Antique Coral

Another coral post! I didn't realise how much I loved them until now!

This is Antique Coral from the Natural Collection.  It actually has a shimmer to it but the matte top coat cancels it out and I actually think I prefer it that way!  The colour seems much stronger without the shimmer and it looks amazing matte!

I used Rimmel Stronger base coat, two coats of Antique Coral and a coat of Soft Touch by Essence. 


I picked up Soft Touch on a whim on holiday in Fuertevetura as I wanted to try a matte top coat and it was really cheap, now I want to put it on everything, I love it!

Please excuse the grainy photos, I didn't have flash on and this is what happens without it :(

Coral Star

 I was given this nameless coral polish as part of a perfume gift set and decided to give it a go. 
Surprisingly the polish went on really well and wasn't too thin (which I hate!). 
I used a Miss Sporty base coat, then applied two coats of the polish and finished with a Miss Sporty top coat (I really don't like it, need to get a new one soon). 

But my nails looked too bare with just the coral polish so I decided to add some blue stars on the corner of my thumb nails to spice it up a bit.

I think it looks pretty good actually, I think I'll do this manicure again :)
