My Favourite Nail polish at the moment!


The quality of most Sally Hansen nail polishes (there are a few that aren't so great) are impeccable, and do rival my favourite brand O.P.I in many ways. 
When it gets to this time of year I love to have dark nails, I feel they look really classy, and they go with pretty much everything. 

Cue my current favourite polish! Pat on the Black by Sally Hansen, it is the perfect shade, it's not quite black, but has a real hint of cherry in it, creating overall a really nice deep purpley/black.


The polish goes on very smoothly, and only needs 1-2 coats, the overall finish has a really nice shine, but with top coat is even more shiny and looks really gorgeous!
The polishes are £6.99 each but are also regularly included in the 3 for 2 offers at Boots. They are much more affordable than O.P.I and this particular shade does rival the formulation.
I would definitely recommend to anyone who loves a dark nail. Sally Hansen also make one of my favourite nude polishes which is called Mauve Along.

My number one product for stronger nails!


O.P.I has always been one of my favourite nail brands for a long time! Nail Envy, first came to my knowledge through one of my mum's friend's who had long worn acrylic nails, after deciding to have them removed swore that nail envy had really helped to repair the damage done to her natural nails.
My mum then began to start using it and too swore by it.
I've never in the past had really weak or brittle nails, but since I started working in care and wearing gloves a lot I have noticed a huge change in my nails, and they have become more prone to peeling and breaking.
I decided try out my Mum's, and after a month of applying it once a month noticed a huge difference in my nails.
They were much stronger and had ceased to stop peeling!
Although this is quite a pricey product at £18.65 for a bottle but it's definitely worth it and better than other cheaper nail strengtheners I've tried such as Rimmel and Collections. 
I would definitely recommend this to anyone who has weak nails, you will notice a difference.
Even my step sister commented what good condition my nails wear in when she applied my Gelish for my holiday!
Here's to better healthier nails! :-)
