Bloom Edinburgh with Nubar 2010

Ah, I’m finally getting stuck into some of the polishes I bought on my Adelaide trip last weekend.

My partner chose this one when I was having trouble deciding which to try first.

 

Bloom Edinburgh. A gorgeous, gorgeous dark green (almost black) with a stunning shimmer through it.

This was two coats, but it is definitely a one-coater. You know me, I just like to do two even if it’s not necessary! This applied like a dream, so smooth and lovely.

I wanted to keep wearing it so after day one I added some flakies:

 

Nubar 2010. *Droooooool*. I love me some flakies.

But do you know what I love more?

 

Some matte flakies. I added a coat of China Glaze’s Matte Magic as the top coat.

I may have to get a bucket to attach to my chin because I love this. Seriously, matte flakies may just be my new ‘thing’. Don’t be surprised if you see 2010 layered on top of EVERYTHING and then mattified

 

Which do you prefer, matte or shiny flakies?

Major haul time

I finally got my haul from nailsupplies.us (formerly Transdesign). I am not happy because it took them a week to even post it and then it took 16 business days to get to me. I was waiting a long, long time.

Anyway, I have my parcel now but I’m not sure if I’ll be using them again!

Here’s what I got:

 

Essie

Mint Candy Apple, Going Incognito, Borrowed & Blue

 

China Glaze

C-c-courage, Blue Sparrow, First Mate. How gorgeous are these?! Seriously, I just want to wear them all now!!

 

Ruby Pumps and C-c-courage. Get on my nails now!

 

Color Club and OPI

Fashion Addict and Planks a Lot.  Seriously pretty.

 

Aaaand I also got my order from FeelUnique from the UK.

 

SpaRitual

The Love Your Planet polishes, Greenhouse and Earth Matters. Gorgeous!

 

Nubar

Nubar 2010. I cannot wait to layer this over everything I own!!!

 

Have you gotten any good hauls lately?
