Iridescent Nail Glitters from GlitterArty Nails - Swatches

Happy Saturday Nail Buddies,

For those of you that didn't know I am a qualified Nail Technician and have recently qualified in Acrylic Nail extensions, I am now doing an acrylic art qualification and am embracing my love of all things sparkly!!
I found an amazing seller on Ebay - GlitterArty Nails and honestly it is glitter heaven so I may have purchased 1 or 2 glitters!

Looking through all the products I was instantly taken by some Iridescent Glitters with Gold Ting so bought 10! These can be used with acrylic, gel polish and hard gel and I will be using them in my acrylic art but for swatching purposes I used them with gel polish.

So here are the glitters I got

These are 008. glitters and I got 5g bags which are 99p - how perfect are these colours for summer, I have so many ideas.

Bluebell - a beautiful blue

Snap Dragon is a neon pink

Iris is also a blue but they are definitely different - I think this is slightly dusky

Blossom is a beautiful pink

Sunflower - well you need a yellow for summer - I'm thinking ombre

Crocus is a slightly peachy pink - paler than blossom

Orange Blossom - can you see this orange with sunflower?

Thistle is such a stunning green and it really shows the gold in it

Lavender is exactly that a lavender purple colour

and finally Orchid this is the most beautiful peach colour

And here they all are together. For this swatches I did base coat cure 45sec, patted the glitter in and dusted they applied a 2nd base coat cure 45sec and added a second layer of glitter then added top coat cured 45sec and wiped off the tacky layer. I am head over heels for these colours and can't wait to try mixing with acrylic. I'm thinking of trying them for my next manicure as I need to do infills soon.


I definitely recommend checking out GlitterArty Nails if like me you have a bit of a glitter problem and be sure to follow them on Instagram and Facebook for a daily fix of sparkle!

Poundland Make Up Gallery Nail Polish

Image
Happy Sunday Nail Lovelies. A few weeks back I was in Poundland and I thought while I was there I would grab a few polishes and bits to review, for £1 each I thought i'd have a try. I settled on 3 of the pastel creme colours, a glitter, the base/top coat and a cuticle oil so in total £6 which is less that 1 of my favourite indie polishes! I started by applying the glitter to my little and index finger - I did this over a peel off base coat because I hate glitter removal! Peel off bases are amazing invention, I am currently using the Miss Sporty one which I have found pretty good, I don't really have the same polish on for long enough to do a good wear test though! Anyway the glitter I chose was a clear/silver holo, very pretty and very sparkly and I did like how it looked over my peach acrylics. I used 3 thin coats to build up a decent coverage, it wasn't full coverage but it was enough for me. If you wanted full coverage I would build it up with a sponge. I thi...

Semilac Hybrid Gel Polish Swatches and Review

Image
Hi Everyone, A few weeks ago I was sent some gel polishes from Semilac UK to swatch and review, unfortunately my current illness hasn't been playing ball so this review has been a bit delayed but I wanted to give them a wear test before posting anything as I hadn't tried them before. Semilac is a brand from Poland which has now been launched in the UK and you may know it more from the face of the brand - Amy Childs. The press info I received with my polishes says - 'The highly pigmented nature of the range creates intense colour that means often one coat of Semilac polish is required to last up to four weeks. Semilac also offers a high building formula used to extend the nail plate by up to 5mm.' 'Competitively priced at £8 per bottle, Semilac's range is a highly durable, long lasting and striking nail range that rivals the top gel nail polish brands currently on the market' So after reading all of this I was keen to get these on my nails. I was...

Barry M Molten Metal Swatches

Image
Hello Again, Today on my blog I have swatches of the 5 new Barry M Molten Metal polishes. I never tried the original 4 which were released last year but I decided I liked the look of these so would give them a try. I got them on 2 for £7 from Boots but they are also available from Superdrug (I will leave links below) Barry M are probably my favourite high street brand and I like a lot of their finishes and different effects. What I also loved about these are the big, flat brushes because I really find they help get an even coat across the nail in minimal brush strokes. As with all the Barry M polishes I have tried I couldn't find any fault with the formula - they applied like a dream, I'd forgotten just how much I like them if I'm honest - they are just as amazing as some of my favourite indie brands. So the swatches - Blue Glacier - Well you must know me and blues by now and this one has definitely got the thumbs up from me! I think the name sums it up perfect...
