*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.

Liebster Award
Hi everyone, just a quick post from me today, but I'll be back tomorrow to introduce you to a new weekly feature called Fragrance Direct Friday.
This post is just to let you know I have been nominated for the Liebster award. I'm not 100% sure what it is, but I've seen it around on other blogs. From what I can tell, it's more of a way of getting newer or less-known blogs out there for people to see, and to let your readers know a little bit about you and your blog. It is given to bloggers with less than 200 followers but a good blog. There are a few rules to claim the award. They are:
1. You must nominate 11 other bloggers, all with fewer than 200 followers, and you must notify them of your nomination.
2. You must answer 11 questions given to you by the blogger who nominated you.
3. You must give your nominees 11 questions to answer.
4. You must link back to the blogger who nominated you.
The wonderful lady that nominated me was Melissa from Take Me To Your Lacquer and these are the answers to her questions:

Pink Stars
Hey all, sorry I haven't posted in a few days. I am working on things that are not quite finished, so you'll have some good stuff coming your way soon. (including Fragrance Direct Friday : D) This is a quick stamping mani I did a couple of days ago. The pink is Kleancolor - Metallic Pink (smaller amounts available from same place, this is just best value), which is shown at 1 coat here. It's a really great polish, can be used for stamping as well, but they do smell really bad. Although, I own a few of them, and I don't find it as bad now as when I first got them. They're so pretty I can't help but use them a lot, and I suppose I've got used to it. Just be prepared, as it's very different to any polish I've smelt before, it's quite weird!

Neon Mesh
Hi everyone, just a quick post from me today, as I need to get a really early night. This is a mani I did about a week ago. I have really wanted to use this neon pink from the moment I got my grubby little hands on it, it's just so bright in real life.

U.F.O's
This is the last mani I've had sitting in my drafts folder for a couple of weeks, so I thought I'd post it now and get the less than perfect photographs out the way first so it's all uphill from here!

Ice Blue Cream - Part 2
Here we have, as promised earlier, the stamping over Ice Blue Cream. This is the final matte version, but I have included a glossy picture after the jump.
