Nails Inc - Sugar House Lane

This is my second from my collection of the Nails Inc Sprinkles. Missing Pudding Lane but I am adoring these cute polishes, I will definitely add that to my list some day!

Sugar House Lane is a lovely creamy brown full of black and silver mattefied glitter, allows you to wear a full on glitter mani without sparkling like a Christmas tree not that I mind that I love my glitters ;3



As with all glitters this was not the most fun and easy to remove even with my little magic pot of Borjouis it took a good 40 minutes around to remove Sweets Way but it was a little easier than the foil or scrubbing method at least. Still it's not enough to put me off as these are such cute pretty polishes :3

Enjoy! x

Check out the amazing birthday giveaway by The Crumpet over at her blog!

The Crumpet: The "It's MY Birthday" British Giveaway !!!: Hi Goddesses It's my birthday this week, and I wanted to celebrate with a Giveaway.  The blog is approaching some major milestones,...

Best of British 26/8/12

The weather in the UK may have improved a little but not enough for Vic to justify running off to Cornwall to catch the surf. Instead she's made do with her Surfin' USA mani.

It's been KBShimmer Week this week at The Crumpet 5 polishes, but which was her favourite ?

Laura has been trying out stamping for the first time this week and was particularly fond of her classyblack and silver floral design.

PrettyKittyClaws has been making the most of the sunshine by copying The Crumpet with a Red Holo Dotticure. feautring Ozotics 518

Helly at the Nail Newbie got her holo on with a purple holo gradient featuring OPI DS Original!

Charlotte at Charlottes-nails has been catching up with the lazy days of summer challenge with a ruffle accent nail.

Alexis at Glitter Tips managed to overcome a nasty case of nail art block with a Black and Gold NOTD inspired by her jewellery collection.

Claire at nuthin' but a nail thing managed to get hold of some OPI Black Spotted and gave it a go over some bright NEONS.

Seeing as the British weather has been seasonably rainy, there has been a lack of barbaques this year. Unless it is in the form of nail art from Enigmatic Rambles.

Lou entered the Golden Jungle over at Painted Nails & Baking Scales finding some new polish species to describe

This week at Northern Nails there are Turtles in a Guest Post , Also Jo has started a new series of posts called Mashups!

Emma's been busy swatching the newBarry M Burgundy Croc Effects over different colours on Imagination In Colour!

It's texture time in the BFF Challenge and Kerrie from PishPosh and Polish made great use of Heart-Shaped beads but was it a success?

Ruth had some fun with pastel colours and created some colourful zebra nails using her new stampers!

Steph is showing off. Peacock feathers in the (rare) sunshine.

It's been a special week for Allie and in celebration she's been wearing some Sea Green Glitter Birthday Nails.

Dimpal is absolutely loving these fish egg nails Fish Egg Nails she also did Nicole's Me+Blue Mani

Nails Inc - Sweets Way


Finally as you know the sprinkles are finally mine. I've wanted Sweets Way since they were first realeased and after seeing the 3 set on QVC for the great price of £23.61 inc p+p I had to have them!

Obviousley the first I'd try would be Sweets Way and I simply love it. It's so cute and it really does remind me of the topping of fairy cakes I love making :3

Sweets Way is a milky white base packed with light blue, pink and white glitter. The application of this was pretty simple, I applied it like any other polish and it's quite oppaque in 2 coats.

I can see this being worn a lot, it's so cute and there's more to do with it then just a full coverage. Accent nail or a nice french tip maybe? ;)



Have you got any of the sprinkles yet? Which one is your favourite? I'm missing Pudding Lane as it's my least favourite.
Enjoy! x

Nails Inc - Victoria


I have this picture today which really isn't that good, I had taken it at 6am in the morning my eyes were probably very unfocused lol This is what I wore on Saturday for my sister's wedding :3

Base we have Nails Inc Victoria, 3 coats. This wasn't my favourite polish ever I found it really difficult to get an even mani. I swiped Barry M Silver multi glitter across the tips, it's a really beautiful polish.

Sorry for the terrible photo, there wasn't much spare time to be getting good light and pictures lol and then it had chipped sometime during the evening, Boo!!

It was a fun, cute mani to do anyhow.


This week is going to be all about my 3 Nails Inc sprinkles, so watch out for that. I'm keen to see how they are going to be for removing!

Enjoy! x

Nails Inc- The Sprinkles Collection


So exciting to say I finally have 3 of the Nails Inc Sprinkles. QVC recently had the pack of 3 for a total of £23.61 inc P+P. In the pack were Sugar House Lane, Topping Lane and Sweets Way, out of the 4 these are my preffered 3 as I am not the fondest of Pudding Lane which is the blue one.

How cute are these, I have bottle pics so far. I have had no time to change my nails this week due to sewing up over a dozen roses for a wedding box. I will begin swatching these next week :3


Up first Sweets Way my absolute fave of the sprinkles. A milky white base full of pink, blue and white glitter.


Sugar House Lane a lovely milky brown full of black and white 'sprinkles'.


and Topping Lane an awesome pink base full of magenta, purple and white 'sprinkles'.

Awesome yes? Have you gotten any of these sprinkles? What's your favourite?

See you after the wedding for sprinkles of swatches :D

Enjoy! x

A England - Tristam

I've actually been wearing this for a few days but haven't had any time to make a post on it as i've been sewing from morning to night to finish a wedding post box design for Saturdays wedding for my sister!
On to the polish. This is A England Tristam a beautiful deep blue scattered holo and it's a dream, I love it, it was easy to apply, was evenly oppaque in 2 coats and I just love blues!
Sadly there was no sun but I tried it capture the holo part as best I could but you can just see how gorgeous this deep pure blue is.
I can't wait to add more of these polishes to my stash.
Do you own any A England, what's you favourite?
Enjoy! x
