Sally Hansen Ionic Indigo Magnetic Polish With Stamping

Hi all.

I can't believe it's been over a month since I last posted.  However, in this space I've done a lot of home improvement with three trips to IKEA (including my first ever trip there!), turned 25, gotten a new tattoo, went for many wonderful dinners, and I currently have family up as my brother's wedding was on Friday, so a lot has been happening!

Today I have some really simple, really boring nails from a few months back.  I'm really hoping I start getting back into nails as much as I used to be and find some creativity!

Base Coat: CND - Stickey

Base Colour: Sally Hansen Magnetic - Ionic Indigo

Stamp Colour: Barry M - Silver Foil

Image Plate: Bundle Monster BM422

Top Coat: Sally Hansen Advanced Hard As Nails

And here's a picture of the base colour.  I always have problems with magnetic polishes drying too quickly and only getting the pattern to show on one part of the nail, so for this I painted half the nail, and used the magnet, and did the same on the other half.  Worked out quite well I think.

And for good measure here's how amazing and cosy, and lovely and clean and tidy my new room is:

I went a little OTT but was so sick of my dark (and unfinished) room something had to change!

Hope you're all having a lovely weekend =]

Magnetic - Freakin' Vioet, Jelly, Shimmer, Flakies, Nomnomnom!

Another swatch of a polish I won in a giveaway from Parokeets this polish is amazing, but daaaaamn it's hard to photograph, trying to capture the shimmer and the flakies and it's so shiny!!!

But yeah, gorgeous Indigo Jelly with Violet flakies, and Green shimmery goodness.

Magnetic - Freakin' Violet - 3 coats (just to cover visible nail line)

Bottle shot for the goodness.

I Won My First Giveaway!!! :D

I say first optimistically! A few weeks back I entered this giveaway over at Parokeets Blog, and at the start of September I found out I won! I was just checking out their post on the winner when I seen my name and almost had a heart attack! Yesterday I received my goodies and my god, it was like Christmas morning in my living room ^_^

Unwrapping these was awesome xD

All my goodies! I can't wait to try these all out :D
