Scotland
I'm a simple Scottish girl with an unusual name and a strange obsession for nail polish! My aim is to capture what the eye sees, with a camera! Too much nail polish and never enough time. I have also started wildlife photography, which I enjoy very much. Welcome to my little world :-)

Unknown Brand - Glittery Light Blue

 




Again this is another polish I wanted to swatch before I binned it! 

This is okay to use, okay to apply and good drying (4-5 minutes a coat).  It is a mini bottle but the brush is good. The formula was slightly thick. It is a nice glittery polish with a slight shimmer.

Unknown Brand - Shimmery Purple

I was given this polish a long time ago and I have no idea what the brand is. I have 2 more colours from the set, that I'll post soon.



This is okay to use, okay to apply and good drying (4 minutes a coat). The bottle is a mini but the brush is really good. The formula is slightly thick but think it has aged. It was okay to work with. It is a nice purple I think. I was going to bin it but decided to swatch it before binning. I don't like binning nail polishes that haven't been blogged. As these blogs are my collection and I like looking back at the photos.

Stargazer - 102 Neon Yellow

I have been seriously neglecting the 2 nail polish blogs! Sorry.





This is over 20 years old and well used! So I had to put a little nail polish thinner in it.

It is easy to use, easy to apply and good drying (2-3 minutes a coat). The brush is thin but good and the formula went on nicely after thinning. It is a nice, bright and bold yellow and it is also UV reactive! This lasted really well. Gorgeous.
