Mermaid Scales on Models Own - Blueberry Muffin

Happy Thursday!

Still ploughing my way through a back log of photos, and today I have some pretty amazing glitter nails to show you. Now, I have used this combination before in this post, and I did mention this full mani, but the photos today do a better job of showing just how bloody amazing these glitters are.
Base Coat: CND - Stickey
Base Colour: Models Own - Blueberry Muffin
Glitter
Top Coat: Sally Hansen Advanced Hard As Nails

So pretty even without direct light

And here are some swatches of the lovely Models Own - Blueberry Muffin:


While this scented polish is a really pretty super pale blue, the scent doesn't really last long at all. I've had scented polishes before that last for days with top coat on, but this polish seemed like it only lasted about an hour, and didn't exist after top coat. Bit of a bummer, but the scent was just a plus to the shade for me when I bought this.

Hope you've all had a good week so far :]

NOPI - Jade In The Shade & Technic - Mermaid Swatches

Happy Saturday guys! Hope you've enjoyed yours as much as I've enjoyed mine (spent it internet shopping... and bought nothing, aha!)

Small post today, just some swatches from a few weeks back. Nicole by OPI - Jade In The Shade is a pretty blue metallic that sometimes has a bit of an aqua look to it, it's the kind of colour that you can get from pretty much any brand, nothing special. The formula on this isn't great, and these pictures show three coats.

And this is with one coat of Technic - Mermaid
Base Coat: CND - Stickey
Base Colour: Nicole by OPI - Jade In The Shade
Glitter: Technic - Mermaid
Top Coat: Rimmel 60 Seconds Clear

Pretty pretty, I think it'd look great over a dark blue creme.

That's it from me. I'll be back tomorrow for the Adventures In Stamping challenge :]
