Sunday Night Nails #3


This is a really basic Aztec nail art that you don't need a lot of time for. I've used my trusted colour combination of turquoise, pink and white, but play around with the colours and see what works for you.

Step 1: Paint your base colour and leave to dry


Step 2: Use a black nail art pen to draw three equally spaced triangles from the base of the nail


Step 3: Use a white nail art pen to fill in the first and third spaces in between the black lines


Step 4: Use a pink nail art pen to draw a point above the top black line


Step 5: Use the black nail art pen to draw symmetrical dots all up the pink line to finish


Sunday Night Nails #2

It's been a busy couple of weeks! I spent 5 days in Birmingham at Clothes Show Live working with some fabulously talented bloggers and snapping up bargains when I had the time (which wasn't very often!). Because of that I haven't written a blog post in what feels like so long. If you're new to this blog then I promise I don't just put up a nail art post once a week! But here is this week's Sunday Night Nails - Christmas style!

First I applied True Blue by Models Own:



While the polish was still wet on my ring finger, I dipped it in blue caviar beads (I got mine from Topshop, but you can get similar ones from eBay):



I then used Kathleen Stripe & Sparkle by Andrea Fulerton Nail Boutique from Superdrug. I didn't use the sparkle, just the white polish to paint the snowflakes on each nail. I always find white nail pens to be a bit difficult to use, but this was much better than the Sally Hansen one which washed off in the shower!



It's nearly Christmas!! I've got one more week of work and then I'm going to my parents where I'll have more time to write some posts and get cracking on my New Years Resolution of blogging more.

Sunday Night Nails #1

Doing my nails has become a bit of a Sunday night ritual in my flat and I always Instagram them. It seemed a shame not to share them on here too so here's the first of (hopefully) many Sunday Night Nails installments.

First I applied Bubblegum by Models Own:



Then I added a layer of Hot Stuff by Models Own on top.

Possibly the girliest nails I've had in a while, something to brighten up the dark Wintery days!
