This week I have had navy on my mind and so I just had to nail (excuse the pun) my lemming!
I happened to stumble across this navy in Superdrug on the 2true stand. The name of the polish is "2true Fast Dry Colour Quick Nail Polish - Shade 10". I was a bit sceptical about the quality of a cheapie at £1.99 or 3 for £5.00 but it was my first time trying out this brand and for that price I couldn't complain! It just so happens that I absolutely love it! I am so impressed with the quality of the "new flat brush" which gave a great streak free and easy application! The polish is a very pigmented navy creme and is opaque in just one coat but as standard I always apply two. There is a good glossy shine without top coat. Unfortunately I cannot speak for the drying time as I just automatically paint each hand after the other without allowing for drying time (my bad). The only one thing I disliked was upon clean up where I applied the remover around the sides there would still remain a blue staining so I can only imagine on removal my nails will be well and truly smurfed! Overall I am super impressed and pleased I picked this brand and shade.
I also decided to add an accent finger for this manicure and applied 1 coat of Barry M Silver Foil followed by 2 coats of Milani Special FX Silver Chunky Hexagonal Glitter. I am looking forward to trying this out on all fingers as it reminds me of Minx and looks very bling!!! I am loving the navy and silver combination!

My First Post and it's a NOTD

Well this is my first official post and hopefully will be the first of many NOTD's.
Today I am wearing Essie Carry On from the Fall 2011 Collection. It is a deep plum purple creme. The formula is good and I used two coats to achieve complete opacity. The polish is vampy and perfect for fall! As much as the mani looked lovely on its own I decided to put some Color Club Covered In Diamonds of the ring fingers for something extra - not to mention the fact that I love the accent fingers trend ATM. I feel like the polish looks almost black on me and is perhaps a bit too dark but at this time of the year it is warming!
I used OPI Nail Envy as base and Seche Vite as Top Coat.
