Nails I Love
ESSENCE NAIL TWINS – Bella & Edward
Hiiiii Goddesses
Wow, what a start to the evening! I just got home to find that I have 10 new followers on my Facebook page and 20 – yes, 20! – on my blog. Wow, for a little Crumpet that’s a HUGE day in BlogLand. Thank you to everyone who has joined the subtle madness J
Yesterday, I knew my condemnation of MODELS OWN Aqua Violet would be a little bit controversial, and it was. I am possibly the only person in the universe who hates it lol, but I don’t mind that. I couldn’t *wait* to get it off, and to calm my stressed cuticles I turned to …. 1 of the 3 pairs of Essence Nail Art twins which arrived over the weekend.
I started with Bella & Edward because Beth is obsessed with Twilight. Well, I’ll be honest, I didn’t really have any choice, and as much as I hated Aqua Violet, I have LOVED LOVED LOVED wearing this pair today J I make no apology for spamming the hell out of you with these photos – this is ENTRANCING.
Bella herself is a jade green crème, not particularly shiny. I don’t own any colours like this (as I don’t like green nails lol) but I have found this colour quite arresting, especially with my paler than pale skin.
Edward, ah Edward … he makes me sigh almost as much as does in the films! Well, Edward is just a DELIGHT! He is an amazing glitter-sparkle, a green and silver kaleidoscope, and a holographic hynotiser. Wowzers, he is on FIRE !!!
I don’t think I own a single other polish as glittery as Edward. He is a mix of holographic silver and jade green sparkle – some tiny dots, some medium dots, some medium squares. He catches the light UNIMAGINABLY and is forever twinkling and dancing on your fingers. I have literally been hypnotised by his beauty today. I have found myself staring at my nails over and over. So sooooo beautiful.
The combination of Bella & Edward is breathtaking. There is almost a fluorescence to some of the glitter – it blackens in some lights and gleams with fire in others. It dances in a million different ways.
This polish, Goddesses, is an immortal love.
Enjoy xx J
