Pay Day Temptations


If I didn't know before today I was a nail polish addict, today I have one proof my love for nail polishes has reached uncontrollable heights. I've just indulged in a models own half price sale (my polishes have reached me safely 2 days afterwards!) I've not played with them yet and I want some more. Let me share with you what I've now got my heart on.


These polishes are from the Models Own Professional Range, which is a little bit pricier than the normal range: £8 per bottle as opposed to £ 5, for the traditional range


The Models Own Professional justifies their prices as it is "specially formulated to both assist nail growth and prolong colour, preventing any fading. Added benefits of the premium range include vitamin E and UV sun filters to protect the nail". The added benefits do sound very nice but at the end of the day it's still £8.


This another bootleg press release picture, showing of the very well kept stand of Models Own Professional range in the Boots shop in a town near me.

and these are the shades which got me drooling in particular.

I need to hang in my head in shame as I wrote the information about the first polish incorrectly and looking back at my notes, there is no way that this polish can be called 'Stark Naked' and be a nude beige with a golden shimmer. My guess is that this one is called ‘Lavender Blue’. ‘Pinky Pearl’ is a rather odd name for this sumptuous shade of shimmer reddy rusty orange shade. ‘Sunny Honey’ is a shimmery golden yellow and Clay Away is gorgeous shade of khaki.

If money grew on trees, those beauties would be what I would have loved to spend my pennies on. Boots have a got a special 'triple points 'offer on, especially for the bank holiday week end but I shall be good and resist... until there is hopefully another 3 for 2 offer on these polishes. If you do happen to know the name of pale lilac polish, please let me know!




Will you be splurging at Boots this week end?

The one on the far left looks like lavender blue though from your picture it looks very grey in colour. I love the simplicity of these botttles, can't wait for more reviews!

I saw these yesterday in my boots but i think the stand has been totally neglected as all the bottles have a layer of dust on the top! Shame though because it's such a nice brand xxx

I didn't even know there was a Models Own professional range! All my local Boots are too small to stock...

Already did a mini splurge this weekend but I think there is a minimum spend on the triple points deal, maybe mistaken.

hmmm i dunno £8 for a nail polish... can i really justify that? probably not, but i'll be putting some of these on my xmas/birthday list xx

I'm very jealous, none of my Boots stock the models own professional range so I haven't had a chance to look at these. Can't wait to see what you think of them xx

We got our first Models Own in a swap recently. Didn't know they had a Pro line though.
