Fabulous Nails #46

Hi everyone! Today's nail look is one of my all-time favourites, and it features a top coat I picked up in my Lips and Nails haul HERE...

This is Maybelline Color Show Polka Dots (in black and white) layered over Models Own Apple Pie (one of their scented pastels). I LOVE it! Such a pretty, simple look for the summer!

I got plenty of compliments on my nails when I was wearing this, but the best part for me was the lasting power! Sometimes I find using a 'novelty' top coat like this one can leave my nails dry and prone to flaking off in large chunks but this stayed put and pristine for three days before any chips started to appear. It is a bit of a pain to remove (like most pretty top coats), but it's not impossible and if you do it while something interesting's on the telly you won't even notice!

You can buy Maybelline Color Show Polka Dots instore from Boots or Superdrug for £2.99, and the Models Own Apple Pie polish is £5 HERE.

What do you think of the Maybelline top coat? Are you a fan of pastels for summer?

Fabulous Nails #40 feat. Models Own Blueberry Pie

TGIF! It's been a lonng and busy week for me, despite it only being 4 days long. Bring on the weekend! Today's polish is one that has been all over the blogosphere - it's Models Own Blueberry Pie.

This is one of the new Models Own scented Fruit Pastel polishes. I opted for this shade as it's a milky lilac blue which is unlike anything else I own. I also really love the smell/taste of blueberries so a gorgeous colour scented with blueberries seemed ideal!

I absolutely adore this colour, it's so perfect for Spring and despite being a pale gal I don't look washed out wearing it. The scent was noticeable and lingered on my nails for a day or two, but it's really the colour that would make me encourage others to try this. It did require three coats, but barely chipped in the 4 days I had it on, and I received a number of compliments whilst wearing it. You can purchase the Fruit Pastel collection from Models Own HERE, £5 per polish.

What do you think of the Models Own scented polishes? Have you tried any yet?
