MY 3 CURRENT FAVOURITE WINTER NAIL POLISHES

You will never see me with chipped nails or even worse without nail colour on my fingernails and after all these years, I would feel utterly naked with bare nails and the same goes for my toenails. 

I have several brands that I always gravitate towards and I look within these brands for colours that I like, rather than being attracted to colours in another brand. 

My go to brand for many years has been Essie and over the past 3 years or so I have built up both a good collection and a love for the UK brand nailsinc. 

(Unfortunately nailsinc is no longer available in South Africa, but my UK Kiddiewink feeds my nailsinc passion)

The weather in Durban has cooled somewhat and my summer nail colours have made way for more Wintry shades, that I can wear with most outfits, however they will still look good on the beautiful sunny warm Durban winter days.

These are my current 3 favourites:

nailsinc - Porchester Square

essence - Girl With A Pearl

essie - Merino Cool

nailsinc Porchester Square - essence Girl With A Pearl - essie Merino Cool

Today I am wearing an essence High Gloss nail polish from their recently launched 

ALL THAT GREYS Collection. 

The colour is a slightly off white/grey colour and this is a budget brand that I am going to try more polishes from, as they offer both value and quality for only R39.95

 (Below is only 2 coats, although I do prefer to apply 3 coats as with most colours that I apply)

essence - Girl With A Pearl

FRIDAY FINDS - ESSENCE ALL THAT GREYS

I have found some really affordable goodies for this weeks "Friday Finds" post.

I must say I do love a grey tone nail polish for winter, especially as I tend to wear more black and grey and these 3 shades of grey (R39.95) caught my eye from the newly launched Essence Trend Edition called

 "All That Greys".

The entire collection is inspired by the roaring twenties where shades of grey are matched with rosy red shades. 

If it's time to update your look this winter, then check out the whole collection currently available in 
selected Clicks countrywide and in Dischem's from the 1st July.

I thought I would share some of my favourites.

Time to Grey Up

 I also love this Rose, Red & Grey eyeshadow palette which offers seven soft, powdery textured shades, all with high coverage.
This would be a palette where I would make use of every colour, unlike some where there is always a couple that I don't like hence I don't use. 
This eyeshadow palette retails for 
R96.50

The soft rosewood colour of this lip gloss looks like it was made for me.

It has high coverage with a glossy finish and retails for only

R39.95
