Some of you
may or may not have noticed that I've changed the name of my blog so you might
find the watermark on some of my photos different from my blog name. There’s
more than a few photos with the old watermark which I haven’t even started
writing up the posts for yet but they’ll be making an appearance soon.
Hopefully.
Months ago I
felt like I was having a manicure crisis when my base coat dropped on the floor
and broke on the spot. I wanted to kick myself because I usually only have one
base coat and one top on hand. New ones are only purchased when they’re needed
but I guess that needs to be changed. A backup will always be handy!
Whilst
shopping for a new base coat I added a Misa top coat to my order since my
current one was almost finished. Pretty good timing huh? But I'm quite
disappointed with it. I've owned a Misa top coat before and back then really
liked the fact that it protected my manicures well enough and the shiny finish
it gave, better than some others I've tried. This one just had a strong chemical smell to it. Don’t know what’s going on with this one but I'm hoping
the next time I purchase another thing of theirs it won’t be like that again.
I've seen so
many people post those beautiful matte manicures on Instagram that it made me
want to own a matte polish so in my basket that China Glaze matte polish went
too.
The Jessica
polishes belong to the A night at the Opera fall 2013 collection. I've never
given this brand a try but I've seen a few swatches here and there so here’s my
chance to start doing some swatches myself and so that’s all to my haul.
I've got a
massive bunch of photos to edit for you guys but after sticking with me for 5
years my laptop finally gave up on me. Now I'm trying to get used to a new
laptop operating on Windows 8 and a newer update of the photo editing software
I usually use. Hopefully I can improve my pace and get all these posts up soon
:)
