Dark Metal Lacquer - Ordinary Vanity

*This polish was sent to me in exchange for a completely honest review.

Hiya lovelies!  Today I have a gorgeous new polish to show you from Dark Metal Lacquer that was kindly sent to me for review with my last order.  This is Ordinary Vanity (named after a song from the Silent Hill 2 Soundtrack) - a beautiful nude crelly with black and white matte square and hexagon shaped glitter, as well as gold microglitter.

A-Z of Polish: Z is for........Zoya!

 Hiya lovelies!  So, can you believe we're on the very last letter of the alphabet now!?  I can't believe I've been doing this challenge for practically half a year, it really doesn't feel like it's been that long.  If, like me, you're sad that this challenge is over, don't fret, as we will be starting A2Z next week.  Yup, we're doing the whole alphabet AGAIN! :D  It's going to be a little different this time though - if the last one was the A-Z of Polish, then this one is more like the A-Z of mani's.  Each letter of the alphabet is assigned a word, and our job will be to interpret that word in any way we see fit.  We also have a few new ladies joining us, so expect a post from me to introduce the new A2Z, and everyone involved in it :D

Dark Metal Lacquer - Mystery Box Review (September)

Hiya lovelies!  Today I have something exciting to show you all.  Last month, Dark Metal Lacquer launched a monthly mystery box, where each month there will be a theme, and the box will include polishes to fit that theme, plus a few little extras (some of which may be beauty items, or even something edible.) The polishes are exclusive to the boxes, and the price will vary from month to month, depending on what the theme is for that month. (For example, a holo themed box would be a little pricier than others, due to the cost of the supplies) The theme for the first month was Glitter, and the box was only £12.  Even if it had been a little pricier I probably would have still bought it, but £12 is a heck of a bargain!

A-Z of Polish: Y is for.....Your Choice :D (Dark Metal Lacquer - Flashy Sparklies)

*Purchased by me

 Hiya lovelies!  Sorry this post is a bit late, I've had a super busy week this week and didn't get around to it yesterday.  Nonetheless, we're up to the penultimate week of the A-Z of Polish, and the letter is Y.  I didn't have anything for Y in my stash, so I decided to do "your choice" for this prompt, and just pick something I really wanted to wear............

Dark Metal Lacquer - Dreaming & Heurt

*Purchased with my own money :D

Hiya lovelies!  Hope you're all having a great weekend so far.  Today I have a couple of Dark Metal Lacquer swatches to share with you - Heurt, which was one of Kamila's first creations, and Dreaming, which is from the more recent Autumn collection.......

Quirk - Dreams Can Come True

*Products in this post were sent to me in exchange for a 100% honest review

Hi guys!  Today I have a post to show you that makes me very happy and very sad, all at the same time.  As most of you will know by now, Quirk have recently had to stop producing polish :'(  Even sadder, Kerrie had a few gorgeous new collections she was ready to release, so today I will be showing you one of them.  Luckily Kerrie has decided to sell these as glitter mixes instead, so whilst you won't be able to buy them as ready made polishes, you can still own these pretties............

The Neverending Pile Challenge - Glow in the Dark

 Hi guys, and welcome to another day of the neverending pile challenge.  The prompt for today is glow in the dark.  I don't actually have any gitd untrieds, so I improvised by using an untried neon topper in a glow in the dark mani :D

Tara's Talons - Too Girlie Girlie (designed by me!)

 Hi guys, today I have a Tara's Talons polish to show you that I'm very excited about.  Recently, Tara ran a competition to design a polish for her Fan Collection, and receive a bottle of that polish, and I was lucky enough to have my idea chosen as one of the winners.  How awesome is that!?

A-England Stamping

 Hi guys!  As promised I'm back with some nail art that was actually painted this year :D This poor mani has been sitting in my Ready to Post folder for ages now, not because I didn't like it, but because it didn't seem to fit anywhere in the schedule.  I figured it was about time it got it's turn in the spotlight......

Guest Post for Pocket Money Polishes

 Hi guys!  No nails from me on here today I'm afraid, but I do have the absolute honour of guest posting for the lovely Charlie from Pocket Money Polishes.  To see the mani in all its technicolour glory, head on over to her blog :D

Quirk - Oopsie Daisy #4

Hi guys :)  Today I have a beautiful polish from the awesome UK Indie brand Quirk to show you.  This is from the Oopsie Daisies range, which are prototypes/polishes that didn't fit in with any collections/polishes that Kerrie can't make any more of for whatever reason, and this one is simply labelled Oopsie Daisy #4.  How sweet is the sticker with all the daisies on it!

Tri-Polish Tuesdays

Hi guys! I'm back today with the third Tri-Polish Tuesday of this month.  If you missed the first 2, the colours for this month are blue, green and purple, and I have another mani with all 3 colours........

Tri-Polish Tuesdays

Hi guys, and welcome to my second Tri-Polish Tuesday.  In case you didn't see last weeks post, the colours for this month are purple, blue and green.  I used all 3 colours in last weeks mani, although I think today's mani also qualifies as all 3, since I've made some purple in the middle of my gradient :)

Indy's Indies - Tetris & Twister

 *Some products in this post were discounted in exchange for review.

Hi guys, today I have 2 more gorgeous Indy's Indies polishes to show you.  Both of these polishes are based on games that I remember from my childhood, and I think Danielle has done a fab job of turning them into polishes......

Hi guys, I know this is a bit late, since Valentine's Day was yesterday, but I have 2 more polishes from Indy's Indies Valentine's Collection to share with you.  I had originally planned to only get 4 of this collection, but what can I say, I'm weak ;)

Nail-Art-A-Go-Go - Day 15 - Round & Square

 Hi guys and welcome to Day 15 of the NAGG challenge.  The prompt for today is Round & Square, which seemed like the perfect prompt to bust out the circle glitters.  Unfortunately, this seems to be one of those manis that looks better in real life than in a macro photo.....

Nail-Art-A-Go-Go - Day 13 - Hearts

 Hi guys, and welcome to day 13 of the NAGG challenge.  The prompt for today is hearts - very fitting since it's Valentine's Day tomorrow.  Luckily, for those of you who aren't too keen on the holiday, I won't be posting any other Valentine's mani's after today, although I do have 2 more polishes from Indy's Indies Valentine's collections to show you tomorrow.
