Nail Of The Day – Sally Hansen Sonic Bloom & Gosh Cracked Nail Lacquer 04 Gold (Nail Fail)

Hi there! Today’s post is a Nail Of The Day post. And it’s also a Nail Fail.

For this mani I painted my nails with Sally Hansen Sonic Bloom (1 coat). This polish is a true one-coater. It’s amazing!

The crackle polish I used is Gosh Cracked Nail Lacquer 04 Gold. This crackle polish is awful! I applied it well over an hour after I had applied the base colour.

The base colour was 100% dry. However, the crackle polish still managed to somehow suck some of the base colour off of my nails, leaving my nails with “bald spots”. I’m sure you can tell that I was not impressed!

I’m not going to use this crackle top coat again. I have another one from the same brand, but I’m not really looking forward to giving that one a try!

Nail Of The Day – Gosh 549 Holographic Hero & Stamping With Pueen 72

Hi there! Today’s post is another nail post.

I didn’t know what to do with my nails the other day (What else is new…?!).

I wasn’t in the mood for bold colours, pastels or glitter. So in the end I decided to paint my nails with Gosh 549 Holographic Hero (2 coats).

I really like this polish. It dries quickly and it looks very pretty.

Sure, it would look even prettier on a sunny day, but it’s winter, and (unfortunately) there’s nothing I can do about the weather.

And I didn’t have the time or energy to think up a complicated mani, so I went for a super easy stamping mani.

The floral images are from Pueen’s 72 plate (which is part of Pueen’s Stamping Buffet collection). And the black polish I stamped with is Revlon Colorstay 270 Stiletto.

I think this mani turned out OK. Do you agree? Feel free to get in touch. And thanks for stopping by! 🙂

Nail Of The Day – Gosh 549 Holographic Hero & Stamping with Pueen 55

Hi there! I’ve been sporting really boring manis for the past week. Nothing worth mentioning.

And, of course, I got bored of those plain manis. So I grabbed a holo polish, Gosh 549 Holographic Hero, and my stamping kit.

I applied two coats of Holographic Hero. The polish dried quickly and was opaque in two coats. It’s not the strongest holo polish out there, but I only paid £1.99 for it, so I won’t complain.

Then I chose a stamping plate – Pueen 55 from Pueen’s Stamping Buffet. I opted for the leafy image and stamped it on with Revlon Colorstay Stiletto. I think this mani turned out alright. What do you think? 🙂
