Getting Fed Up Yet? Three Wave Skittle Manicure.

 

Three wave manicures are just that easy! Sorry they've appeared a lot recently on the blog but there's no real brains required behind this nail art design. The only thing you need is three nice colours. Yet there is a difference in today's version of the three wave manicure as there may be some accent nails which contain dots, follow me if you'd like to see some more... 

An Autumn Release: Barry M's Cardamom.

The realisation has just hit that this is an autumn release polish yet the backdrop of these photographs relate a lot more to spring - oops! Anyway we are gathered here to talk about nail polish so let's get on to Cardamom by Barry M. This cute little polish has just been recently released as part of an autumn collection and it definitely fits the bill, it's a darker green with hints of grey running through it. Despite the fact it's not quite autumn where I am, this polish has already been worn a few times. Here's some more photographs:

Summer Throwback: Papaya by Barry M.

Technically you can call this a throwback as this colour wasn't worn in summer as it was purchased in September, yet it's been loved at the moment despite the fact it's a total summer colour. Maybe it's just because we're all wishing for summer to return? Definitely true in this case... Anyway onto yet more lovely polishes close ups:

Addicted To Nails... Update and Reassurance!

Hello!

Today's post is both a happy and a sad post for me and probably for you guys, it's an update on when little nail polish shaped posts are coming out of Addicted To Nails... as it'll be changing from the current schedule in the next few days.

Top Picks from... The Poundshops!

It seems that this little nail polish blog is forever going on about the bargain polishes which can be found in the Poundshops (Poundland, Poundworld, 99p Stores etc.) and raving about how brilliant they are. Yet never really picking out polishes that are favourites in their own right, instead blaming it all on the price and where it's from. So today's going to be some picks of brilliant polishes which have by coincidence come from these shops...

Simple Nail Art - Three Waves!

Nail art is making an appearance! Despite it being relatively simple, it's still a current favourite. It's been heavily featured lately on instagram (found here and here) as it's easy peasy and has a fabulous effect. Only ingredients you guys need is three polishes which have a curved edge (this makes it effortless, but if you only have flat edges you'll need an additional dotting tool) that are opaque on top of each other. Then all you need to do is copy the design below, there's no brains required. If you're interested take a further look: 

Starting to See Autumn: Rollarcoaster by Essence.

The polishes are starting to turn from summer to autumn, Rollarcoaster by Essence seems to be the first of a few darker shades of polish. It's a lovely dark green colour with no shimmer running through it (Some other Essence polishes are guilty of this.) or polish effects. Just plain and simple green which may be why it's so popular! Here's some more photographs to prove it...

Lovely Muted Pastel: Elderberry by Barry M.

Despite the fact that the new ever so lovely autumn polishes have just been released by Barry M, today's post is a feature of one of the spring/summer release polishes. Elderberry has been purchased recently as there's been a hankering for pastel, supposedly because they are much calmer colours. It was a love at application polish, it appears so subtle and pretty. Here's some more photographs to prove it:
