HALLOWEEN PUMPKIN NAILS!

Hi guys, hope your having a lovely day! Today I have my final Halloween nails design using the Halloween nail vinyls from She Sells Seashells. 

I did 2 coats of Barry M Chai as a base and then painted on these black stripes which are supposed to have a hypnotic kind of effect, if you get where I'm coming from. If you aren't confident with free handing the stripes you can use these straight nail vinyls. 

In the centre of the nail I added one of these cute little pumpkin vinyl stickers!

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.

THE FLASH NAILS FOR HALLOWEEN?

Hey guys, Happy October, can you believe it's come so fast? Anyway Halloween is at the end of the month and so I will be posting Halloween manicures throughout the month which are really easy to recreate because they're all done using the amazing Halloween nail vinyls from She Sells Seashells. 

So to kick off the month I'm posting my first Halloween nail design which is really not at all scary in any way, shape or form! So why is this a Halloween design? Well, if you've seen The Big Bang Theory, which most of you probably have, then you may remember Penny's Halloween party for which Sheldon, Raj, Howard and Leonard all dressed up as The Flash, lol! So that is why I class this as a Halloween design!  

To do these I painted my nails with OPI Big Apple Red and then used white acrylic paint to paint on the circle in the middle of the accent nail and two stripes at the tips of the nails. I then applied one of these gold lightning bolt vinyls from She Sells Seashells before top coating to complete the look.

ILNP ULTRACHROME STRIPES

Hey guys, how's your weekend going? I have tomorrow off so I'm happy :) hehe and I have just ordered the new ILNP Ultrachromes which of course means I'm happy!

Anywho so todays nails were actually going to be the base for a butterfly wing design but I tried it out on my little finger and it didn't work unfortunately so I wiped off the acrylic paint and left it like this. 

I used ILNP Birefringence, Cygnus Loop and Mutagen to do the stripes. Very simple design, very easy to do and looks just lovely :)

I definitely recommend you try this out, it looks just lovely and it's so easy to do :)

RAINBOW TRIBAL NAIL ART

Hey everybody, how are you enjoying your weekend ? 

So do you remember the tribal nails I did here? Well I decided to try the design out again but this time in a rainbow pattern. I started off with two coats of Illamasqua Monogamous and then used various nail polishes for the pattern (if you want to know the names of any of the colours please ask me in the comments and I'll let you know ) and a small nail art brush, the lines are pretty poor here actually but my brush was being a bit funky that day which kind of spoiled it!

Unfortunately when I applied topcoat it smudged the design :( which kind of ruined it a bit !

ILLAMASQUA SEANCE

Hey guys, hope your enjoying your weekend! 

My eyes are hurting at the moment, I'm guessing I should get off the computer but I didn't want to leave you guys without a post!

Anywho when the Illamasqua Paranormal polishes came out I convinced myself I didn't need them but then I found this on ebay and quite liked it! Today I'm showing you Seance, which is supposed to be a purple but it was more pink than I was expecting!

 I added some random black stripes to jazz it up a bit but it didn't turn out quite so well. Also it's not as pink in real life as the pictures.

 I love the shimmer in these polishes

BLUE WITH RAINBOW GLEQUIN STRIPES!

Hi guys, hope your enjoying your weekend! Here's a quick mani I rustled up a little while ago ! Still on a glequin kick ! I haven't done a rainbow look with them yet so I decided to give it a try ! 

For this mani I started off with 2 coats of Catrice Blue Cara Caio, then using a white striper polish I painted on the white stripes on each of the nails. Once that was dry I added some topcoat and stuck on the glequins and finished it with all with a coat of topcoat

I'm not crazy about it ! What do you guys think ? 

Anyway be sure to tune in for my next post because I have something really awesome to share with you !

MODELS OWN MIRRORBALLS - STRIPED

How's your weekend been guys, mine has been pretty boring (but sometimes boring is good right) 

So today I have another mani which features all 5 Models Own Mirrorball polishes. 

This is 2 coats of Essence Got a Secret and then I just painted alternate stripes using the different Mirrorballs, I can't remember which polishes I used where but it's a really random pattern so you can just do whatever you want really. 

It was really quite easy to do but the brush on my bottle of Hot Stuff was horrible, wonky and bristles in every direction which did make it a bit difficult. 

So guys enjoy the rest of your Sunday and I'll talk to you again soon : )
