Jade Holographic - Mystic Gold & Lemons

Hi all. Happy Monday.

I can safely say I am going to power through this week at work knowing I have a three day weekend thanks to a bank holiday ^-^ Anddd I've just gotten my Viva Mexico Cheeky plate in the post so hopefully the long weekend will mean I'll get to test it out. Expect Mexican themed nails for the foreseeable! Well, when I catch up with my backlog of photos.

Today I have some pretty simple nails to show you guys, and also some swatches of the gorgeous Mystic Gold. Which has become quite the favourite of mine along with Energy.

Base Colour: Jade Holographic - Mystic Gold

Jade Holographic - Energy & Haul Gifts from Susana

Hi all.

Shorty short post today as it's my birthday and I have a lot to sort out, and dinner to get ready for. Hopefully after this busy three day week at work I'll be back to posting at least once a week.

I have a lot a lot of products to review that I haven't even gotten around to using yet, so hopefully I'll find some time this week to try a few of them out. Why does time just slip away :(?

Anyways - little rant over, I have Jade Holographic - Energy swatches for you today, and a pic of the polishes Susana most recently sent me. What a sweetheart!

Above is with a flash, and below is taken in overcast light. Sadly the sun wasn't playing out when it was time to take pictures. This is three really thin coats over a base coat of CND - Stickey.

And here are the polishes Susana sent me, so excited to try the gold holographic polish!

That's all for now, I'll be back in a couple of days :]

Catrice London & BYS Black Satin Plaid

Hi all :]

Hope you've all had a good week. I'm so looking forward to tomorrow night (Thursday when I write this), going out for food and then drinks after work, yessaaah!

So today we have some nails I did back in the start of December when the sun was out one day. The base is Catrice - London, and it's stamped with Konad M60 in BYS - Black Satin.

Birthday Nails, Birthday Haul, & Layla Hologram Effect Spam

Hey everyone! I've not had a super productive time off, I mean I've not done too badly; but I've had a lot of sleep, and a lot of relaxing with Scott. So I'm feeling better, and more energetic, so my productivity can only go up this week =]

Today I have for you the Holographic spam of my first linear polish. I also have the nails I wore for my birthday (and all of last week.) And the birthday goodies I got off Scott, and Martine.

Layla Hologram Effect in Ocean Rush came to me in the swap I did with Susana from Blog do Verniz Amarelo I really love this polish so, so much. It's honestly the prettiest polish I own now. And it looks amazing under the lights at work, so the next time I wear it I'm going to drag my camera to work with me. The first few pictures are from my original swatches, and then some better pics from the start of my birthday mani.

Above is two coats, no base coat. And the last picture has a top coat on too. I didn't notice any difference in my top coat dulling down the holographic effect. But i think that probably varies with top coats and the holographic polishes themselves.

Another flash shot, and a blurry shot - but; just look at that beauty!

Subtle rainbow when not in direct light.

In the above photos I'm wearing three coats over a base coat. I can't remember if I had a top coat on or not. Below I added a coat of Color Club - Diamond Drops (I think) to my ring and thumb nails, and slathered on loads of top coat to try and get rid of the pointy edges the big piece left. I think this was only because of the curve of my nails.

Then I added some dog tooth stamping with BM322 the new large Dog tooth image in BYS - Black Satin. Later on in the week on Thursday night I stamped the rest of my nails with this image so I felt like I had something new to wear on Friday night.

Base Coat: La Femme

Base Colour: Layla Hologram Efferct -Ocean Rush

Holographic Shard on Ring: Color Club - Diamond Drops

Stamping Colour: BYS - Black Satin

Top Coat: Sally Hansen - Advanced Hard As Nails

& China Glaze - No Chip Top Coat (Pre stamp)

I loove the way the holographic shards pop in between the stamping!

And last, but not least; here's my nail related birthday goodies.

My first every NOPI! Yay ^_^ I'd list all the colours but I'm just too lazy to get up and rummage to find these!

If any one knows what colours those Color Clubs are I think I'd love you forever if you'd let me know! I think they're Diamond Drops, Sweet Pea, Hydrangea Kiss & Blue-ming, but I'm really not certain, and it's so frustrating!

Hope everyone's having a good Tuesday! & I hope you all coped with the large post!
