Topic Tuesday: Polishes You Regret Not Buying

Such and easy one to answer, that would have been Model's Own Speckled Collection, I've managed to get a couple from the collection but there are still a few eluding me!

  

Nail Art: Floral Flakies

Base Polish | Emily de Molly - Rock Solid

Don't remember where I got the flower stickers.

  

Stamping Plate: Nicole Diary - L12

Another plate I don't remember when specifically I bought it but it was in 2020.

The stamping plate comes with a blue protective layer which you peel off and branded backing. It is a large plate measuring at 145mm by 950mm.

The majority of the images on this plate are designed for Halloween and spooky season as a whole. All the images stamp across well, and the engraving works fine.

I've used this plate in a few sets of nails;

Topic Tuesday: Underrated Nail Brand

Barry M has been around since the 80's in the UK, I think as a nail brand they are often over looked for something more sparkly or more holographic. The Gelly line is pretty basic in terms of colours but they do make good basic cream polishes which are a good staple in any polish collection.

Purple Polish | Barry M - Dusky Mauve

Green Polish | OPI - Is That a Spear in Your Pocket?

Holo Purple Polish | Born Pretty Store - Tender

Nail Polish Swatch: Emily de Molly - Rock Solid

[Daylight, No Flash]

Colour | Steel Blue Base, Purple Blue Iridescent Flakies

Finish | Jelly Base with Flakies

Opacity | Three Coats Shown

Brush Type | Standard

How Much | 12ml

Vegan | Yes

Cruelty Free | Yes

Collection | March 2021

As this is iridescent it was difficult to photograph, the above photo is most accurate.

Because the polish is so packed with flakies the formula is tricky to work with and left my nails feeling chunky.
