Swirly Thing Alert

Yeah, good name, right? (There is a prize for anyone who gets the reference*)

Anywho, I decided to do something simple, but that looked intrcate.

 Also a test of the Bourjois So Lacque nail varnishes.

I liked the Bourjois polish. I find pale colours usually streak without many thousands of coats, but this only took 2. It was also very shiny pre-topcoat.

Products used: Pale pink - Bourjois (Rose Lounge)

                       Black - Barry M

*The prize is an imaginary cupcake.

Summer Flower Nail Design

Just a quick and fairly simple design today. When summer decided it was over rather quicker than I'd hoped, I decided a bright coral was called for.

As you can see, flowers are not my speciality, but I like the colour combo.

Products used: Coral - 17

                       Gold - Andrea Fullerton Stripe & Sparkle (India)

                       White - Barry M (Matt White)

                       Black - Rio Professional Nail Art

Experiments with Rhinestones and the like

I found all manners of glittery things and decided to shove them on my nails. Here are a few of the results.The Orange Flower look is inspired by a design on my.coolnailsart but I can't remember who.

 Very simple blue with sparkles.

 Sorry for the bad lighting of this photo. This is my most recent nail design (I still have it). In real life, it's covered in a glittery top coat.

Nail Foil Experiment

I had an experiment with nail foils. I like the result, but they can be difficult to use. The set I have comes with a 2 in 1 base and top coat, and you definately need it. Especially as a top coat, otherwise it starts to peel. 

Anywho, these are my attempts with them. First: disco nails!

 Blue and Gold. I really like this one, it looks sort of regal.
