NOTD - Deborah Lippmann Razzle Dazzle


First off.. loving this! I know not everyone was overly enamoured of their December Glossybox but no matter what i got I think this would have won me over. I love me some glitter at Christmas time and having purchased from this brand before I was aware it's NOT CHEAP! I love the special glitter shades from Deborah Lippmann but I've only tried one polish from the brand previously and it chipped so quickly it really put me off trying any others. I have to say though..  after trying this one I'm already chomping at the bit to add to my collection. I've had it on my nails for a couple of days and it's showing very little sign of wear. I already knew that it would look fabulous but if it chips an hour after I've applied it I'm not interested. Glossybox absolutely got it right for me this month. They've made a customer of me where I'd written DL off as a bad job. This is going to be an expensive habit!



The polish is luxuriously dark and festive cranberry shade with an overload of raspberry glitter. I can't think of anything more fitting for the Holidays.

A full sized polish is 15ml and a mini is approx 9ml (I had to do some fl oz - ml calculations as I couldn't find a volume online on any UK site) I think that's a really nice size. For something like this that you wouldn't wear every day the mini size is ideal! FYI The polish on the right is 'Waking Up In Vegas' and the yellow colour shakes out.. it settles like that when it's left to sit.

Have you tried anything from Deborah Lippmann?

Fall & Festive Favourites

A lot of people have requested a "Fall Favourites" video recently with all my favourite nail polishes for this season. As we're coming to the end of Autumn and Winter is fast approaching I thought I'd combine the two in one big, picture heavy post. So here it is.. All the shades I'm drawn to at this (my personal favourite) time of year...

One of my favourite polishes for Winter/Christmas time is this shade from MAC - Bad Fairy. Unfortunately it was limited edition (from the venomous villains collection) so I don't like to use it often but I do think this Miners shade is a pretty good dupe and it's just £2.99! It doesn't quite have the same sparkly impact but I think you'll agree it's very similar.


I did of course film a video for this too.. I will post it below once it's live :)
