February's Meebox Review - Gatsby Theme*

I was lucky enough to be sent February's Meebox for review and was really excited to get stuck into it to try all of the goodies. This month the theme was Gatsby and I don't think the Meebox team could have picked more appropriate items, they are perfect!

Semilac UV Gel Polish Review*

I was recently sent a Semilac UV Gel polish for review and as I'm a huge fan of doing my own gels at home, I couldn't wait to give it a try.

Danglefoot Polish Rumple & Belle Duo

Danglefoot Nail polish is one of my favourite indie polish brands, so I was really excited when Hayley re-opened her shop this month! Not only was she back with loads of new pretties but she was also back with another Once Upon A Time Duo, so of course I had to have it!

Maggie Anne Nail Polish Review*

I was recently sent two polishes to review from a new to me brand, Maggie Anne. I love trying new brands so couldn't wait to use them and I wasn't disappointed at all.

Princess Nail Lacquer - Festive Sparkle Trio

As I mentioned last month, I am going to be buying from at least one UK indie polish maker each month and blogging about it, and this month it is the turn of Princess Nail Lacquer. I picked a very seasonal appropriate set so if you love sparkles then keep reading!

Pretty Perfect Polish Review

I recently decided to start buying polishes from at least one UK indie polish maker each month in an effort to support the lovely community we have, so I kicked this month off with a lovely little haul from Pretty Perfect Polish.



Models Own Holochrome Swirl Nail Art - Collaboration with Hellznails

Me and the lovely Helen over at Hellznails were lucky enough to win the Models Own Holochrome giveaway over on Instagram last week so we thought doing a blog collaboration and some twin nails would be the best way to celebrate!

Essence Mini Haul & Review

I have been wanting to try some more Essence makeup for a while so I popped into my local Wilkos to pick up a few bits up to try. I set myself a budget of £10.00 and I'm really pleased with what I managed to get for my money.

Guest Post: Helen from Hellznails

Hi everyone! I'm Helen from Hellznails and I'm guest posting today for my lovely friend Sam whilst she is on her honeymoon. Sam is a really good friend of mine and as a huge fan of her blog and nails I'm honoured she asked me to do this.

For my post I've decided to recreate a mani Sam did a while ago for one of our Danglefoot collaboration posts (you can see Sams post here and mine here) as I really loved it when she posted it and this guest post is a perfect excuse for me to recreate it.

Guest Post: Vicky from The Polish List

Hi everyone, my name is Vicky and I have a blog called The Polish List. Recently Sam advertised for guest post volunteers and seeing as I have long been a fan of hers, I jumped at the chance to write for her amazing blog. I love Sam's nail art and swatches, her metallic stamped manis are always so beautiful and I love seeing her new designs.

Although I am not great at stamping, I wanted to create some nail art based loosely (extremely loosely) on a red and gold nail design that Sam did in this post here



Guest Post: Abigail from Polished Dreams

Hello hello to the lovely readers of Sam's blog! I'm Abigail and you may or may not know me from my own blog Polished Dreams or Instagram. I'm very excited to be doing a guest post while Sam is away so I'll get stuck right in to the nails!

Opulent Essences - Taste The Rainbow Collection

I've been after some neon polishes for a while now as it's something I'm lacking in my huge polish collection, so was really excited when I discovered the Taste the Rainbow collection from UK Indie brand Opulent Essences. They're super bright and really didn't disappoint.

Danglefoot Polish Snow & Charming Duo

I have a review and swatches of the newest Once Upon A Time duo from Danglefoot polish to share with you today. This time the duo is inspired by Snow and Charming and the colours are so perfect. I was also lucky enough to be sent a bottle of Hayley's new top coat to try out.

GellifiQue One Step Gel Colour Review*

I was recently sent a one step gel polish from GellifiQue to test and review and I was really excited to give it a try as I've never tried a one step gel before. Here's how I got on.

Jamberry Nail Wraps Review*

I was recently contacted by a lovely UK based Jamberry consultant called April, who very kindly asked me to review some of the Jamberry wraps that she sells. Having never tried them before, I jumped at the chance to give them a go.

Danglefoot Polish Hook & Swan Duo - Collaboration with Hellznails

As soon as I saw that Hayley at Danglefoot Polish was releasing a Once Upon a Time nail polish duo, I knew that I had to have it! No only is the concept amazing but the colours are beautiful too. +Helen Clark over at Hellznails bought the duo too and very kindly asked me if I wanted to do a collaboration post with her, and I jumped at the chance. Read on to see what I thought of the polishes and the nail art I created using them.

Nail Collaboration: Part 4 - 1st Stamping Plate

It is the final week of mine and +Helen Clark's nail art collaboration and for our final prompt we decided to do a mani using our first ever stamping plates. Here is what I created using a plate from my first set of stamping plates.

Nail Collaboration: Part 3 - Inspired by Fashion

Me and +Helen Clark of Hellz Nails are on week 3 of our blog collaboration and this week we decided to do nail art inspired by an outfit...or 3 in this case! We have both worked off the same picture but we have no idea what the other is doing, so this is a really fun prompt! Here is the mani I created using one of the outfits for inspiration.


Nail Collaboration: Part 2 - Recreation

It is week 2 of mine and +Helen Clark's blog collaboration, and this week we are doing a recreation mani. We had to pick one of each other's mani's from Instagram to recreate and I was really spoiled for choice! I managed to narrow it down, so here is the mani I recreated and I hope I've done it justice.
