Today I'm taking a look at the Fab ur Nails Jumbo Stamper which I received from Rainbow Connection, and squaring it up against a Born Pretty Store plate. Read on to find out if it beats the Creative Shop stamper for number one spot in my heart!

Barry M Glitter Gelly Swatches

Press Sample 

It's been a while! Nail breakages etc, I won't go into it. I'm back today with swatches of the new Glitter Gelly shades from Barry M, which see a glittery twist on the ever-popular Gelly range. I feel like I've been waiting for this for ages.

Lilypad Lacquer Swatches

Press Sample 

Lilypad Lacquer is a brand I've seen popping up on blogs for quite a while now but never had the chance to try myself (there's so many indies I still haven't tried, I'm getting through them slowly but surely!) they have quite the fan base it seems so I'm excited to finally try some out. I have 4 shades from various collections to show you today.

18 Halloween Nail Art Ideas

As I haven't had a lot of time for individual Halloween nail art looks this year, I've decided to pool all my ideas together on a colour wheel, which actually works out quite well because you get to see 18 ideas all at once! Read on to see the colours I used plus a brief how-to on each design.

Paint The Rainbow - The UK's First Indie Nail Polish Box

If you're a nail polish fanatic, you'll no doubt have heard of all-indie polish boxes such as A Box, Indied (US) and What's Indie Box (AUS) which are monthly boxes filled with exclusive indie polishes from a number of different makers. Well, now the UK has it's very own box called Paint The Rainbow, from the people behind Rainbow Connection, and I have the September box to show you today.

Last month I showed you the September Cirque Metropolis colours, and today I've got the October shades to share with you. They've taken a dark and vampy turn for October and couldn't be more suited to the month.

Autumn Polish Favourites

It's time for another round of my seasonal polish favourites, and this time I've rounded up my must-haves for Autumn. As usual I've narrowed it down to six, and it's been the hardest set to choose so far, I kept changing my mind and having to paint a new colour wheel! The list is in no particular order, although for one particular shade I just can't hide my favouritism.

a england To Emily Bronte Swatches

Press Sample 

One of my favourite brands, a england, has just released a brand new collection inspired by Emily Brontë, author of that novel which you'll have certainly heard of, Wuthering Heights. I have read the book (many years ago) but Wuthering Heights to me just brings out a chorus of the Kate Bush song...which I sang pretty much non stop while swatching this collection, so imagine that if you will.

piCture pOlish Eerie + Thumbs Up Nail Wraps

Press Sample 

Quick nail art post today featuring a beautiful piCture pOlish shade by my friend Emily of Very Emily and some Thumbs Up nail wraps. Not very seasonal maybe, but I couldn't resist the combination and sometimes you need a pastel fix, even in mid Autumn.
