NOTD - Models Own Pink Punch

Today I am sporting one of my Favourite shades, I love Bright, Neon Corals & this one is super bright & makes me feel all Summery & Happy, I woke up this morning with the Sun streaming through my blinds, so decided to paint my nails as I had a spare 5 mins whilst the baby slept!

It is the most stunning Neon Coral, I've seen... I also love Orly's Passion fruit & Models Own Hedonist...

Hope you've all had a great day!

Models Own Blueberry Muffin

Models Own are one of my favourite brands of nail polish, They are always bang on trend & bringing out the latests colours or textures at a fantastic price, at £5 you can't really complain, Especially when they apply like a dream & last a good 3 days on me, I have paid for more expensive brands *cough* Essie *cough* that have chipped within a day! I don't know about you, but I love wearing nail polish on my nails, but hate the removing & reapplying trauma - once is week is more than enough for me!

This Models own in Blueberry* applies easily i needed 2 coats for a truely opaque look, it reminds me of another favourite shade utopia but this is more blue... I couldn't really smell a scent when I was applying it but once dried I found the scent to be quite strong - when I smelt my nail?!..  it smells lovely..very fruity! My little girl loved the concept. Also a perfect shade or Spring/Summer... 

As usual I got a good 3 days until I managed to chip a nail but I was scrubbing my Bathroom - very glamorous I know but somebody has to do it!

There are 5 Gorgeous shades to choose from in this Collection.

What's your favourite  Models Own Shade?

NOTD Models Own Grey Day

Model's Own "Grey Day" is a grey cream. Grey Day has the most unbelievable shine and gloss to it. I applied two coats Wow! Grey Day has the most beautiful mirror-gloss like effect. the colour  looks so sophisticated.

Very pretty on your nails & lasts a good few days before chipping! I also like to add glitter top coat or a bright pink accent nail!

Are you into grey?

NOTD Models Own Emerald Black

Today i am wearing Models Own Emerald Black, I really like this colour as it looks just like any old dark polish until the light hits it & then you get a stunning greeny turquoise shimmer running through your nail.

It is perfect for these winter months, Emerald Black,is described as a bold blackened midnight peacock. Also looks stunning with a glitter top coat for an extra bit of sparkle!

What colour will you be wearing this Christmas?

NOTD Models Own Disco Mix

I'm such a huge fan of Models Own polishes, there is such an enormous variety of not just colours, they have a wide selection of chrome finish, shimmers, glitters, metals, crackle and of course, all the colours you need for a perfect french manicure.

This colour is just stunning,  With flecks of sparkly blue, purple and pink, it looks amazing when the light hits your nails, it looks incredible, it can also be worn over the top of so many different colours to add a bit of bling.

 

It's perfect for adding a touch of sparkle to a plain outfit or a little black dress! 

It also dries extremely quickly, I love the look of Glitter varnish, However I'm sometimes a little hesitant about buying it, purely because it is such a hassle to remove. But I love this & would highly recommend this shade if you're into glitter!

Are you a Glitter lover?

NOTD Models Own Purple Mystique

Purple Mystique is  a rich smokey aubergine duo chrome magenta colour with small glitter that is in several colours. Blue/green, purple/pinkish etc.

Very pretty and great for this time of year!

What's your favourite varnish at the moment?

NOTD Models Own Purple Passion.

I first saw pictures of this on Google and they all looked so bright & sort of Neon, so was a bit surprised when i opened my Package with my order as it is darker Than i expected.

It’s a lovely rich blue shade of purple that manages to have a lot of red in it, but still comes out on the cool side. I really do think that this would be flattering on anyone and everyone.

I don't own many purples as i'm more of a pink or coral girl, but i do like this for Autumn as it still has a bit of brightness to it.

Can you recommend any purple nail varnishes?
 

NOTD Models Own Pastel Pink

I'm clinging on to summer with both hands, i much prefer lighter nail colours in Pinks & Corals, so i thought i would chance this little beauty!

Models Own Pastel Pink is a gorgeous creamy baby pink, it goes great with most skin tones & i get comments every time i wear it.

I am really enjoying Models Own at the moment, they have great colour ranges & also have pretty good lasting power :)

This will be my last outing until next Spring, i will be wearing my Autumn/Winter polishes from this weekend!

Can't wait to wear all the Glitters in the party season :)

Do you have a colour preference for nail polish?

NOTD Models Own Pink Blush

Today i am travelling down to Birmingham with my Husband, we are going to do some ** Disclaimer i am going to mention the C word ** Christmas shopping & a night away, my little girl is being packed up & shipped off to her Grandparents for the night.

I decided that i wanted to have some bright nails to brighten up these dark mornings & Evenings we are having!

So i slapped on Models Own Pink Blush!

It is such a lovely colour its not too bright, a great warm Pink creme colour that can be worn anytime or the year!!

I look these Polishes they have great lasting power & have a fantastic range of shades!

**Look out for their 50% sales they have a few times a year, i was able to pick up quite a few in their last one, but was a bit miffed i missed out on Bubblegum pink as it sold out super fast :(

NOTD Models Own Utopia

Today i am wearing the Gorgeous Utopia by Models Own.

This colour is Stunning a very simple Creamy Grey with a lilac/pink look to it, it is hard to describe but its a understated colour that looks amazing on.

It must be L❤ve............Orly Passionfruit

I had been looking for the perfect Neon Coral not too red, orange or pink.. The search had been going on a good few months when i discovered Orly, i had not really heard of this brand before, it was always Opi or Essie so i decided try a couple & boy have i been missing out!!!

They apply so smoothly are are very opaque so usually cover in one coat, i think i have found a brand i am going to be spending quite a bit of money with - i have found a site online called Nailtopia who stock lots of different brands & nail products and are currently selling Orly Mani Mini's for £3.36 with free delivery if you spend over £10?

Anyway back to my perfect Neon Coral! ❤

Have you tried Orly, do you know of any other brands worth trying?

Models Own Neon Coral

I’m sure you have all seen this new collection? 

Hedonist is part of a 5 piece collaboration between Models Own and 

Hed Kandi who are infamous on the music/club scene.

The polishes in the collection are not for the faint hearted as are either brights, 

neons or glitters.

Hedonist is definately vivid a neon Coral 

I didn't think it would be as vibrant once applied compared to in the bottle, but I 
was very mistaken! This is an amazing neon colour. 

As with Beach Party i found it was a little tricky to apply. The first coat was 
fairly streaky, But again after  another thin coat it evened out & the colour was 
super opaque.
It does however dry semi-matte so you may want to apply a top coat?

This is most definately a summer colour & would look great on both fingers & toes! (i love the colour so much i'd wear it year round!)

Hedonist  in my opinion suits all skin types, but would look amazing with a tan! 

Models Own polishes are brilliant quality and great value too - 14ml for £5, 

available at Boots and the Models own website.

I also bought Beach Party from the collection which is a Neon Orange❤ 

Which Hed Kandi polishes did you buy? What do you think to Hedonist?
