I purchased the Blue Denim and Black Denim.<br />
First up, the <strong>Blue Denim</strong>....<br />
<a data-mce-href="http://www.melodymoo.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/IMG_20130819_190917.jpg" href="http://www.melodymoo.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/IMG_20130819_190917.jpg" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="IMG_20130819_190917" class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-434" data-mce-src="http://www.melodymoo.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/IMG_20130819_190917-300x225.jpg" height="225" src="http://www.melodymoo.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/IMG_20130819_190917-300x225.jpg" width="300" /></a>Slightly disappointed with this effect as it is meant to give a stone washed denim effect, yet I don't feel it does enough. I think if I were to add some sponged white effect it may look more like denim.<br />
The application was very easy and with it's medium consistency it spread evenly and you could probably get away with one coat, though I used two.<br />
<br />
<br />
It had average drying time and didn't run. However, within the hour the tips of my nails had chipped, probably due to no topcoat, as it can ruin the effect if add clear coat on top. The finish is a slightly textured matte effect that still looks really good though.<br />
Overall I would say worth trying, but not as much denim effect as I would have liked to have seen.<br />
<br />
<br />
Now to the <strong>Black Denim</strong>...<br />
<a data-mce-href="http://www.melodymoo.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/IMG_20130821_191054.jpg" href="http://www.melodymoo.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/IMG_20130821_191054.jpg" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="IMG_20130821_191054" class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-442" data-mce-src="http://www.melodymoo.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/IMG_20130821_191054-225x300.jpg" height="300" src="http://www.melodymoo.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/IMG_20130821_191054-225x300.jpg" width="225" /></a>As with the Blue, the application was simple and easy with no runs and an average drying time.<br />
This one I feel looks nothing like black denim and instead looks more like a shimmery matte. But I Love it! It's such a pretty black polish with a brilliant matte shimmer and texture. Also, unlike the Blue, it took over a week and a half until my nails chipped with the Black!<br />
Again, I may have to experiment with dabbing some sponged white to try to create a more denim look.<br />
Overall, despite this being the east of the two to look denim I love the black effect it offers as a matte polish!Melody Moohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14140414372753101186noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2872221405711758866.post-15974548462628342172013-07-14T06:13:00.001-07:002013-07-14T06:13:31.529-07:00Top Jewellery Trends!This summer is seeing some brilliant trends in fashion and jewellery has come to the forefront of all this!<br />

<strong>4. Shamballa Love!</strong><br />
Yes Shamballa sets are very trendy at the moment! These cute glistening beads come in so many beautiful colours, be it in a necklace, earrings or bracelet. Though if you think it's simply a trendy fad think again, as Shamballa holds a very historic meaning behind the beads. Shamballa is a mythical kingdom that Tibetan Buddhists believe in and they hold a spiritual meaning to search and believe.<br />

<strong>5. Sideways Crosses!</strong><br />
This new take on wearing a cross necklace swept the globe with celebrities adorning the beautiful pieces. Crosses are big in fashion right now too, I'm sure you've seen crosses on leggings, tops, nails and of course jewellery! The great thing about the side cross necklace is that it's so dainty and delicately beautiful you can wear it with anything!<br />

<strong>6. Victorian Antique Bronze</strong><br />
Forget modern and retro, this jewellery trend has travelled us back in time to the 1900's! Antique bronze has taken over the gold and silver coloured jewellery giving rings and necklaces a great vintage look.<br />

Top coats are usually clear and used to set your finished manicure. However, Butter London offer a way to add top coat that will transform your manicure into something much more exciting!!<br />
<br />

<br />
First up is 'Hen Party'. A sheer neutral lacquer that adds a nude opal overtone to your nails. Works best with pastel pinks and nudes/<br />
then there's 'Knackered'. A brilliantly fun name for a sheer shimmery blue duo chrome lacquer that works perfectly with blues and greens.<br />
Last, but by no means least, is their Matte Finish Top Coat which of course will transform any manicure to this seasons hottest shine free trend.<br />

