    Currently wearing W7 Metallic Saturn after liking it on MulberryPeony's posts.

    Covered in two coats and despite the honk i really like it.

    Also just bought two sets of Color Club polish from TKMaxx. £7.99 each set one 6 glitters and a clear, and one 6 pastel shades and a clear.

    Oh and i set of nail striper varnishes (also colour club)

    I'm still wating on about 7 deliveries; and still about 20 untrieds.

    I need more nails.

    I asked on Facebook & she ships to the UK!

    It's a shame some people have heard bad reviews about this site as they have some gorgeous stuff. Oh well, I can still drool over it.

    Well I fell in love with the Lynderella stuff over the past few days. but then I heard all the drama that has gone on recently and thought that I don't like things like that.

    So, I have decided I am going to our very only sallyella and make wonderful nail varnish creations. I have ordered all the stuff and will give it a go!

    Anyone wanna be a guinea pig?

    Oooooh. I'm always tempted to make my own polishes. Loooked at a few bloggers who have done it and its always cool.

    Only thing i love glitter and sparkles so much mine would probably end up looking like a box of Quality Street threw up on my nails.

    I wouldn't worry, I think these will end up like this with everything I have ordered, but I had it cheap so it shouldn't be so bad!

    On another note I haven't posted here for a couple of days because I have not been having the most fab of times, so here is an update of what I have done

    I had quite a successful time with water marbling, but doing it for someone else, not myself. My sdd was really chuffed bless her.

    I also tried the jelly glitter jelly thing you guys have been talking about alot

    I also purchased these two beauts from the lady who visits my work...

    Ph and I tried some more freehand nail art ( excuse how dark the picture is)

    I also tried some microbeading. But I hadn't cleaned my cuticles and used a different colour beads so I could see how they were going on, so excuse the fact they look a state. I liked it, but could see me trying to bite it off, so I took them off.

    I forgot this aswell

    It doesn't look half as special as it actually is. It is nubar that took my eye called lavendar shimmer. But when it came it was a very holographic sparkle in what I can only explain as beige jelly. I was close to sending it back, but the next morning in the light the sparkles were so bright I decided I would have a play.

    This is a picture of it over a pale gold colour and when the light catches it it looks spectacular. I have also tried it over black with a matte topcoat and it was stunning. The best purchase I have made in ages and I would urge any and all of you to buy them ( but leave one there for me) The only thing I can describe the black one as is stars twinkling in the night sky.

    Must admit I think Nubar is becoming a fave of mine. Although I was quite disappointed with the white polka dot one. But I will give that another go soon.
