Work Friendly Wednesday - Pahlish Twelve Drummers Drumming Swatch & Review

I can't believe I've already caved... I can't stay away from glitter for too long! This week's Work Friendly Wednesday polish is one of my very few work-appropriate glitters, Pahlish Twelve Drummers Drumming.

Twelve Drummers Drumming is a mix of different sizes and shapes of bronze glitters in a milky off white base. The base has an ever so slight amount of shimmer in it. I found the formula to be quite thick while the polish itself is fairly sheer, so it was difficult to build up to opacity. This is 3 coats, and you can see there's still some VNL. Despite this, I like how delicate this polish looks.

Twelve Drummers Drumming is limited edition and can be purchased from the Pahlish etsy store. She also makes a couple of similar subtle, neutral glitter combinations.

Do you consider this to be a work-friendly glitter? Would you wear this to work?

Disney Princess Challenge: Snow White

This week's theme for the Disney Princess Challenge is Snow White. I was never really into Snow White unfortunately... And I struggled to be really inspired for this theme, so my attempt is a bit half-hearted. On the other hand I've been wanting to try this style of dotting for ages so this was the perfect opportunity.

I used Pretty Serious BSOD, OPI Red and Rimmel Lemon Drop. I'm still obsessed with the OPI Matte Top Coat so I couldn't resist mattifying this. I love the smooth look!

Bestie Twin Nails with Labmuffin

Bestie Twin Nails is a theme that's been fairly popular on Instagram lately. Basically you pair up with your "bestie" and do matching nails. There have been some really inspirational twin nails created, and it looked like  fun, so I paired up with Michelle from Labmuffin to do our own! Luckily we're both control freaks so we tried to co-ordinate as much as possible.

For the dotted gradients, we used a base of Ulta3 Blue Marlin and dots of Ulta3 Lily White and Gold Rush Fever. The glitter gradient is Essence Make It Golden.

I really enjoyed doing these and I think they turned out great! It took a while for us to figure out which polishes we had in common, and then figure out what colour combination and nail art we both liked. Doing this also makes me grateful for the friends I've made and people I've met through nail polish. The Aussie Nails facebook group is one of the friendliest groups of people I've ever met, and I'm so glad to be a part of it.

Ok, end mushy stuff. Check out #bestietwinnails on Instagram to see all the other cool matching manis!
