You Beauty: Shade 017

Hello again - I'm struggling to keep up with blogging at the moment because I'm on a health and fitness kick and working out 6 days a week! I need to get the optimum routine going and then it will all come together again blogging-wise etc.  Trouble is I think I'm going to have to haul my sorry butt out of bed earlier in the morning and I'm just not a morning person.  Right - now that ramble's out of the way let's get onto the polish!

Shade 017 is for you if you like grape jelly.  Yes, it's a jelly finish and is the perfect match for grape jelly in a jar.  Of course it also has a generous sprinkling of fine glitter!  The blue and purple glitter complement the base polish perfectly and appear to swim on the nails through the translucence.  It's not terribly summery but sometimes it feels good to mix it up...

You Beauty: Shade 004

After my last in your face nail polish post I've turned down the visual "volume" for want of a better word.

I found a new Australian made makeup and nail polish brand called You Beauty when I was away on holiday and I selected a few shades of nail polish to try.  You Beauty is Terry White Chemist's own budget beauty brand so local girls can check out the line next time they drop into their local Terry White!  Shade 004 is a lovely subdued pale lavender blue creme.  It applied smoothly and two coats was sufficient to get adequate coverage. This shade adds to my ever growing collection of pastel cremes...

Latest additions to my polish collection: Part 2!

I told you my vacation nail polish post was going to be in two parts - simply because I'd posted my purchases prematurely before I'd finished my polish hunt! After another too long wait, welcome to part 2!  Mostly pictures, very little words here because I just want to get the post up, up and away (Cliched? Who me??)...
