Never Have I Ever…

… used EIGHT COATS to get a polish to look opaque on my nails!!
This is one of my new polishes from Martian Delights and it took at least 8 coats. Oh, and you can still see nail line 🙁
It’s a shame cuz it’s a really nice colour too. Hopefully it will thicken up, maybe in a year or two, haha.

Beauty UK or Beauty No-K?

I have a few Beauty UK polishes. They are only cheap – but some if the colours are nice – so they chip easily and are not amazing.

Since I am running out of my beloved NYC Top Coat, I need a new one that’s not too expensive since I only ever wear it for a day and get through it really fast.

So, I bought Beauty UK’s ‘2 in 1 Top Coat’ which is fine as a base coat but rubbish as a top coat.

Last night, I finished my nails, with top coat, at least 30 minutes before bed but when I woke up, they were all scratched and dented. Since then, I’ve painted on the blue and added a coat of NYC.

You can see on the thumb where the polish has basically ‘stretched’ because the top coat didn’t do its job and dry the polish underneath 🙁

So, basically, don’t buy Beauty UK top coats 😀

I had a bit of an accident with this one. Right after I’d finished, I managed to spill acetone all over my hand but I didn’t have time to do it all again so I just tried to shake it off – so that’s why it’s a bit smudgy. Haha.

Sorry I haven’t posted for so long. I’ve been visiting home and I didn’t take my computer or camera.

And I have to show you this. My laugh of the day came from a friend who showed me this video.

What a jerk. He totally deserved that right?!
