NOTD - Bluebells & Snowflakes!

Ello ello beautiful creatures! Hope you're all having a good week so far my lovelies!

I thought that the manicure I have for you today was rather fitting in with the current state of weather conditions so figured twas the perfect time to share with you pretties...Bluebells & Snowflakes!

Before I get on to the complete flakie gorgeousness that is that topcoat, I started off with two coats of Nails Inc Bluebell as my base colour, which was one out of a collection of three polish freebies from InStyle magazine a while back. Don't cha just love those? ;) I've already blogged the stunning Power Pink, another one of the three polishes, which I just fell in love with so was excited to see how Bluebell would fare!

 

Bluebell is a lovely, cool blue toned lilac/violet crème pastel which, as is usual with most of my Nails Inc polishes, applied beautifully, I was worried it would be thick & gloopy, but didn't find that to be the case at all! This here is two coats.

Once Bluebell was nicely dry, I then applied on top this wonderfully dazzling topcoat courtesy of Models Own which goes by the name of Snowflake & is packed with these stunning holographic glitter shards in a clear base, so puuuuuurdy!

I absolutely LOVE flakie polishes, just that little bit different from your ordinary glitter but still achieving a stunning effect! Snowflake is from Models Own Wonderland collection & this was two coats applied. I found that due to the shape of the shards & my nail beds, one or two stray bits did stick out a tad, but this was easily sorted out by a coat or two of topcoat, giving a nice smooth finish :) 

 

Snowflake is definitely up there with my favourite topcoats at the moment, I can just imagine it goes pretty much perfectly with everything! Models Own polishes retail for £5 and are available in Boots & online. Hope you liked the NOTD dolls!

Thanks as always for reading! Do you own Models Own Snowflake?

Lotsa love to ya!
