Colour Club Almost Valentines Day Nails!

Well! Wednesday is Valentines Day, as I'm sure you all know. Since It's only Monday, (ew) I have some nails that aren't Valentines themed, but could be if you wanted. haha. I hope everyone's Monday isn't too crappy and you all have a great week. Today is me and my boyfriend's 11th month aniversary! That's crazy in highschool years! Haha. Well, 
Enjoy! xx



The colours that I used were: Colour Club Chelsea Girl which is a really nice blue. It's pretty much the colour  blue that I think about when I think of blue. Does that make sense? Haha. China Glaze Elephant Walk which is a grey that I probably wouldn't have picked out myself, I got it from a friend. It does however, look a lot nicer on nails than in the bottle. Revlon Whimsical is a milky glitter. It took about 4 coats to get it to the transparency as it is here. 


The flower was bought off of ebay, and are a really nice light blue lily that fades into white near the top.


I used white acrylic paint for the letters and mixed it with a bit of Elephant Walk for the shadow.

Colour Club Berry and Bright with Bows

Hi everyone! Hope you're all having a great morning/day so far! A couple things to say before I get to my nails. I sprained my hand somehow, so posts will be limited. I can't do nails at all right now, so I'll be posting older manis. Also, if you have any questions feel free to ask me, and I'll put them in my Tips for Your Tips Series! Well, here's today nail art!


I used Colour Club Berry and Bright, Sinful Colours Snow Me White, and Sinful Colours Black on Black!


The microbeads were bought off ebay!

Maybelline Gray's Anatomy with Cheeky Stamping

Hi everyone! I know this is late, again. But I had an English assignment that I had to get done.  Anyway, I'm not really in a talkative mood, I'm quite tired, so let's get straight to the mani! 


I used a new holographic polish I have, called Gray's Anatomy by Maybelline. It changes from purple to green, and I had an extremely hard time photographing it. I tried every room in my house, and none of them did this polish justice. 


I stamped on top of it with Sinful Colours Black on Black using the Cheeky plate CH44. I added the dots with a dotting tool that I brought off ebay.

First Tutorial!
Okay, so. Before you start, pick two colours. Make sure that they are close, but different shades. Ex: One darker, one lighter. Rub a bit of acetone on your nails to let the polish stick better.

Step 1: Paint whole nail darker colour. Let dry.
Step 2: Using a dotting tool, or several different sizes, make dots on the upper corner of the nail varying in size. I made the dots in black because i think the way that looked more than white.
Step 3: Again using a dotting tool, make smaller dots on a couple of the black/white dots you just made with your lighter colour.
Step 4: Make even smaller dots on one or two of the lighter dots, using black/white again.
Step 5: Top coat, and let your nails dry. Then moisturize, and use cuticle cream/oil.

Colours Used: Essie; Turquoise & Caicos
                          Barelements; Teal
                          Sinful Colours; Black on Black