I have many various holo's as I'm such a huge fan of the shimmering spectra flair look, so when Color Club launched their new summer Holographic shades I was keen to try a pink holo of theirs called 'Miss Bliss'<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<strong> </strong><br />
<strong> </strong>The application of this polish is near perfect! It took just one coat with no streaking or running!Drying time was fairly quick ( about 10 minutes with top coat).The finish is an ultra high shimmer and gloss.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<strong> </strong><br />
<strong style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="IMG_20130530_153112 (608x810)" class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-373" data-mce-src="http://www.melodymoo.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/IMG_20130530_153112-608x810-225x300.jpg" height="300" src="http://www.melodymoo.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/IMG_20130530_153112-608x810-225x300.jpg" width="225" /></strong>Miss Bliss is not the sparkliest of the holographics I have tried I have to admit, but it still offers a luscious sparkle and shine.<br />
<strong> </strong><br />
<strong> </strong><br />
<strong> </strong><br />
<strong> </strong><br />
<strong> </strong><br />
<strong> </strong><br />
<strong style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="IMG_20130530_153053 (608x810)" class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-371" data-mce-src="http://www.melodymoo.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/IMG_20130530_153053-608x810-225x300.jpg" height="300" src="http://www.melodymoo.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/IMG_20130530_153053-608x810-225x300.jpg" width="225" /></strong><strong></strong><br />
<strong></strong><br />
<strong></strong><br />
<strong></strong><br />
<strong></strong><br />
<strong></strong><br />
<strong></strong><br />
<strong></strong><br />
<strong></strong><br />
<strong></strong><br />
<strong></strong><br />
As you can see I also took a picture with the flash to try to capture just how amazing and shimmery this polish was, as I feel the other pics don't do it justice!<br />
Despite it being slightly less vibrant than the other Holographics from Color Club that I have tried, I still absolutely adore Miss Bliss! I have worn it numerous times and use it as my 'go to' sparkly polish for a quick smooth manicure.<br />

<strong></strong><br />
<strong></strong><br />
<strong></strong><br />
<strong></strong><br />
<strong></strong><br />
<strong></strong><br />
<strong></strong><br />

<strong></strong><br />
<strong></strong><br />
<strong></strong><br />
<strong></strong><br />
<strong></strong><br />
<strong></strong><br />
<strong></strong><br />
<strong>Step 6</strong>: To finish add small black triangle blobs within the white triangles and once dry apply top coat.<br />
<br />
There you have it! A simple Ikat pattern to your nails. You can combine different colour combinations too.<br />

Part of the new Summer 2013 Sunsational Collection! This is a gorgeous turquoise crème. With summer here I wanted a really bright luscious turquoise and this did not disappoint!<br />

<br />
<br />
The shade is a vibrant and beautiful turquoise blue that goes on as a crème and dries with a high shine smooth finish.<br />
Too Yacht to Handle applies like all other China Glazes. Simple application with a slightly thin brush and formula can sometimes be a tad runny. But overall, the application is smooth and the polish has a standard dry time (15- 45 mins depending on how many coats have been applied).<br />

Paint your nails in chosen colour until almost dry (may need one or two coats depending on your polish).<br />
<br />
<br />
2. Apply Matte top coat quickly to your nails (or you may prefer to do one nail at a time).<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<a data-mce-href="http://www.melodymoo.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/IMG_20130320_162011-810x608.jpg" href="http://www.melodymoo.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/IMG_20130320_162011-810x608.jpg" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="IMG_20130320_162011 (810x608)" class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-326" data-mce-src="http://www.melodymoo.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/IMG_20130320_162011-810x608-300x225.jpg" height="150" src="http://www.melodymoo.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/IMG_20130320_162011-810x608-300x225.jpg" width="200" /></a><br />
3. Leave for few minutes, then whilst nails are still soft (but not wet or tacky!) take your floss pick and is the floss like a saw to create a criss cross effect.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a data-mce-href="http://www.melodymoo.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/IMG_20130320_162617-810x608.jpg" href="http://www.melodymoo.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/IMG_20130320_162617-810x608.jpg" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="IMG_20130320_162617 (810x608)" class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-327" data-mce-src="http://www.melodymoo.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/IMG_20130320_162617-810x608-300x225.jpg" src="http://www.melodymoo.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/IMG_20130320_162617-810x608-300x225.jpg" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
4. Using the dotting tool and a small amount of clear polish or nail glue ( and I mean small or it will seep onto the matte and make parts shiny). carefully place caviar beads onto the corners of the criss cross to complete your quilted nails.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
There you have it, very simple quilted nails!<br />
Don't worry if you don't get it right straight away, it took me a couple of tries when I first started. The key to getting this right is to get the nails dried just enough to not be wet or tacky, yet not enough to be completely dry, which can take some practice and really does depend on the nail polish that it used as they all vary and have different drying times.</span><br />Melody Moohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14140414372753101186noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2872221405711758866.post-89066916049753721502013-07-13T05:34:00.001-07:002013-07-13T05:54:41.094-07:00Nails Inc Leather Effect Bling It On Review<span style="font-family: Georgia;">So I've been intrigued by the leather effect trend so I decided to buy Nails Inc Bling It On Leather Effect polish in Black.<br />

