CAVIAR AND BLINIS NAILS

I'm so happy it's Friday, I don't really have any plans, I'm just looking forward to spending the weekend playing with some of my new polishes. What are your plans?

Anywho I don't really like the whole caviar nail things but the other day (when I say the other day I actually mean 2 weeks ago, hehe ) I had this awesome idea which I haven't seen anywhere else ! Using the little caviar beads as caviar on my nails! So caviar goes with blinis. 

So I started off with 2 coats of Essie Well Red (I think), then using OPI San Tan Tonio I drew on irregular circles on to the nail using the polish brush, then using a little bit of cling film/saran wrap I dabbed on some brown polish (I can't remember which one) just onto the circles I'd drawn previously. I then applied a bit of topcoat in the center of the circle and dipped my finger into a pot of black caviar beads and voila ! 

I don't think I like caviar, I think I've tried it once but can't really remember, but I'm so happy with how these turned out, hehe!

What do you guys think?

MONEY SMART NAIL ART

Hi guys, so this is my entry for the Money Smart Nail Art competition! I am cutting it fine (again)! Anyways I  was excited to do this post because it's one I've been wanting to do for a while! So I've just included a few different techniques you can try out at home, all the tools included in this post you'll probably already have in your home, and if you don't they're really cheap and easily available ! 

For those who may be familiar with these techniques, see if you can guess which household item I used to create each look then let me know if you got them all right in the comments !

This post is really picture heavy as I've included a tutorial for each look (which will all be added on the tutorial page) so I'll insert a jump after these first set of photos!

I won't be doing much talking here, I'll leave that to the tonne of photos I've included

The looks you can create:

ANTIQUE GOLD SARAN WRAP MANI

So I wasn't really a big fan of the saran/cling film wrap but I saw it done with gold somewhere and it looked so delicate and gorgeous I had to try it and I couldn't decide if I should do it over purple or gold so I did an accent mani, the purple is OPI a grape fit and the green is from the back to the boho collection 

Then I used Barry M Gold foil, it looked better irl than in the photos, it looked so delicate and antiquey and pretty ; )

Are you a fan of the saran/cling film wrap mani? What's your favourite colour combinations ?
