Feb Nail of the Month & 50 Followers!!

Hi all!

I have reached 50 followers!!!!!! Yay!! :-) I'm so happy because I never thought I would get to 5 let alone 50, and I know everyone says this, but it's true! I want to say a massive thank you to every single person who has followed, read or even liked my blog, it means so much, so thank you all once again. And I will shortly be doing a mini-giveaway so keep an eye out for that!!

Back to the post, so last month I strayed away from my usual colourful nails and although I love different fun colours and nail art I took it down a notch when I made a new nude discovery! lol







I used No.7 Stay Perfect nail polish in 'So Simple' and then on top of that I applied a glitter top coat from Boots 17 which costs £3.99 (here). The No.7 polish costs £7 but I always wait till they do the £5 vouchers otherwise it costs way too much. Boots are currently doing these vouchers so if you like it you can get it for £2!

The downside to the No.7 polish is that its quite sheer and streaky and it took 3 coats to get it opaque, but I just think it's the perfect nude shade! It would also look great as a manicure colour with some french tips. And my nails stayed perfect for 5 days and then I got a chip on just 1 nail, and on my brittle flaky nails that's a miracle! lol

I really do love the simplicity of this look, and the hint of glitter takes it from being boring to being fun, well I think so anyway! ;-)

What do you think? Let me know in the comments below.

  1. This is such a lovely combo! I already have the 17 glitter top coat and I am very tempted to go and get the No.7 'So Simple' polish now as this look is perfect for work and play :) x
