  • The best of 2010

    So here we are  – New Year’s Eve! I can’t believe it’s here already. But what better chance to show you all my favourite polishes of the year? 2010 has been a fantastic year for Just Nice Things – moving to our own URL, attending some fantastic events, introducing you to some hot men, and of…

  • Diamond Cosmetics – Canyon Sunrise

    Behold….one of the most-loved polishes I have in my entire collection. This was a gift from the lovely Kitty Luvs Color last year. She had placed an order for Diamond Cosmetics and decided that this one just wasn’t her, so passed it on to me. And for that, I am extremely grateful as I absolutely…

  • The great grurple comparison post

    I know I promised this a month or so back…but there hasn’t been a lot of time for swatching recently. As you know, I always paint my nails, wear the polish for a day or two, and tke the photos at some point during that time. One of the blogosphere’s little swatchers I am not!…

  • Dark Holographic Comparisons

    I wish the sun hadn’t gone in the moment I decided to do some swatches for this post! A quick one for you today, showcasing a comparison of the four dark holographic polishes I own. I already blogged about Revvvolution here but the rest of these polishes will get their own moment in the spotlight in…

  • Diamond Cosmetics – Dirty & Flirty

    Once in a while a polish comes along that I love above and beyond the rest of my collection. I know I’m fickle and that the obsession lasts about as long as the manicure itself but there is no denying that this was a massive lemming of mine. It seems like Diamond Cosmetics have been…

  • Diamond Cosmetics: Seafoam Spray

    Seafoam Spray was one that I’d eyed on a few other blogs recently but held out buying as I’ve been bitten by various mint greens of late, as you know. Lobster red hands just don’t do it for me and so I’ve been nervous about a lot of these types of colours. Thankfully, Seafoam Spray…

  • Diamond Cosmetics Twinkle Twinkle Periwinkle

    First things first, I have indeed cut my nails. Well, they were re-shaped for me during the Jessica manicure I had during London Fashion Week, and so are now a lot shorter but more of a uniform length, as you can see. Daft name aside, this is a very nice nail varnish by Diamond Cosmetics…

  • Nude Polish Comparisons

    I was asked a while back to put this post together, and today was the first time in a long time that I actually had a free afternoon in which to attack it. So here you are. Some nudes, some taupes, some sheers. Each polish is three to four coats. No commentary, but if you…

  • Diamond Cosmetics Amethyst & Diamonds

    Ooh!  Isn’t this lovely?  This sparkly lilac number was kindly sent to me by Jennifer of Flashy Nails.  It’s a new colour to the Diamond Cosmetics range and it’s quite a sizzler with its rainbow-esque holo glitter.  There also isn’t anything quite like this elsewhere on the market and it won’t put a dent in…
