NOTD #9 : Snowflake Nails

I know it's a little late but I wanted to quickly get this up before christmas day as it is, of course, the festive-y manicure I shall be sporting tomorrow. I decided on this design after watching a tutorial from the lovely MissJenFabulous on youtube so if you fancy re-creating this then simply click the link and have a whirl. 

Also, excuse the ratchet looking cuticles, my hands have been dry to no end and absolutely nothing has been working! 

Anyway, I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas tomorrow! 

NOTD #8 : Christmas Nails

I love love love doing christmasy nails, there's an array of iconic symbols that represent christmas, all of which can easily be transferred to a nail art form. I mostly get inspiration from various youtube clips and instagram pictures. 

This particular design simply needed dotting tools, masking tape and of course, nail polish. Dotting tools can be found on Amazon or Ebay for amazingly cheap prices. Alternatively, you can make do with a blunt pencil and tooth picks, both of which achieve the same result. 

Finally I used masking tape for the christmas tree to give a cleaner cut to the edges. 

I know I hardly posted all last week but I've been extremely busy trying to get all my work done and gather up the presents for family. I'm sure I will be back to updating every other day soon but for now, I hope you've all had a lovely christmas season so far! 

NOTD #5 : Halloween

Nail art will always hold a precious place in the heart for introducing me to this world of beauty. Before starting A levels I had all the time in the world and the majority of that time was spent getting creative with my nails. However depressing it may be to start getting older, it just has to be done. So 1 and a half years in and I have only been squeezing in the time to do seasonal designs ... halloween being the one I get a tad too excited about.

NOTD #3

I love love love nail art but I haven't really had time to do anything jazzy to my nails recently. This design is quite tame compared to my usual designs but I thought it went perfectly with the neutral base shade (which is still by far one of my absolute favourites!) 

This design just involves:- BARRY M Gelly Hi-shine in 'Lychee' and a Nail art pen in white

                                                                                                                      

 (from ebay) 

If you are looking for nail art pens then I highly suggest purchasing them from Ebay, you can get a bulk load of colours for a bargain-ous price!
