Jamaican Flag | A Mixture of Things | Nail Art

Hey guys so this post is gonna be a mixture of things.. interesting things.
I still have the union jack nail art on my ring finger which I have a blog post on here. But I changed the blue shimmery colour which you saw in a preview NOTD to Essie's Footloose which I also have a blog post on here.

As you can see on my thumb nail I have the Jamaican flag which I quickly did, I'm quite happy with it :)

As you can tell theres a HUGE dent in the middle of it, not sure how that happened :/ 

Thanks for reading xoxo

Union Jack Nails | Nail Art

Hey guys so I'm really sorry I haven't posted in 2 days!! I really have no idea why I haven't. I was supposed to write this yesterday but I got distracted by the olympics :P I wanted to do a union jack design on my ring fingers but I ended up only doing it on my left hand because I cant do designs as well on my right hand. If you want to know how I did this design nailasaurus has a tutorial blog post here.
For the light blue I used Barry M Blue Moon which is a really light blue colour and its gorgeous! I used 3 coats of that. 
And I put a glitter on top of the blue, I used LA Colors Sassy Sparkle which I have another swatch of it here.

Okay so I used a lot of polishes for this, and as you can tell it looks like a jelly because of all the top coat I put on!! For the white I used No7 Snowflake. Then for the red I used Sally Hansen Pick a Red and LA Colors Art Deco Red Glitter. For the blue I used Jesses Girl JulieG Polish in Girls Night Out. To go over the white I used Nubar White Striper. And then to seal in the design I used Sally Hansen Hard as Wraps clear top coat.

Thanks for reading! xoxo

Saturday Spam - LA Colors

Hey guys so today is actually a really exciting blog post for me because I went to a beauty store today - I normally never do, and I found LA Colors polishes for only 99p!! Soooo cheap! I only bought 4 because I have a lot of nail polish and I need to stop buying them.
These are all the polishes together, if you want to see more in depth swatches, keep scrolling!
 So I used 1 coat of 'Sassy Sparkle' over my french tip manicure.
 I actually like it its a nice way to spice up a french mani :)
JUST LOOK AT THE GLITTAAAAAA 

 I used 2 coats of 'Goddess' over 1 coat of Sally Hansen Maximum Growth Nail Colour in 'Copper Glamour' which I have a blog post on here
It is a gold colour with small hexagon holographic glitter and then BIG hexagon glitter things which are AWESOME <3

 I used 1 coat of 'Jewel Tone' over 2 coats of NYC Nail Polish in Lavender Cupcake which I have a blog post on here
It is sooo pretty and would make for a pretty good jelly sandwich :)
 I used 3 coats of 'Treasure Island' over 2 coats of Barry M Blueberry Ice Cream 
It's a super pretty greeny blue look and I LOVE IT!! The glitter is very fine though, so you will need 3-4 coats. They dry quite quickly though :)

And sorry if it's quite boring but I will be doing NOTD posts a lot over the next month cause I go back to school in exactly a month and 2 days ://// But I paint my nails every other day so you will see soooo many NOTD's but also reviews :) and I will try and film a tutorial not tomorrow but the day after cause my SD card is working again *hooray*

Thanks for reading xoxo

NOTD: OPI Rumples Wiggin | Matte

Hey guys so I am sooo happy that I have done a blog post every day for like 2 weeks! But anyways I used to LOVE this polish but it kind of faded into a light grey colour, not really sure why. But I did this combination on my friend and I had to do it on my own nails :D

I think it looks better on shorter nails, so I cut my nails. It is OPI Rumples Wiggin I think it's from the Shrek collection from forever ago. I used 2 coats and then one coat of essie's matte about you top coat.  It was £10.50 from Selfridges but you can also buy it here. Check back tomorrow for another blog post! :) love you

Thanks for reading! xoxo
