail varnish collection as it would be great to ‘dress up’ a nail varnish with, making pretty sparkly nails for nights out etc.
The Sky High colour instantly stood out to me, it was unlike other nail varnishes I owned, and I’ve found that quite a lot of my colours look pretty similar these days. The colour comes out as a nice bluey-green turquoise colour which stands out, but isn’t too bright and obvious. I think I’ll be using this colour a lot over the summer, as it looks great on a sunny day!
The Matte Finish is something I’ve seen on quite a few other blogs and I’ve been interested to try out! I haven’t had a chance to use it yet, but I tested it over another nail varnish and was pleasantly surprised with this product! So look forward to a NOTD post with this one soon!
Have you bought any nail varnishes recently?
Have you used out any of these colours?

  • Lavera Rose Garden Body Lotion

    During the winter months my skin becomes extra dry and sensitive, and sometimes can crack and become quite painful. So to ensure that I keep my skin hydrated it’s important to invest in a good body lotion. One product that I’ve been absolutely loving this winter is Lavera’s Rose Garden Body Lotion*. Lavera’s Rose Garden Body…

  • Concoctions Shampoo

    When I was at the TOWIB event in June, one of the brands that caught my eye was Concoction. The idea behind their brand was to mix together different ‘ingredients’ to formulate your own shampoo with what you’ve decided you want in it. I thought the idea behind it was great, but at the TOWIB event I…
