Gosh - Frosted Plum Swatches

Hi all.

Scheduled post from me today as I've recovered enough from Friday night to get some coherent sentences together.

This is a pretty pretty polish that was bought for me from the lovely Ashlyn at work =3 As the name would suggest Frosted plum has a really deep base and dries to a sugar-matte finish, and sparkles like no-other! From the bottle it reminds me a little of Models Own - Pinky Brown, just in the colour of some of the flecks.

There's just something really lovely and warm about the glitter, but it's almost cool-toned too. Here's some pictures with a top coat :

And for good measure have a super blurry shot which shows how sparkly this bad boy is.

That's all from me today.  Hope you's had a nice weekend.

NOPI - Cinna-man of my dreams & Nude Stamping

Hi all. Yay Saturday. Thank god it's the weekend. I feel like I've been non-stop this week!

Today I have a couple swatch shots of the lovely Cinna-man of My Dreams by NOPI.  It's a reallllly dreamy bronze matte glitter that tends to lead on the rosey side. I wore this quite a bit when I first got it back in November/December it was just perfect with the weather, neutral but warm in a way.

Base Coat: CND - Stickey

Base Colour: Nicole by OPI - Cinna-Man of My Dreams

This was two coats, really lovely and opaque.

Top Coat: Sally Hansen Advanced Hard As Nails

My manager loved this polish so much, along with A-Nise Treat when I first wore them she actually went out and bought a few polishes from the collection.

That's it from me today :] Hope you're all having a good weekend, I'm pooped from the gym this morning so I think I might have a nap and then hibernate from the world!

Nicole by OPI - Candy Is Dandy Swatch

Hi all

Sorry I've been a little MIA recently (again?!) myself and my bestie got re-motivated to start up our weight loss/fitness mission again, and finally reach out last goals. We actually joined a gym, so a few times a week (or more if i can muster the energy) will be dedicated to gym time, so even though I'm pants at blogging already, posts may become even more infrequent.

Today I have a some swatch pictures of the lovely Candy Is Dandy which is by Nicole by OPI.  Candy Is Dandy is a lovely pink polish from the Gumdrops range, It's a sugary pink with tiny little flecks of Silver, with holographic hex glitters (which I didn't manage to capture too well).

And here's a bottle shot where you can really see the holo hex.

Pretty!

Until next time my lovelies!

NOPI - I Lilac Gumdrops

Hi all. Happy Wednesday!

By the time this posts i'm hoping my newest little nephew has been born. My soon to be sister-in-law has been in labour since yesterday evening. Dying to find out his name; dying to meet him!

Today I have some swatches of Nicole by OPI - I Lilac Gumdrops from the Gumdrops line.  This is a really stunning sugar-matte frosted polish, which has the prettiest irregular silver flecks in it. I believe this is two coats shown below, not the best light, but murky overcast days are full upon the North East of England.

I really love the glow of this polish, in fact, all the polishes from this line (I still have more swatches to come). I also couldn't help but try this with a top coat, and with a matte top coat too, to see the difference.

Still very glowy with a top coat

Matte Top Coat, gives such a beautiful powdery finish!

That's all from me today! I'm hoping to be back at the weekend with some more stamping, and some more from the Gumdrops collection.

Nicole by OPI - Gumdrops Swatch & Review

Hi all!

Today I have some extremely pretty polishes to show you, Nicole by OPI - Gumdrops.  These polishes all have a lovely frosted sugar-like finish, however some are more frosted than others, some have holographic glitter & micro glitter. Basically there's definitely something for everyone in this collection.

First up A-Nise Treat:

A-Nise Treat.

A-Nise Treat is a really gorgeous Warm Black with silver glitter. These pictures show the glitter quite well, but in the swatches on a nail wheel below is where you'll get a better judgement of the real colour.  This is the first of the polishes I decided to try, and I didn't really expect to love it so much, like, so much I kept twiddling my fingers at work to watch it sparkle!

Next up is Blue-Berry Sweet On You:

NOPI - Blue-Berry Sweet On You

NOPI - Blue-Berry Sweet On You

Now this is a colour I originally thought was a gunmetal type shade, but trying it on it really showed it's true blue shade.  This is one of the frostiest of the bunch, and with the frost and the hue of blue it really gives a pretty chrome like appearance, but with this textured finish. This is one of the polishes I feel has a sort of glow about it.  Two coats was perfect coverage, and the wear on Blue-Berry Sweet On You was also really great.

All so beautiful, but these do not do My Cherry Amour any favours!

In Shade: L-R Blue-Berry Sweet On You, A-Nise Treat, I Lilac Gumdrops, Cinna-man of My Dreams, My Cherry Amour, Candy is Dandy

In sunlight: L-R, Candy is Dandy, My Cherry Amour, Cinna-man of My Dreams, I Lilac Gumdrops, A-Nise Treat, Blue-Berry Sweet on You

And because I can't help myself here's a couple of shots of these with topcoat on:

So I feel as though some of the details in these polishes are really hard to capture when they're in their normal sugar-matte form although you can see them in real life. This flash photo above really shows how the holographic hex glitter in Candy is Dandy sparkles, and My Cherry Amour, which is my favourite from the bunch shows it's looovely holographic micro glitter.  But I will talk about these more when I wear them.

Next time I post about these beautiful polishes I promise I will use my camera instead of my phone for photos so you can see more of the beauty!

The Gumpdrops collection is available from Superdrug stores now, they retail at £8.00 but Superdrug are running 3 for 2 at the moment, so grab a bargain.
