Hello lovelies,

 

this is my only post for this weekend because guess what - I'll be spending whole Sunday at Olympia Beauty exhibition in London! I'll take some pictures for you but I won't be taking my big camera, so phone pictures will have to do. Back to today's nail art though...

 

I've combined three shades from the new Models Own Diamond Luxe collection (reviewed here) into kind of Art Deco looking design. You could have seen similar design from bloggers like The Nailasaurus or So Nailicious. I've used striping tape to create it and small brush to paint in the different parts.

The polishes I've used are Princess Pink, Oval Plum and Marquise Maroon. All available from Models Own website and their Bottle Shop in London.

 

I'm also wearing a beautiful midi ring by Astrid & Miyu in the pictures. It's called Gold Crystal Floating Heart Midi Ring and it is the perfect companion to my design! It has tiny sparkly crystals in it as well.

 

That's all from me today, have a lovely weekend everyone and stay tuned for next post on Monday!  Lucie x

Hello lovelies,

 

Ready for more Autumn colours? Well this is my take on Zoya Entice collection. The second half, Ignite will come soon. The Entice collection consists of 5 creme shade one slightly shimmery shade. They are a mixture of cool and warm shades and some of them will be great not only for Autumn but for Winter season too.

Nyssa - light brown creme. Nyssa is like a cross between milk chocolate and caramel. The formula was easy to apply but slightly less pigmented. I needed two thicker coats for good coverage. It dried fast and glossy.

Claire - dark burgundy creme. The colour is beautifully rich and smooth and I love the red undertone in it. The formula was good to apply, a bit streaky in the first coat but the second coat sorted everything out. It dried fast and glossy.

Margo - medium plum purple creme. It's a bit warmer than classic blue-based plum purple which makes it very appealing to me. It applied nicely and two coats provided full coverage. It also dried fast and glossy.

Veronica - red-based berry creme. I love this colour, so up my street! It's got great pigmentation so two thin coats were perfect. I didn't have any problems with application and it dried fast.

Geneviev - smoky grey creme with satin grey finish. I think Geneviev is kind of an ugly duckling of this collection. I wouldn't 'pick it out of a crowd' but it transforms into a very chic colour on nails. It dries very fast so I had to work fast to avoid patching. It's also slightly less pigmented so I needed two thick coats.

Ryan - navy blue creme. Another stunning shade I love! Ryan is rich, deep blue, absolutely perfect for those sailor summer designs. It applied very nicely and was also well pigmented. All I needed were two thin coats for full coverage.

Entice is a great collection full of colours perfect for the upcoming seasons. They all had pretty good formula - some a bit better than others. My absolute favourites must be Veronica and Ryan but the others are beautiful too.

 

This collection is available now directly from Zoya.com for $9 USD each, or $54 for the whole collection or at at The Nail & Beauty Link (UK) and at Nail Polish Direct (UK).

 

Stay tuned for the second half of the collection! Hope you've enjoy the swatches and have a lovely weekend. Lucie x
