Leighton Denny: Diamond Diva

Leighton Denny: Diamond Diva

Silver metallic shimmer

Here's another find from a visit to TK Maxx on one of my holidays. Diamond Diva is super sparkly and shiny and very pretty.

The formula is good too and easy to apply. I used two coats for my manicure today. The drying time is good.

I applied nail stickers to the middle and the ring finger. I made pink brush strokes on all the nails with Models Own's "Oval Plum". I brushed on a bit of black glitter too with Sally Hansen's "Ruffle".

Here's the final result, including a layer of topcoat.

I really like this mix of colours and effects.

This is "Diamond Diva" alone; two coats and no topcoat. It's super sparkly!

Deep magenta with pink sparkly shimmer

Here's another of my beautiful finds from TK Maxx. It is bought as a set of polishes and I'm working on showing them all to you. I showed you a gorgeous red polish called "Gem Stone Buzz" and a beautiful golden shimmer called "Golden Girl" already.

The formula is super good and I used two easy coats for full opacity. The drying time is good.

I stamped flowers on it. The stamp is from the stamping plate "Nicole Diary-L03" and I stamped with a pink stamping polish from Born Pretty Store.

This is the final result, including a layer of topcoat.

I love the colour combo!

Here's "Heat Wave" alone; two coats and no topcoat. Look how beautiful it is!

Gold packed with sparkly shimmer

The polish that I'm wearing today is another great find from TK Maxx. It is bought as a set of polishes and I'm going to show you them all over the next couple of days. I showed you the first one yesterday, a gorgeous red polish called "Gem Stone Buzz".

The formula is super good and I used two easy coats for full opacity. The drying time is good.

I stamped snowflakes on it. They are from the stamping plate "UR Beautiful-16" and I stamped with Max Factor's "Burgundy Crush".

This is the final result, including a layer of topcoat.

I really like the red on the gold, I think it's gorgeous!

Classic red crème

Today's polish is another great find in TK Maxx. It is bought as a set of polishes and I'm going to show you them all over the next couple of days.

"Gem Stone Buzz" is a beautiful and sexy red. The formula is really good and I used two easy coats for full opacity. It's so pigmented that you definitely don't want to get it on your cuticles! I did, obviously, and it took a bit of work to get that off again. Anyway, the drying time is good.

I placed cute little stickers on my nails and topped it with Catrice's holo glitter topper "Whatever You Are, Be Sparkling".

This is the final result, including a layer of topcoat.

The glitter topper is way more dense than I expected, but I really like the end result anyway.

Here's "Gem Stone Buzz" alone; two coats and no topcoat. Look how beautiful and shiny it is!
