For the Love of Nailpolish!

Usually I'm the kind of woman that always wears nail polish a lot. The crazier the colours, the better! I do love my nails super short because I do like to bite them if they get too long.
My favorite plain colours to wear are black, grey and navy blue, but I'm a sucker for opaque glitters in all any colour.

I thought I'd share some of my nail polish colours and designs I've had over the past few months 'cause nails should be painted to be seen!




This is Pret-a-polish in 'Twists and Turns' with BYS in 'Silver Moon' that I added extra glitter to. Pret-a-polish is excellent quality nail polish that dries fast and lasts ages but is a super hard to find in stores, I've only ever seen it on Brandsexculsive.com.au

 This is one of my favorites, Deborah Lippmann in 'Today was a Fairytale'. It's a pain to remove but I loved it too much not to wear on with a few layers, one super-thick layer or several thin will get this one near opaque.

 This one I got so many complements for! It's Face of Australia's Luxe range in 'Minty-Mojito' (I only bought it because I loved the name), with OPI 'silver shatter' over it. FOA's Luxe range is no longer available in stores, but I've seen online outlets that still stock it.

 I LOVED this look, it's OPI in 'Ski teal we drop' with Manicare gold glitter nail enamel strips over it to get the half-moon effect.

 And this is those same nail enamel strips but full nail. They were annoying to remove, but I loved the look so it was worth it!

This was multiple layers of Rimmel's I ♥ Lasting Finish in 'Disco Ball'. I was hoping to get near-opaque with this one but it just wouldn't get anywhere close to. This was 4 layers and it's still very see-through.
