NOTD - Love and Beauty by Forever 21

Hey Peeps,
I got this awesome polish in a grab bag I purchased the other day. It is Love and Beauty by Forever 21. The polish doesn't really have a name, it just says 'Polish/Shimmer/Grey/Hot Pink'.

The formula was nice but I would have liked the 'grey' to be not so thin. Apart from that, no other issues.

The pics are 2 coats with 1 coat of Essence Quick Dry Top Coat and 1 coat of Seche Vite. The Essence is a real glitter food and makes the Seche as smooth as glass. I picked this tip up from my nail crush, Strawbrie (Brie), and you can find her on instagram. Her nail art, swatches, nails, EVERYTHING, is awesome!!!

Late Night Mani

Hello peeps,

So I stayed up WAY too late last night waiting for this mani to dry. It was about 1am before I dragged my sorry butt into bed. LOL. Its 2 coats of Color Club HoloHues 'Cherubic' with one coat of Lush Lacquer 'Clowning Around', which I know is a MAJOR lemming of a lot of the Aussie girls as Lush Lacquer has stopped doing international shipping.

I just love the HaloHues Collection. Perfect formula. GORGEOUS holo. Great wear time even with me having 2 young boys and a farm to look after!

'Clowning Around' is such an awesome polish. It has just enough glitter in it to look great but not so much that the nail looks busy. The glitter is MATTE NEON!!! Need I say more???

The end result is so hard to capture but IRL it is amazing!!!

If you want to purchase Lush Lacquer 'Clowning Around' you can get it from Llarowe or Mei Mei Signatures, but it sells out so quick so I suggest signing up to updates from both sites.

Such a bad pic, sorry. It was 1am, remember.

KBShimmer mani

Here is my mani with the KBShimmer I recieved in my grab bag. Its called 'Proud Peacock'. The formula was lovely and lots of glitter came out onto the nail. What are your favourite KBShimmers. You can buy them at Harlow & Co.

Grab bag haul!!!

I purchased a grab bag from a nail friend on the internet and this is what rocked up! She said she would be putting 10 polishes in but she put in 12!!! What a great woman!!!
