Roses :)

Rose nail art featuring Models Own banana split

I love these nails! They were so easy to paint and have come out pretty well considering I haven't painted in months. I used Models Own banana split as a base and then my favourite pinks and greens by Essie for the roses.

They've come out nicely on my wrong hand too which I'm pretty happy about :)

This is a really nice yellow but the pigment isn't great so I had to paint numerous coats to start with. I hate wearing too many layers as I find it doesn't last as long as only 1 or 2. Hopefully these nails will be alright because as I've said numerous times I really like them :)

Another Aztec Mani


Pretty proud of these :)

I used a models own base and tried out the Barry M nail art pen for the first time. I really like the detail you can get with it, but the pen actually broke half was through so a little bit of this is freehand using a fine brush. Overall not that impressed with the pen, I have a black one to try out but if the result is similar I won't be buying another one for it to block and then become unusable the first time.

Aztec Triangles

After doing pretty poor Aztec nails at the start of the week I wanted to paint some better ones. Still stuck with the same pinky nude colour, but a different design with triangles. I much prefer this design. It's not perfect but far better and cleaner.

I really like the little hearts too

My left hand is a bit special, I'm a bit out of practice, not had time to paint in ages. I saw this design on pintrest with slightly different colours and thought it was amazing. I don't know who originally painted it to credit them but their design was so pretty I had to try it!

Nude Aztec

It's been stupidly long since I've painted my nails so these aren't great, I also used the wrong brush and no
dotting tool. Some of the nails came out nice, others look messy. I definitely want to do these again because they could be really nice

Valentines Nails


Feather effect blue and white polish with red hearts detail. 




The hearts are from a red glitter topcoat and were placed using a cocktail stick and sealed in place with topcoat. I really like the base on these nails, feather effect polish always looks really cool and I like the colours of these nails :)
