Nails Inc.

Hi honeyss!
To any of you who watch QVC you'll understand how good some of the brands the channel actually sells, it's definitely improved over the years and isn't just for flannel nighties and cleaning products (although I do end up watching some of these hours on the nights I can't sleep ha ha!).
These days they do brands like Bobbi Brown, Benefit, Smashbox, Bare minerals, OPI, Nails inc and lots lots more! They do really good little bundles and sets for reasonable prices, and it's became the place I buy the bulk of beauty products, and probably around 98% of my nail products.
This christmas, Santa knowing me so well left 2 Nails Inc boxes under my tree, both containing 7 full size beautiful nail varnishes! Yipee!
I thought I'd show you some of the more 3D and effect colours :)
I was about to paint my nails for real and like everytime I go to do my nails, I end up painting all my nails different colours to determine with shade to choose, I thought I'd photograph it so you can see how the different colours look and the difference between the effects. I applied two coats.

The names of the colours are (left to right)
Bakers Row
RedBurn Street
Disco Lane
Elystan Street
Bedford Square
Bakers row and Redburn stree (the first two) are part of the sprinkles collection, and are supposed to be like sprinkles on a cupcake which is pretty cute! They are very strong colours.. as in you don't need to apply a different colour first off which I have to do with so many glitters.
The sprinkles are quite large and you definitely get a scattered effect when on the nail, I had a lot of my sprinkles on the bottom half of my nail which annoys me, even with glitter I have to have the WHOLE thing covered with many coats, but it's a cute idea and I'm sure I'll get my wear out of them as they are gorgeous colours.
Disco Lane is a Black with holographic sparkles, it goes on very dark and it definitely has a little effect, it dried a little matte and rough which I'm guessing is because of the flecks of glitter, I'm hoping it'll have a nicer finish with a top coat.
Elystan Street is the perfect christmas colour! It's super sparkly with red AND gold, it has a really good mix of the two aswell. It's very vibrant already but I'd be tempted to put a plain red underneath to give more depth.
Finally Bedford Square, which is definitely very impressive! On it's own it's quite sheer, some may like this , but for me I would use a plain gold base first to give it the wow factor. It's also holographic so it looks amazing and sparkly on the nail. Perfect bling nail colour!


See which colour I chose in my next post... coming soon!
