Festive Nails With Barry M Nail Paint

(left to right) Textured 'Lady', Limited Edition for Christmas Nail Paint 336 and Red Wine.

I picked up these polishes in Boots recently because I thought they would be perfect for the Christmas party season. The Textured white 'Lady' polish with it's shimmering glittering texture caught my attention immediatly and I had to buy it. Boots are also doing 3 for 2 on Barry M products at the moment so I had to pick up two other polishes naturally! The limited edition nail paint in 336 reminded me of Christmas tinsel so I wanted to give that a go and you can never go wrong with classic red at Christmas.





I'm absolutely in love with Lady, it's gorgeous and perfect for Christmas. It made my nails look and feel luxurious. In the pictures I have two coats on and I have to say I was surprised how pigmented it turned out to be. It applied very nicely and didn't have that glupy consistency that usually comes with most glitter polishes. I loved wearing it on it's own and also trying it with different shades to create different looks.

I have to say I wasn't fond of the Limited Edition Christmas polish in 336. I just wasn't happy with the over all look. It applied fine and dried with no problems. The colours are perfect for Christmas but I just didn't like the effect itself. It looked kind of messy to me and I had to take it off not long after wearing it!

What polishes would you recommend for this Christmas season, I'm on the hunt for more! MOOOOOORE!

Love,

Sarah

O.P.I Halloween 2013 collection - Rock Goddess

If you are a nail varnish fiend like myself you will or must have at least one bottle of O.P.I in your collection. It's a luxurious brand with an expensive price tag but I can't help falling over their collections. In the very near future O.P.I are launching a host of new products including limited edition polishes, a range of textured polishes and moisturisers.

This Halloween O.P.I are launching a line of really nice Autumn shades. The collection is limited edition and consists of four minis called Rock Goddess. It contains three vibrant shades. A sunny yellow called Yellopalooza, a green Stand in lime for days and a scarlet The drummer is hot. The dark shade is called Rolling bones and will give a dark edge to any nail look. The set also comes with a skull bracelet which is adjustable. 

What do you think? Do you like the look of this collection? Me likey, especially The Drummer is hot. That looks like the perfect red to vamp up any costume for Halloween or paint the town red on nights out!

Love,

Sarah

YOUR NAILS Magazine

If you are obsessed with nails as much as I am you will love this Irish magazine. It's called Your Nails and retails at €6.50. The magazine has everything that you need to know about on trend nail art, step by step guides and salon reviews. 

The nail art step by step guides are amazing and most are geared towards professionally trained nail technicians in my opinion but even for the likes of myself who isn't trained and just has a real interest in nails I have taken inspiration from these looks to create my own. This magazine is jam packed with really interesting and fun subjects. They even have a fashion section where they show you outfits to match your polish! Product news telling you what the top five selling products are, essentials and updates on new products. They also have a health section showing you the best way to take care of your nails and an education section which covers topics such as "Are artificial nails harmful?".

I really enjoyed reading this magazine over and over again, it's so colourful and full of great tidbits of information. Also check out their website yournailsmag.com for endless inspiration on what to to with your nails next!

Love,

Sarah
