NOTD - FOA Colour Pro Nail Enamel in Scream & Australis top coat in Speck-tacular

Sometimes you just need a break from the pastel polishes, and so when I was getting a little bored I found myself faced with black. Black!

 Let me just give you a bit of background information. Black nail polish terrifies me and is something that I have never tried in my life, and prior to the FOA Glitterati polishes, glitter was terribly scary too. To have combined the two and actually like the outcome is a big deal.

I tried so hard to capture the beauty of this Australis polish and I still don't think I did it justice. It is one of those polishes that I could stare at all day and I don't feel its 'wow factor' would ever wear off.

Having said all of that, I think perhaps my favourite part about these polishes was the ease at which I was able to remove them, considering they were a) black and b) glittery. I am so, so impressed.

    1. Thank you! It is amazing how it looks so plain and in fact quite ugly in the bottle but then on your nails it is incredible!

    1. It looks stunning on black. I haven't really explored using it on other colours but I don't know that there would be much point because it is just so darn lovely on black!
