Models Own: Slate Green

sSo to follow on from my previous post...I must report on the false toenails I tried out. They lasted a whole four hours in the end before I had to take them off! I could cope with the little ones, it was just the big toes that were unwearable as they were SO long for some reason. However, I would still use the again, but on an occasion that I would only be wearing sandals/flip flops (as they don't go very well with boots, as I found out!)

Anyway, I just wanted to post a quick NOTD from my recent haul. This was my favourite colour and I had to put it on as soon as I got it! I think it has probably become my no.1 polish and I had so many comments while I was wearing it too which is always nice!





It went on really nicely (this is my first time using Models Own) and this was with 2 coats. It stayed on really nicely too, which is always good.

But I regret that I am going to be taking it off tonight as I really want to try something new. I've been wanting to give it a go for a while but never got around to it....Leopard nails! Hmm...this could be fun, wish me luck! I'll let you know how I get on.

OH! And I just want to say hi to my 2 new followers, yay!

Stardust

First of all, here is the NOTD I've been meaning to post. It's a Rimmel 60 Seconds Polish number 530 - Stardust. It's a bronzy, metallic-y colour with slight shimmer/glitter in it. The glitter shows more in the bottle than it does when it's on the nails which I was quite disappointed about, but I might try compensating for this and using my own glitter in future. I also put a few little stickers on my thumb and little finger nails which had a bit of a glitter in them as they felt a bit plain.
This was with two coats but when I was adding a top coat I started to notice some dreaded air bubbles, grrr! Anyway I took this off after a few days because of the bubbles and also because my new polishes came, woohoo! When it came to taking it off, this polish did really not want to leave my nails and was a bit of a mission to remove.

So below is the line up of my most recent polish haul (L-R: PURE Persian Red, Models Own Red 'n' Black, Models Own Emerald City, Models Own Slate Green & Bourjois Black Green.)
