TRIANGLE CHEVRON TIPS ?

Hey guys, well the weather here has definitely got warmer and I think I can say Spring is here! This means a wardrobe clearout/organising which I am not looking forward to! What's the weather like where you are? 

So today I have a little bit of nail art to share with you. To do these nails I started with 2 coats of OPI Wonderous Star and then I used black acrylic paint to paint on the rest of the details, can these be classed as chevrons? 

I love it :) Mainly because I love Wonderous Star haha!

BLUE TEXTURED TIPS

Hi everyone, how have you all been, have you had a good weekend?  So yesterday I went on a Mount Snowdon trek, unfortunately we didn't make it to the top becuase of poor weather conditions, namely ice/snow and really strong winds which completely knocked you over! It was still a fun day though and I am planning on returning in the summer to reach the top ;) 

Recently I bought OPI Kiss Me At Midnight, I was under the impression that this was as bright as Nails Inc Baker Street and unfortunately it's not but it's still nice. So you guys know that the first thing I do when I a textured polish is use it on the tips like I have done here and here. I decided to pair this with Kiko 336 which is a close dupe to Nails Inc Baker Street.  

I was a little bit impatient and applied a fast drying topcoat and applied the tape too early so you can see the tape has left an imprint in the base colour. 

Ok guys, have a lovely Monday and I'll see you in the next post : )

BARRY M GELLY PLUM & KINK TIPS

Hope your all having a good weekend, today I have some simple nail art which I did recently. 

I started off with 2 coats of Barry M Gelly in Plum (btw this is a pretty much dead on dupe for OPI Vant To Bite My Neck?) I left this on for a day and didn't apply topcoat, unfortunately when I woke up the next morning I was left with some sheet marks (which you can see in the pictures) 

I then used some tape and painted on Illamasqua Kink on to the tips.  

I really like this colour combination and the overall look, what do you think?

GLEQUIN TIPS

Hi guys, how are you all doing? 

I'm just enjoying a hot cup of tea whilst watching The Proposal (awesome movie!) The weather here has been crazy the past few days, we've had so much snow and it's been so cold! We had a snow day on Friday so I've spent the weekend with my family watching movies and wrapping up warm! How's your weekend been?

Anywho onto nail matters, as I've mentioned previously I am on a glequin kick and the most common comment I get about my glequin manis is how some of you don't have the patience or time to sit and glequify the whole nail. So I created this mani with you guys in mind, it's uber simple and quick to do, instead of applying glequins to the whole nail you can just apply them to the tips and it's still shiny and awesome looking. 

For these nails I started out with 2 coats of China Glaze Elephant Walk and then applied some topcoat to the tips and applied 2 rows of glequins at the tips and sealed it all in with a layer of topcoat!

Oh also as you can see I've started watermarking my photo's now I think it looks ok, but there is room for improvement, let me know what you think, it's not too distracting or anything like that for you guys?

Anyways I hope you guys give this a try, if you do leave me a link in the comments so I can check it out.

Ok then till next time :)

ASYMMETRICAL TIPS

Hi guys, hope your all doing well, I don't really have much time to talk today we are heading out for dinner soon but I'm posting this now because our internet isn't working properly and randomly stops working for as long as it wants !

 Anyway onto nail business, this was just a random, see how it turns out kind of mani, I started off with 2 coats of Essence  Got a secret (which is my favourite grey creme !) Then I used striping tape and painted on the green bits with Essence Lime up (which is another of my favourite creme's) and then I used Barry M turquoise to paint on the other blue tips, I was impatient with this mani which is why it's not looking so good but that's it really, simple and cute  : ) 

I'm not going to enlarge these pics guys because up close my cuticles look soo dry, it's just awful & distracting !
