The Models Own collections are coming thick and fast aren't they?! That's why this week is dedicated to the joys of nail polish. Over the next five days, I have five blog posts (including this one) dedicated entirely to nail polish. The Artstix Duo's have been around for a while now and it's about time that Models Own introduced four new colours and four new nail effects to the already extensive collection. 

The wonderful (and quite annoying) thing about these polishes is that you can't buy them as single shades - you can only get your hands on them through the Artstix Elements Collection. However, the polishes do have their own names so I'm hoping Models Own separates them soon as there are some I'd love to have full size.

The collection has been inspired by the elements - fire, air, water and earth - and each polish comes with its own base coat and top coat. If you go ahead and own the entire collection, you can mix and match accordingly to match your mood. I believe that Pink Crystal and Ember Glow would look beautiful on top of Cloud 9 - I must try those combinations out. 

I adore these polishes and I think that they're a great way for nail novices like myself. They add a little extra oomph to your manicure and really make your nails look beautiful. My favourite has to be Cloud Drops - when you add the gold glitter over the top, my oh my... perfection. Ember Red is also stunning and such a perfect collaboration for the autumn months. 

The polishes retail for £6.00 each and are available from the Models Own Bottleshop, the Models Own websiteBoots stores and Superdrug stores now.

What are your thoughts on this collection? Which polish combination is your favourite?
