Nails of the Week! Gold, glitter and violet nails!

This week has been a bit of a down week for me so I've been painting my nails lots to make me feel happier. I find painting my nails to be pretty therapeutic and I love waking up with pretty nails.

I started off last Saturday with O.P.I Glitzerland. My bf and I were going out to the city and I wanted something a bit more out there. I've loved Glitzerland so far and it is great when done on all nails. Below is two thin coats.


On Monday I wanted something different but didn't want to take Glitzerland off just yet so I added a bit of sparkle with Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear in Strobe Light. This is another I will most likely do when going out.



By Wednesday I was looking for something a bit for subdued yet still colourful. I decided to try another one of the Sally Hansen nail polishes my Mum and Dad brought back from America. The colour below is Lively Lilac in two coats. It is a super smooth polish that has a pearlised sheen to it. It also dries super quick.



Last but not least is a super glittery nail I've been wanting to try. I'm on holidays from work for a week so don't need to worry about my nail polish chipping quickly in the pool. This is Sally Hansen Diamond Strength in Wedding Crasher. I applied four thin coats as I wanted a really strong glitter coverage. It was quite nice by two coats too though if you can't be bothered with so many coats!


Which is your favourite?

  1. Really love all these colours, especially Wedding Crasher..did you use a base colour underneath it or just the glitter polish? Looks amazing!

    1. No base colour underneath! Next time I might as it did take four coats to get it to this! Love the sparkle though :)

  2. Oh Glitzerland is beautiful, what a perfect gold colour! Lively lilac is lovely too - a really different shade of purple!
