Christmas/New Year Haul

I have gotten my hands on a couple of new polishes and nail art items lately. This post is dedicated to those new darlings.  This time I have been to the 99 p store, Poundland, The Works and H&M. 

I have noticed that The Works sometimes has great rhinestone sets, as well as flocking powder. Great for nail art.  

From the 99 p store I picked up the Shatter collection from OPI.

Innsifree - 84

This post has been stuck in my Draft folder for far too long. I wrote the post, and had the pictures and every thing done, but forgotten completely to press "publish". So here it is, the last of my four Innisfree polishes.

This is one of four "Yoghurt" inspired nail polishes from the Innisfree line. Innisfree is a vegan polish, has a pleasant scent, nothing to overpowering. It comes in a milky base with glitters and have a lasting hold. Easy to use, the glitters glides on well. Only reason why I haven't used them since I bought them (almost a year ago), is because of the removal of glitters, it's just not worth it having to soak my nails in acetone and kill my already dry cuticles. So when I got my PVA glue and started using that as a base for glitters, well, needless say, I felt the urge of using these gorgeous polishes ago.

Innisfree - 84.
Milky blue base with blue and pink hex glitters.
I also added a couple larger blue hex glitters to this manicure to create more depth in the polish and make it stand out more.

To finish it all off, I added a butterfly to each nail. The fimo butterflies came from a set I bought at the 99 p store here in UK.

China Glaze - Jolly Holly with snowflake

I have been gone from this blog far to long now, but it seems like I am getting my life back on track now, and I'm just a week away from getting my own flat.

It's going to be great. Best thing is, I can get back in a nail art routine, and have a nail station again. 

For now, I am keeping my nails short, to make it easier with the packing. 

At Poundland I found this great little Christmas set from Allura. It had two types of snowflakes, a Christmas tree and a Christmas stocking.  I decided to use one of the snowflakes for my Christmas manicure.

Two coats of China Glaze - Jolly Holly, and a snowflake accent.

Hope King Winter has treated you all nicely. It's good to be back.
