Topshop Gypsy Night - NOTD #4

Hello everyone! Today we are here to talk about this little beauty that I picked up a month ago on a total whim, Gypsy Night by Topshop.


Picture taken on my iPhone 5.


I had never seen this nail polish before and I just spotted it at the corner of my eye, looked at it properly and went yes please *snatch*! What attracted me to this nail polish is how sparkly it is (I'm a total sucker for sparkles) and also how it was a black sparkly nail polish as I never see them! Not only is it just plain black but it has strong undertones of gold, and the sparkles are multi-coloured.. So basically I was sold just by the colour in the bottle. 

The packaging is the standard glass bottle with a cute white handle with black dots with the glass clear bottom - I personally love it!

At first when I applied this it was sheer, which I've found with a lot of Topshop's nail polishes but once you put 3 coats on you get to full opacity and let me tell you that this photo does not do this nail polish justice because it is truly beautiful on the nails. The colour is even more stunning out the bottle and I got so many compliments when wearing this! I was majorly impressed with how this nail polish looked as whenever the light hits it it sparkles like there is no tomorrow, and also how long lasting it is - 5 days without a single chip! Yes, that is with a top coat on, but for £6 that is so good! It probably could have went longer if I hadn't taken it off.

Overall I am extremely impressed with this nail polish and overall with the Topshop line, I have 5 or 6 nail polishes from Topshop and they have all pretty much impressed me so far. Gypsy Night is a definite thumbs up from me and I will be wearing this so much over winter. Also, if you are interested in buying it you can get it here.

So that's about it for this blog post, hope you have enjoyed reading. If you have any suggestions of what you want to see on my blog please let me know, and let me know if you have tried any Topshop nail polishes, and if so, what's your favourite?

Hope you have a lovely day and don't stop smiling :)

OPI Tomorrow Never Dies - NOTD #3

Hello everyone! Today I'm here to tell you about this lovely nail polish I picked up in New York which I've been wanting for a while, which is OPI Tomorrow Never Dies. Tomorrow Never Dies is from OPI's Skyfall James Bond Collection, which is a gorgeous collection with a huge variety of colours which you can see here.

I'd seen this polish online before and I automatically fell in love, so when I got my chance to buy it I practically rugby tackled anyone in my way. I was drawn to this polish just from the colour, it's a bright intense purpley/blue depending how the light hits it. When I applied it, I was immediately impressed. I only had to apply two coats to get to full opacity and the colour is so bright, the pictures do not do this colour justice! I was also really impressed at how shiny and reflective this nail polish is without a top coat, it almost looks metallic! (however I always put a top coat on to prevent chipping.)

So far I have had this nail polish on for 3 days and I haven't had one chip, which has made me a very happy girl. Overall I'm very impressed with this colour and in general OPI nail polishes, so you'll be seeing a lot of them in my NOTD posts.

Also, if people in the UK are looking to buy this nail polish, because I know how hard it is to find OPI in the UK (which sucks), this is actually on sale here, down from £11 (usual price for UK peeps) to £6.50 (WHAT A BARGAIN!) so if you want to get your hands on this then there is the place! I've also found the John Lewis, very.com, nailpolishdirect.co.uk and more sell it for UK peeps just from googling "opi nail polish uk" so if you are looking to buy OPI nail polish in general I'd google it and there are plenty of places online, just none in stores anywhere (at least for me..) As for the US, I think you can pretty much get them anywhere and as for anywhere else, I'm afraid I don't know but google solves everything!

Anyway that's about it for today's post. I hope you enjoyed reading this and if you can find OPI nail polishes anywhere online that ships to the UK please let me know! Also, what OPI nail polishes have you tried, and do you like them?

I hope you are having a lovely day and don't stop smiling. :)
