Paul & Joe Kitten Claws (Spring 2012 Collection)

Today I have for you a fairly strange occurrence for me, a neutral polish, a palette cleanser you could call it.

This polish is called Kitten Claws and is from the Paul & Joe Spring 2012 collection.  There are 3 polishes in this collection and also a few other make up products based around the theme of Cats.

This theme is based around the designer, Sophie Albou's, love of cats so all of the products and names, are feline based.  The products are also a celebration of Paul & Joe's 10th Anniversary.  If you go to the Paul & Joe site here and click on the link to the Spring 2012 collection you will be able to see images of the other products. The lipsticks and blusher sticks are so cute and I may even be afraid to use them if I had them and ruin the pretty kitties.

Anyway, here is the polish I have for you, it is a soft neutral pink.  This was the first Paul & Joe nail polish I had tried, I was very pleased with the application, it was opaque in 2 smooth coats.  I was also surprised to find that once the polish has been painted on, it has a slight a floral scent to it.

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





I am not really a big fan of neutral type polishes on me, or pinks really for that matter, but this is a pretty polish but I think next time I wear it I might try to spice it up with some holo or glitter, but that is probably just me, for anyone that likes this kind of colour I imagine this would be just fine on its own.

Oh and one last thing, look at the cute box the polish comes in.......


Some items from the collection can be bought from ASOS but as far as I can tell the full collection is Limited Edition and can only be purchased from stores in London (Fenwick and Harrods).

This product was sent to me for review.

Ozotic 520 and a-england Lancelot

I want to start this post by saying a big thank you to you all for your kind words and well wishes, it has meant so much to me that you cared enough to leave even a few sweet words.  I still have a lot going on and won't be back 'full time' for a little while yet but I had some pretties already photographed and sitting in my archive that I thought I would take a minute to show you.

I am still not up for saying a lot but I think this pretty multichrome from Llarowe speaks for itself.  Here is 2 coats of Ozotic 520 over a-england Lancelot.

I'm sorry.....

I am so sorry to have to let you all down like this, but I need to take a little time away from the blog etc, it may just be a few days or so, but possibly longer.  I have some personal issues going on that need my attention and I have to let them be my priority just now.

I hope you all understand and I will be back as soon as I can.

Lynnderella Love Potion No99 and a-england Guinevere

Happy New Year everyone!!  Hope you had a great time!

I wanted to start this post by saying Thank You to you all for your support in 2011, it has been great to hear positive comments and hear your opinions on the pretties I show you.  I have met so many great people through blogging who are very special to me and won't go through the whole naming names things as I would be here all night, but you know who you all are.

Further to that, 2011 ended on a great note for my blog, I am probably quite bad at noticing and acknowledging numbers on here but I had seen recently my total page views was in the 19k range and had decided it would be nice to get to 20k for the new year, I didn't share this with anyone as I didn't want people to visit just to get the views up.  So the count down to 20k was more exciting to me than the one to the bells, haha, and just as midnight came, I hit 20,002 pageviews, so thank you all <3 <3

Anyway, today (a bit later than usual so I apologise for that) I have for you another lovely Lynnderella polish from the even lovelier Llarowe.

Here is Love Potion No99, which as far as I can tell is also from the Halloween collection and is described here:

Purple, violet and fuchsia hexagons and squares in a cool violet base. Multiple sizes and violet holographic micro glitter. 

Again as this has a coloured base, it could be worn alone, but I decided to layer it with a-england Guinevere.  As the Love Potion No99 base is quite purple, you can't really see the colour of Guinevere at all, but I feel it provided a good base for this combo.

Here is 1 coat of the Knight, 1 of Guinevere, 2 of Love Potion No99 and 1 of the Shield.






Thanks for looking <3 xx
