Polish Us Pink: Forbidden Fruit with a Pink Twist

I had a few issues deciding what to do for today's Polish Us Pink organised by the lovely Susan. In the end though, I decided to try a couple of my new receipts: Forbidden Fruit by Pretty Serious and a pink nail art pen from Models Own. I only heard of Pretty Serious Cosmetics fairly recently when I happened upon swatches of VT100. Forbidden Fruit is one of the Pretty Serious polishes I received in a swap with Margaret (thank you!).

Forbidden Fruit is described as a "super glossy white jelly with delicate silver shimmer flecks", and I totally agree. I liked that full opacity was achieved with two coats. I would be happy to wear this colour alone, and normally I would never dream of going out with white nails.

The Models Own pink nail art pen has a pen point, but it also has a striper brush. I own every colour of these now, and recommend them as they're great to work with.

I decided to attempt a little nail art with emphasis on the pink ribbon which is worn in aid of breast cancer awareness.

The photo below is slightly unnecessary, but I like the way the shimmer in Forbiden Fruit is looking :)
