The Nail Files - Week 2


Today I'm linking up with fabulous but evil and My Vickilicious Life. I love link ups so I think this will replace my Manicure Monday. I'm looking forward to all the polish inspiration coming from today's link-up. (My husband- not so much, lol)  Quite obsessed with polish - always have been. In high school I would paint my nails almost every night to coordinate with my outfit.

This week has been busy with cleaning & unpacking so I went with an unusual choice for me, something light and neutral that won't show if it chips. It was a gift from a good friend.

This is "Yummy Mummy
Described as "Our ‘magic’ lacquer. This medium beige colour is simply stunning on EVERY skin colour. If you can’t decide on a lacquer, then we will for you. It’s this." - Butter London website.

I threw on 2 or 3 coats, no base no top coat- very lazy of me, and its been on for 5 days. Very minimal chipping at the edges. Loving this brand. I want several shades from their spring/summer 2012 line.

What will be on your nails this weekend? I'm thinking OPI's Russian Navy or The One that Got Away (both are favorites and my go-to polishes). I'm sure you'll be seeing both from me soon.
