Blue and Glittery Star Nails

I finally managed to get my hands on Models Own Southern Lights and Northern Lights, the two beautiful glitters from their winter Wonderland collection.

They are simply breath taking.
Opaque glitter in two coats and full of holographic shimmer. Stunning.

I was desperate to use them so I create a blue mani using Nails Inc bluebell colour and then Models Own Southern Lights on my thumb and ring finger. Then on the plain nails I stamped with Mash 49 plate using Konad special polish in white.

Colour Club Holo

The Colour Club Halo Hues collection has been knocking around the blogosphere for a while now and a few weeks ago I got my hands on the silver one named Harp On It.

It's the perfect holo nail polish. Two coats to perfection.

In the below picture I used two coats and then stamped using Konad's black special polish and Bundle Monster plate BM-317 on most nails and BM-311 on the ring finger. Finishing it all with a coat of Models Own top coat.

Green Sparkly Nails

Christmas is coming, which always leaves me with the need to have green or red sparkly nails.

Today I went for green.

I used two coats of Cult Nails Feelin' Froggy with one coat of Alter Ego to add a bit more shimmer then two coats of Models Own Dancing Queen glitter from their Mirrorball collection.

Winter Wonderland - Layering nail varnish

As part of my mini Models Own haul earlier this week I got Indian Ocean. I found it a bit sheer on its own so decided to layer it over Cult Nails Charming. What a beautiful combination. A lilacy, blue, shimmery ocean of loveliness!

Obviously I couldn't resist using glitter so i used another one of my new polishes, Snowflakes. A gorgeous holo flakie.

I love the final result. A perfect winter wonderland.

Models Own - Boogie Nights

Asos recently got the Models Own Mirrorball collection. And in true magpie fashion I had to have some of the beautiful shiny glitters! I got two from the collection and today I have boogie nights to show you.

The glitter is mainly pink based with blue and holo flecks in. All the glitter is hand cut meaning they are wonderfully random.

It's not the easiest polish to work with, like most glitter suspended in clear base you have to arrange the glitter to get an even spread and I found it took a while to dry due to the thickness when trying to get good glitter distribution.

I used three coats of Boogie Nights over one coat of Cult Nails Charming and sealed with one coat of OPI top coat.
