Pink Wednesdays for a good cause
I notice round the bloggersphere that Wednesdays are when everyone wears pink and since October is also Breast Cancer Awareness I can not think of a better way to wear pink
I used OPI Excuse Moi and Collection White Ice on the accent finger, then I attached rhinestone ribbons with Color Club topcoat
Cancer is a horrific disease that has affected my family, I lost my Grandsha 13 years ago to it. I've been a supporter of cancer charities for years and wearing this mani hopefully will get people talking as well as my new John Cena tshirt since WWE are giving all profits from the "Rise above Cancer" merchandise to a breast cancer charity.
To those who have experienced any form of cancer, themselves or a family member, I send massive hugs and love. The more money that can be raised towards funding research so less people have to go through this awful disease the better.

Essie Smooth Sailing
In my Cosmetics Fairy haul I got my first ever essie polish.
Its a teenie tiny bottle but it only cost 99p. The colour is gorgeous, more of a lavender colour than blue with a lovely subtle shimmer.
The formula is a bit difficult but with two coats I achieved good coverage.
What are your essie experiences?

Sally Hansen HD and another Cosmetics Fairy haul
Hey lovelies
Ahh its the weekend. I got a parcel from Cosmetics Fairy on Friday, all the lovely stuff for £20 (give or take a few pennies)
I got a few new polishes, 2 Sally Hansen HDs.
Here is (a slightly scuffed after a days wear) Hue. Its a beautiful yellow with a gold shimmer. Its an almost pearl finish. I did find it a little streaky even after 2 coats, and I dont think my top coat helped, think I need to try a different one.
Hope you all have an awesome weekend, mine is going to be spent reading (so much uni work!)

Sparkly Pink
Hey lovely readers,
University is really bogging me down right now so theres not a huge amount of free time for working on intricate nail art. That said I am still painting my nails, its a welcome break. For most of this week I've been sporting this sparkly pink look. Its ELF Fluro pink topped with Hedy's holographic pink (whose name escapes me now).
I'm hoping to have a few hours spare this weekend to get some real nail art because I miss it!
