Okay so here are the polishes which won't be restocked:
The Jellies - full set

New stock? I have some ideas which I want to test out and hopefully release in a  month or so. I also have a colour which I created when I very first started mixing called Belle's Lullabie which I have been itching to release for a while now but didn't have a collection based around it. But then I thought, Hey this is my shop, my polish thee off my rules! 

I am also looking to set up my listing for NI Polish Kits!! They will maybe be in the shop on Sunday, depending on how knackered I am after being at the stables all morning. 

P.S can you tell I found out how to put stuff in bold and italics on my phone tonight inspirers?

Sit and Breath!

Is it bad that my seemingly only sit down of the day is at my second job? Hmm...

Well today has been rather hectic to say the least! Working at the stables and sorting Belle, going home via the pub to book a tables for Sunday, mad dash home to pack an order and a prize, stop at the post office to send said packages and now sat at work blogging....can I go to bed now please? No? I have to work here till midnight? Urg great!! 

In brighter news I have booked Nails Inspire in for 2 Christmas fairs :D exciting stuff I know! 
Also the last Christmas polish has been mixed and bottled:


I'm leaving the colours secret untill it's release on the 1st of November ;) mean I know! 
Also I have my new bottles:


This means I can restock Touch of Pazaz in my etsy shop!! I love the new bottles, but what do you think?

Bye Inspirers, Keep Dreaming!!

Talk Glitter To Me...

Let's just get things straight, glitter is amazing! With all if the colours, sizes, shapes, mattes and so on the glitter combos you can create is mind boggling!
But what do you like? What glitter combos do you want to wear? That colours? Do you want a mixture of sizes and shades or random mixes? 
I fall in love with some of my glitter combos but that doesn't always mean that will be favourites with my lovely customers!

So what would you like to see? Tell my your favourite colour combos and what you want to see!

**SOLD OUT** Hang on, Pardon?

I just got a message on my etsy that one of my polishes has sold out...one moment just let that sink in for me. Sold...out...WOAH!! I set my shop up a week ago today and already 1 of my polishes has sold out! That's pretty staggering in any measure. I'm over the moon! So I would like to say thank you to all you lovely guys out there who have bought one of my polishes!

Ideas, Please Form An Orderly Queue! Thank You!

  I have ideas just flooding my mind at the moment! From the first idea (kiwi) to the last (lemon and lime) the jellies collection took about 3 months. In the space of 2 mornings of mixing I came up 3 polishes from my Christmas collection with the last idea coming from a friend just a couple of days later. In just 2 days I mixed up my Top Effects collection and the only reason it not on my shop is that I'm a numpty and ran out of bottles! I now have new ideas for more glitter top coats and still have 3 releases to organize and take photos for!

So if all my ideas would like to form a nice orderly queue in order of brilliancy that would be just great!

Productive mess and bleeding glitter!


There is nothing better than a productive mess! So that is exactly what I did this morning! I was playing around with glitters, pigments and thermals! There will be a stunning thermal released once I have figured out the rest of the line so watch this space! 
Although the down side to this mornings mess makes was I found that some of my glitters bleed :( I'm heart broken!! For the people who don't know what that means, it is when the glitter loses it's colour once it has been placed in the polish base :( it can sometimes leave a lovely effect but other times ruin your polish :(. So my holo pink, red and purple shall be put in my gels kit to be used for nail art, not a total waste then :).

I'm Sorry Bank Balance!!

I have been on a bit of a frenzy over the last 2 weeks, I really should apologise to my poor bank balance! 
It was sparked by a bright idea for a thermal polish, but I could just buy 1 colour! Also there was a stunning chemo I just had to have (and have just red that chemo is in this season, I'm psychic!). Then there was the glitter, in colours I was missing so they had to be bought! Plus the holographic fuchsia which went lovely with silver and the red was just so sparkly!! Plus the glitter for the H4H polish as I had nothing suitable! 
I think I have a problem!! I'm trying to go cold turkey but not sure how it will last as I have just seen a black holographic which I HAVE TO HAVE!! 

Hello my name is Kim and I'm a glitter addict!!

My Hero!

So I have decided to create a polish which takes on the colours of the charity Help For Hero's. I have a great amount of love and respect for all of the armed forces and feel that H4H does amazing work! I also have a very close friend who joined the RAF and I couldn't be more proud of him!! 

The polish will be just glitter taking the colours royal blue, pale blue and red. Here is a sneak preview of the glitters that I will be using: 

 
The polish, if you hadn't guessed, will be called "My Hero!" For each bottle bought I will be giving £2 to the charity. The glitter will be arriving in the next week or so so watch this space for the release date!

Keeping Busy and Big Steps Forward!

So today was a big day for NI, the first full collection was sent off to a UK blogger to be swatched and reviewed! The lovely Tips and Top Coats is swatching for me and I can't wait to see the results! I'll post a link to her blog at the bottom!
I have also designed my labels and have sent the image away to be printed!! Very exited to be releasing my first collection in just a few weeks!!

I am currently having to sit on my hands to prevent myself from going glitter crazy! I have glitters on order but I'm trying to to buy any more glitters and pigments before my current orders arrive! Some that are on order are magical and thermal so watch out for my thermals release in the next few months!!
