I went for a simpler look today. The theme for day 8 of the #31DC2016 challenge is metallic nails and while I had grand thoughts of a look that I still plan to do sometime in the future so will keep secret, I just didn’t have the time. I have used Layla Bubbly in Black […]

Violet Nails For Day 6 of #31DC2016

After much discussion of what colour violet really is, more blue or more pink and spreading all of my purple-ish polishes on the floor much to the confusion of my cats, and headed to wikipedia (because wiki answers everything) which says “Violet is the color of amethyst, lavender and beautyberries”. I have a Maybelline polish […]
When Colours Collide – Red, Purple & Black With No Stamping

I finally jumped on the When Colours Collide bandwagon in time for a no stamping challenge. I am not 100% in love with my look but I guess that is part of the challenge, doing things you would not usually do. I also could not decide what to do, so went with skittle nails and […]

Cuticle Care After Moving Day

I try my best to look after my nails and cuticles but in general, they tend towards dry and my nails break easily once past the tips of my fingers. Moving however, left my nails looking horrible. As in, there is no way I am swatching polishes or playing with my new stamping plates when […]

Bring Back The Bees Nail Art – Mani Monday

I have been meaning to try the bee themed stamp from my MoYou London The Pro plate for ages and when I heard about Cheerio’s Bring Back The Bees campaign, it seemed like the perfect time. Image: @MarkCullen4 via LifeMadeDelious In case you haven’t noticed, Buzz, the Cheerios mascot, is missing from their latest packaging. Buzz is […]
Easy St. Patrick’s Day Nail Art Ideas

My Irish grandma would probably shudder at the cheesey-ness of Irish flags on my nails, she would let us wear green ribbons in our hair and remind us that we were Irish every day, not just on St. Patrick’s Day but any excuse for some nail art! I have three simple nail art looks for […]
Valentine’s Day Dotticure Nail Art

Not everyone has stamping tools and plates, but you can make a dotting tool out of various items around your home. This Valentine’s Day dotticure nail art can be done in any colour to match your outfit, but I went with sparkly versions of black, gold and red on a white background. While easy to […]
