Happy Monday Lovelies!
I hope you had a wonderful weekend. It was cold and rainy here (as predicted) the whole weekend which means I didn’t have to leave the house once. I got to cuddle on the couch with a blanket and movies. So much fun right?
Remember in this post I was having the sads because I didn’t have black and white glitter and I’ve been on the hunt for some for ages? Well I was lusting over someones Instagram photo with black and white glitter and the very generous Margaret on Instagram said she had a spare bottle and offered to send it to me. How super generous is she? I am such a lucky girl. Now she also sent me a few other polishes so I will show you all of them as well but today I am just showing you two.
This is Ulta3 – Watermelon. I was so drawn to this colour when I opened my package and I knew I had to use it first.
I will tell you more about Watermelon when I show you the others but for now I paired it with my super gorgeous black and white glitter and some stamping.
Here I used one coat of the glitter – Stop The Press – on my pinky and index finger. On my middle and ring fingers I stamped using Pueen18 and Essence stampy polish in black. I really loved the combination. Stop the press was also very easy to use and spread well.
I am so in love with this glitter AND the polishes I got. I feel utterly spoilt and can’t thank Margaret enough.
I am having the hardest time with my camera at the moment. I changed some settings according to recommendations I found online to get some better photos. I don’t know anything about photography or even what half the settings mean and that was mistake number one. I took over 200 photo’s during the week and when I downloaded them to my computer the colour was so off I couldn’t use any of them. No matter how I tweaked or tried, it wasn’t going to happen. I am so annoyed with myself for fiddling with the camera. I haven’t been sure if my photo’s are the best they can be but clearly fiddling the settings didn’t help at all. Urgh. So apologies for the short and to the point post but I apparently have some work to do 😉
Don’t you just love this black and white glitter? And Watermelon is so pretty. I can’t wait to show you all the polishes. I hope you have a lovely week. Can you believe October is almost over?
Thanks for reading!
It’s perfect for Halloween! Not that I have any interest in or do anything for Halloween, but for those who love it, this is perfect!! 🙂

Thanks so much Lauren. I absolutely agree with you. I love the colour too. After posting this I actually think it is very close to Sinful Colors – Pandora but I will do a comparison of them and see if I am right.
Whaaa the glitter looks amazing! And I just love the stamped stars 🙂

Thanks Imka. I agree, you do need some. It’s so gorgeous!
I like the glitter and stamp combo…they complement each other well. And, they make a cute Halloween mani! 😉
I can’t believe October is almost over. My mom always said time goes by so quickly the older you get and I have definitely found that to be true. I can’t believe Thanksgiving and the holidays are coming up! >_<
Thanks Lesley. I agree. It wasn’t my intention to make anything halloween like but it is quite a good one for halloween huh? 😛
It’s absolutely crazy! It feels like last week when we were getting ready for Christmas and here we are again. At least you guys have Thanksgiving too.
The stars are too cute:-))) Love it!

What a great combo! The black and white glitters stand out so well against the melon base, and it’s a really cute look for Halloween! Love it! 😀
