Hey loves!
I hope you're all well and enjoying the spring weather :-)
Recently I indulged in a little nail retail therapy! Suffice to say I have enough nail polishes to last me my entire life but I insist on buying more...
Until this haul, I had never used the Models Own brand. I'd seen it reviewed on blogs and in YouTube haul videos etc but I hadn't tried them myself. I am now a complete convert! Here's the colours I hauled...
Models Own Glitter Mini Trio and Silver Glitter Nail Polish
You may think that glitter polishes are just for Christmas but I reckon otherwise. A silver or gold glitter accent nail looks really chic all year round.
From L-R: Models Own Emerald City, Scarlet Sparkle, Bluebelle and Juicy Jules
All the glitter shades were full of little sparkles and only needed two coats to reach the desired opacity (above). Emerald City is one of my favourite shades of them all!
With emerald green voted Pantone's Colour of 2013, this is one colour I can definitely see myself wearing through spring/summer 2013.
The glittery red and royal blue shades are colours I could see myself reaching for more through the winter months as they're quite dark - but I think nude nails with a silver glitter accent nail like Juicy Jules looks really cute and summery.
Models Own Neon Yellow Nail Polish and Pastel Trio
How bright is the neon yellow shade?! Seriously amazing...
From L-R: Luis Lemon (Neon), Fuzzy Peach, Top Turquoise and Lilac Dream
I have already worn the neon yellow shade LOADS already - it's that bright, fluro colour that instantly jazzes up any outfit. I like to apply it over a white nail polish to really make the neon pop.
The Fuzzy Peach (orange) shade is one that will never go out of style - and the teal colour (Top Turquoise) is an ideal transitional colour for spring. I also couldn't believe how thick and creamy the lilac shade was, it only needed one cost to reach the full opacity above.
I think it's safe to say I will be stocking up on more Models Own nail polishes in the future. I have my eye on ALL of the neon Hed Kandi shades so you'll probably see those in a haul post soon! Haha :-)
Are you a Models Own fan? Have you tried the Hed Kandi shades?
Let me know in the comments or over on Twitter now!
Love,
Sophia
