Smitten Polish Nimbus Take Two

The last time I showed you Smitten Polish Nimbus there was no sun in gloomy England but when I put it on today in preparation for work there were remnants of sunlight so I snapped these two quick pictures to show you the glory of this polish.

I've been very busy starting my new job, celebrating my birthday and moving all my stuff into London but the blog will be starting to pick up again now :).

Isn't it gorgeous, the scattered linear holo lifts the grey polish. I'm very excited about getting back to blogging, doing a little bit of makeup and lifestyle mixed in with my nails. Next up, what made it into my handbag?

Smitten Polish Nimbus

When I first saw this Smitten Polish collection this one really stood out to me, a dove grey holographic polish. I love light holographic polishes just as much as I love the dark ones where the holo stands out. This polish just seems to have another dimension to it when it catches the light, it is perfect.

I live in England and the days are very dull at the moment so this was the best picture I could get to show off some of the holo sparkle of this polish

This is two coats and you can still see a little nail line but it doesn't bother me too much.

Tomorrow I'll show you the nail art I did with this polish using another of my new untrieds.

17 Suede and Smitten Klaatu Swatch

I have been away for a while but I'm back with a bang with two stunning polishes. Smitten Polish Klaatu Barada Nikto (KBN from now on) is a gorgeous blue jelly polish with blue and holographic glitter running through it. 17 Suede is a limited edition polish which is a charcoal grey matte finish polish. I am showing you two coats of each, with top coat on KBN but not on Suede.

I love how these look and I love the contrast of matte and high shine, plus this is the perfect base for me to do some nail art on next week :).

Tomorrow I'm going off on a makeup tangent with some new goodies from Boots. Remember if you like the 17 polish you need to go get it asap because it is limited edition and if you fancy KBN you can get it from Rainbow Connection in the UK and from Smitten Polish elsewhere.

Ethereal Lacquer Callisto with Stamping

I am in love with this design. I got hold of Ethereal Lacquer Callisto yesterday and immediately put it on. I have some swatch photos for you below as well as this nail art. Sadly I had to cut my nails down for a job interview but I am planning to grown them back out to my round shape.

So here is Callisto, it's a grey holographic polish with bright blue glitter in it. Due to the rubbish british weather I haven't really been able to show you how holographic this is but you can see some of it in the first photo whereas the second showcases the gorgeous grey with blue glitter that shows through when it's not being ridiculously holographic. This is two easy coats with topcoat. I purchased this from Rainbow Connection in the UK.

I stamped over it with this stamp fromt he new bundle monster collection. I think it looks like arrowheads but there is also a hint of fish skeleton there as well...

The glitter on my index and little fingers is Pocket Money Polish Sparks Fly, my custom which i love and goes perfectly with this grey base.

I love this nail art more than anything I've done for a little while and i'm not looking forward to taking it off for Monday's 33 day challenge prompt which is Chinese (I'm thinking dragons).
