Fragrance Direct Friday (on Saturday) & Festive Nail Art

 Hi guys, today I have the last (for a little while anyway) instalment of Fragrance Direct Friday and my first festive mani this year.  This weekly feature will be going away for a little while, but instead, I will be posting about some fabulous budget polishes from elsewhere around the web on Saturdays.  I have some really great shades that are quite hard to find swatches for online, so I'm looking forward to sharing all those beauties with you in the weeks to come!

Fragrance Direct Friday (on Saturday)

 Hi guys, welcome to the weekend!  I don't know about you, but I am seriously looking forward to Doctor Who tonight!  I'm gutted that I haven't had time to do any DW nails yet, but I may do some tonight when it's finished anyway : )   Before that though, I have this weeks installment of Fragrance Direct Friday.  I'm sad to announce that next weekend will be the last one of these features for a little while, but don't worry, I will be doing a new, as yet un-named feature, with lots of bargain's from elsewhere around the web, in it's place.

 Hi guys, hows your weekend been so far?  Sorry this post is so late, I was really busy this afternoon, and time just kind of got away from me.  Anyway, today for Fragrance Direct Friday, I have just 1 polish and some nail art, but as you can see, it's a stunner!

Hi guys, and welcome to another instalment of Fragrance Direct on Friday.  Today I have 3 polishes to show you, and, as you can probably tell, some nail art too.  Swatches can get boring when you see too many, so I'm trying to mix it up a little : )

Fragrance Direct Friday (on Saturday)

 Hi guys, I'm back for another Fragrance Direct Friday (on Saturday) post, and since I've been bombarding you with swatches over the last couple of weeks from UK Indie Month, I figured I would do some nail art for this weeks FDF.

Fragrance Direct Friday (on Saturday)

Hi peeps, welcome to the weekend!  I'm back today for yet another instalment of Fragrance Direct Friday, and I have 3 polishes to show you.  First up is this yummy chocolate colour above by Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear, called Chocolate Nut - available here for just 99p (surprise surprise!))  This is a really nice brown with lots of golden shimmer.  I originally bought this polish just because I didn't own a single brown, but once I swatched this I really liked it.  It really does remind me of chocolate - I was hankering for some Galaxy while I painted these I can tell you!

 Hey peeps!  I'm back with another instalment of Fragrance Direct Friday, and today I have the last 2 polishes from the Rimmel Lycra Pro range.  The shade you see above is Night Flight which is currently available for 99p here.  It's a really really really dark purple cream.  I love this colour, and it's a great dark base for glitters if you don't want pure black. This is shown at 2 coats here, no drama, and hardly any clean up needed!

Fragrance Direct Friday (on Sunday)

 

Hi everyone, how was your weekend?  I'm back today with another instalment of Fragrance Direct Friday (sorry it's such a late one by the way)  Any of you who saw part 2 of my haul post yesterday will already know that I was planning to do this post yesterday, but had what I called a brain fart, and ended up with nothing to post!  I may have accidentally swatched the wrong polish, and although it was the same brand, and also a very similar colour, it isn't on the site, and I didn't get it from there!  So, I ended up doing the swatches for this post earlier this afternoon!

Fragrance Direct Friday (on Sunday)

Hi gorgeous girls (and guys), how are you?  I'm really sorry I didn't get this posted yesterday like I planned to.  I had a really busy day with work, and just didn't have enough time to get the photos watermarked and the post typed up before falling asleep.  I was shattered last night!   Anyway, I'm back with another instalment of Fragrance Direct Friday, and the polish I have for you today is a real beaut!

Fragrance Direct Friday (on Saturday)

Hi everyone, as I said last week, this feature will be on Saturday until the end of the Crumpet's Nail Tarts 33day Challenge about 10 weeks from now. : )
Anyway, the polish I have to sow you today is Revlon Top Speed - Mistletoe -  99p here.  (In case you missed it last time, you can also get the very popular Royal from this line at the same price)  Mistletoe is a really dark olive green flecked with gold.

Fragrance Direct Friday

Hi everyone, we all looking forward to the weekend?  I'm not off till Monday so I'm super jealous of the rest of you!  Anyway, I'm back with the second instalment of Fragrance Direct Friday.  This is the last week that this will actually be on Friday.  From next Monday, I will be taking part in the Crumpet's Nail Tarts 33 day challenge which is Monday, Wednesday and Friday every week, so I will be doing Fragrance Direct Friday - On Saturday, until the 13th December when the challenge has finished.  I don't mind though - I'm really looking forward to my first challenge.  If there's one thing I struggle with, it's choosing from my stash, so having prompts will help with that a lot!

Fragrance Direct Friday

*All products purchased by me.
Hi all, today I am introducing a weekly feature for my blog called Fragrance Direct Friday.  Anyone who is familiar with this site knows that there is many a bargain to be had there.  They stock loads of branded cosmetics at greatly reduced prices as well as perfumes and bath and body/skincare etc.  They won't have an entire line of polishes in stock, mostly last season/excess stock etc, but they do have a bucket load of polishes for under £2, including Essie's for £1.99, and Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure's for £1.49.  They also stock a selection of OPI's for £3.99.  Much of my stash has amassed from fragrance direct buying frenzies, and I never buy a mainstream polish unless I've checked there first  (Although my basket total has always been under £20)
 Every Friday I will be featuring swatches and reviews for a polish I have bought from there, and links to the item wherever possible.
