For years now I've tried to keep my nails perfectly filed, impeccably chip free and above all fabulously polished! So one day I thought to myself...hang on a second?? After whiling away the hours absorbing all the latest nail trends from the likes of Scrangie, All Lacquered Up, Lacquerized and so many more, why don't I try writing my own blog? With my coloured skin and penchant for all polishes weird and wonderful, maybe I could hit a real niche here right? So with a bit of time on my hands, and polish on my nails (of course)...here it is! My first real blog! So enjoy and please don't be shy on suggestions, I am a newbie to this blogging thing after all!!!

I Can Paint a Rainbow...

A is for Apricot...

To start off, I have decided to display the peachy, corals of the polish world which aren't quite orange but cannot really be considered pink either! For this reason I have chosen to give them their very own colour category to really put them in the spotlight! Despite the fact that mine has almost completely faded, they really do sparkle against a glowing, golden tan so they are a must for the summer months! (Maybe not in England though...)

OPI On Air Perso-nail-ity



No Flash


With Flash

This vibrant coral has a beautifully subtle shimmer which is best exposed with the flash. Application is also flawless with OPI's impeccable formula.











Bourjois 16

Rimmel Rose Libertine

This one has slightly more of an orangey tint that doesn't really translate well in the photographs, also the angled brush makes the application slightly tricky. It is still a cute colour and it really does last the ten days as claimed!

This one definitely photos more pink than it appears in the flesh but is a nice alternative if you feel that the other two are a bit too intense. It is also a creme polish rather than a shimmer so is worth a try if you're after the block colour look.




Nails Inc Blenheim Terrace

No Flash


This one is certainly the palest of the bunch and actually looks more of a peach than a baby pink in real life. As with most Nails inc. polishes the application is really smooth and this polish has the tiniest, blink and you'll miss it amount of shimmer that you can just about see with the flash. A lovely colour.
