Nail Polish Crazy

I have sinned once again, but this time I have a good excuse. This massive nail polish haul was an anniversary gift from the boyfriend so its justified ;)
I've been wanting to get my hands on a few of the new collections and he thought that would make a perfect gift. I couldn't say no could I? So I placed an order with beautyzone2007 . I have always purchased the bulk of my nail polishes from her and never had any issues. I do have to mention that My Essie nail polish in Sew Psyched did arrive broken with this order. But a quick email to her and she said she would send me a replacement asap. Also the shipping for this order took literally 5 days.AMAZING!!
I also had to pick up 2 SportsGirl nail polishes when I was browsing through the store, cause i'm a nail junkie like that!

Are We There Yet, Hot And Spicy, Mod About You

Trendsetter, Life Preserver, Westside Warrior, Brownstone

Ink, Bright Now, Too Too Hot, Carry On, Meet Me At Sunset
Can you tell I seem to have an obsession with coral colours;)

What have you been hauling lately?

NOTD- Sally Hansen First Blush & China Glaze Afterglow

For those of you in Sydney you know that recently we have had CRAP-TASTIC weather ( I had to emphasize that) over the past week and i needed a perk me up. I'm already swamped with uni test and assignments so having crappy weather on top of that did not help. I needed a perk me up and that came in the form of pink nail polish.

Sally Hansen Hard as Nails Xtreme Wear in First Blush & China Glaze Afterglow
First Blush applied a little streaky and needed 3 coats to be opaque. Afterglow is a sheer polish with a pretty pinky purple sheen, perfect as a top coat.


Pretty pinks always make me feel happy and ultra girly. What's your beauty perk me up?

Winter Nail Polish Picks

I love nail polishes, actually i'm a little bit obsessed. So i thought I would share my love/obsession of these gorgeous nail polishes with you and up a post on my top winter picks. 

Now there is no rule when it comes to what colour nails you have on at different seasons. If you feel like rocking a bright yellow polish in winter, you should! However these are a few colours that I personally think would look gorgeous in the winter, not saying I wont use them anytime else. 

China Glaze-Below Deck, Zoya-Caitlin, Milani-Teddy Bare, Barry M-Bright Purple, Sally Hansen- Mocha Mix


CG Below Deck- love in a bottle..a gorgeous taupe brown that can pull purple in some lights...simply gorgeous.


Zoya Caitlin -  a periwinkle blue with grey undertones, I love these sort of colours anytime of the year actually.


Milani Teddy Bare - this is apparently a dupe to Chanel Particuliere.  A browny grey polish, makes me feel very mature when i have this on.


Barry M Bright Purple- these babies are so inexpensive and extremely pigmented, all you need is 1 coat and your done..highly recommend Barry M nail paints. This gives a nice pop of color and looks gorgeous on short nails. 


Sally Hansen Mocha Mix - this color reminds me of a cup of hot cocoa and some marshmallows..*i'm nuts* ..i guess it screams winter to me.


What are your winter nail picks?

Play on Pastels

So as mentioned in my previous blog post, I've been on a nail polish kick and to justify all my purchases I have decided to paint my nails at least every other day.Since I'm on study break..I guess I have the time to get it done (although I should be cramming).
I decided on some pastely colours. I know it's winter here in Australia (unfortunately) but I can't help it...I love these colours they're just so pretty. I used 2 China Glaze nail polishes, Something Sweet as the base coat and Agent Lavender for the tips. They're not very straight or even but I guess I was going for the "I dipped my fingers in another colour effect".

China Glaze: Agent Lavender

China Glaze: Something Sweet, Agent Lavender

China Glaze is by far my favourite nail polish brand and  it's acsessible to me. I  purchase most of mine from www.crushcosmetics.com.au and some from two different ebay sellers r93 and beautyzone2007. They're opaque, come in a wide range of colours and minimal chipping so thumbs up from me.

So ladies ...anyone if you're reading..whats on your nails at the moment?

Confession Time!!

Confession....I am obsessed I mean OBSESSED with nail polish at the moment. I'm sure there's been a point when your obsessed with one beauty product and you just can't get enough of it. Well for me it's nail polish at the moment...I say this because I know eventually I will get over it and my obsession will shift to something else...typical Priyanka behaviour I say.
So back to my obsession ...I picked up several, ok maybe more than several polishes online and am so ecstatic about them that I had to share, so here goes

Zoya: Jules,Marley,Gemma OPI: Not Like the Movies

Zoya: Dove,Caitlin,Danii
China Glaze: Pelican Gray, Sea Spray, Below Deck
China Glaze: Agent Lavender, Recycle and Something Sweet
