Models Own Mirror Ball Collection......

Now as you all know, I love Glitter and sparkle, I also love Nail polish, so when Models Own announced and previewed the Mirror Ball collection, I knew it was one that I would like to add to my collection.

The collection has a total of 5 polishes, all named after 70 dance tunes.

Super cool, hehehe.

I got the polishes from Models Own website Link here....

There was an offer to get all 5 polishes, plus a 3 in 1 clear base, top coat all for the price of £20!! I couldnt resist and placed my order.

Models own always have fantastic offers on, so definitely check them out!!!

I have shown you Hot stuff on both my Instagram (MariaSparkle19) and my YouTube, I have posted the video with a over view of all the polishes below. I will be doing NOTD with all of the beautiful polishes over the next few weeks!!!!!
