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 :-)

China Glaze - Rare & Radiant

 



This is easy to use, easy to apply and good drying (3 minutes a coat). The brush is really good, though it is thin and the formula is really good too. This is so similar to the famous Peridot from Chanel! Lovely polish. This lasted okay.

OPI - Innie Minnie Mightie Bow

 


This is okay to use, okay to apply and good drying (3 minutes a coat). This is a mini bottle and the brush is small, so make sure you have plenty polish on it for good coverage. The fomula is okay. It is a lovely red with a nice subtle shimmer. 1 coat would do but I used 2 coats here. It is totally gorgeous but got slight tip wear!

Orly - Feel The Funk

I am back after a little break!



This is easy to use, easy to apply and good drying (3 minutes a coat). This is a mini bottle and the brush is really good, just make sure there is plenty polish on the brush for good coverage. The formula is really good too. It is a lilac based polish with holo glitters and it is slightly iridescent too. I really like this and think it is very striking. It looks good both solo and as a topper. This lasted really well too.
