What are you wearing today?

Thanks SueD, the application here is my usual fairly crud standard....!
Sorry to hear that your Kiko layer's gone a bit bandy, this happens to me too - I keep a bottle of remover and some balls in the kitchen for those ' this has to come off - NOW' moments!

The Color Club looks fab Loola. I'm not normally a big fan of green but I do like that - very sparkly!

So I decided to be brave and share a photo! Please excuse my dry cuticles (I hate this weather!) and bad messy nail painting!) No idea what the lump is on my ring finger I thought it was just a bubble last night but I think there must have been a lump of something in the Kiko top coat

Well I think it looks fab SueD! You're a very neat polisher and your cuticles are 100 times better than mine
My Kiko order is due tomorrow so I hope it's not held up by the bad weather (all schools closed here today ).

Thank you I hope your Kiko order arrives safely,what did you order?

How long have you got?
From what I can remember, a gel look top coat, three of the new celebration colours, a couple of sugar mats and a few 'regular' ones (including the milk chocolate for 50p!). I find the swatch googling a bit of a bummer for Kiko, there seem to be shades that they don't do in the UK (a glittery one, a sparkly one..) and I always want the ones that they don't have!
Fortunately my Sister goes to Milan periodically so I'm building a list

50p? Wow, it was £3.90 when I was ordering (I got dark chocolate)! I still have my sugar mat to try,and Dark chocolate I know what you mean about googling swatches, I originally wanted a holographic green one after seeing a photo of it,which was out of stock and didn't show on the website at all

ELF Metal Madness, which is nice enough on its own, but I put Glitzology Snow Day on top to celebrate the snow.

What happened to your thumb nail Muffy? Did you break it?

They look pretty good to me Sue. That's a nice colour - what is it?

Thank you both :-)
It's Kiko shade 278 violet orchid layered over black.I don't normally wear purple much but this reminds me of a purple quality street wrapper :-)

Looks lovely on you Sue x

I am embarassingly proud of my effort last night. Far from perfect and with dire cuticles, but for me - a triumph!

Rimmel Baby Bellini with an OPI Bond (I can never remember which one this is, will check and put the name in later) and a lot of dabbing with a half used kitchen sponge. It seemed very quick to do, and I can feel a few more of these comong on, but I don't think I'm ready for any more than the two shades yet......!!

Looks gorgeous Hun! X

Thanks mrsmoore2b I don't generally wear reds but this seemed a novel way to start. It'll have to come off tonight or tomorrow ready for Comic Relief nails.

I really like that loolabeanbag

very pretty! I do love gradients, they are so simple but so effective!

Love those two colours together Loola!

Loola - that is gorgeous!! I love those colours together, so pretty.

Barry M Amethyst Glitter, it's f*cking rank and gonna be so hard to get off. *Rages*

Oh no what do you not like? Colours, formula? I don't have that but have picked it up a few times in superdrug x

I did put on MUA U R Fab with ELF Fairy Dust on top, but then a parcel came and I smudged them in my excitement. it was a good thing anyway as the didn't look that great together.
In the end I wore Pink Planet from Miss Sporty (a metallic pink one-coater) with Models Own Boogie Nights on top.

Yeah.

It looks lovely in the bottle but really dull on my nails. Maybe it's the light? I've taken it off now anyway, but I found the formula was quite watery.

What a shame! What's next on your hit list? X
