New Year's Eve Party nails!

Hi party people!! 
Happy New Year to you all.

I really wanted to do some Dazzling party Glittery nails using one of many polishes I got as a gift from my fabulous Daughter Kim :) Which is pictured below far right the Barry M Glitter polish limited edition E334.I absolutely love this Glitter polish!

List of items used.

• Technic Clear polish.
• Laval polish in White.
• Technic polish in Black.
• W7 polish in Baby Pink.
• Barry M Glitter polish limited edition in E334.
• Various colour rhinestones.

I used the White polish as a base coat then I used the Baby Pink on each nail except the ring finger.
I then used the black polish and swept across the middle finger in a tick like shape curve.then I went down half of the little finger with the black polish.
The thumb I painted a curve shape using the Barry M glitter then did the same over the black polish on the middle/ring/little fingers.
I then placed pink and silver rhinestones across the thumb and first finger and down the little finger with the clear top coat.

 

That's my Party look nails hope you like them! 
Happiness is a state of mind... decide to be happy this 2014!
Make 2014 your best year ever! Happy New Year to all my Family and friends :)

W7 Polishes review!

Greetings all hope you all had a lovely Christmas and Boxing Day!
I spent mine with my lovely family and we enjoyed the festivities very much.:)
I got lovely gifts and polishes of course hehe but for now I want to share with you 2 pretty W7 Polishes sent to me for review by the lovely Charlotte at Aqua PR!  

On the left W7 Glitter polish in Cosmic Purple.
On the right W7 Glitter polish in Golden Shimmer.

The W7 Glitter polish in Cosmic Purple I love the sparkles of blue colour shining through the glittery purples.
This purple glittery polish is rich in colour and very sparkly in-doors and out-doors.I like the consistency and the brush application,some top coats can dull glitter but I advise a top coat to make sure of no chips as they do chip after a few days at least which is good for glitter polish without a top coat.   

The W7 Glitter polish in Golden Shimmer is by far my favourite of the 2.
It is a lovely sparkly Gold rich colour with speckles of red glitters with dazzle and glitz.
This polish can be worn alone or over polish but I used 2 coats for this review as you can see it is rich in colour and with 1 coat over another polish but I like this polish worn on its own!

Easy to use = 8/10
Application = 8/10 good brush
Drying time = 7/10
Lasted well = 8/10
Coats = 2
Finish = Glittery sparkle shiny.
Removal = as with most Glitters can be stubborn to remove but some people put PVA glue as a base coat on nails first then the polish can be removed easily I have not tried this myself.    
Overall = 8/10

W7 polishes are great and a low cost brand!I find if you cannot afford the likes of O.P.I then W7 polishes are you best bet give them ago and try them yourself. 


Huge Thanks again to the fabulous Charlotte  at Aqua PR for sending me the polishes to review :) 

 More posts coming up soon!
