Snap, Crackle and Pop

I bought the Barry M Crackle nail polish back in December and consequently let it sit in my nail polish box untouched and unopened. Then, I read Bubble Dreams’ blog on the China Glaze versions and thought I’d fulfil the Barry M version’s destiny.

I decided to use Rimmel Rose Libertine nail polish as a base:


I love the effect. It’s so clever how it works. You don’t need to wear polish underneath for the effect either. If you prefer, you can paint this straight onto bare nails (just with base coat) which looks quite cool.

Have you used this polish or something similar? What base colours have you tried? I’m not sure which colour would look best although I've seen white which creates a fab zebra nail.

I'm so obessed with pink nail polish and I was on a big mish last weekend to find a really bright Barbie pink polish. My inspiration came in the form of Jessica from 'The Only Way Is Essex.' If you haven't seen it, then you're missing out on possibly the worse acting ever seen but at the same time a wholly addictive piece of televisual broadcasting. If you have seen it, then I'm guessing you either love or hate? Anyway, I love trashy TV so this is right up my street!

This is Jessica who often wears the loveliest pink nail polish:


You can kind of see the colour here:

And here is my pink polish, Urban Princess by Rimmel which was in offer in Boots too so only cost around £3.50. I love the bright pink colour so much and the polish has lasted brilliantly - about 4 days completely chip free.


Have you seen any of The Only Way Is Essex? What do you think?

NOTD – Rose Libertine

I love pink. Pink anything and everything. Pink dresses, pink shoes, pink lipstick, pink shampoo. You name it, I love it! I’m a proper girly girl so more often than not I’m sporting a shade of pink nail polish on my nails. Recently, I’ve been wearing a bright pink polish from Boots 17 but I decided that now the nights are drawing in and the autumn wardrobe is making an appearance, I should probably tone down the colour.

So, I popped into Boots at the weekend and decided to use my Boots Advantage Points to buy a new pink (muted) polish. I picked up Rose Libertine by Rimmel which is a gorgeous dusty rose pink. Perfect.


I love this polish so much. It’s definitely one of my favourite pinks.

What are your favourite pink polishes?
