Christmas Lights!

Hi everyone,

I hope you had an AMAZING Christmas and Santa bought you everything you wanted!

For Christmas Day I decided to have Christmas Lights on my nails!

I used Models Own Nail Art Pen in Black ,  No7 Stand Back, No7 Foxglove, Nails Inc Atomic,  Avon Real Red and Max Factor Nailfinity Disco Pink. For the French Manicure I used  Rimmel Nail Tip Whitener.

The design was quite simple and the lights were based on the fairy lights in my room!

I hope you like them and let me know what you think!

Snow Nails!

Hi everyone,

Today I decided to do snow nails because we have had no snow here in England!

I used 17 Chateau and NYC Little Italy.

This nail art has definitely got me into the Christmas spirit!

Present Nails!

Hi everyone,

So today I decided to continue with my Christmas nail art and do present nails!

I used Models Own Peacock Green and Models Own Nail Art Pen in White.

I have to say this colour is one of my favourite Models Own polishes ever. In different light it is a different shade of turquoise and in photos it turns into a lovely blue colour. The polish itself is one of the quickest drying polishes I have used and also has a big brush for easy application.

I used the striper end of the nail art pen for the bows and it worked really well for the design, I recommend it to anyone!

Overall I am really happy with how it has turned out!

Let me know what you think!

Candy Cane Nails

Hi! 

Okay so today I wanted to do something simple, and decided to do candy cane nails!

I used NYC Little Italy and Avon Real Red.

For this design I used striping tape for the first time, which meant the lines were a lot neater than what I could have done by hand! The tape was finicky to use at first, but after a couple of nails I got used to it and it worked really well!

Hope you like them, and let me know what you think!

It's December!

Hi!

 I cannot believe it's December already, the year has gone so fast!

 I've decided for the build up to Christmas that I am going to do a selection of Christmas nail art starting from tomorrow.

Come back tomorrow for the first post!

:)

Polka Dots

Hi, today I decided to do some simple nail art and just put polka dots all over my nails.

I used Max Factor Cool Jade, Barry M Blueberry "ice cream" , Nails inc Elizabeth Street, Max Factor Diva Violet , Barry M Coral and NYC Little Italy.

I thought the colours worked well together, and it was simple to do, so i'll definitely do this again!

:)

Leopard Print

Hi, today I decided to do a leopard print.

I loved the Fantasy Fire polish so much, that I decided to experiment and create a leopard print on top of it!

I used Max Factor Fantasy Fire, W7 Black , Rimmel Your Majesty and 17 Sphinx.

Fantasy Fire

Hi, today I decided to keep it simple and just paint my nails and not do any nail art. 

I bought this colour a while back, as the hype over it was HUGE!

 I used Max Factor Fantasy Fire.

I've wanted to paint this colour on my nails for a while now, but I've only just got round to it!

I decided to apply 2 base coats of Nails inc Elizabeth Street and then 2 coats of Max Factor Fantasy Fire on top.

This is a photo of the polish without flash. 

Without flash the polish seems more purple and lighter, but with flash ( see above) the purple colour is much brighter!

I love the different colours within the polish especially the different purples and golds. 

It looks great in all light, and I have to say it is one of my favourite polishes!

:)

Glitter Nails

In June it was my Year 11 Prom and these are the nails I decided to do for them!

I used Topshop Nails in Ice Crush for the glitter.

I thought the gradient worked well for my first attempt and the glitter was actually silver, not multi-coloured!

:)

French Manicure with a twist!

This has to be my favourite nail art design I have ever done.

I came up with the design myself after getting bored with constantly having a plain french manicure on my nails.

I used Rimmel Nail Tip Whitener, Models Own Nail Art Pen in Black, Models Own Nail Art Pen in White and LA Colors Art Deco Teal Glitter.

:)

Christmas Nails 2011

Hi, these are the nails I did last year for Christmas!

I used Models Own Purple Pearl and Rimmel Your Majesty.

:)

POW!

Hi! This was my first nail art attempt inspired by WAH Nails' POW.

I used Max Factor Diva Violet, Models Own Nail Art Pen in Black, Rimmel Nail Tip Whitener and a pin with a large head (apparently it's called a straight pin).

When I first saw the design on the WAH Nails website I immediately wanted it on my nails so I improvised with what I had (hence the rimmel tip whitener as my white) and got designing!

Hello Everyone!...

Hello!

I decided to join the world of blogging after being inspired by other nail bloggers like "The Nailasaurus" (thenailasaurus.com), "Chalkboard Nails" (chalkboardnails.com) and "One Nail To Rule Them All" (onenailtorulethemall.blogspot.co.uk).

I was first inspired about a year ago after stumbling across WAH Nails, and being amazed at all of their designs. After this I started reading nail blogs and then soon became obsessed with doing designs on my nails!

The first few posts will probably be me catching up on nail art I have done through the past year :)

I Hope you enjoy!
