Goodbye 2013, Hello 2014!

Hi everyone,
I hope you all had a good Christmas and got lots of nail polish!
Anyway, it's New Years Eve! I cannot believe how fast this year has gone!

The year has been a big year for my blog, I never thought that my blog would come this far or that my nail art would improve as much as this!

Follower - wise, my blog has:

194 Tumblr Followers

89 Members

65 Bloglovin' followers

44 followers on Instagram

28 followers on Google +

9 Facebook likes 

The best thing about all of this is that my nail art has improved. I think the best way to show this is from this design:

Christmas Skittle

Hi everyone,

It's 2 day's 'till Christmas! I'm so excited!

Anyway, today I'm going to show you the nails I will be wearing for Christmas day. I have so many different designs in mind, but in the end I decided to do a skittle mani - that way I can combine lots of different ideas! This is my first skittle mani, and I have to say I really like the idea of it!

Here's my design:

On my thumb I did a Christmas tree.

As you can probably tell, I used lots of different nail polishes to create this. 

Models Own Peacock Green

*This nail polish was purchased by me

Hi everyone,

For the last of the Christmas swatches I have decided to show you my favourite festive nail polish: Models Own Peacock Green.

This colour is perfect for Christmas trees or general nail art.

It is the perfect metallic green and shines differently in various lighting.

GFC

Hi everyone,

I'm not sure if you've noticed, but Google have decided to get rid of the GFC widget, so I'm guessing this means the end of GFC. I think this is because they want people to use Google + instead of GFC.

Don't worry, you can still follow me on:

Just follow these links or click on the icons on the right hand side of my blog.

I will do my best to follow all of you on other platforms.I have already imported all of the blogs I follow to Bloglovin' so I will still be able to read all of your posts.

Christmas Pudding Nails

Hi everyone,

Today I thought I'd show you some Christmas nails I created as it's only 9 until Christmas! I'm so excited!

I wasn't really sure about this design at first, because I wasn't sure if the brown nail polish  would look nice with my skin , however I'm pretty happy with the results.

Here's my design:

I used an unamed brown nail polish, NYC High Line Green and Barry M Matt White. The little red star studs are from a NPW Nail Art Wheel.

Snowman Nails Tutorial

Hi everyone,

Today I decided to do a tutorial for the Snowman Nails I created on Tuesday (you can see the post here).

Christmas Swatch: 17 Chateau

                                                                                                *This nail polish was purchase by me

Hi everyone,

As part of the Christmas swatches I've decided to show you one of the oldest nail polishes in my collection: 17 Chateau 

I really love this colour, and always wear it around Christmas time. As you can see this nail polish is great for Christmas because it's red!

I'd say this nail polish is a cherry red, which has subtle gold flecks.

Snowman Nails!

Hi everyone,

I've been wanting to change my banner for a while now but was never satisfied with the designs I came up with, but I finally managed to find a design I liked. What do you think? - Or do you prefer my old banner?

Anyway, today I thought I'd show you some more Christmas Nails. The nearer it gets to Christmas, the more excited I get!

I decided to create some snowman nails, here's what I came up with:

I used Fing'rs Heart 2 Art Little White Lie, No7 Striper in Black, No7 Striper in Silver, Nails Inc Atomic and Barry M Nail Art Pen in Black.

I also used an unknown polish, which had little tiny silver glitter particles, which I used to create a glitter background.

Princess Jasmine Nails

Hi everyone,

Yesterday was my best friends 18th Birthday Party, so being the grown - up girls we are (not really) we had a Disney Princess Party. We all had to dress up as different Disney Princesses and I chose Princess Jasmine. Obviously I had to match my nails to my outfit, here's my design:

I used Barry M Blueberry and Models Own Nail Art Pen in Gold.

The rhinstone is from a NPW Nail Art Wheel.

Sinful Colors Island Coral

*This nail polish was purchased by me

Hi everyone,

So a couple of weeks ago I was asked to do a swatch of Sinful Colors Island Coral. This polish is quite popular and has already been swatched so many time, but I couldn't resit swatching it - it's so nice! 

This nail polish has a great finish and is quite unique. I don't think I've come across a nail polish like this, I'd say it's a pinky coral.

Christmas Swatch: Revlon Gold Coin

*This nail polish was purchase by me

Hi everyone,

As it's December, I've decided to show you a nail polish which I think would be perfect to wear around Christmas! 

My first swatch is Revlon Gold Coin.

I think this nail polish is great for Christmas because it's gold! There are so many things which are gold at Christmas: bells, tinsel, baubles, stars etc.

I think this nail polish is quite unique. I have never seen a gold nail polish like this before and is a great metallic colour. It has a great finish and looks great with any skin tone.

Avon Opal Top Coat Swatches

*This product was purchased by me

Hi everyone,

It's December! Which means Christmas is on its way!

I am so excited for Christmas, so to get into the Christmas spirit I decided to show you some swatches of Avon's Opal top coat. I have had the polish for a while now, and as soon as I applied it over metallic nail polish I knew it would be perfect for Christmas.

This polish is an iridescent flake polish, which shines different colours in light. I think It's a very versatile topcoat, which would look great with any colour.

Here is my first swatch:

For my base colour I used Models Own Peacock Green.
