Essie Mint Candy Apple and Some Sparkle

Next up in my line of Essie polishes is Mint Candy Apple. I'm sure you've seen this one before, I know I have and I've wanted it for so long! I tried to talk myself out of it because I thought it looked very similar to Barry M Mint Green but it's actually quite a lot lighter, I'll compare them one day.

The flowers and twirly bits (thumb only) are from Konad plate M51 in Konad Princess Polish White. I added a couple of green rhinestones from Art Deco Nails to the middle of the flowers on the thumb and ring fingers. I was going to leave the flowers alone but then I was going to a wedding party and decided to add a bit of sparkle.

It's such a gorgeous colour I'm so glad I didn't manage to talk myself out of it :)

Nubar Reclaim with Chez Delaney plate in Konad Princess Polish Jungle Green.

I'm not loving it, the leaf print does not look like leaves more just mottled, I did want to do it in gold but I tried using China Glaze 2030 and it wouldn't work in the tiny little lines.

This is the plate so you can see what it's supposed to look like:

Nubar Reclaim NOTD

I love green nail varnish. I know some people don't like it, especially as a nail colour, but I adore it and this one is fabulous.

This is my first holo and my first Nubar varnish that I've tried and I think it's amaaaaazing, look how shiny it is!

This is one of my more expensive varnishes as Nubar does seem to be in the higher price range. They have such a fantastic range on colours and I'm hoping to try more soon. I wish there was more availability in the UK.