I dubiously placed on the skull and crossbones that comes with the polish set as the 'bling'. I say dubiously because in my experience 3D embellishments often don't stay on long, especially when you're a busy mum and nails go through a lot! But...after a week the skulls were still on!!!<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a data-mce-href="http://www.melodymoo.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/IMG_20130622_151243.jpg" href="http://www.melodymoo.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/IMG_20130622_151243.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><img alt="IMG_20130622_151243" class="size-medium wp-image-308 aligncenter" data-mce-src="http://www.melodymoo.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/IMG_20130622_151243-300x225.jpg" height="225" src="http://www.melodymoo.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/IMG_20130622_151243-300x225.jpg" width="300" /></span></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><img alt="" class="mceWPmore mceItemNoResize" data-mce-src="http://www.melodymoo.co.uk/blog/wp-includes/js/tinymce/plugins/wordpress/img/trans.gif" src="http://www.melodymoo.co.uk/blog/wp-includes/js/tinymce/plugins/wordpress/img/trans.gif" title="More..." /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">I'll start with the nails!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">I picked up some <strong>Quick Nail Drying Spray</strong>. I find it can sometimes be quite handy at drying certain nail polishes.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><strong>Sally Hansen Nail Polish Remover</strong>.My saviour! I have tried all kinds of polish remover from acetone bottles, wipes, sponge pots and nothing works as brilliantly as this! So quick to remove and wins the battle against glitter too!!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><strong>Saffron Gold and Silver Glitter polishes</strong>. I love using chunky glitter in my gradient manicures, so this was a re-stock.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><strong>Barry M 'Lychee'</strong>. A gorgeous nude which is really a big trend at the moment.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><strong>Rimmel London 'Temptation Green'</strong>. I don't have many greens and picked this up from the £1 shop, so it was obviously very cheap!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><strong>La Femme 'Green Tea'</strong>. A shimmery mint polish. I love mint nail polish so I definitely couldn't refuse!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">For the rest of the Beauty Haul...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">I picked up some deodorant <strong>'So...Kiss Me?'</strong>. It's not my usual body spray as I've always used Impulse 'Temptation', but I have on occasion had this one and love the smell and fancied a change!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">I got some make-up: <strong>Boots No7</strong> powder and foundation; <strong>Mac</strong> Eyeliner pen and Mac Eyebrow pen.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><strong>Soap & Glory!!!</strong> If you only ever buy one fragrance and skincare ever again make it this one!!! The scent of their products is divine!!!!! I bought Body Moisturiser, some Hand Food Moisturiser and some Hand Gel. LOVE!!!!!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">The patterned item you see is actually a <strong>Midi Pencil Skirt</strong> I picked up. I really really love pencil skirts. It was a bargain at only £5 with bold prints and patterns huge at the moment in fashion!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Well that's it for now! I'm sure I'll be having another shopping haul soon!!</span>Melody Moohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14140414372753101186noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2872221405711758866.post-14916630637399248162013-07-05T08:19:00.001-07:002013-07-05T08:19:10.255-07:00xBeautyLusciouSx: ♥ Melody Moo, Antique Bronze Stud Earrings & Ring ...<a href="http://xbeautylusciousx.blogspot.com/2013/07/melody-moo-antique-bronze-stud-earrings.html?spref=bl">xBeautyLusciouSx: ♥ Melody Moo, Antique Bronze Stud Earrings & Ring ...</a>: Hey everyone.

<strong>Step 1</strong>: Apply striping tape diagonally across nails.</div>
<div data-mce-style="text-align: left;" style="text-align: left;">
<strong>Step 2</strong>: Apply fuchsia to bottom half of nail and white to the top half of the nail.</div>

<div data-mce-style="text-align: left;" style="text-align: left;">
<strong>Step 3</strong>: Once dry, remove striping tape.</div>

<div data-mce-style="text-align: left;" style="text-align: left;">
<strong>Step 5</strong>: Using a 'glob' of black polish, use the dotting tool to add polka dots to the white of the nails.</div>

<div data-mce-style="text-align: left;" style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div data-mce-style="text-align: left;" style="text-align: left;">
<strong>Step 6</strong>: Apply top coat to the nails once they are dry and you're done!</div>
<div data-mce-style="text-align: left;" style="text-align: left;">
Simple nail art! I also used Silver polish and Glitter for an accent nail.</div>

