Claire's Candy Shop & Crackle

So this polish was sent to me as part of a swap from Iris over at Polish Amor, and I can't believe I haven't posted about it yet. Again these photos are from a while back.

Claire's - Candy Shop is such a nommy, amazing polish I love love love it. It's a pink jelly with multicoloured glitter pieces that range from small round glitter, to large hex glitter. But most of you have already seen this beauty, or Deborah Lippmann's - Candy Shop. So onto the pictures :]




Then I decided to add a black crackle, and I loved it even more, I'm kinda hit and miss with crackles, every now and again I think they look okay, but I don't actually like to wear them. But I loved this combo so much, and the photos don't do it justice it all.


 & Then I added a top coat. The more I look at these photos the more I'm disappointed, in person the glitter would catch your eye between the crackle, but they kinda look blah here.



I hope everyone's having a good Wednesday :] This was meant to be a scheduled post for Thursday as I will be ingredient shopping for Scott's birthday cake stuff, but blogger decided to be a pain the butt ¬_¬

OPI - Nevermore Swatches

I thought I'd share my swatches of OPI's Nevermore, Which I received from Iris along with some other crackers! I also though I'd share some other news about the giveaways I've won. I've had some great luck recently :]

First up the swatches. Nevermore is a stunning dark blue-purple, kind of duo chrome, with blue shimmer, and purple flecks. I seriously love this colour, I have nothing in my stash like it.





Look at all that gorgeous In the bottle!


Pretty certain none of these photos do this beauty justice!

This is how I received the polishes I got from Iris. How pretty is that paper!

Revlon - Whimsical, Claire's - Candy Shop, OPI - Nevermore

All so gorgeous, and all graced my fingertips the same day as I got the package - Even though I had just finished my nails :P So a biiiig thanks once again to Iris at Polish Amor for these ^_^


I thought I'd also share my winnings from Lucy's Stash. I won prize number two in her Blogiversary Giveaway. I don't think I'll share swatches, but from what I've tried so far I'm loving Elf, the shimmer pencil is gorgeous. Downside - I'm obssessed with trying to pull off the Lipstick in the sleek box. I love the colour, but I'm not sure I rock it :P



Ah this seems like a long post! I've also just had news that I won The Lacquered Nail's first giveaway, And the main goodie is a Barielle! I'm so excited!!!  :D
