Happy Sunday! :)

For today's manicure I thought I would do some stamping since it's been a while. The base colour used is by Nails Inc - Chester street. It's a silky smooth soft nude mushroom shade perfect for this season. I then used cheeky plate CH6 to stamp with, using the colors shiraz by covergirl and kiko shade 334 to create a slight gradient effect. Finally I added some fine glitter by LA colors - sassy sparkle to finish of the look. Hope you like it :)

Hey peeps! Today I'm going to share with you an elegant, simple look perfect for a wedding, special occasion or simply for fun! I've used a nude pink shade by BeautyUk called 'hope' (from the paint for life collection) which sadly may no longer be available :(
I don't usually like pink which some of you probably already know, but I love the simplicity and softness of this shade. Two coats gives it a perfect coverage, however you can still go for one coat to get a more subtle nude finish.

Here's the finished look completed with top coat.

First I applied two coats of 'hope' (indoors light shot).

I added a line of white and pink pearl studs to the corner of my accent nail, using my top coat to glue them on.

Hello beauties! Aren't we just loving the sunshine in London this week?! Let's hope it stays for the Bank holiday weekend too :) So, today's manicure is going to be an Easter special so bring out all those lovely pastels!

Ever since I saw the spun sugar trend last year I've been meaning to try it out. It's a super fun textured look and the great thing about it, is that it doesn't have to be perfect (but I warn you, it's a lil messy and time consuming so be patient!) You can decide how thick/thin you want the lines to be, however mine turned out a little thicker than anticipated. A little more practice and you can definitely control the effect you desire. There are countless colour combinations you can try out, but for my Easter edition I've used peach, pink, blue and purple.

Here's the finished look - as I said earlier it came out slightly thicker than I thought but a good result for a first time attempt.

First I applied two even coats of Barry M- Matt White as my base colour.

For the accent nail, I've combined all four colours in one.

Colours used are: LA colours - Fun in the sun, NYC - Raindrop, Beauty UK - Love and Barry M - Peach Melba.

Finally I added Sally Hansen - Diamond flash top coat. (Adding a top coat smoothens out the lines slightly, losing its texture a little so it's completely a judgement call whether you apply it or not).

Hey bloggers! Hope you had a lovely weekend :)
For todays mani I decided to do some simple freehand nail art. I've used Orange it's Obvious by Essie and drawn a simple feather design using black, white and a shimmer silver.

Today's manicure is one of my favourite deep purple shades called Purple Rain by Rimmel Pro. I've used White by Barry M and cheeky plate CH2 to stamp with. The design reminds me of a growing plant and it made me think of the lovely flowers blossoming around us this spring. 

Happy Saturday bloggers! It's a lovely sunny day here in London, hope everyone's enjoying the weather :)
Todays manicure is by LA Girl called Ballet. It's a soft baby pink and has a very slight shimmer in it. I didn't feel like stamping on top of this so I've left it plain. I think it's a perfect pastel wear for spring and looks super pretty in the sunlight because it shows off the shimmer. I used a coat of 'hope' by Beauty uk first as a base colour since the pink is very thin, so you would need a few good coats before reaching it's true colour, if used on its own.
