Nails Of The Day: Dior Pandore. Forever Red.
I am the biggest red manicure fan ever, and quite frankly red nail polish is one of my favourite makeup product, it feels very me. And while I have been a huge fan of Max Factor Cerise, and used up 3 bottles of it, I’ve decided to treat myself to some high end red nail polishes.
So please meet these beauties: YSL 6 Red Dada and 754 Dior Pandore.
I would say that Dior nail polishes are probably my favourite high end ones, I love the wide and thin brush, the formula and the application. Below I am wearing
Christmas Gift Guide: Nail Polish Sets
I have already posted quite a few Christmas Gift Guides, and there are more to come…

Want It: Nailberry Nail Polish
As I’ve posted last month, it’s all about red and berry nail polishes for me now. I am browsing all the different nail polish collections, and nothing calls out my name. In fact the only nail polish on my wish list is Marc Jacob’s Lola (it is already mine!).
That was until I discovered Nailberry!
It is a relatively new 4 free (Free of Formaldehyde, Toluene, DBP and Camphor. It is also cruelty free) nail polish brand from the UK.
It has probably the coolest design for a nail polish ever, very chic and sophisticated. Cool name, nice front, simple black and white label and elegant bottle.
And, of course, with the name Nailberry you would expect some

Nude Nail Polishes: Dior, Ciate, butter LONDON, Yves Rocher, Rimmel and MeMeMe
For someone who is not exactly into “nude” nail polishes, I have quite a few. I have chosen seven which could fit the nude/taupe/brown-ish category.
So what shades do I have? And which is my favourite?
Dior Vernis in Grege
I love the wide and thin brush which makes the application super easy and fast. It is a beautiful warm shade which suits me when I get some tan. But if you have a light-to-medium warm skin tone – this may be a perfect nude for you. See it applied on the nails.
MeMeMe Long Lasting Gloss in Alluring
This is one of the darkest nail polishes from the selection, and should be a nice nude for people with darker skin. Or if you want a brown nail polish against the light skin. The quality is nice for the price, too. Swatches.
Yves Rocher Nail Polish in Taupe
This is definitely not a nude, but a taupe. Such shade was super popular several years ago and I can totally see why: it goes well with pretty much everything and doesn’t compete with your outfit or accessories. Manicure with it.
MeMeMe Long Lasting Gloss in Ambitious
It looks like that
