NOTD: Neutral Elegance

Nail of the Day: Nails inc. in Basil Street & VoV in Gold. 

(Taken with Flash)

Basil Street is a great nude nail polish for those days where you want something very natural and classy. If you have trouble finding a nude that compliments your skin tone, then I'd definitely recommend checking out this particular shade. The consistency is a little runny so you do have to be careful when applying it, otherwise you do get streaks but the end results are well worth the effort.

 I bought the VoV nail polish while overseas, and I don't think it's a readily available brand in most countries. Nonetheless its a good basic gold nail polish to have because it compliments so many other colours, it's also very easy to work with and dries pretty fast. 

Glee Eyeshadow pallet swatches :)

Late last year I purchased the Glee eyeshadow pallet; at £1.50 they aren't bad eyeshadows (however they aren't amazing. As you can see from the swatches below they are fairly pigmented especially the bottom row, however the tan shade (top row, second from the left) doesn't seem to go on evenly on my eyelids and they all seem to be quiet powdery but this can be resolved by applying them wet. Other than that these are pretty good shadows and I'm looking forward to using this pallet in my upcoming looks :)
