So I had a ton of Boot's points to use so I though why not treat myself to some really nice nail polishes and these are the ones I picked up- Model's Own Pro (found in most big Boot's stores) in Kiss My Brass, Come to Bed Red and Jack's Black. I thought they made quite a good group to get as the colour all interact with each other quite well.
I thought I would give the reverse mani a go- at least I think that's what it's called. Correct me if I'm wrong. I painted a black undercoat first and then with the sticky bit of a post it note fashioned myself a guide for the gold moon. However my sister pointed out to me that it probably would have been a lot easier to do the gold first and then cut out a half circle, stick it on the nail and then paint the black, which makes a lot more sense but oh well! I'm quite pleased with how it's turned out. It's still a bit messy around the edges but that'll come off in due time. And I've already chipped one nail. Typical.

I'm off back to uni tomorrow so I've been packing and then packing some more. 
Trying to pack my wardrobe is not an easy task. I may have to sit on my suitcase to do it up.
Excited to be going back though.
Have a good day!

NOTD








Now I have to admit I'm not much of a nail varnish person. I own about 6 colours in total but a while back, I treated myself to 3 MUA nail polishes and this ModelsOwn Pro one. It's aptly named pinky grey but I think it has far more of a lilac undertone and for a nail varnish, it actually smells quite nice which is rather unusual.

For some reason, Blogger throws a fit occasionally with my images and even though the top image is landscape when viewing it on my computer, Blogger puts it in as portrait and I don't quite know why. If anyone can shed some light on this, please tell me and I will be v grateful!

Anyway, I'm off to do some Spanish revision- joy of joys.
Have a nice day!
