I thought I'd better get a blog post up since it's been a few days! As you know if you're a regular reader my eldest started school a few weeks ago, and since then I have been doing some temporary work. That finishes tomorrow so hopefully then I'll be able to get into a better routine and not be so knackered all the time, and I can get back into daily posts!
Anyway, today's nails are the last of W7's sprinkles-esque polishes I have to show you, Lava Flow (I have also swatched Mosaic and Salt and Pepper so check those out too!). I cannot stress how fantastic these polishes are. Bang on trend, super pretty and at a fraction of the price of certain other brands - cannot go wrong! Like Salt and Pepper, Lava Flow has a white creme base and contains black matte glitter, this time with the addition of shiny red glitter too. This was two easy coats and a top coat of Poshe. They need a top coat to make them shiny, but they aren't gritty at all, which is another huge bonus.
I have been trying to avoid using too much glitter, because the removal stresses me and my nails out, but this wasn't too bad. Ok, it was still a bitch, but less of a bitch than I was expecting. I am loving loving loving these polishes - they're just so interesting! I like my nails to be a talking point (most of the time) and these polishes are perfect for adding interest when I don't have the inclination (read: can't be bothered) to do stamping or nail art. W7 get's it 100% right with these. Respect!
Will you be picking up any of these? Let me know if you do, you wont be disappointed!

This is so gorgeous!! I didn't think I was going to like these at first but I have been won over by them. I think this one is my favorite of them all!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty! If W7 were sold over here, I'd have tons of them.
ReplyDeleteI hope you know about foil method for glitter removal--I use it to get off glitter all the time and the hardest part is waiting for the acetone to do its work.
Yes love, I do thanks but am trying to avoid it because my nails are so peely at the moment and I'm sure it can't be doing them any good!x
DeleteHey. I have been hearing a lot about people making a base coat of Pva glue and water in sure if you google it then you will find something on it. I'm going to try it this weekend but apparently glitter comes off like a dream with it. I think it peels neatly off the nail. How long lasting it is might change with it being peely though. I have flaky nails too and it's doing my head in! Just thought I would mention it invade you fancy giving it a go x
DeleteWhat a beauteous combo! :)
ReplyDeletei just cannot get enough of this polish. such a winner number by w7

I have this and I love it, wouldn't it be great if they made some more in different colours!
ReplyDeleteI like this one, I love mosaic too. I am just not sure on Salt and Pepper. It looks like the inside of a wet verucca to me. :(
