NOTD #2 | Essie Naughty Nautical

When it comes to my nails I've probably said it before but I am really lazy. When I dug this mini nail varnish up from my London Fashion Weekend goody bag I just couldn't resist putting it on. I don't own any Essie nail varnishes (because of my lack of enthusiasm when it comes to nail painting) but after putting this on I wondered why the heck not? 

Even with the really mini bottle it still had a wide brush making it so easy to apply, I also love the consistency. The second picture definitely shows the true colour, it's quite a greeny teal with very very small glitters in it. Th full size bottle of Naughty Nautical (as this is a sample) is about £7.50 and although I got this free I think it's definitely worth the price!

NOTD & REVIEW | Caramel Cupcake

I was in Sainsbury's the other day to get some Ben & Jerry's (because a day can just become 1000 times better with ice cream, don't deny it), anyway as I was on my way to pay I walked past this nail varnish in the mini Rimmel section and decided it would be a good addition to my nail varnishes.

This nail varnish is the perfect nude (my rubbish iPhone 4 camera does it no justice (perks of a broken camera charger (too many brackets (kasope stop)))) with a great consistency! It' s in the shade 500 Caramel Cupcake from Rimmel's 60 second nail polish range. The polishes in this range are meant to dry in 60 seconds and only need one coat. For the finish above I applied two coats but you could definitely get away with only one, although I am not sure about whether it really does dry in only 60 seconds (Rimmel may be telling fibs *tut* *tut*) nevertheless is dries uber fast. The brush is the perfect shape for a smooth application and for £3.69 you can't go wrong!
