Hello lovelies,

I'm kick-starting the piCture pOlish Mondays with polishes I've received for this year's Blog Fest participation. I wasn't really sent them for review but they are pretty so i do want to review them. The first up is Bomb Shell.

Bomb Shell - a vibrant blue shimmer. I'm loving this blue shade as it's a total stand out! The formula was very good with excellent pigmentation and easy application. Two coats provided a full coverage and a layer of topcoat added an extra shine. The polish is slightly streaky due to the shimmer finish but nothing terrible. I've paired the Bomb Shell with black and white zebra background as it creates beautiful contrast.

piCture pOlish Monday is back! piCture pOlish Bomb Shell - Review & swatches

What do you think? I love the zebra background and the blue together!

piCture pOlish is available at their website or at many international e-shops.

Have a lovely day!

Hello lovelies,

I'm a bit late with this report but I still think you might enjoy the pictures. So the Cosmopolitan Blog Awards were held in OXO Tower in London on Wednesday night on 2nd October. I went together with Sammy (The Nailasaurus), Allie (Brit Nails), Alice (One Nail To Rule Them All) and Amelia from xameliax who is a beauty blogger and vlogger :)

Please excuse the picture quality, I've had only phone with me. But there will be some pictures from girls as well.

The OXO Tower has a beautiful view of St. Paul's Cathedral and the River Thames...

Cosmopolitan Blog Awards picture report!

The first things that welcomed us when we came in were champagne and a big Cosmopolitan wall for taking pictures....

There were beauty stations where you could sit down and have your hair, nails and eyelashes done which I thought was pretty awesome. I ended up having done a messy fishtail braid as I came with just a simple three-strand braid.

Next big feature was a bar! There were plenty of cocktails, all done with Pinky vodka....

There were the cutest little cupcakes...

Later in the night the winners were announced and I was very happy that at least one nail blog went home as a winner - Alice from One Nail To Rule Them All won the Best New Beauty Blog category!

There were some obligatory group pics and selfies ;)

The best fun I think was a photo booth (Photo Booth Mania) where we pulled of some crazy faces :D

And of course we needed to do nail pics as well!

Also each one of us went home with a massive and very heavy goodie bag....and we were the very last ones to leave :D

But the night didn't end there. We were starving so we went out in search of something to eat. Unfortunately everything seemed to be closed so we ended up in MacDonald's near Trafalgar square which is like a mile away so my feet were killing me!

But overall it was a great evening and it was so great to meet the best nail bloggers in UK. And Amelia, WOW! She's such a gorgeous girl!

So that's it, that's my summary of the night :) I hope you've enjoyed it and don't forget to check out blogs of girls if you haven't already.
