H&M Dust & Diamonds

Hi everyone,

Well, since my perfect deep dark red nails are all dumped and ugly, I wanted to try another H&M polish today. This one is called Dust & Diamonds and it’s a chocolate milk brown, it reminds me of You don’t know Jacques by OPI but it’s lighter and somewhat warmer in tone, which suits my skintone better.

This is two coats but after I took the pictures I got bubbles on 5 of my nails which was a disappointment.

H&M Midnight Passion

Hi everyone,

After the blunder I made with the puple polish, I took that off and put on some of this amazing dark deep red. It’s a blood red if you ask me, this is two coats, one was more red but was slightly see through and streaky and I don’t like that look so I added another coat. For some reason though this polish didn’t dry completely, because when I woke up this morning it was bumped and horrible. I’d worn it the entire Monday before I went to bed, so that was odd, next time I’ll add a quickdrying topcoat.

H&M polishes I sent back

Hi everyone,

I saw a lot of nailpolishes on the H&M website and I’ve loved H&M polishes in the past that I bought the entire set to see them in real life. In the shops they never have the entire collection. Then when they arrived today I looked at the colours in real life (still in the bottle) and sent back the following colours for the reasons I give to you with each polish. Remember, these colours were sent back unswatched, so I can’t tell you anything about the quality or opacity of these sent back polishes.

All pictures were made in lamplight.

Soaked in purple:
Sent back because: I have colours very much like this (Ms. Socialite )

Going Banana:
Sent back because: This polish is a cool toned pastel yellow with a blue shimmer. Not a colour I particularly like.

Manhunter:
Sent back because: I have a black polish and I don’t need another black polish

No Mambo Jambo:
Sent back because: Reminds me of Misa – The Grass Is Greener On My Side
This is a medium green with a blue shimmer

U Must Have This:
Sent back because: Not as blue as it looked like on the website, it reminds me of many polishes just like it.

Hello Kitty Nailpolish in Turqouise:
Sent back because: It’s a not unique colour! It’s a slightly darker For Audrey.

Hello Kitty Nailpolish in Darling Pink:
Sent back because: An oldfashioned pink and I loved Get a Rose 4 Me better.

In the next few weeks you’ll see the colours I did keep swatched on my nails.
I kept: Moody Model, Hunt me Down, Miss Stone Heart, Dust & Diamonds, Get a Rose 4 Me, Midnight Passion and Red.

China Glaze LOL

Hi everyone,

We all know I absolutely love holographic polishes. I love them so much that every holo I see I buy, sometimes I’m disappointed, sometimes I’m amazed. This purple holo is from the China Glaze OMG! Collection (2008) this is one of those amazing holos that makes us crave for more. China Glaze has brought out a new holographic collection called Tronica that’s only available at Sally’s in America. Of course you can also find this collection on E-bay, but I found it on http://www.enchantra.eu/ , so coming soon is the China Glaze Tronica Collection.

Back to the polish I’m showing you here, this purple holo is called LOL. It’s a linear holo and a much smaller holographic then China Glaze put in their Kaleidoscope Collection. These holographic polishes look best in sunlight and other bright lights, inside the holo is almost unnoticeable and this polish turns into an amazing purple.
