CHRISTMAS IS HERE

Hey guys,

The Christmas season is upon us, I have purchased fairy lights and Christmas presents and my list has been sent off to Santa. It's officially time to paint my nails for the festive season.

This first mani was a quick one that I did just before a night out - the picture is taken from my phone because I didn't have time to photograph properly before it got smudged and chipped :(. The blue used in this is W7 - Blue Mirror and I love it!

The next mani that I will show is my most recent one (it's still on my nails). One of friends urged me to create Rudolph nails - so I did.

Colours used are:

Rimmel Lasting Finish - Double Decker Red

Nails Inc - Cadogan Gate

Sinful Colours - Easy Going

Barry M - Mushroom

Revlon - Hot for Chocolate

Rio Stripers - black, white and red

And that's the beginning of my Christmassy nail art. Expect quite a few more posts this month because it's one of my favourites and there are so many designs that I already have in mind. See you soon!

Suits and a Mustache for No Shave November

Hey guys,

It's that time of year when boys show their support for testicular cancer (find out more here) and don't shave for a month. As I'm not a boy and I don't grow facial hair, I decided to paint my nails in the theme of No Shave November or Movember as it has been aptly named.

I fee handed the whole thing. I created pin stripes on my thumb and baby finger using stripers and I used a fine detail brush to do the suits. For the mustache I used a dotting tool and a thin brush.

Colours used are:

Sally Hansen Salon Manicure - Dorien Grey (base colour)

AVON Matte Nailwear - Grey Cement

Revlon - Black Lingerie

Rio Nail Art - Silver

I hope you liked these! I'm sorry for the lack of pictures on this post!

Autumn Owl

Hey guys,

I did these nails because I just bought a new Essie Polish (the berry colour I'm wearing) and really wanted to use it straight away. I thought it was a really good autumn colour and so decided to do an accent nail with an owl as I haven't had chance to any 'real' nail art all summer. Plus owls are super cute and I am yet to draw one on my nails.

The colours I used from l-r:

Rio Professional Nail Art Pens - black and white

Essie - Big Spender (totally IN LOVE with this colour)

Barry M Nail Paint - Mushroom

Ciaté Paint Pot - Pocket Money

Revlon - Gold Coin

AVON Nailwear Pro - Coral Beat

And that's a shot of my left hand. See you guys soon :)
