Gold glittery tips - Nails of the Day

Follow my blog with Bloglovin
I'm not sure what I think about this nail trend yet. I've seen it in many pictures on Tumblr and other websites and decided to recreate. I would definitely redo this with a more lighter colour as a base,let's say a peachy pink or even white. Tell me what you think. Your comments would be much appreciated :)
I've used two coats of Nails Inc- Jermyn Street,one of Models Own- Gold Finger and a basic transparent top coat.

 The main idea behind 'gold tips' is that you have to be a bit messy with glitter. It does not take a lot of artistry or creativity to do. So go ahead and give it a go!

My Top Nail Polish Picks for Spring

I don't usually divide nail polish colours for particular seasons. I always choose the colour I'm in the mood for. However, in this blog post I thought it would be nice to show you some nail polishes from my collection that I think are most suitable for the up coming warm weather outside.

    Here it is, my selection :)
Basically, my choices consist of different shades of pinks and nudes, because I do not own any mint greens, sky blues or lavender colours. Definitely, need to include some variety of colour this spring!

My Barry M choices: I've selected a bright coral (296 Coral)and two pastel shades: a light pink(119 Baby Pink) and a light peach(318 Peach Melba), which seems to be everyone's favourite.

My OPI choices: Sweet Heart (my most viewed post http://focusonthequiet.blogspot.com/2011/04/opi-sweet-heart-nail-polish.html) and San Tan-Tonio from the Texas Collection.

And the last one is a mattifying top coat from Rimmel.

Don't be afraid, experiment with colour, because spring is soon here to cheer us up with its warmth and beauty!

Nails Inc. in Piccadilly Circus

Cannot rave enough about these Nails Inc. varnishes and particularly this colour-Piccadilly Circus. On their website Nails Inc. describe it as a deep cerise pink shade; however I would say it looks a lot more raspberry-ish than cerise. Oh well, who cares as long as it's so beautiful :)

As for dupes, I find that Rimmel's Cranberry Zest looks quite similar.

I got the Nails Inc. varnish free with a Glamour magazine issue, but it actually retails for £11 on their website. If you don't have the budget, definitely go for the Rimmel version for £2.99, plus it has a fruity scent to it :)
