GUEST POST Dotty Mani by BGPolish

Hey there you lot! I'm new around here.. My name is Catriona from BGPolish and I am doing a guest post for the lovely Jade! I thought about a lot of different things I could do for you today, but I finally came up with something! Gold and Silver Bubbles!

In this look I began with painting my nails in Barry M Silver Foil and then I painted two large lines on either side of the nail coming downwards and two shorter lines in the middle with Barry M Gold Foil. After this I took Silver with a large dotting tool and dotted over the gold, and a small to dot gold on the silver.

I topped this with Seche Vite, and I really hope you like it, I also hope you can understand my ramblings. If you liked this design please pop over to my blog and have a look around, and thank you so much to Jade for putting up with me and letting me guest post! - Always.


Thanks so much for posting for me Catriona and I love your metallic mani!! 

Technicolor Yawn by Laquerdaisical

Today I have a funky indie polish on my nails, we are talking SUPER funky.

This is like someone from the 80s puked on my nails.... in a good way :)

Laquerdasical is a UK based indie brand which I have had the pleasure of working with Alexia a few times and she even listens to me rambling on about polish dreams whilst she strives to make them come true and I'm sure Alexia won't mind me dropping a little hint that there is something very lovely coming up soon!

Anyway back to the polish! Technicolour yawn is a micro glitter polish.

3 coats in the pictures with one coat of topcoat.

 Bottle shot ^^

This polish does cover without undies but as you can see it can be hard to get the glitter in all the right places. The nail line is not as visible as this in real life.

This polish is just so fun! I think it would also look great layered over a range of different colours. 

So what do you think of this? Are you a fan of glitter polishes? 

Technicolour Yawn is available from Laquerdaisical facebook page and their new website!

This polish was sent to me for my honest review. Please see my disclosure page for more details.

Moyra Polish Review

Today I have a review of a brand called Moyra. They are new to the UK and stock a MASSIVE range of polish, nail tech items and nail art. 

I was sent three polishes to review and I have two to show you today, shade no 87 and no 304.

I decided to do this as a piece of nail art. When I saw the Metal Effect shade 304 I instantly thought STAMPING! 

So this is shade 87 on its own....

Oh how I love purple and this polish is no exception!

 The brush is a brilliant shape, not thin like Revlon but not as wide as Essie. You all know how I LOVE a good brush! 

I also like the longer handle on these bottles too. BUT I have to say I am not crazy about the way the bottles look.

The formula was great too, two coats in these pics. 

**The "rim" look on the ring finger is caused by my topcoat, not the polish**

Then I added some stamping using no 304.....

LOOK AT IT! Oh my! 

This stamps even better than my actual silver stamping polish! I am so happy with how this looks!

If you are looking for a silver stamping polish I would recommend this for sure.

Moyra polishes (so far) get a massive tick in my book! AND would you believe they are a budget polish? 

These are selling for £3 each at the mo.

They are available to buy from FACEBOOK and a website is on the horizon.

Have you tried Moyra yet?

Incoco Nail Polish Strips Review

This is the beautiful package that came last week!

These are nail polish applique strips. In simple turns they are strips of REAL nail polish. Instead of the standard nail wrap which are usually made out of plastic this is made out of polish. Base, colour and topcoat all in one!

They are from an American company called Incoco, they have just turned on international shipping so they are now available in the UK YAY!

They come in full nail,tip and pedicure strips.They come in a very wide range of designs. 

What I can straight up is that I love that they have a massive range. They have plain colours and designs. Whats more they are all 3 free.

For this review I tried the Neon Yellow ones. I really love this design and I wouldn't be able to do this by hand.

In the package you get 16 strips. Upon opening you can smell that they kind of smell like musty old nail polish LOL but this fades are they go on etc. 

You also get detailed instructions on how to apply.

Incoco make a big deal on the package and on the instructions about keeping them sealed until you use them as the air dries them out. So I used what I needed too and then resealed the pack with sellotape :)

To apply you simply remove the top plastic coat of the individual nail you have selected. the remove the bottom silver part as both ends are shaped slightly differently. Select which end fits your nail best. Peel off then apply. 

It was a bit fiddly to begin with and I did mess up on the index finger. 

But look at how good they look!! 

Yes I messed up but for a first go I am really happy and you cant really notice it in real life.

They are very thin and not like conventional wraps really as i cant feel them lifting up at the free edge. 

They claim to last up to 14 days..... 

I will keep you all updated on how they last. I really dont expect to get 14 days as real nail polish only lasts about 2 days on me. 

You can buy these HERE and check out their Facebook for the latest news.

BarryM Gelly Guava Bubbles

 This is a BarryM Gelly in Guava. A new addition to the Gelly family.

Unfortunately I the photograph doesn't show the colour as i had hoped. 

Its a bit more turquoise in real life. 

I was really disappointed with the consistency of this product. It was quite thick and hard to apply. But the colour is truly beautiful! I am not a fan of a thick polish, it reminds me of a cheap polish. 

Its actually put me off using this polish again which is sad as its so beautiful.

The bubbles are done using OPI If You Moust You Moust and Barry M Nail Art Pen in White.

Jaye Bird By InVogue

 I received this lovely polish from Nick at ohbeauty.co.uk.

This is Jaye Bird from Invogue Feathers.

It features strands of blue and white glitter. The polish has a high density of glitter so its easy to position and get a full coverage. I did use four coats though, just to get the placement right.

It can be used on it own or over another polish. 

I wouldn't have called it feather effect, i would have called it Sprinkles! As to me it looks like cake sprinkles!

Pictured here alone with one coat of Poshe topcoat.

This polish is really pretty and completely different to the other polishes I have seen, as a lot of glitter polishes don't have this type of coverage.

This polish, along with the whole InVogue range, is available HERE for £4.49 with FREE UK postage :)

 Reminds me of streamer or sprinkles on cakes. It also reminds me of the Queens Jubilee?! Very royal colours!
