ROSE NAILS

Hi everybody, how are you? I've spent the past 3 days working on an essay which is drawing the life out of me! I also have my besties wedding this weekend and my outfit still isn't ready! 

Today I have some rose nails to share with you. I used a tutorial to paint on the rose which I saw on instagram (and I can't remember whose tutorial it was) I wasn't sure what to do as a backgroud, eventually I decided to try out a circular gradient using Zoya Ling* and Models Own Baby Blues, this was the first time I tried a circular gradient and I think it turned out ok! 

I then painted on the rose on the middle finger and to tie the rest of the nails in I added a few rose petals on the other nails and I fell in love.

DAISY NAIL ART WITH ZOYA TILDA

Hey guys, how are you all doing? I hope your weeks started out on a positive note :) 

When Tilda* dropped through my post box, it just looked like the perfect grass green colour! 

I wanted to do some flowery nail art with it but wanted to keep it simple, so I painted on this daisy :)

Love it! Makes me think of summer!

VERTICAL GRADIENT WITH ZOYA LING & TILDA

Hey guys, so I'm still ill but today I finally managed to sit and do my nails before heading to work. 

I am in love with the nails I'm showing you today, remember the vertical gradient I did, about a year ago now, here. Well I loved it but never actually got round to doing another vertical gradient, haha! So when I saw these two gorgeous Zoya polishes side by side I just knew what I had to do.

I used Zoya Tilda* and Ling* for the gradient, and I really think my gradients have improved, just goes to show practice makes perfect! I topped the whole thing off with one coat of Wet n Wild Fergie polish in Tonight's Gonna Be A Good Good Night. 

These colours are made for each other and they work so so beautifully together, if you own these you must try this out!

ZOYA LING & TILDA - TICKLED COLLECTION SUMMER 2014

Hey guys, sorry there hasn't been a post in a while but it's been a bit busy. If you follow my instagram or twitter you will probably know I went to London on Saturday to meet up with some lovely nail ladies; I met Sarah, Esther, Saira, Annette, Hannah, Susan and Sabine. We had a really lovely day and it was so nice to meet all the ladies :)

Ok, so onto todays nails. I have 2 new colours from Zoya's Tickled collection for Summer 2014. I was sent Tilda* and Ling* which are both really gorgeous cremes. I used 2 coats for each and no top coat, they dried fast and applied beautifully. 

First up is Ling, a gorgeous bright blue. 

The other one is Tilda, a gorgeous grass coloured green. There is some bubbling on my ring finger but that's my fault not the polish. 

Both are really gorgeous colours and have the perfect signature Zoya formula. I've already done a few nail art designs using these colours which I will share with you soon. Will you be picking up these shades? 

You can buy them here from the Official Uk Stockists and also keep up to date by following their Twitter and Facebook.

MERMAID NAILS

Hey guys, how are you all? So today I have a mani I did a while ago and this is probably one of my most favourite nails of ALL TIME!

I sat and stared at my new set of holographic glequins and these colours just stood out at me and I knew I had to use them all together. I used the green, light blue and dark blue glequins and did alternating stripes of them on all the fingers except the accent nail where I applied two coats of Zoya Bevin and sponged on several different green polishes and then I used Barry M Gold Foil to paint on mermaid scales. 

I love this so so much, I know I've done mermaid nails before but these are honestly the most mermaid-ey and imo they look awesome!

CLAIRE'S BLACK MIX GLITTER

Hi everyone, how are you all? Are you excited for christmas? So today I have another new polish I picked up from Claire's which would also make a lovely gift !

This is just called School Day I think but my bottle says Black Mix Glitter and it is a lovely black and white glitter. 

I've shown this over Zoya Bevin. The formula on this one is perfect, better than the Fluffy polish from Claire's which I showed you here. 

So you can buy this online from the Claire's website for £3 with 25% off or you can pick it up in your nearest store. This would make a lovely christmas present for anyone really (including yourself teehee) 

A black and white glitter is a must have in any polishaholics stash and this is a really good, inexpensive and easy to find choice for UK ladies :)

There are several black and white glitter polishes available in the uk now so I will be doing a comparison post very soon :)