Launched on April 2013, this new brand is the vision of Yvette Snowden, a cosmetics entrepreneur who wanted to introduce a nail product with added vitamins and nourishing ingredients.<br />
The new formula is a '3 added' lacquer brand with the shades containing Vitamin E, Argon Oil and Ginko Biloba. The lacquer is also free from toxins including formaldehyde and DPP (dibutyl phthalate).<br />
Not only that but the extensive research behind the products has managed to bring us an innovative colour solution with a high pigmented formula, giving higher colour percentage. And the cherry on top for this nourishing, non-toxic, colourful brand is that it of course is a cruelty free company.<br />
Wow! This sounds like a really good product and I cannot wait to try it out. This may set a trend for other polish brands to take note and follow in Eve Snow's footsteps of bringing us a less toxic and much more nourishing nail polish. I'm a big fan of natural skincare products and cosmetics and they have a large market, so it's about time a polish brand came along and brought out something more nourishing. <br />

So I came across this whilst out on a nail haul a few weeks ago and thought that I would give it a try. It claims to have '5 steps of a manicure in 1 bottle' :<img alt="" class="mceWPmore mceItemNoResize" data-mce-src="http://www.melodymoo.co.uk/blog/wp-includes/js/tinymce/plugins/wordpress/img/trans.gif" src="http://www.melodymoo.co.uk/blog/wp-includes/js/tinymce/plugins/wordpress/img/trans.gif" title="More..." /><br />
<ul>
<li>Base Coat.</li>
<li>Strengthener.</li>
<li>Growth Treatment.</li>
<li>Colour.</li>
<li>Top Coat.</li>
</ul>
It also boasts to be chip-resistant for up to 10 days and the formula has Patented Micro-Encapsulated time-release Technology.<br />
<a data-mce-href="http://www.melodymoo.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/20130602_200804-Copy-349361581.jpg" href="http://www.melodymoo.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/20130602_200804-Copy-349361581.jpg"><img alt="20130602_200804 - Copy (349361581)" class="size-medium wp-image-133 aligncenter" data-mce-src="http://www.melodymoo.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/20130602_200804-Copy-349361581-224x300.jpg" height="300" src="http://www.melodymoo.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/20130602_200804-Copy-349361581-224x300.jpg" width="224" /></a><br />
The shade I applied is named 'Barely Blue Bell', a deep mint shade.<br />
I was actually pleasantly surprised by this polish! I know that it boasts to be a good manicure polish, but having tried so many top branded 'chip-free long lasting' polishes and having them all fail, I must admit I didn't have high hopes for poor Sally.<br />
The application was ultra-smooth and I only needed one coat!! It gave great full coverage and I was amazed at how quickly it dried! The finish gave me a strong, glossy manicure.<br />
Now the reason that I turned to this polish was because I was facing a very busy week and knew that I wouldn't have time to do my nails. I have a business to run, a house to clean and a very active 1 year old to see to, so the wear and tear on my nails is usually quite harsh (washing, cleaning ,baby, shopping etc). The Sally Hansen Manicure definitely passed the test!! Most of my manicures only last a day or two, but Sally came through for me!<br />

<br />
After 8 days of wear ( I had to take it off to do a nail tutorial) my nails were still going strong and looked shiney. I had a couple of barely noticeable chips ( from hedge trimming!) but that was it.<br />
The only disadvantage I found was that when I came to remove the polish one of my nails was slightly stained a green mint colour in the corner, which came off after more remover.<br />
I would give Sally Hansen Complete Manicure 8/10 and will definitely be buying more!<br />

So I tend to have a habit of buying a lot of nail polish, I mean a lot of it is for my business, but some of it I just can't resist buying for myself. <br />
In May I had quite a large shopping nail haul and wanted to share with you my epic purchases...<br />
<a data-mce-href="http://www.melodymoo.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/IMG_20130523_131246.jpg" href="http://www.melodymoo.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/IMG_20130523_131246.jpg"><img alt="IMG_20130523_131246" class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-41" data-mce-src="http://www.melodymoo.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/IMG_20130523_131246-300x225.jpg" height="225" src="http://www.melodymoo.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/IMG_20130523_131246-300x225.jpg" width="300" /></a>First part of my nail haul are these cute mini candy neon's I found by Cairuo in Blue, Orange, Greentea, Lilac and Strawberry. I love mint colours so love the look of the Greentea and the colours are bang on trend.<br />
<br />

I picked up Nails Inc Collection with New Compton Street, Lisle Street and Sheraton Street which offer lovely peach, pink and concrete blue shades; Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure in Barely Blue Bell, a luscious deep peppermint shade; Topshop's peel off nail polish called On The Blink, a gorgeous electric blue that I love! And finally Rimmel by Kate in New Romantic, a luscious baby pink with hint of shimmer.<br />
