NOTD Fail: Models Own Bluebelle

I didn't actually get as far as to take proper pictures of this, I absolutely adore this polish but I have discovered that you have to apply it very thinly, very slowly and very neatly!

I started out okay:

But then this happened:

I think, even though the polish seemed dry when I added another coat, it wasnt. And as a result it just peeled off. I know all glitter polishes can be messier than normal ones, and I am crap at getting my nail polish neat so glitter may not have been the best choice, but I had to try it anyway! Because I'm pretty bad at being neat, I tend to do my best and then use nail polish remover around the edges, something which is almost impossible with glitter polish!

So I ended up like this:

Pretty much a total fail. I think I need a whole lot more practice before I attempt glitter polish again! How do you all get your glitter polish to work for you?

Hey, Hey, Hey Mr. Postman

On Saturday the postman bought me a present :) my first ever Models Own goodies! I have to say I'm really impressed with the deals Models Own offer onlline. Since it was my first purchase I recieved a nail file and finisher free of charge, they do savings deals for buying 3 and 5 nail polishes at a time AND postage is free! Plus I am so impressed with the quality of the presentation, packaging and products :)

So here's the ultra-cute packaging my delivery note was in a little black envelope, that and the purple tissue paper are those extra little touches that make you smile :D

And here are my little presents to myself!

My free Nail File and Finisher

 Lemon Meringue, Lilac Dream, Orange Sherbert, Top Turquoise and Bluebelle

Being me I forgot to take pictures out of the bubble wrap! But I'll be painting my nails over the next few weeks with these and trying them out, I've used one so far, so I'll post my swatch pictures asap :) The Nail File and Finisher works like a dream though!
