Part of the #CBBNov challenge is a prompt for poppies. The prompt was for yesterday, but it feels right posting it today. I originally tried to stamp a poppy-like design onto my nails. I didn’t have a perfect stamp so the closest I had was this image from the Pueen Nature Lover 02 plate. Close […]

Avon Mark. Rebel Luxe Fragrance Review & Nail Art
The latest fragrance from Mark. by Avon is Rebel Luxe. Part edgy, part opulent. Rebel Luxe is chic blend of irresistible dark plum, sophisticated baccarat rose and mysterious patchouli. This smells a lot like a perfume I have used before, but I can’t think which one it is. The notes they describe it with are definitely […]
A England Tennyson’s Romance Collection Swatches and Review
You can never have enough holo in your life and this stunning new collection from A England just screams buy me. The Tennyson’s Romance collection includes five scattered holo polishes, from orchid purple to black based on Tennyson’s The Beggar Maid. While the polishes are named for Tennyson’s Romance, The Beggars Maid, the shades mainly […]
A England – Shall Be My Queen Swatches and Review
The final shade in A England’s Tennyson’s Romance collection is Shall Be My Queen. A stunning ruby red scattered holographic polish that finishes the collection with a touch of royalty. While the painting does have some beautiful reds in it, I like to think the inspiration is more the royalty aspect of the story. I […]
A England – Angel Grace Swatches and Review
The fourth shade from A England’s Tennyson’s Romance collection is Angel Grace. This stunning scattered holo orchid purple polish may be the least true to the painting, but you know I love my purples. Since it is a bit lighter, the holographic shimmer shows more brightly too. I am not really sure where they got […]
A England – In Robe and Crown Swatch & Review

A deep red wine polish with scattered holo, this one would work for almost all skin tones and is so beautiful in person. I only had this one briefly while I tried out the collection but even the FedEx […]
A England – King Cophetua Swatch & Review
King Cophetua, the second polish in A England’s Tennyson’s Romance, is a gorgeous scattered black holographic polish. It picks up on the darker colours in the painting of The Beggar Maid that hangs in the Tate Gallery. Perhaps even the King’s mindset as he was said to have immediately decided that he would commit suicide if […]
A England – The Beggar Maid Swatch & Review
The first of five gorgeous holographic polishes in the Tennyson’s Romance collection from A England for winter 2016, The Beggar Maid is a beautiful scattered holo dark mink polish. It ranges between steel grey to a slight pink-mauve or brown depending on lighting and is just stunning in person. The inspiration for this shade definitely […]
Ciate Risky Business Swatch & Review
A weird angle, I know but you needed to see the beautiful purple shift in Ciate Risky Business. It has a colour shifting base of blue to purple with blue gloitter “sequins”. Risky Business looks a lot more opaque in the bottle but is really sheer so better as a topper or effect coat. To […]
