Manicure Monday - Quick NOTD with a special Guest and Merry Christmas !

This Manicure Monday is a special one as it features a special guest, my niece, Kavya. 

I have my family over for Christmas and by the time this  post will be up, we will be in Hunter Valley happily tasting wine and cheese ! 

We did our manicures to match our outfits. 
I am wearing hematite and silver jewelry, so I did a dark grey nail polish with some metallic accents. 

Kavya is wearing white shorts with a top with aqua colored prints, so her mani is in shades of aqua ..

Hope you liked this quick NOTD post. Leaving you guys with an old pic of last year with my niece. 

Merry Christmas !!

Manicure Monday - FOA Glitterati in Boogie Wonderland

This Manicure Monday is showcasing my love for glitter polishes following the previous manicure. 
I love glitter nail polishes, but they are such a pain at removing, that I usually don't venture in a full on glitter mani and happily don them as accent nails.

However, for a change, today we have a full on fun, bling - bling, colorful glitter manicure featuring Face of Australia 'Boogie Wonderland' from the Glitterati Limited Edition. 

3 coats with a top coat

'Boogie Wonderland' is a milky base loaded with glitter. It has multi colored hexa and bar glitters. I don't like my nails being see through the polish and this is such a light base, so I I applied three coats on my nails and top coat.

The polish has lots of glitter, so placing the glitter all over nails wasn't a big deal. The bar glitters stick out a bit and may cling to your clothes and hair, but its no biggie as the polish is so gorgeous ans is worth a bit of trouble. This is the only one I have tried from this range and I am loving it.


Do you like full on glitter manis ? Have you tried this one ?

Manicure Monday - Sportsgirl Nail It in 'Speckled Mint'

Lo and Behold, my crazy obsession for polishes continues, to the extent that the husband has also noticed ;) . Thanks to my obsession, we are nailing it today, with Sportsgirl Nail It in 'Speckled Mint'. I believe this is a new release by Sportsgirl, they also have the twin sister of this in lilac called 'Speckled Lilac'.

This is my first mint polish and OMG I freaking love it. It has so much dimension to it, all sorts and sizes of gorgeous little glitters, I can spot red, blue, green, gold, silver and pink and purple speckles.

I kept n kept battling with the shopaholic devil in me, but she took advantage and I walked out with this beauty. 
 

I have no regrets, happy adding this to my collection. The pictures are with three coats and no top coat.

I love Sportsgirl polishes. This one is bit runny in texture, not sure how long this will last as this is my first time wearing this, but will keep you posted. Click HERE to check more of Sportsgirl NAIL IT in action.

NOTD - Sportsgirl Nail It in 'Bossy Boots'

Today's post is Sportsgirl NOTD post in 'Bossy Boots' with accent nail of Sports girl '100s and 1000s' featured HERE before. Bossy Boots is a gorgeous creamy purple shade. You must have seen 'Bossy Boots' featured in my HAUL previously, I bought it from Sportsgirl clearance. 

It has a fantastic creamy texture, lovely to apply, goes opaque in two coats. The mani fared well for 4-5 days with minimal chipping (with no top coat). Overall, I am very happy with this polish.
