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 :/

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*

Hey guys i'm so sorry I didn't do a blog post yesterday, my laptop charger broke yesterday so I ordered a new charger and it came this morning!! So I still took these pictures yesterday but just imagine its for today :) AND ONLY 5 DAYS UNTIL MY BDAY IM SOOO FRICKIN EXCITED!! :D

 The nail polish that I used was Sally Hansen Salon Nail Lacquer in Pick a Red. I used 2 coats :)

This is a picture in natural lighting but with flash, do you like it better? comment below! you don't need a blogger account! *Fun fact* right now my hair is in rollers because im trying out Andreas Choice's hooded dryer tutorial which is on her youtube channel and because you have to wait abotu 45 minutes for it to dry I am watching an episode of skins :) I AM FINALLY NEARLY FINISHED ALL 6 SERIES WOOOO

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

Andrea Fulerton 'Oops! Varnish Clean Up' Review

Hey guys so I bought this varnish clean up polish because It sounded really cool and I see all of the more popular bloggers using brushes for clean up and I wanted to try it. So I did :)

Sorry this picture is blurred but basically I really like this product, it was £4.99 at super drug which is quite expensive, probably buying pure acetone and a nail art brush would be cheaper in the long run but oh well. 

NOTD: Nude Sparkles

Hey guys so I'm actually doing this post at 9:31am in the morning!! Today I woke up super early, 5:30am to be precise! So I'm trying to be really productive today :) I made a really long to-do list today to complete and I recommend if you want to be really productive make a to-do list with all the little things you have been procrastinating (for example cleaning your makeup brushes!) and list them in order to complete and it just plans out your day and makes it so much easier!

For a base colour I used Barry M Nude which I have 2 blog posts on here and for the glitter I used OPI teenage dream which I have another post on here. 

I did 2 coats of the Barry M nude polish and a really light coat of teenage dream :) I got inspired by one of missglamorazzi's pictures on instagram. You can purchase Barry M Nude here and OPI teenage dream here

NOTD: Lavender Cupcake by NYC

Hey guys I'm bloggging quite late tonight, I've felt sick all day and I just haven't been in the mood for blogging :( but I have been on a roll recently with 1 blog post a day and I didn't want to stop it. And yh I took the pics literally just now and its late so that explains the bad lighting ;( normally I use natural lighting WHICH ROCKS.

 It is such a pretty lavender colour <3 its my favourite colour so as soon as I saw it I had to buy it

 Sorry for the grainy-ness :( that's why I prefer taking pics in natural light

As you can see its a NYC Expert Last Nail Polish and it claims in lasts up to 7 days, I've worn it for 3 days (which is good for me, I normally paint my nails everyday) and I have noticed no chipping apart from the free edge which isn't very noticeable. It is a creme finish - and i used 2 coats. Oh and pick it up NOW in Superdrug, all NYC products are under £2.50 which is AMAZING! 

Thanks for reading xoxo

Polka Dot Nails | Orange | Nail Art

Hey guys this is the second post in the 'polka dot nails' series! I was going to do a NOTD of this orange polish but I thought it would be a bit boring so I decided to jazz up my nails with some polka dots!

 The orange nail polish is Jesses Girl JulieG Collection 'Beauty Guru' which you can purchase here. Check out JulieG on youtube here, she has really good makeup, nail and fashion videos! 

Yes, my polish smudged! Im awful with waiting for my nails to dry, so I always have dents and smudges on my nails. I did a stripe of medium sized black polka dots. You can purchase the dotting tools here for £3.99!

Polka Dot Nails | Pink | Nail Art

Hey guys this is going to be my first post on the 'polka dot nails' series :) I'm excited! Polka dots are such an easy way of transforming a nail look. *Fun fact* my nails are wet as I am typing this lol. I will have a NOTD of the polish I am wearing right now up soon. 

This is the complete nail look. For the pink I used Rimmel I <3 lasting finish in #270 Hot Shot. And for the black I used Barry M Nail Paint in #47 Black. To make the polka dot effect I used dotting tools which you can get here.

As you can see there are bubbles in the nail polish, thats what happens when you shake a polish :/ 

The Rimmel and Barry M Polishes are £2.99 I think and the dotting tools are £3.99. The design is super quick, it took me about 2 minutes!!

NOTD: Pink Grapefruit

Hey guys! Sorry I haven't been posting everyday, it has been SUPER hot in England so I decided to take advantage of that and go out with friends, go shopping and tan etc. But today I am going to have a chill day of blogging :) I wore this polish for about 3 days which is really good for me because I normally change my nail colour everyday.

It is literally SUCH a pretty colour just looking at it makes me want to paint my nails with it again :P It is the perfect summer pink, its not too HOT pink, but still pink. Its like a pinky-red.

Yes, there is a dent at the tip of my nail, I am AWFUL I always dent my nails while I attempt to wait for them to dry.And YAY finally my cuticles are hydrated on a swatch! They normally look so gross :P If you want to know what cuticle oil I use click here.
