Nails / The Perfect Pair...


My latest nail crush is an eye catching duo, a creamy aqua turquoise shade from the brand Headline Colors formally known as Killer Colors. The shade I have is Poolside*, a vibrant aqua shade as seen on the catwalks from Gucci and Dior. The formulation is rich and glossy, I've worn this shade alone and didn't need a top coat thanks to the glossy finish. I used 2 coats for a nice even colour. I predict this shade will be very popular this spring/summer, this shade would look fab with a tan. Roll on Summer...

I love layering glitter/speckled polishes, the newest to join the ranks is from the new limited edition OPI collection Oz The Great and Powerful. Following the speckled/glitter top coat trend I was automatically attracted to Lights Of Emerald City*. This eye catching polish is packed full of white and iridescent squared confetti pieces. I found the formula to be on the 'gloopy' side, having said that it didn't put me off. I applied a coat as normal and then added extra white squares where needed. Just means it takes a little longer but well worth it when you see the results!
