Transition Into Autumn // Nails

Yay nail polish yay! I love Autumnal shades so following on from this post I'm here to show the nail polishes I'm going to be wearing throughout the next couple of months.

Nails Inc Nail Polish Diary

Hi, my name is Kiran and I'm a nail polish-aholic and recently I've added 12 new Nails Inc polishes to my collection...

Summer Nail Polish Picks

I thought I would go ahead and do a Summer nail polish pick as I did one for Spring. We've been having what we Britons like to call a heatwave here in the UK, well, it has been hot, and hardly anyone in the UK has AC as we're just not used to this kind of weather! Anyway, here are my picks!

Pink Glitter Polishes

I love pink. I love glitter. I love nail polish. So pink, glitter nail polishes are right up my street, here are three in my humble collection of polishes.

Spring Nail Polish Picks

Topshop Air Kisses - Essie Ballet Slippers - Collection Mint Mojo - Ciate Strawberry Milkshake - Topshop Bees Knees - Essie A Crewed Interest - Barry M Berry Ice Cream

The sun was finally shining today, and I changed my bed covers to my favourite floral ones so I thought I would pick out my Spring nail polish picks. Look at all the Springy cuteness :3 

Unsurprisingly all the colours are soft, pastels but I think they're so pretty and I know I'm going to wear all of these a lot this Spring, if only to brighten up my mood if the sun itself is not shining...

Hope you're having a good day.

Holographic Nails - Topshop Winter Frost

I have found another gem of a nail polish, this time it's Topshop's Winter Frost, a silver holographic. It is absolutely gorgeous. It's one of those nail polishes where you just can't stop staring at your nails and before you know it your work shift has ended, oh yes. Cue a thousand photos of my nails:

Gettin' Miss Piggy With It

Sometimes you just fancy tacky, red, glitter nails. But is it so tacky when it's OPI? It's not, right? ... Right?
Oh well, either way I love this polish. it consists of red glitter particles and then large chunks of silver and red glitter. I, like a fool, did not put a base colour on which would have been the best option, so what you see is five coats of this. Yes, five. But glitter dries basically instantly, so it's okay...she tries to justify.

This lovely polish is from the Muppets for OPI Collection which was released for the Holiday Collection back in 2011.

Hope everyone is doing well!

Favourite Nail Polishes

I have quite a nice collection of nail polishes, but if I absolutely had to choose my favourites then the following would be the pick of the bunch.

OPI - Golden Eye and Teenage Dream 

Chanel - Peridot

LA Colours - Wired and Hot Blooded

Essie: To Buy Or Not To Buy, Muchi Muchi and Ballet Slippers

Barry M - Grey and Blueberry Ice Cream

Of course there are more polishes that I adore, but if I could only take a limited amount with me to a desert island these would be the lucky ones. 

Hope everyone is having a lovely day!

Bond Nails

You know when you paint your nails and you just can't stop looking down and staring at them? Yup, well that's how it is for me and my nails right now. I recently got my hands on Golden Eye and The Living Daylights from the James Bond collection for OPI and I knew from one look at the bottles that I was going to love them, and I do.

Golden Eye is just the most stunning gold, glittery colour ever! I have two coats on and oh my gosh, I just find it so stunning. It's one of the best gold polishes I have ever seen, kudos to you, OPI. The Living Daylights is also an absolutely gorgeous glitter polish, it consists of large chunks of green, silver and copper glitter and it looks beautiful combined with Golden Eye and I know it will look beautiful with other colours.

Before I apply nail polish, I always put on a base coat, and the one I am using at the moment is my mini Nail Envy by OPI. For my cuticles, I use a mineral oil by Ever Since, I really like this oil and not just because it smells like almonds...

Okay so that is all for today and my ramblings on about gold and glittery nails (which I will most probably wear on New Years Eve!). I hope everyone is having a good weekend!

Manicure Monday: Red Royalty

My dear friend Marta gave me Dior's polish in Red Royalty, it's such a beautiful colour! I'm only wearing one coat, yes one coat. The lighting (bathroom lighting, heh) makes the red look lighter than what the colour actually is which is a shame, but it's a deep red, so pretty. I don't usually like red nail polish on me, but blood reds and royal reds I like. On the accent nail, I put on a coat of OPI's Gettin' Miss Jiggy With It (God, I love that name) and this polish is from the Muppets Collection.

Have a good week!
