a england - Beauty Never Fails & a england - Holy Grail

I always get very excited when I find new nail polishes from a england in the mail! Today I'm wearing two new shades, Beauty Never Fails (a black base with gold and olive green coloured flecks) and the revamped version of Holy Grail (a mesmerizing gold coloured foil). I wanted to combine these two sparkly polishes on my nails and I think it turned out really well! The formula of Beauty Never Fails and Holy Grail is excellent; both polishes are easy to apply in two coats. I used tape to create the "V" shapes.

a england nail polishes are available on the a england website.

Thanks for watching!

Taking a Break + a england Tess D'Urbervilles

I hoped to post earlier, but at the moment I have a bad case of dyshidrotic eczema on most of my fingers. I can wear nail polish, but using nail polish remover hurts like hell and worsens the eczema. So I have to take a little break from polishing (and thus posting, bluh). Hope to be back soon of course! I have a lot of inspiration and beautiful nail polishes to show you. The last polish I wore was Tess D'Urbervilles, one of a england's Gothic Beauties. I love wearing black and this is black with something extra: beautiful emerald flecks. Absolutely amazing! Love the formula, too. This is two coats plus top coat.

The Gothic Beauties are available now on the a england website (£9.00 for 13 ml).

Thanks for watching! :h

Subtle Stamped Elaine

I'm wearing a new favourite, Elaine from a england. I love wearing dark purples and Elaine is just perfect. Nicely pigmented and easy to apply, I used two coats. I added some subtle stamping with Konad plate m83 and Color Club - Wild At Heart. I wasn't expecting it to be thís subtle, but I like it anyway. It looks amazing in sunlight! ♥

Thanks for watching and enjoy your weekend!

Glow In The Dark Nails with CH Nail #12

I've been wanting to try glow in the dark nail polish for ages, so I was really excited when I spotted a series of luminous nail polishes on BornPrettyStore.com. Today I'm showing you #12, a glowy pink. It's quite sheer and the formula is thick and gloopy, so I decided to layer it. This is two coats over a white creme polish, no top coat. I added striping tape and black dots to make the glow in the dark experience even more fun! The glow is clearly visible in the dark, but I have to say that my camera makes my nails look more glowy then they are in real life. Oh well.. I think it's fun! A downside of this polish is the drying time, it took hours to dry. 

BornPrettyStore.com kindly offers a 10% off code for my lovely readers! :) The code is B10X31.

Metallic V French

Order of the Garter is such a beautiful polish, I can't remove it just yet. But why not add something to it? For the v-shaped french tips I used China Glaze - Millennium. As you can see I also applied a layer of matte top coat. Doesn't Order of the Garter look even more stunning mattified?

a england - Order of the Garter

It seems like I'm in the mood for blue lately and this beautiful polish from a england satisfies my needs perfectly. ♥ Today I'm showing you the seventh and last shade from a england's The Legend collection. The name of this royal blue with lighter blue glass flecks is Order of the Garter. Man, I should wear glass flecked polishes more often, I totally forgot how pretty they are! The formula was nice, I applied three coats for full coverage. The second picture is the most colour accurate.

The Legend collection is available (with free worldwide shipping!) on the a england website.

a england - Princess Tears

I can totally see why this delicate polish is a england's gem of the month, it's a lovely shade for spring! Princess Tears is a lilac coloured polish with a strong lilac flash ánd an awesome and strong prismatic effect. At some angles it also flashes a subtle yellow-green, you can see a hint of it in my last picture. Princess Tears is kinda like Ascalon's lighter, lilac coloured sister! This polish has what we can call the typical a england formula: excellent. I used two coats, no top coat.

Princess Tears is part of The Legend collection. This fabled collection is available (with free worldwide shipping!) on the a england website.

a england - Bridal Veil

If there's one nail polish 'colour' I totally adore, it's black. I can wear it all year round without getting bored. My favourite black is Camelot from a england's The Mythicals collection. So imagine the joy when I received another black nail polish from this wonderful brand. This is Bridal Veil from The Legend collection. It's a very pigmented black with a subtle prismatic shimmer. Love it! It applied like butter, this is two coats.

I made a little comparison for you with two other black polishes with prismatic shimmer. Out of these three I prefer Bridal Veil, 'cause it's super black and super pigmented.

The Legend collection is available now on the a england website.
