Sally Hansen Mille Fleurs Nail Polish


Sally Hansen Mille Fleurs, 2 coats, Sally Hansen Max Growth Base/Top Coat, with flash.



Today I have a beautiful girly colour from Sally Hansen's Diamond Strength No Chip Nail Colour line, Mille Fleurs. Before my little haul the other day I was actually a Sally Hansen virgin so was really pleased to try one and I chose this vibrant pink to start with.

First of all look at the gorgeous bottle it comes in, it's kind of a teardrop shap with as shiny mirrored lid and even a little crystal on thr front! You get 13ml of product so quite a decent amount of polish and I only paid £1.50 from Fragrance Direct, bargain!

This is a really vibrant corally pink cream and it's very warm toned. Warmer tones usually don't look very good on my skintone but this particular one looks really nice I think. The formula is a little on the runny side and it did want to keep running in to my cuticles, but actually if you take your time and are careful there are no blobs on the brush (yes I know, technical terms lol) you should be fine. It took longer in between coats to dry than I expected (twice as long as my OPI the day before) but I was only sitting watching the telly so I wasn't too fussed.


Sally Hansen Mille Fleurs, 2 coats, Sally Hansen Max Growth Base/Top Coat, no flash.



It took two coats to get this opaque finish except one of my thumbs which I used three, but that was down to user error... I used Sally Hansen Maximun Growth Plus Base and Top coat both as my base and top coat with this polish and I think the combination has worked well. It's funny, not really sure why I'm bothering with a top coat as I'm changing my polish every day at the moment.

All in all despite the slight application issues I really like the colour and finish, and I'll probably get allot of wear from this in the summer months. So, do any of you have this polish? What do you think of it? Do you like it as much as me?

I hope you enjoy the weekend and wherever you are the sun is shining! Take care all, byeeeee x :-)

My First Experience Of Stamping...

Image
I was really eager to get stamping away when my new plates arrived so I waited until my little girl Gracie was in bed and got all my nail things out. I have to say that I did think I was going to get it straight away and I got very frustrated that it wasn't coming out perfect straight away until some other people told me that you just need to practice a few times. I wasn't sure whether I should post the pics as it was a massive fail, but actually it's good for other newbie stampers such as myself to see what my experience has been like. So to start off with I had a little lap tray with all the equipment I needed and covered it with some kitchen roll as I'd heard this can get quite messy. Then I picked out a stamping plate, the one I chose was BM210. Next was to decide which polish I wanted to stamp with, well that wasn't too much of a choice as I wanted to use one of my new Konad Special Polishes and I only had them in black or white, so I chose white. ...

I have to admit, I found it a little difficult lining up the design on t...

ANOTHER Haul? Oooohhhhh Yes!

Image
Yes I know I've already bought an unusually large amount of nail polish in the last couple of months, but I just can't seem to stop. Is it an illness? Do I really need all of these different colours? Well, those questions remain to be seen, but what I can say is that I really want all of them and as I don't smoke, drink or really spend my money on anything else for me, (most of my money is spent on my daughter) I feel like this is one little vice that isn't too bad. Left to right, Castello Blue, Capriccio Blue, Incantato Purple, Romanzo Pink. I'll start with the Borghese . You may be wondering why I've bought four more polishes from this brand when I wasn't too keen on Milano Taupe, but the truth is, I'd already ordered these before I had even tried it! Hmmm, well I hope these ones have a more manageable, softer brush.  Left to right, Pink Opal, Moon Beam, silver Metal, Wild Orchid, Cherry Bomb, Red Passion.  Lets move on to the Hedy...
