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.

Drunk Reindeer

These are possibly my favourite nails ever. My drunken Reindeer's. I got the idea from another blog but changed it around a bit. You have the fatty with a bow tie, a reindeer caught up in fairy lights, Rudolph with a bauble hanging from his antlers, a reindeer with his head in a holly bush and the little upside down reindeer.

I've taken photos of all the different stages of these nails, first I painted the bodies of the reindeer,

Then began adding details like ears

I loved painting these nails and will definitely be keeping them on as long as possible. Hope you like them too :)
