Strawberry fields... wheres the shimmer??








I had wanted Strawberry fields foreveeeer so was so chuffed to be gifted with it! Finally tried it out...now.. don't get me wrong its gorgeous and I AM A PINK-AHOLIC ...however all the gorgeous macro shots I have seen...well the shimmer doesn't translate as nicely in person... maybe I need to live in sunnier climates??

It is still no doubt pretty with secret shimmer... May layer some gold pure ice over it and see if that blows my socks off!!

Am having some serious chipping issues atm... don't know if its all the typing/writing ... but they are lucky to last 24 hours whereas normally I can go a week at a push!! boo

Anyhoo.. another post and run!!

Atlantis....
















The pics do the talking... choc full of holo glitter in a jelly base- pretty pigmented, this is 3 coats and a HUGE coat of seche...which I may say is thickening after a mere 10 days.. time to bust out the restore! hmm.. I got it off evilbay..wonder if somethings up with it...

Another newy from recent nail mail..wee it is soo glittery!! I think this one will be staying put for a while I haven't got the energy for wrestling glitter hehe

I was hoping to get my ring back today..had to get it resized.. this is worrying as I have about err 20lb to loose to be where I want for getting hitched..apparently it wont be back till the weekend..boohoo! Why they don't just stock small sizes I do not know lol
I love China glaze..pigmented and well... the built in hardener is a win.. I like my nails to feel rock hard!!

Have been drooling over the Nails inc coke collection... I see a lot of diet coke in my future..luckily that's 1 thing that is allowed on size 0 diet!!

Waiting on some mail atm..the volcano seems to have reared its ugly head again..fingers crossed this time it will stay away from the UK!!
brrr is so cold atm.. meant to be frost tonight...anyhoo I must stop tweeting and get going for 5mile run!

Chg Mango Madness...



Madness is right lol sooo glittery, gorgeous, this is two coats..love it...and nearly smooth sans topcoat, hurrah! After seeing swatches saying four coats and even five I thought the jelly base would be very sheer, but its fairly pigmented, doesn't need layering over anything.



Since you guys wanted to see my storage..here goes..


Top layer, new stuff + Nail art stuff

Middle - cotton wool, emergency cutex polish remover

Bottom- all used, majority of collection


That's pretty much it bar my Nails inc which I keep out on my vanity!..oh and topcoat/creams

So so shattered at the moment with work and university work..looking forward to some relaxing time once this assignment is done!!

Oo nearly forgot I am currently trying non-acetone remover..yes you heard me lol I do think there is a marked improvement in my nails..well they feel less dry, so shall see how it goes!!



Anyways TTFN xoxoxxo

Chg Flyin high...is back out of the naughty bin













This one made me so mad first time I tried it...yes..I threw it off into the sinbin..it was gloopy, hating me and well..add in SV.. it was a mess! it would not dry...eeeek!
This time I was determined, did 2 super thin coats..like brush barely coated..and it was nice to me LOL ..it can go back in the nice box now!... soon as I get my thinner in the mail...will thin it out, it so very thick indeed

The weather is so lovely here at the moment, 17 ..its a scorcher!! after three months of snowy winter this is like heaven!!

I got some more nailmail this morning.. Fairy dust(a gift) and Orly First Kiss... both very nice indeed! One is off to another home so not really mine lol


Time for a run and Australia's next top model!
