Australis - (no name)

I actually have no idea what this one's called. I looked up the Australis website but they didn't have this colour, nor does the bottle have a name where there should be a name.

Anyway, here it is. Put it on and took a few photos.

Sorry about the dodgy application and my peeling index finger; I don't think it likes my polish remover

It's a lovely sheer black polish with a fine white shimmer. As I currently have madly stained nails from not using base coats, this is three coats to make it opaque. No brush marks, and is really easy to apply.

Apologies for the dodgy camera work- it's an old camera which blurs when flash isn't used, and can't focus on anything too close to the lens. Anyway, tell me which of the others in my newest haul you want to see!

...Is it weird that I'm posting like I have lots of followers when in reality I only have one?

EDIT;

Decided to do a mini tape mani with this as the base. Here it is!

From left to right, the polishes I used are ORLY Rose Radiance, ORLY Aspen, and Beauty Style Petites (silver metallic)

Hope you like my very first tape mani!

Today's Haul!

I got some new polishes today! So now I'm distracted by them which is really bad because I have a maths exam tomorrow and I really should study for it...

Anyway, here they are!

Australis Sinfully Sweet and OPI Turquoise Shatter

ORLY Aspen, Rose Radiance and Walk Down the Aisle

Altogether they cost $22.94. The three ORLYs were $10, OPI Shatter $9.95 and Australis $2.99. Priceline were having a sale >3

I also got some grey eyeshadow from the new Jap store that just opened for $2.80 (originally $3.99, but they're having a 30% off opening sale). Planning to experiment with it to make a grey polish!

I think I'm getting addicted to polish now D: But at least it's a better addiction to have than cigarettes, drugs, alcohol...yea...

My mum likes ORLY Rose Radiance and Walk Down the Aisle, but because she works with food she's not allowed to put on polish. She's promised me that when we went back to China I can buy all the polish I want (within a reasonable range). Happy~

EDIT;

Tried the shatter, but I won't show you pictures because it's on my right hand and so it's really messy and yucky. The colour's nice though :)

Ulta3 - Crystallina

(Procrastinating on my Textiles portfolio, which is really bad because if I don't hand it in tomorrow, I may potentially fail the course...)

Been wanting to do some new nail art, but I'm really stingy and don't want to remove the watermelons until they chip xD So instead I got a new bottle of polish from the pharmacy!

Ulta3's Crystallina

It's a transparent white with a very light gold shimmer throughout. I love it!

Crystallina over Beauty Style's Black Cherry

I tried it on white as well but ruined it when I had to insert the brush head back into the stem of the Crystallina after I accidentally pulled it out xD

Tell me if you'd like to see any Ulta3 colours over any other colours! I'm hoping to get Mermaid Green next Saturday, so look forward to it! I might do a post in the middle of the week, since it's exams and I'll have some time off since I don't have exams on Thursday.

Ulta3 is only available in Australia, and sold for $2 in pharmacies. I love the colours they have and how easy they go on. Most colours only need one coat.
