These colours are sooooo shimmery, I'm really really impressed by them. 17 is a really affordable brand made for boots & I would recommend them to anyone who likes to experiment with nail colours but doesn't necessarily want to splash out on higher budget brands.

I kept these colours on for a week & they stayed chip free which really impressed me. They also dry fairly quick which meant I had no smudges or dents (I'm always painting my nails just before work & then end up chipping or smudging them whilst I'm rushing about). Unlike glitter polishes they're super easy to remove but have that same eye catching factor that glitter polishes have. All in all I basically have no complaints about these beauties. They did the job perfectly & I will definitely look at purchasing polishes from this brand again. Looking forward to using the rest of the items in this kit :)

Let me know if you've come across any great 17 polishes....

Hope you enjoy

Today is a guest post from the lovely Lucy over at..

I would recommend you have a nosey at her super cute blog, she has some great reviews :)

Hey sweets! So when I saw Katie's tweet about doing a guest post, I jumped at the chance! I have never done one before, but thought why not, try something new! So for my guest post I thought I would share some of my favourites of the moment, a great way to get to know me!

Helloooo :)

I'd been inspired by nails using tin foil this week, but rather than using it on them all and resembling the tin man I decided to just use it on one nail...

I created a miss match look which looked something like this once finished....

(my NOTW photo's are usually from my instagram @katielewla if you want to check it out)

Now here's a little break down for you of how I used the tin foil.

1. Cut out a small piece of foil (large enough to cover your nail and leave some excess)

2. Apply a blob of nail glue or polish and leave to go tacky then press the foil onto your nail and smooth out using either your finger or a soft orange stick.

3. Using the edge of the orange stick start to cut around the edges of your nail by using gentle movements to tear the foil.

4. Snip off the excess using scissors or cuticles scissors. Tuck the rest under the nails & apply a top coat.

Voila!

Here are the products I used to create my miss match nails. Be warned there are quite a few!

It has become relatively clear to me recently that I buy a lot of bargains on eBay. Now when I say bargains I mean under the £5 mark more often than not! I post most of my eBay finds on my Instagram but for those of you that don't have it or who would like to see the pictures in full view & know a little bit more info, I've decided to start posting my eBay finds on my blog :)

I have had quite a few eBay finds recently so I might backdate them a bit but this one is my most recent which I have received this week.
