BUTTER LONDON BLAGGER & MILANI GOLD GEMS GRADIENT

Oh, how I loved this mani, bold glittery and just gorgeous : ) 
This is one coat of Butter London Blagger, a true blue creme which only needs  coat to reach opacity (I used two ! ) The formula was a bit thick but manageable ! 
Then on the tips I used Milani jewel fx gold and instead of sponging I just used the brush to push the glitter around ! : )
I just managed to get a little bit of sun : )











Gorgeous, right?

BARRY M COPPER & ULTA ORCHID

Howdy guys, how are you all today? 
Right lets get down to business, so it's back to nubs my long nails were irritating me and tbh I think I prefer nubbins now ! loll
Anyways here is today's mani, like I said before I have fallen in love with the new(ish) accent nail trend so I did another one using Ulta3 Orchid  which is such a gorgeous purple, it has shot up into my top 3 favourite purples, I used one coat for these picture I probably could have done with another coat as I didn't apply the first coat too neatly but if I'd been more careful I wouldn't have needed it  ! 
Then I used Barry M Copper on the accent nails, this is also another gorgeous polish, I'm not really sure how to describe it ! 









Pretty right? : )

HOLO TAUPE & RED GRADIENT

Hi guys ! how are you all? I'm tired, I've been painting my nails lots and that's about it ! 
So for this mani I did a simple gradient using OPI - You don't know Jacques and Max Factor nailfinity in redly nightshade which I wore for 2 days, then when we got a hint of sun I slapped on Hits Hefesto and ran into the sunshine waving my camera like a crazy woman ; p hehe 

Warning - Lots of pictures ahead ... enjoy : )


















Gradient before Hefesto 

Well, what do you guys think? Do you like it ?

ZOYA TRU & CHLOE

What can  I say ? This purple is amazeballs ! I just with the shimmer was more noticeable on the nail, I'm not sure if I got a dud bottle because all I swatches I saw had loads of shimmer ! 
Anyways it's still gorgeous and the flakey is nice too, different ! : )









Sorry I don't really talk a lot in these recent posts, I'm feeling a tad down but I'm sure it'll pass soon, take care ladies and I'll talk to you all soon : )

FISH EGG GRADIENT

Hey everyone, I'm not feeling much like talking today my grandad went home this morning and I was sad to see him go : ( 
Anyway here's something I did a while ago for you, I didn't wear this for long at all so I couldn't tell you about the wear !  
The base is China Glaze Kinetic Candy and then some random black microbeads ! 




I'm not really sure if I like it either, what do you guys think?

MULTICRHOME GOLD FRAMED NAILS

Finally I'm starting to feel better now, I don't really have much to say so I'll just get straight into todays nails ! 

So you saw that I got Ludurana Fascinante in my Brazil mail, well I decided to layer it because I though it'd be really sheer and need loads of coats (turns out it didn't!). 
I layered one coat over essie well red and then I used Barry M gold foil and a striping brush to outline it all, I know I did it the hard way but when I was paining this on I didn't think about framing them, so yeah ! Anyway something about this I didn't love but everyone who saw these nails loved them ! I'm not a big fan of the framed nails, it might grow on me but I'm not so sure ! 

Warning:  I took these pictures on the 2nd day of wear and thanks to Seche Vite I had horrible tip shrinking which looks way worse in the pictures than irl ! 



















Sooo, what do you guys think?

These pictures really bring out the green shimmer but there was also strong blue shimmer which the camera didn't pick up here !
