Nail Polish: Battle of Blacks, Greys and Pinks

If you would like to see which nail polishes were battling it for the blacks, greys and pinks last year then click the colours to be taken to a new page. This year the battles will only be using the new polishes I have gotten since last year. Which is why Black, Grey and Pink have been joined as I didn't seem to have as many of these this year.

Seventeen - Rock Hard Nail Effects - Black | Claire's - Black Leather Effect | Nails Inc - New York Noir

Winner is:
Nails Inc and Kate Spade New York Noir, who could resist such a classic cream black polish

Now a couple of grey polishes

La Femme - Grey Cream | Ciate - Vintage

Winner is:
Ciate Vintage, I like this one as it is darker in tone to the La Femme.


And finally the new pinks:

La Femme - Mocha Pink | La Femme - Pink Cream | Models Own - Pink Blush | La Femme - Figg

Winner is:
La Femme Figg, reason is this is a much more dusky pink with a hint of lilac than the others. Less in your face.

Sunday Stamping: Plate Ending in an 8

Today we were to do some stamping using a plate ending in an 8. So I had a look through my stamping plates and came across M08, and so I used some of the butterflies over a pink gradient base.

Gradient Polishes: Models Own - Pink Blush, ELF - Hot Pink, ELF - Rosy Raisin
Stamping Polish: W7 - Black
Stamping Plate: M08
Acrylic Paints

Swatch: Models Own - Pink Blush

I was contacted by Littlewoods to review a couple of Models Own nail polishes, this is the second of the three reviews. You can see the review for Gold Rush here. I didn't actually know Littlewoods sold cosmetics! But now I know I can get nailcare products at Littlewoods.

On to the nail polish, this one is Pink Blush (NP 037).

Colour: Pink

Finish: Cremé

Opacity: Three coats

Brush Type: Standard

How Much? 14ml

This shade screams Barbie pink to me, those little pink heeled shoes they always wore. Not something I would really wear as is, but with some nail art on top it is easily wearable by anyone.
