The Complete a-england Mythicals Collection

Wow, 100 followers on GFC, I would just like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who looks at and takes an interest in my blog.  I know there are so many amazing ones out there so I appreciate each person that stops here.  My thanks are obviously for you all - GFC followers, Facebook likers, Twitter and Bloglovin followers, email subscribers and even just the passers by.

I have had this post planned for a while but wanted to wait until GFC got to 100 to publish it, as anyone who comes to visit Pandora's Nails will know, I love a-england polishes and have shown each of the Mythicals in at least one post already, but I thought for ease of reference it would be good to have them all in the one place..............I also really enjoyed trying them all on at the one time and creating all the different combos.

I will show you today all of the Mythicals alone first (2 coats), then with 1 coat of Morgan Le Fay and again with 1 coat of Merlin.  The Knight was used as a base coat on all polishes, but I decided not to use top coat of any of them to show you just how sparkly they are alone, so the bottle I am holding is the Shield so it wasn't completely left out.

Incase any of you are wondering, I chose the order of the swatches based on the order of the polishes on the a-england website, which is how they are stored in my case too.  I will also link to each polishes individual post using their name incase anyone wants to look further.

First we have King Arthur, Excalibur, Iseult, and Guinevere.


Then with Morgan Le Fay.


Then with Merlin.




With Morgan Le Fay.


With Merlin.


And then we have Camelot, Avalon, Perceval, Galahad and Holy Grail.


With Morgan Le Fay.


With Merlin.


Thank you all for looking once again <3 xxx

Nails Inc Pelham Place with a-england Guinevere............Mattified

This post was done at the request of Maria who commented on yesterdays post saying the mani would look really good Mattified.

I have had my Nails Inc Matte top coat for a few months now and have only used it a few times as I like the idea of Matte but also love really shiny nails so normally can't bear to make a colour matte once I have seen it glossy.

So anyway, here is yesterday Mani with Nails Inc Pelham Place and a-englands Guinevere but with 1 coat of Nails Inc Westminster Bridge Matte Effect Top Coat over it.



What do you think?  Do you prefer this mani Matte or Glossy??

Nails Inc Pelham Place with a-england Guinevere

This mani started out the strangest way, I had an urge to wear baby pink nail polish, which is very unlike me so I was actually surprised that I still had one in my collection, as between swaps and eBay most of my light colours have gone to other homes.  But there must had been a reason that I held onto Nails Inc Pelham Place, I think it was due to the fact it was a very baby pink, but not sheer and I must have thought, one day......

I went to work and received many 'wow, pink nails' comments and was thinking 'yes, this pink is nice, but might need to jazz it up a bit'  This led me to a 'lightbulb' moment of how well Pelham Place would match with a-englands Guinevere.

Which led to ....... my first tape mani...........

This was the first time I had actually tried this and am happy with how it turned out, although the process will need some tweaking I think.

All pictures are with 1 coat of Nails Inc Underground basecoat, 2 coats of Pelham Place, 1 coat of Guinevere and 1 coat of The Shield

Anyways, hope you like and again any comments are appreciated.
