The Nail Files - NailsInc London Tinsel Town Collection


This past weekend I went shopping in Palm Desert with one of my dear friends. We went to Ulta.

That was a mistake!! However, I was surprisingly good, considering all the lovely things I really wanted to spend my money on!

I did buy this beauty combo, though:

Here's the Link, cause according to the ULTA website, it's an online only thing. It was the only one in the store, so maybe someone returned it (though it didn't look opened) or they got one for display purposes. Either way...I snatched it up!

And here's what I did with it:
One coat of Kensington High Street is on all nails but my ring finger. Mayfair is the base on the ring finger nail. And Carnival is the glitter. It's a clear base with large gold and pink flakes and smaller holographic specks. And it is a pain in the bootay to apply. I kind of had to manipulate the larger flakes to get it to look remotely close to what I thought it should look like. And then a clear top coat so "seal" it in...some. I still managed to smudge it a bit, but it's held in place so far.

My only complaint is the glitter polish. But that will take some working with to get used to manipulating the flakes the way I want them. Other than that, I love all these colors and the coverage. The one coat of Kensington High Street is a little splotchy in the right light, so maybe two coats next time. But I am really enjoying this look and will probably do it again.

As always, I've linked up:

  1. Gorgeous! However, I would not have guessed the glitter polish to look like that based on the bottle....so I can totally see how it would have been frustrating to apply!

    I would love for you to link up this manicure at this week's Beauty Frenzy Friday blog link party! Every post that links up will get pinned and have the chance to be featured the following week.

  2. Oooo! I'm loving this combo! I hate the way some glitters need to be finoogled. It's so frustrating!! Thank goodness for bent paper clips/toothpicks, right? ;)
