Purely Polish

I brought my blog back from the dead today as I now have a functioning camera

I don't think I'm a very good blogger but I will update here when I make new posts if anyone is interested.

Fun!
Do you then stick those nails on and wear them? I've not worn false nails for about 30 years, I suspect they are rather better now, and the glue is more effective?

Not these ones yet I haven't, but I will be Normally I use my own nails but if I'm just trying stuff out I'll use a fake set. I think the glue is pretty good, I can wear them for about a week before they start coming off.

Would you post a picture of them on for me? Actually anyone that does this. I've been reluctant to try it and still need some persuading!
Painting on fake nails and stamping and adding things seems like a great idea, but I just remember ill fitting, poorly stuck messes when I tried all those years ago.

Oooh love the tetris ones, what is the base colour, it looks really shimmery on. Y iPad.

Errrm I couldn't tell you as I'm at my dad's - it's just a random charcoal shimmery cheapo one that I got from somewhere. It looks a little bit like A-England Bridal Veil I think - though I can compare the two when my Bridal Veil turns up

Yeah of course! I probably won't be wearing any until I go to this wedding at the end of the month, but I'll be sure to blog my nails when I do.

See that's what I thought but knew you didn't own it yet. I might recreate your look.

Well I think that's the first time anyone's said they're going to do something I've done so thanks I'll dig the polish out when I get back to my mum's.

Here is the layering of Morgan Le Fay over black that I mentioned

Your blog looks good to me - I just followed you too! I did find it a bit hard to find your follow button though; maybe you might want to put a bigger one in a more prominent place

Thanks for the feedback! If I'm completely honest, I haven't got a clue how to use Wordpress but I'm going to try and figure it out as I don't like it much at the moment!

Oh, I posted again today about Headline Colours "Poolside Party", plus some striping and caviar beads

Really wish I'd used Blogger now, that seems to be the most popular choice.

Just trying to get it to actually look like a blog, get all the bits down the side and stuff like that, but I really don't have a clue.

Someone had already used the name I wanted on blogger already so I went with Wordpress.

You need to choose a layout that means you can have culoums. Then you just add them in.

Right, after hours of faffing, think I've got something I'm finally happy with! Was surprised about the hit counter, I don't get many comments but I've had over 1,000 hits!

Anyone got feedback? I managed to get the follow button more visible!

Just blogged a swatch of Etude House Ice Cream polish!
