Straya (Australia) Day and why I will never be a nail artist...

This will be short and sweet because it's 1am and i'm in bed, I also have an eye on Come Dine With Me. Do you know how much I love Come Dine With Me? no? well I do! 

So today is Australia Day.. HAPPY AUSTRALIA DAY! 

I love the chance to theme my nails so I went with a green and gold (notice how the gold in green and gold is always yellow and never gold?). I also decided to try and use my dotting tool (DOTTING TOOOOOOOL!) which was an absolute failure as you'll see below! Thank god I only decided to do it on the accent nails... nail fail indeed.

I used Butter London Cheeky Chops for the yellow, love the name and love Butter London but this isn't my favourite of polish's but it was the yellow shade I was after for this particular mani. The green is Ulta 3 Tahitian Lime, really pretty and nice to work with but you need to do around 3 coats because it's quite sheer.

Again...nail fail ahead beware!



Wow...no words!

How is everyone spending their Australia Day? I have a family tradition of listening to the Triple J Hottest 100 and doing a bit of a competition based on how the songs we voted for went. I'm hoping to vlog this but knowing me i'll forget to film all day, you don't realise how often this happens!

Subject change over....Nothing to see here...Bye!

Butter London polished retail for RRP $22.00AUD and can be purchased online from Adore Beauty. Bit of a tip though, they regularly come up on the deal websites like OzSale, BrandsExclusive etc for around $10 a bottle.

Ulta3 retails for RRP $2.50AUD and can be purchased at selected pharmacies and there is also a small range stocked at Target.

NOTW - Butter London Fash Pack & MAC Bad Fairy

Here are this weeks nail of the weeks. I only put MAC Bad Fairy on my nails today but I had to share it with you guys so it made it into the week (even if it's been a little over a week).

First up is my very first Butter London polish, this was also a freebie with this months Harpers Bazaar magazine. Finally a great magazine GWP that isn't in a dodgy colour. This is one of those mushroomey, taupey colours that I loooooove. It has a little difference with a bit of a gold shimmer in it (I've tried to capture that it in the picture of the bottle). I think the magazine is only out for a few more weeks so get onto it! It also comes in a sheer pink as well, so why not get both, it's a bargain!

The colour is called Fash Pack, if you want to get your hands on some Butter London polishes but don't want Harpers or don't like the colours you can buy them online in Australia from Honey Honey and they retail on there for $22AUD. I've also seen them in various chemists as well. Check out my little watermark on my photos, i've decided to not be as lazy this week!





My 2nd polish this week and the one I applied today is from the new MAC Venomous Villans collection. Yep I went on the day it was released in Australia and picked up this bad boy (actually it'd more likely be a bad girl...) or BAD FAIRY!

This is an amazing duochrome colour with flecks of red, orange, pink, gold and cupcakes... actually no cupcakes but it may as well have due to it's awesomeness! This is my first duochrome and I see this could become quite the addiction...like glitter!

If you like this colour, get onto it quick because this is limited edition and from what i've heard has been selling well! It retails here for $22AUD which yes is pricey, but it's kind of too amazing to not get.

I tried to get this in a few different lights so you can see as many colours as possible...this was hard but I think i've achieved it!
