These two polishes came in my little polish haul i bought from America. I love both of these colours.
Any Purple/lilac nail polish i just can't resist. Sweet Hook is a pale purple with a pink tone to it. I really do love this colour but found applying it to be a little difficult for some reason and it seemed a little uneven in places. But still apart from that i would wear this polish all the time if it wasn't for the fact i have so many.
Aquadelic is a green/turquoise polish. It dries brighter then it looks in the bottle and has a nice gloss to it once dried. This polished applied alot smoother then Sweet hook and looked more even once dried. I don't have many greens in my collection as my work uniform is a green top so it tends to clash but if i added a silver glitter on top like OPI Pirouette My Whistle i think this colour would look really pretty. The only negative to this colour i found was when i removed the polish i had green stains on the skin around my nails.

Next Nail Polish - Glitter
As i was queueing in Next the other day i noticed they were selling nail polish. There wasn't many colours, only one caught my eye which was a silver/pink/blue glitter and for £3 i thought it was worth a try.
When applying it was a pain, it was very watery and patchy, it took 3 coats to get an even colour and even then on some nails you could still see some patches. The only positive was it did look pretty for the day but chipped very easily. I applied it in the morning and by the evening i had to take it off as it looked horrible with all the chips. I don't know if that was to do with the day i had (lots of tidying up) or its just how the polish is.

Butter London - Lovely Jubbly
This is the first Butter London polish i have purchased. I'm really impressed with it, it's such a different glitter, i've not come across anything similar.
Lovely Jubbly is a red, gold, purple and blue glitter in a magenta base. It really is Lovely Jubbly, it's really sparkly and pretty. I applied this glitter on top of Accessorize one coat Amethyst then applied 2 coats of Lovely Jubbly. This is my second favourite glitter, just below Deborah Lippmans Mermaid's Dream.
The only thing i dislike about this and other glitter polishes is the time it takes to remove them!! the foil method is a must of these type of glitters.
