Nails Inc A/W Collection - Layered (including Polish Me Silly, Glitzology, Silly Lily and Serum No5)

I previously shown you the Nails Inc Autumn Winter collection, which is a set of 4 great creme polishes.  But when I see creme I always see laying potential...

So here are all 4 of the Nails Inc A/W polishes layered with a glitter.

Firstly we have Polish Me Silly (formerly Lush Lacquer - which is what is still on my bottle) Snow Globe over Bond Street.

1 - lush lacquer snow globe over nails inc old bond street

Now we have Silly Lily Holy Holo over Oxford Lane.

And lastly we have Serum No5 Happy Special Day over Regent Street.

Nails Inc Polishes can be purchased from the official site in the UK.

Polish Me Silly (formerly Lush Lacquer) can be purchased on Etsy.

I purchased my Glitzology polishes on Etsy but it seems the store no longer exists... which is a shame if she is no longer making polishes as I have some great ones here still to show you!

Silly Lily Polishes are also sold on Etsy

And I got my Serum No5 from a UK store that was opened a few months ago called the Nail Arcade which is no longer around but here is a list of the site for their current stockists.

Thanks for looking and I would love to hear what your favourite of these combos are!

But anyway, here is Fated Price which is the last I have to show you from the Burne-Jones Dream collection.

Fated Price is a grey holo which has an olive hint in certain lights.  This is 1 coat of the Knight, 2 of the polish and 1 of the Shield.

Color Club Wicker Park, Darling Diva Seduction and Different Dimension Mystified

I have for you today 3 great polishes I used in a layering.

Now the first was a great surprise to me, a baby pink that I loved when on.

Color Club is a brand I actually have a few sets of but have never actually tried yet, but will be soon as this pink creme was great to apply.

Here is 1 coat of the Knight and 2 of the polish and without topcoat I'm sure.

1 color club wicker park (1)

1 color club wicker park (2)

I then topped the above polish with another new to me brand called Darling Diva, this is Seduction which is pink/gold shimmery polish with a holo effect which may be more noticeable when over a dark colour but I loved how this combo looked when wearing it.

This is the above with 1 coat of Seduction and again I don't think a topcoat was used.

I then decided to just go all out with the layers and add some glitter, in the form of a Different Dimension polish called Mystified which is made up of pink, gold, brown and lavender glitters in a clear base.

This is the above with 1 coat of Mystified and 1 of the Shield.

Now I was very happy with the end up of this one, even with all the pink and I hope you like it too.

All of these polishes can be purchased from Llarowe.

Colors by Llarowe Dirty Diana

I have for you all today another polish from the Colors by Llarowe Michael Jackson collection.  This one is Dirty Diana.

Dirty Diana is a very holo magenta polish.  Application was great and coverage was good even with just one coat.

Here is 1 coat of the Knight, 2 of the polish and 1 of the Shield.

Now if the colour is not enough to make you want the polish, I have one last picture to show you.

This is Dirty Diana after 1 week of wear, now my average week includes nothing too heavy but I am typing all day with work, and then general housework etc etc and there was not a chip in sight, and barely even any tip wear.

I am again so impressed with Colors by Llarowe, I have a couple more here to wear and show you and I am really looking forward to doing so.
 
Colors by Llarowe are super popular and do sell out quickly so keep an eye on the Llarowe Facebook and official site for restock information.

Different Dimension Merry Go Round

Here today for you all is a polish from a brand that is new to me, Different Dimension and this polish is called Merry Go Round.

Merry Go Round is blue, pink black and silver glitters in a white base.  The description on the site advises best to wear over white so I may try that but I also liked how it looked alone.

Now unfortunately I didn't realise it was a glow in the dark polish until after I had worn so there are no pictures of that, it but that is a great little thing to look forward to next time.

So here is 1 coat of the Knight, 2 of the polish and 1 of the Shield.

Cheeky Polish Gold Digger and Crowstoes Chess!...You Dog

I have firstly a polish called Gold Digger from a new brand called Cheeky.

Gold Digger is unsurprisingly, a gold polish, with a foil finish.  Application was great and the brush is wide so makes application easy. Coverage was also obtained in 2 coats.

So here is 1 coat of the Knight, 2 of the polish and 1 of the Shield.

I had recently managed to pick up Chess!...You Dog from the always great Crowstoes.

Chess is a mix of blue glitters in a clear base - including blue glitter circles!  Now I know quite a few indie polishes now have these but this was my first to try with them and I love circle glitters now.  There are also little black diamonds in there for good measure too.  As usual with these polishes getting the glitter out of the bottle was no problem at all.

This is 1 coat over the above mani with another coat of the Shield.

I was very happy with how these polishes looked together and I hope you are too.

Cheeky Polishes can be purchased from the official site or Superdrug.

Now I normally get my Crowstoes from Llarowe but this one I picked up from the new UK based indie store Rainbow Connection.
