Models Own Blue Med

Hey,

Today I thought I'd show you one of the polishes from my Models Own haul. I couldn't decide which one to try first so I just closed my eyes and picked. Blue Med was the winner!

These pics are all pre clean-up so excuse the mess!







This was 3 coats and no top coat. The colour photographs really well and is exactly like this in real life.
I was really impressed overall with this polish. The brush is very precise and easy to use and I had no problems with application whatsoever. It dried really fast between coats and isn't as sheer as I thought it might be. Although there is a bit of a VNL in these pics, it isn't nearly so obvious in real life!
It's a gorgeous pale blue and reminds me so much of a polish I used to wear all the time when I was younger that I sadly lost at some point so I'm really pleased I picked this one. Can't wait to try the others now!

If you read my last post then you'll know I've been away for the weekend. I had a great time but am still pretty tired from it! A few too many shots were consumed.... I very rarely drink and will probably stop completely at some point but when I have a few too many I go a bit doo lally!!

Hope everyone had good weekends!

Models Own Haul

Hi!

This is another quickie post just to show you what I got from the Models Own sale.

I was feeling a bit sorry for myself because everyone else seemed to get their orders really fast and mine hadn't come but I decided to go check outside just incase the postman had delivered it without telling me. When I'm out the postman always just leaves any packages in our bottle box and then puts a note through the door to tell us it's there. There'd been no note but I went to check anyway. Low and behold there it was! Under a pile of bottles waiting to be recycled.... wait until Maz gets home!! Can't believe he piled stuff on top of my nail polish!! How did he not see it?! Men. Anyway all's well that ends well and least the box hadn't been put out for collection yet!

So here's what I got -

Love how they package them :)

(L-R) Peacock Green, Blue Med, Proper Copper, Emerald City, Magenta Divine

I'm really happy with my choices! It took a lot of self control not to order more but I have a girly weekend coming up so need all my pennies for that :)
I tried to choose at least one in a colour I wouldn't usually go for thus the Proper Copper. I'm so glad I did, it looks great. I can't wait to try them all.

I will show some swatches next week.

Sorry for my lack of posting this week. I've been a bit busy and unmotivated! In fact my nails have been bare all week... shock, horror!
As I said above though, I have a girls weekend this weekend so after I've finished this I'm going to dye my hair and do my nails!

Hope everyone has been having a good week. It's Friday tomorrow! Yaya!
