I thought I might as well group all my relatively tame/sheer polishes together that I could get away with at school. Some of these are generic randomers but others are ones that weren't discontinued in the 90's...haha :P
I have nine polishes that I can choose between for Mondays/Wednesdays, when my nails are likely to be checked.

Without flash. The polishes are, from left to right:
Avon "Minimalistic Peach"
Generic Peachy colour :P
Generic Pearl
Nails Inc "Sloane Mews"
Rimmel "Lycra Wear"
From thumb to little finger:
Avon "Minimalistic Peach"
Generic Peachy colour :P
Generic Pearl
Nails Inc "Sloane Mews"
Rimmel "Lycra Wear"
I'm not too keen on the peach colour on the index finger. It shows up as fine gold microshimmer and is the most noticible out of all the polishes. I might use it for frankening or something. The Generic Pearl, I quite like. (I did one coat of everything) Sloane Mews is pratically a clear polish but I like to layer one of the Boots polishes over it to give it some kick. Rimmel Lycra Wear is one of my favourite gold glitters. It's buildable, and the glitter is so fine and shimmery it goes wild in the sunlight.
Left to right - Generic Silver Glitter, Boots Glitter Babes in Clear, Confetti and Glitter.
From Right to Left (just to keep you on your toes, aha)
Generic Silver Glitter,
Boots Glitter Babes in:
Clear,
Confetti
Glitter.
Confetti just sucks as a polish. It's so hard to pick up any of the hexagonal glitter and when you manage, it just falls off after about twenty minutes or so. However, what I like about Confetti and Glitter is that they tint your nails a slightly, barely noticable pink colour which really makes Sloane Mews pop. The Clear has long strands of bar glitter in them. You usually end up with about four or so on each nail if you make a special effort to get it on. Not bad, I guess. Glitter and the Generic Silver are the most noticable, in my opinion. The glitter in the Generic Silver is larger, though, and a uniform silver, whearas in the Boots Glitter, the glitter is smaller and many different colours. Anyway, I'll choose one of these lucky polishes to wear to school tommorow. Joy, eh?
Love,
September Lena

uggghhh, school, full of nail polish hating teachers....I'm glad there's almost a month left for my school to open!
ReplyDeleteIn my previous school, our principal was so cool, she didn't mind the students wearing nail polish. & when she saw nail art on my nails, she asked me to do it for her =)))
But now in a new city, new school, I dunno how the teachers will react to nail polish :L Blah...
Tell me about it, right? I go to a Catholic School so they're mega strict on uniform/piercings/nails - I bought the uniform, I'll wear it how I want! Lol :P
ReplyDeleteA month left? A MONTH? You make me feel physically sick, Rhea. I am so jealous. We got two weeks break for the Easter holidays, yeah, and we went back last week. And we have tests and other fun :( :P Seriously, your principal sounds so cool. Shame that ours is male...and a complete polish hater! :P I hope that your new school is just as cool though :)
yup, I hope so too :P
