About Me

Scotland
I'm a simple Scottish girl with an unusual name and a strange obsession for nail polish! My aim is to capture what the eye sees, with a camera! Too much nail polish and never enough time. I have also started wildlife photography, which I enjoy very much. Welcome to my little world :-)

OPI The Living Daylights

I put this over Colour Alike's Purple Twist.

This is okay to use and okay to apply - it is more like dabbing so make sure you have plenty glitters on the brush by dipping it in and out a few times. Drying was okay too (4-5 minutes). Lasted really well.

Rating
Easy to use = 7/10
Application = 7/10
Drying time = 7/10
Lasted well = 9/10
Coats = 1 and dabbing
Finish = glitter
Removal = tricky even with foils, let soak for a few minutes
Overall = 8/10
Purchased from = eBay I think

My Personal Rating = 7.5/10 :-)

Orly Monroe's Red

This is easy to use, easy to apply and quick drying (2-3 minutes a coat). It is a gorgeous red with a subtle shimmer. I really like it! Noticed slight tip wear though.

Orly Trendy

This is okay to use, slightly awkward to apply and okay drying (3-4 minutes a coat). It is streaky on the first coat but better to apply on the second. It is a nice pinky colour with flecks. Lasted well.
