BEE NAILS

Hey guys, I am glad we have finally reached the end of the week! I have a huge amount of work to get through this weekend so I'm not sure if I'll get a chance to blog again. 

Today I have some bee inspired nails. I used Butter London Pimms for my base colour, once it was dry I applied Illamasqua Swarm on my pointy and pinky and then I used the straight nail vinyls from She Sells Seashells and w7 black to paint on the stripes.

ILLAMASQUA SWARM SWATCHES

Hey guys, I'm really sorry I haven't posted this week but it has been an exhausting week! Thankfully things look like they're settling down for the rest of the week!

Anyway so if you follow me on Instagram you probably saw I treated myself to some Illamasqua, as you may already know Illamasqua is my favourite nail polish brand, I love their colours, the formulas, the customer service and the way they always interact with bloggers on various social media platforms! The hard part is choosing which colour to get, I have 40 Illamasquas in my collection so it's not always easy choosing which colour to get! Anyway enough rambling, lets talk nails.

One of the polishes that I've had my eye on for a while is Illamasqua Swarm, so I treated myself to a bottle when I got my exam results and all I can say is I love it !

I have a lot of pictures to show you so please click on the link below to read more and see some macro pictures too :)

BUTTER LONDON SCALLYWAG

Hi guys, how are you all? I've had exams this week which is why I haven't blogged but I finished yesterday so today has been about nails, nail polish and blogging : ) 

So I have so much to show you but I have loads of posts from last year which I never got round to showing you and my brain will start to itch if I don't post stuff in order ; ) haha!

So this is two coats of Butter London Scallywag, a gorgeous vibrant turquoise glitter. 

This is really topcoat thirsty though, I applied about 3 coats of topcoat and it still had a gritty look/feel!

Ok, so then I applied gold and silver hex glequins as frames on my index and pinky finger

BUTTER LONDON - JACK THE LAD

Hey guys, I've spent most of the day cooking and now the pie is in the oven and I'm just watching Freaky Friday lol! I love Sunday evenings, I just like to sit curled up with a blanket and watch a film with a nice hot cup of tea/plate of food! 

So today I have Jack The Lad by Butter London to show you, this is a really gorgeous nail polish which I picked up from T K Maxx for £5.99.

It's so beautiful and you only need two coats for full coverage. It's such a complex and beautiful colour! If you don't already own this you need to go out and buy it now!

ORANGES FAIL !

Hi guys, hope your all good :)

I've been super busy this week so I haven't really had time to type up a blog post! So wow, I was rather overwhelmed with the response to my last post, I'm so glad you guys liked it :) 

Anyway so this was a big fail, I was sat staring at my nail polishes (as you do) and saw Butter London Silly Billy and it just made me think ORANGES!! so I thought I'd paint them on my nails and it turned out terrible!

I started off with two coats of Essence Got A Secret and then used a dotting tool and made dots with Silly Billy and used black acrylic paint and my nail art brush to draw on the rest of the details.

Yeah, so they don't look like oranges.

BUTTER LONDON CAKE HOLE & GLITZOLOGY CRUELLA

Hi guys, ok so I've changed my blog design! I've been meaning to update my blog design and layout for some time but I've put it off for so long mainly because I'm not the best with blog layout and html and that sort of stuff and secondly because I had no idea what to do with the design! 

Today though I had a light bulb moment and thought I'll just try it out, so I created the header and messed about with page widths and backgrounds and tab colours etc. and this is what I ended up with! I think I like it but I still have some fiddling to do! 

Anywho so today I have a simple layering notd to show you. I started off with two coats of Butter London Cake Hole and then applied one coat of Glitzology Cruella which I got in a blog sale. 

I love black and white glitter :) do you?
