The Whole Make-up collection: Nails.

So hi...

LAst post of my whole make-up collection series today and it's a biggie! Talking nails today and I have a fair few of nail polishes, because of this I'll be listing the shades from each brand! You may also notice I have a lot of greens blues reds and purples for nails, i don't mean to I don't tend up picking those shades and colours up..
First I'll get the nail remover out the way, just two of these. First is the superdrug's own brand nail polish which I use with cotton pads, nice and simple. Second is for the laziest of the lazy! From primark's beauty range is the very convenient twist pot. It's so easy, out your finger in and twist, you do have to have for finger in there a while but still the easiest option for now.

Anyhow Let's get on with the actual nail polishes now, starting with the brand I own the most of, which unsurprisingly is MUA, £1 nail polish just can't be laughed at, it last about 4-5 days with 2-3 coats and no base or top coat so can probably last at least a week if you went the whole way with base and top coat.
MUA, Left to Right:
Fever Red
Sweet Peach
Lush Lilac
Plum Noir
Pitch Black
Pistachio Ice Cream
Strawberry Crush
Mud Pie
Koala Bear
Moody Mink
Leapfrog
All Nude
Bright Coral
Bold Blue
Ultramarine
And lastly from MUA is the super strength polish base coat.

The next brand Is PS beauty from Primark, I have a lot of these as they do little mini sets of 4 polishes for £1, that 25p per nail varnish.


Unfornunately the primark polishes don't have shade names of their packaging but I own a blue set of 4 and a red set. I also own two of their single pots which are £1 each, one is a gorgeous sky blue colour and the other is a gorgeous sparkly purply tinted burgundy colour.
 I have one more nail varnish from Primark which came from a nail set with this polish and glitter, I wasn't fond of the glitter though so I like to wear this lilac grey colour on it's own, very minimal and pretty.

Those two are my biggest collection, after these it's just very random polishes I've picked up or gotten as a present.
Miss Sporty.
Miss Sporty also don't have shades on their bottles but I have a clear polishes a perfect green turquoise colour and a very bright bold blue colour.
Next I own three shades from Matalan which I'm pretty sure I got from my mother as she's the only person in my family that shops there! these were in a set as a Christmas present I'm pretty sure, You might be able to guess but they also do not name separate names to their shades. So I have a pretty golden colour, a dark shimmery red and a very strange muddy brown/ nude colour which is pretty nice on the nails.

So now we're on to the singles, I have one from Technics which is a super dark blue colour.
And Lastly is a nail polish from colourworks, which I don't actually know where I've gotten it from, but it's an orangey pink colour.

And so this mini series comes to a end. Did you enjoy seeing all my beauty products?

The Growing Nail Varnish Collection...

So hi..

I thought I would do a little nail varnish appreciation post to my collection as it has grown a large amount. Most of it developing over 2013, it's not really a huge collection, but I have bought a few nice cheap nail varnish that I thought I could show you all.

My collection is mostly made up of MUA nail varnishes and a few Primark offerings, as I don't have the money to spend £5+ of nail varnishes the ones I have do me fine!

Firstly I'll show you the MUA portion of my collection!
I have 6 of them in the colours...

 'All Nude'

 'Moody Mink'

'Strawberry Crush'

'Mud Pie'

'Koala Bear'

And 'Plum Noir'


They are all gorgeous colours and for £1 they work quite well and tend to last me a good few days, though it does take 2 sometimes 3 coats for the colour to show but I can live with that! The packaging is also rather pretty, very similar to the Essie nail varnishes I think.

Next are the Primark nail varnishes I have
I bought 2 sets of 4 mini varnishes before which were £2 each and I also have the odd colour from a manicure set  that I reviewed on the blog before!
The odd one out is a muddy grey colour? Honestly I've said before I would know what to call this colour but it is pretty and good for calmer nails all the same.

One set of 4 were a range of red shades

The other set are a range of blue shades

I love both these little sets as I like the lighter and darker options as well as a bit of sparkle thrown in and at £2 a set, meaning 50p a bottle I enjoy them and they are good, they don't tend to last as long as MUA but they manage 3-4 days before chipping, which is good enough to me!

I then have three nail varnishes from 'Miss Sporty' Which I got from Superdrug and although I don't remember the exact prices I'm sure they were £2-3 and actually despite being the most expensive they are the ones I dislike most, I just find the formula a bit goopy and annoying sometimes, though I can just have one coat i find it messy, But I do still use them.
I have a clear varnish.
A bright blue one
and a very pretty aqua colour.

Last in my collection is a more recent buy, I  got it from Body care and It's a technic nail varnish. I picked it up for £1 just to try it out as I was sure I had heard good things about Technic and I was nicely surprised, It's quite a big bottle and the brush is easy to work with, I find you could have one coat but it's better with two, I picked up a midnight blue colour which I find gorgeous!

And that's my nail varnish collection, not very large or very fancy but I really to like what I've got and I don't see much reason to spend a lot of money on nail varnish when I'm fond of Mua already.
Although I do want to try out Barry M and some of the offerings from Models Own...
 Maybe one day I'll treat myself!

We'll talk soon lovelies!
