M.A.C. Bad Fairy

Hi everyone! Today I have a classic polish from 2010 to show you. I'll apologise right away because it was LE and HTF. This is M.A.C. Bad Fairy from the Venomous Villains collection. I searched for this one for a while and ended up getting it a few years ago thanks to my wonderful friend Jen at My Nail Polish Obsession.

Bad Fairy is a metallic glass-fleck polish with a magenta base which shifts to red, burgundy and golden shades. I absolutely love this polish and it was well worth hunting for it. I ended up wearing it alone because it just didn't need anything else! The formula was good as well and I used 2 coats plus topcoat.

What do you think of this one? Do you have it? 

As previously mentioned, Bad Fairy is no longer available but M.A.C. do come out with something stunning every once in a while in terms of polish. I may not buy their polishes regularly, but when I do, I'm not disappointed!

A England Russian Soul Stamping

Hi everyone! Today I have a simple stamped mani for you using two polishes from the A England Russian Soul collection! 

I swatched this collection when it came out and absolutely loved it and I've been enjoying using some of the colours for nail art as well. If you missed my swatches, you can check out my post here.

The formula of A England polishes is generally perfect and I've yet to try to stamp with one and it not work. For this mani I started out with 2 coats of Natasha's Dance War & Peace, a rich black holographic with a hint of blue to it. I then stamped using a swirl image from the MoYou Sailor 06 plate and A England Kalinka.

As you can see, Kalinka stamps really well. I will definitely be using this for more stamping in the future. I'm guilty of getting stuck in a stamping rut of silver and gold but this is a nice alternative! As always, I finished off my mani with topcoat.
