Showing posts with label creme

Hello lovelies,

 

I'm trying to make the most of the flowers in my garden so there will be more poppies today! Admittedly, this is a bit posher poppy than the wild red ones I've shown you earlier but it's also very beautiful.

 

I've paired the poppy with beautiful Jacava London polish Black Forest Gâteau that I won in one of their competitions.

 

Black Forest Gâteau - rich, red-based purple creme. I've always loved shades like these and even better if they have great formula. Black Forest Gâteau applied very easily and two coats provided full coverage. It also dried fast and glossy. I've applied topcoat as well.

I thought that the poppy colour complemented the polish nicely so I hope you like flowers as my props ;) I really enjoyed wearing this polish and I will definitely put it on again during A/W season!

 

Jacava London polishes are available at their website, on Amazon and at Feelunique.com

Hello lovelies,

 

Hope you're all enjoying the weekend, it's unusually hot & sunny down here in England! Since it's almost summer I thought I would show you this awesomely crazy polish I bought! I'm talking about SpaRitual Firefly! Firefly is part of the Explore collection for spring 2014 and I have shown you one polish from this collection before, remember?

 

Firefly - bright, highlighter yellow neon creme. Nuf' said!

No, not really :D I've applied two coats of Firefly over white base because by itself it's quite sheer and would never be so bright. The formula is very watery and runny and buildable but once you know about it it's manageable. It's a great colour despite the tricky formula so I would still be happy to recommend it.

 

Let's get ready for summer with SpaRitual Firefly!

Of course the colour is much brighter than in the photos, you know how cameras hate neons, right?

I've had some poppies wildly growing in my garden so it was time for a nail photo shoot! I love how the bright red of poppies contrasts with the neon yellow, such a cool combination! Hope you like it too ;)
