Models Own Firework Nail Polish Overview

This has to be by far the best collection from Models Own (for me anyway). Firework collection is one of two new collections released last week and if you love glitter then you will love this collection. This collection is for the autumn/winter 2013 since it has the name 'Firework' and all the names for the nail polishes are names of fireworks which I quite like. There are five brand new nail polishes in this collection and they are all packed full of glitter. Each nail polish has a colour associated with it but they do not have a base colour. They all have a clear base with a main colour by different types and forms of glitter. I have tried my hardest to get good swatches and pictures of the nail polishes and their glitters, plus I bought fake nail sticks to try and get a much better swatch than you would do just seeing the polish in the bottle.

The first one is Rocket and this is a red theme glitter polish. There are red strands, orange hex, holographic micro glitters.

Roman Candle has pink hexes light and dark pink, pink and silver dots, silver micro glitter and holographic strands.

Banger contains light blue hex, pink dots, lilac micro glitter and blue strands.

Catherine Wheel contains orange hex, red dots, yellow strands and yellow micro glitter

Sparker contains holographic strands

I got mine from the Models Own website and it was £20 for the 5 polishes plus I got a mini buffer.

Boots are doing a buy one get one half price and I know they have started to stock Models  Own in Superdrug. The firework collection is going to be released in Superdrug on 25th September but it is already out in Boots and on their official website. They are £5 pounds each and I think they are affordable and brilliant for how much they cost. 

Upcoming beauty products for September 2013

Hello, I have six brand new launches coming out in the month of September and there are more launches but I would actually buy these products.

The first one is by Sleek makeup and it is their vintage romance collection. This collection consists of two products, one is an I Divine pallet in Showstoppers and a blush called Vintage. The colours in the i divine palette are all very autumn inspired such as berry colours and very neutral brown colours. Also there are three finishes to the eyeshadows; matte, shimmer and sparkle which is the norm for sleek limited edition palettes. The blush is a neutral but very shimmery and sparkly. The sparkle is an iridescent silver glitters which could look over powerful if applied too much. As I have said before this is a limited edition collection, so I would get it before they run out of stock or stop selling it. The eyeshadow palette is £7.99 and the blush costs £4.99.

The next one is a blush by Benefit. I have already done a blog post on the new benefit blush. Please see the following link for more information about the Benefit blush - http://laurensmart1993.blogspot.co.uk/2013/08/benefit-rockateur-new-launch.html

The third product being launched in the month of September is by Models Own. Models Own are releasing the firework collection. I love the names of the nail polishes and the name of the whole collection. The firework collection includes five glitter nail polishes. These glitter nail polishes can be used as a top coat over another nail polish or on their own. Sparkler contains holographic strands in a clear base. Catherine Wheel contains four glitters which includes mini gold strands, red dots and holographic strands. Banger contains blue strands, two shades of blue hexes and fuchsia micro glitter in a clear base. Roman Candle contains pink glitter with black and silver strands in a clear base. Lastly Rocket contains red strands with black dots in a clear base. They each costs £5 but I know on the Models Own website, they will usually do a deal where you buy the whole lot for £20 pound. This collection has already been launched in their bottle shops, 2nd September for the official Models Own website, 4th September for Boots stores and 25th September for superdrug stores. 

The next nail polish collection launch is Essie. Essie are releasing six new shades for the autumn and winter 2013. The names of the nail polishes follow, For the twill of it which is a rich maple with reflective olive shimmer. After school boy blazer which is a deep midnight blue. Twin sweater set which is a vibrant crimson red. Cashmere bathrobe which is a soft, true grey. The lace iron which is a jewel toned fuchsia. Lastly Vested interest which is a woollen cool grey teal. This collection is getting launched in Boots and Superdrug at £7.99 each.

The second to last one is by MUA and it is a brand new palette. I don't know what the name of this palette is called but I know it is a neutral toned palette. The first row of colours start from very light highlight colours to light browns. Then the second row is from medium to dark browns with one very deep/grey blue. I think this palette will be under £5 like with the other palettes from MUA. 

The last product is from Rimmel London and it is their new stay matte mousse foundation. This is a lightweight, shine control, long lasting foundation.  Their are six shades; light porcelain, Ivory, True ivory, Soft beige, Classic beige and Natural beige. This foundation will be release on 4th September in Boots and superdrug at £5,99.

These are all the products coming out in September. I hoped you liked this post.

Models Own Nail Polish 'Pink Paradise'

Pink Paradise is a new nail polish from Models Own from their latest collection containing 5 shades. The 'splash' collection has literally just came out into Boots and I saw Pink Paradise and had to pick it up.

Pink Paradise looks like a super bright barbie pink colour but in actual fact its nowhere near as pink on the nails. Its a very sheer pink with chunks of iridescent glitter shining purple, orange, yellow and green with shimmer particles shining the same colours. The first layer is very sheer with a hint of pink and a varied amount of glitter.

I used three coats of Pink Paradise and it still does not look like the colour in the bottle. However I do like the colour on the nails, its not an overpowering pink, its a light pink colour which a heap of glitter particles. The glitter particles look stunning in the sun shine and can still pick up the glitter in dull daytime whether.

Plus if you are looking for a super quick nail polish to apply, I would not recommend this as it does take 5 mins max to dry and you need quite a few layers to make the colour decent enough.

Overall dont expect pink paradise to be as pink as in the bottle, but its still a nice pink to where with the glitter which looks so nice. You might be able to get the same colour if you layer the nail polish lots of times but I prefer just three coats.

The problem with glitter nail polishes like this one, is the removal process. I think it will take a long time and a lot of nail polish remover and patience.

Nails of the week - 7th October 2012

This might be a new blog post that I might do every week about the nail polish that I am wearing that week. So this weeks nail polish is by Models Own. I recently bought 6 polishes from them when they did their half price sale on everything on their website. I took advantage of that sale and bought 6 polishes. The one I am wearing in the picture below is  Mystic Mauve. Mystic Mauve is part of their champagne collection which was released ages ago. It is a nice Purple/Lilac/Mauve colour and has a nice sheen to it. The polish was very good quality because it only took one coat to make it look like the bottle colour and covered the whole nail perfectly.

I then put a glitter coat over Mystic Mauve which was Boogie Nights. This is another Models Own nail polish and its from their newest collection 'Mirrorball'. The polish has got purple, blue and multi colour glitter particles in different shapes and sizes. I love this nail polish but its quite tricky trying to get the glitter to stay on the nail and to make the glitter even on each nail to not make it look weird.

Overall love this combo Mystic Mauve and Boogie Nights. You can get Models Own on their website and in Boots online and instore.
