May Challenge!

Once again I am attempting the monthly challenge. Last time I got to the middle column but never finished so maybe this one I'll reach the final column! Here is the May challenge

For the first day I recreated my rememberance day nails which can be found under the tag to the right.

 

These nails as you can see are my entry for May the Fourth Be With You! Star Wars day! and below are my neon entry. I NEVER do neon so this was an entirely new thing for me!

 

My next post will be about my newest advenure, having Belle from Beauty and the Beast tattooed on my arm so stay tuned for that!

I've been MIA again but here's an update!

Follow my blog with Bloglovin Yet again I've been MIA but I do have the excuse of not having internet at home to use! I haven't had alot of time for my nails recently because my final year at university is getting abit hectic and I have had my first big tattoo done BUT I have managed to fit in my first paid job and a couple of other manis! Here's just a quick roundup of the past month. If you have any questions don't hesitate to get in touch :-) Firstly my first paid job! A friend was off to a wedding and wanted a modern french manicure. She'd seen the amazing ombre nails so that's what we did!

I've only had time to do this other mani, fairly simple but still pretty!   

Sorry for the short post! I promise, promise, promise I will write up a full one soon aswell as a post about my new Disney tattoo!

Blue Nails For Autism Awareness Month!

Hello everyone, so as people may have guessed by now, the March challenge kinda failed for me. I will still try to finish it and turn it into the April challenge but we shall see.

For now we have another project! April 1st is the first day of Autism Awareness month and some of us lovelies in the nail community are doing a month of blue manis to help raise awareness!
My mind just doesn't do blue so rather than do every single mani blue I am instead going to have blue as my main colour :-)

http://www.autismspeaks.org/what-autism/world-autism-awareness-day

Here is my first one!

 

This started with a base of Sally Hansen - Without A Stitch, then one coat of a GOSH blue which I have had forever from a bargain bin in Superdrug so I don't know the name of! When it was all dry, I took a cotton pad with a tiny dap of remover and lightly brushed the surface until you could see the base colour.

 

I have no idea what I was going for with it but I kinda like it!

 

Day 13 - Luck

For Day 13 of the March challenge my inspiration word was 'Luck'. I, at first had no idea what to do so went about a few ideas. Finally I settled on using my lucky ring as the basis!

I've worn this ring every single day since I was given it by my Mum about 9years ago.

Colours used were:

• OPI - Jade is the New Black
• OPI - Nail Envy as a base coat
• BarryM - Gold Foil
• Sally Hansen - Strengthening top coat

I hope you like! Stay tuned for another post really, really soon.

The I Have a Life Challenge!

Whoaa it's been 1 whole month since I last posted! I really need to start getting ontop of that! even though it's been quiet over here I have still been a busy bee doing a challenge over on Instagram. It's called the I have a life challenge because, as you can tell from the title, it means you can still carry on with a normal life alongside this. Most challenges have a new post everyday but this one is every few days so yay. life. As it's the 12th now I'll just do a quick post as a catch up then hopefully will stay on top of posting for each entry :-) Sorry for the amount of photos if it takes a while to load.

First up here's the dates for the challenges!

 

First Entry - Chevrons I hate doing chevrons. So time consuming and I can never get them neat enough for my OCD brain!

 

Second was Stripes, again very much like doing chevrons. I actually quite like these though.

 

Third we have gradients! My absolute favourite at the minute! Lovelovelovelove. I'm going to do a whole post on this because I love this look so much so watch this space.

# Fourth was colour block. This isn't technically colour blocking as I see it in my mind but it's almost there! The photo also isn't amazing because my pretty SLR has broken :-(

 

Phew, there we have all my entries thus far. Keep a look out for the next one on the 13th give or take a few days cos ya know, I have a life. :-)

Also if you want me to do any full posts on any of these designs (aside from gradients because that's definitely happening anyway!) then let me know!
