Don't get your "Knickers in a Knot", it's by Australis!

Ah don't you just love Aussie slang... when I first moved to Australia at the age of 12, not only did I not speak any English, let alone speak any Australian English! So a phrase like this would never have made sense to me. 

"Don't get your knickers in a knot, crack a tinnie and bob's yer uncle."

Huh???? My uncle's name is not Bob, my knickers aren't knotted up thank you, and crack a what? Well luckily the 33 year old me can decipher that sentence, which even though sounds English, doesn't make sense at all! Want to find out what it actually means? I'll tell you, only after I show you some pretty pics.

This post isn't about Aussie slang, this post is about a nail polish from the dinky-di (yep, another  slang... means genuine) Aussie brand called Australis and it's named "Knickers in a Knot". Ahhh... that's where the connection is you're probably thinking.

This nailpolish was in one of my goody bags I got at the Australian Beauty Bloggers Weekend (Posted about HERE and sneak peek of the bags given HERE).

I got fully opaque coverage with just 2 coats. I normally use a top coat over it, but I forgot this time, so the polish lasted me 2 days before starting to crack around the sides. With top coat I usually get around 4 days of wear with my polishes.

The colour is a wonderful watermelon red colour, and I know I'll be sporting it on my nails and toes all summer. And the best part about it? It's only $7.95.

So what does that sentence mean? The one at the start of this post? It means..."Don't upset yourself, open a can of cold beer and everything will be fine" 

Have you tried Australis polishes? What colours are you loving now?
