Models Own Raspberry Crush


Raspberry Crush is the nail polish I got free in this weeks More! magazine, which I talked about in my Magazine Freebies post. Now I absolutely love Models Own polishes, but this is one that I had never really noticed and definitely wouldn't have chosen myself.

It's a difficult colour to describe, I guess it's mostly pink, a clue is in the name Raspberry, but it in some lights it looks red, and even slightly orange. It's definitely different!

It's very opaque, and went on the nail nicely. I would think you'd only need one coat, but as I'm an impatient fidget, I wound up smudging a few nails and applying a second coat.

You can get Raspberry Crush for £5 from Models Own or just buy More! for £1.50, while it's still on sale.

What do you think of this colour, will you be picking it up? Leave any comments or questions below or chat to me on twitter

NOTD - Bright nails for the dark skies

Who says you have to have dark reds and purples on your nails just because it's autumn?
I've never been one to stick to the 'rules' - I'm all for brightening up the current horrible British weather! 

Rimmel 60 Seconds Nail Polish - Sky High*
NYC Expert Last Nail Polish - Lights Camera Glitter
The beautiful Rimmel Blue was actually one of my prizes from the lovely Nicola and the NYC glitter is a new fave that I just picked up from Superdrug!

Are you sticking with Autumn nail trends or breaking tradition? Show me your NOTD posts!

Essie Wishlist

I think everyone knows by now that I'm obsessed with nail polish and Essie are a new favourite! The brand was a bit of an acquired taste, at first I wasn't in love with the consistency and they have too many sheers for my liking - but the range of colours are fantastic. So here is a collection of the colours that I really want!

Sand Tropez, Topless & Barefoot, Absolutely Shore,
Turquoise & Caicos, Where's My Chauffer?, Nothing Else Metals,
Nice is Nice, Bahama Mama, Recessionista, Watermelon,
Cute As A Button, Tart Deco, French Affair, Lilacism
Let me know if you've got any of these colours, of if there's an amazing one that I've missed!

Models Own Haul

Models Own is one of my absolute favourite nail polish brands, so when they announced they were having a 50% off summer sale, I just jumped at the chance to get some of the gorgeous shades I've been wanting!


I was absolutely spoilt for choice over which to use first! I went for Pink Punch and Ibiza Mix on my nails (you can see how that looks here) and I put Indian Ocean over Essie's Navigate Her on my toes which looks so cute but I don't want to take pictures of my feet.

I've also tried out Disco Mix over Essie's Tour De Finance since I bought these and I think it the glitter looks awesome over hot pink!

I hope you like my haul, if you have any of these shades or want to know my opinion on them, just leave a comment below or chat to me on twitter

Lust Have! Ciaté Advent Calender

Ciaté have brought out a nail polish advent calender... could there be anything more perfect?!

They're calling it 'Mini Mani Month' and it's exclusive to Selfridges, costing £38. It just seems too good to be true, all that for just under £40... and I'm so close to cracking my self-imposed budget and giving in.

There are 17 of Ciaté's best selling mini paint pots, 4 mini Cavier blends and 3 exclusive glitter shades!
I'd put this on my Christmas list but I know it will sell out by then - argh the temptation!

Let me know if you love this idea from Ciaté as much as I do and if you're going to buy it.
