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?

    So who’s excited about the Jubilee? I’m suddenly feeling very British and patriotic. It inspired me into doing some Jubilee themed nail art. Sadly I’m working most of the time, at a job where I can’t wear nail polish (I haven’t painted my nails in 2 weeks, sniff), so instead I painted it on my nail…

    [et_pb_section bb_built=”1″][et_pb_row][et_pb_column type=”4_4″][et_pb_text] I think the idea behind beauty boxes are amazing. The idea of signing up to service that sends you samples of products you may have never tried or heard of before you buy them is great. So when All About Beauty* gave me the chance to try out one of their new boxes I…

    I’ve been dying my hair for as long as I can remember. I think at age 11 I managed to convince my mum to let me put a semi-permanent colour on my hair and since then I haven’t stopped. I went through phases of changing my hair colour dramatically until I went bright red and stayed…
