About Me

My photo
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 :-)

Models Own - Hayley's Comet

 





This is easy to use, easy to apply and good drying (3-4 minutes a coat). The brush is medium sized and good and the formula goes on nicely. It is a lovely shimmery iridescent polish. This polish must be well over 10 years old! I posted one from this collection back in January 2012! I love the shift in this polish and looks good solo and as a topper. This lasted really well.

Deborah Lippmann - Glitter In The Air

 




This is easy to use, easy to apply and slow drying (over 10 minutes a coat). It does go nicely. The brush is thin but good. The polish very sheer and didn't build up even after 3 coats! It is a milky light blue with glitter. I sadly got bored of this and took it off after a day, so no idea if it lasts well! Probably better as a topper!

Color Club - Fly With Me

Long time no see! Sad to report Ciate didn't release a nail polish Advent Calendar and I couldn't bring myself to buy another haha! 





This is easy to use, easy to apply and good drying (3-4 minutes a coat). This brush is thin but really good and the formula is good too. It is a lovely shimmery green and the shimmer is kinda yellow and golden. This lasted really well.
