Showing posts with label purple

Hello lovelies,

I'm back after a non-blogging weekend and Monday. I'm quite ill with some kind of flu so I wasn't feeling like posting anything but after three days I feel like I'm neglecting you. I'll show you this lovely Nails Inc. purple shade to make up for it :)

Buckingham Palace - red based half-jelly half-creme purple. I liked this purple as it flattered my nails and my skin tone. It applied very well despite the half-jelly formula. I expected some patches but that didn't happen. Also the pigmentation was good. I'm wearing two coats and the polish is fully opaque. I did not apply a topcoat just to show how glossy this polish is! Overall a very nice polish that has comparable formula to OPI.

Hello lovelies,

I should be posting a manicure with two A England Holy Grail versions but I think this is more important. I have here another purple mani I've done back in July that I want to post in support of the No H8 Day that was yesterday, 8th November 2012. I believe we should keep posting our manicures and No H8 logo to keep the awareness alive.

For this mash-up manicure I've used  A England Ginevere as a base colour. The black is A England Camelot and the bronze shade is Color Club Antiquated from the Foiled collection. I've done a little tutorial for the weave design I'm wearing in my ring finger so you can try it too!
